Donald Lamb is more like a lion when he goes into action on the gridiron for the New Bern High school Bears. Coach Sam Arbes is counting on Don for another year of heavy duty in the approaching Northeast ern campaign. Roy Tucker, who more than any one else deserves credit for New Bern’s Firemen’s Museum, was quite an athlete in his day. Later he had the pleasure of seeing his two youngsters, Roy, Jr., and Shir ley, achieve sports distinction in their own right. Roy’s wife, Alma, presides over the lunchroom at New Bern High, and comes pretty close to being the most-beloved person on the campus.

State's Oldest School house Could Double as a Museum With the state’s oldest school house vacant here during the sum mer months, we’ve been missing the boat for a long, long time. Why not convert it into a tempo rary School museum, when vaca tion rolls around, and fill it with historic items gathered from all over North Carolina? There must be countless things stored away in attics, or elsewhere, that could be included in the col lection.
