Well, school started off with a
"bang” this year. The freshman class
lias a record enrollment. (For those
)nathematically inclined individuals,
there are twelve freshman home-
)'ooms with almost thirty students in
oach.)
The freshmen still don’t seem to
know where they're going and the
.seniors can’t seem to get there due
to the vast quantities of lost fresh
men. I hope we’ll be proud of our
new freshman class. They’re big so
they should work hard and do big
things.
They have already begun to get
into the swing of things with sports
and other activities. I won’t wish
them luck, because that won’t help;
what I will wish them is good study
habits.
I wish I had been an umbrella
peddler at the football game last Fri
day in Morehead City. The vivid fans
came anyway and the cheerleaders
cheered as well when wet as when
dry. I’m sorry we lost, but we love
the team anyway. It’s too bad the
elements don’t play favors.
Everyone has begun to work on
the publications — THE BRUIN
which is the annual, and the BEAR
CUB which is the newspaper. The
annual staff has been working dili
gently all summer. Although the
newspaper staff has just recently
been organized, they seem to be in
terested and I am certain they will
do a good job.
The main problem of both the
annual and the newspaper can be
said in one word, “money.” Both
have been undertaking the task of
selling adds to the merchants of
New Bern. It is unfortunate, indeed,
that many of the merchants aren’t
interested in or don’t care what be
comes of om’ publications.
The seniors think they’re impor
tant now, and, by the way they act,
I think they want everyone else to
think so too.

The damage caused by the fall
webworm has been especially se
vere this season. A large number
of forest and shade trees are at
tacked by this pest and the injury
caused is not only unsightly but
seriously interferes with normal
tree growth due to the destruction
of leaves which manufacture food
for the plant.
The tent caterpillar is sometimes
confused with the webworm but
it attacks plants earlier in the year.
Then, too, the tent caterpillar
builds its nest in the crotches of
limbs and leaves the nest to feed.
On the other hand, the webworm
envelopes its food supply in the
web.
It is too late now to do any
thing this season but you should
be prepared to cope with these
pests next year. Consult your coun
ty agent or vocational agricultural
teacher for control measures or
write the Department of Entomolo
gy, N. C. State college.
Now is a good time to seed your

lawn. We should give priority to
the use of certified seed and good
seed bed preparation. Have your
soil tested and correct soil reac
tion (pH) to satisfy the needs of
the kind of lawn you are building
—Bermuda, Bluegrass, Fescue. Be
sure to clear away roots, brick and
broken stones, and particles of
mortar. This is especially important
when making new lawns.
The^ top 2 or 3 inches ;of soil
should be your plant food supply
and should consist of the best soil
you can obtain. Well decomposed
compost worked into this layer
would be best.
The next 3 or 4 inches of the lay
er-on-layer idea should be compos
ed of good topsoil and should serve
as your moisture reserve.
The bottom layer of 4 or 5 inches
should serve as the drainage area
and should be composed of sub
soil or fill dirt which is porous
enough to prevent the formation
of wet areas in the lawn which will
give trouble until corrected.
This sounds like a lot of trouble,
doesn’t it? Well, it is, but I know
of no better method if you want
a lawn about which both you and
your neighbors can brag a little.
