Page 10. yvest Craven-Hlghllqhtg, October 4,1984 State Stops ECU Continued from page 6 quarterback Darrell Speed eluded several State defenders for a 25 yard touchdown, sending the ECU contingent into a frenzy. The games next scoring drive started with State safety John McRorte picked off an errant speed pass and returned it to the ECU 17-yard line. Five plays later Esposito found tightened Jeff Brown in the right corner of the end zone for a 14-7 Pack lead. State added two field goals, one a 52-yarder to give the Wolfpack 20-7 halftime advantage. Foiiowing an exchange of punts in the second half, ECU started on a drive that wouid cut the State lead to just six points, an 80-yard drive, capped off with Reggie Branch coming over from two yards out. After another exchange of punts ECU again drove into state territory. The Pirates had a second and five from the State 40 when the game took a dramatic swing in States favor as the ECU quarterback had the bail stripped away from him on the Stae 44. State quickiy added the ciinching score as Taiiback Joe Greene covered 56 yards on two siittering open field runs. The touchdown coming on a play where Greene was hit in the backfield by an ECU Lineman then quickly reversed his field and scampered 36 yards down the Priate’s sideline for the games clinching score. For ECU it was a bitter defeat as the young Pirates piayed weil enough to win but just couid not come up with the big play when they needed it. The win was sweet for the Wolfpack but the celebration will be short as the Pack travels to Atlanta Saturday to face Georgia Tech, with wins over Alabama and Clemson to their credit. Flowers Selected For Scholarship Pictured left to right: Mrs. Ellis Mother, Vice-Pres. of Med. Auxiliary; Miss Debbie Flowers, scholarship recipient; Mrs. Robert Blair, past Pres, of Med. Aux.; and Mrs. Ronald Preston, past Vice-Pres. of Med. Aux. Miss Deborah Faye Flowers, second year Associate Degree Nursing student at Craven Community College, was recently awarded the Craven-Pamlico-Jones Medical Auxiliary Scholarship. The scholarship is for $400 and will assist Miss Flowers with her tuition and books. The scholarship program was established by the medical auxiliary in 1983 to enhance interest in nursing education and to increase the availability of skilled registered nurses in our community. Of particular concern was the auxiliary’s desire to insure that qualified students who were enroiied in the nursing curriculum at the College are not forced to withdraw because they iack the financiai resources to continue their education. Miss Flowers is a graduate of New Bern High Schooi and is a volunteer EMT for the Bridgeton Rescue Squad.

Bugs, Bugs, Bugs! • Continued from page 2 New Jersey once had mosquito probiems so severe that early explorers reported that the land was uninhabitable by humans. They solved the mosquito problem to a degree, but as it turns out, much of the area would have been better off under the control of the bugs than the petrochemical industry. But that’s another story. Throughout the southiand, there are dwellers of the swamps and river valleys and marshes who can assure you that the skeeters and greenheads thereabouts are only slightly less of a menace than 50,000 landing craft full of Commie invaders off of Cape Lookout. But if there are bug problems worse than what I’ve experienced in these parts, I’d just as soon take your word for it. I ain’t about to investigate. w Since It seems apparent that we humans are not going to eradicate flesh-eating insects, there is only one solution to the problem of how to enjoy a Carolina evening without losing a iot of blood to lower life forms. The screen porch is the answer. Perhaps the most disturbing by-product of the suburbanization of America is the proliferation of ranch-style houses without proper porches. \ The virtues of porch-sitting in generai are worthy of a separate essay. Suffice it to say here that until our dwellings come supplied with screened-in porches, as any proper abode should, life will be much the poorer. , Take if from a man with itchy ankles in a rented ranch house. If Only to Next Continued from page 2 says avoid those words and find two new words to remember—he suggested “Next Time’’—which means he’s going to push ahead, forget the past-he had learned from experience, so he won’t have to make the same old mistakes. Perhaps if I had taken Mr. Lineberry’s offer to get me a scholarship and go to college my life might have been entirely different from what it is; myfamiiy might be different. Do I have regrets? No,—maybe I have been more useful in th,ia,little town, with a limited education than if I had lived in a big city with a Phd. Degree. I have been happy with myfamiiy, friends and churches in Vanceboro. Also I was able to nurse my Mother in hejj^ickness, wait on Ed’s Father, and cousin Minnie fortwelve years, the Lord has blessed me. September 30, 1984.
