PAGE TEN About 900 Attend FHA Rally Held In Edenton Saturday Kitty Campen Winner In Election For State Reporter One of the -largest rallies ever to be staged in Edenton took place Sat urday in the High School auditorium when the Future Homemakers of America of District 1 gathered for a day of fun and entertainment. Ap proximately 900 persons from 18 east ern counties attended the affair. Hos tesses were the Edenton chapter, as sisted by the Chowan and Perquim ans chapters, with Kathryn Woodard of Scotland Neck High School, FHA Parliamentarian, presiding. The opening ceremony was led by Kathryn Woodard, vice-president; Betty Casteloe of the Winterville chapter and Kitty Campen, of the Edenton chapter. Devotion was given by the Elizabeth City Chapter and John A. Holmes, Superintendent, ex tended the greeting. Following recog nition of guests, Miss Miriam Scott of Edenton, District Advisor, gave some beneficial suggestions on FHA Week. The guest speaker for the occasion, was North Carolina’s First Lady of Colonial History, Dr. Inglis Fletcher, who was introduced by Kitty Campen. Dr. Fletcher held her audience spell bound as she went in the Elizabethan background of North Carolina, stat ing that the year 1585 was considered the height of the golden age. She pointed out that although Sir Walter Raleigh got all the credit for the land ing of the first colony in America, it was actually Sir Richard Grenville who brought over the first expedition. “After Grenville returned to England for more men of the soil,” said Mrs. Fletcher, “Governor Ralph Lane was not the man for the Colony and a great deal of discontentment existed.” Grenville was by far a greater man,” she added. She toid of toe Colony's struggle for existence during their one year stay in America. Ann Byrd of Windsor, sang “My Hero” after which Kathryn Woodard gave an interesting report of her “Michigan Roundup.” Following an nouncements by Glen Twiddy, the group went to the Edenton armory where a delicious barbecue dinner was served by the ladies of the American Legion Auxiliary, with Mr 3. Paul Hol loman and Mrs. D. M. Reeves in charge. One of the highlights of the morn ing session was the campaign speech es by the various chapters seeking their favorite for State Reporter. Kitty Campen was elected, with Anne Timberlake of Woodland as first al ternate and Hazel Paul, second alter nate. Kitty, who will attend the Nat ional FHA Convention in Chicago, had as her campaign speaker her sister, Allison Campen, who appeared on the stage with a bow-tie midnight cat that kept insisting that his alley friends be called in for the fun. Another feature which drew con siderable applause during the after noon session was a talent show, “The Olde South,” with Sylvia Vaughan, as narrator and the following chap ters participating: Chocowinity, Au lander, Colerain, South Edgecombe, Tarboro, Weldon, Murfreesboro, Wil liamston, Woodland-Olney, Central, Winterville, Pantego, Robersonville, and Edenton. These youngsters pro vided good entertainment of tap danc ing, singing piano solos, skits and minuet. Donald Brant of Winterville was especially good in his pantamine of A1 Jolson singing “Mammy,” and Shirley Keeter of Edenton, who did a tap dance specialty with Margery Thigpen at the piano. The Dixie Land Jazz Band of Eden ton provided music for the occasion and for Betsy Duncan in. a superb ba ton twirling act. Chowan County Fair Begins Next Week (Continued from Page One) Os interest also to visitors will toe a wildlife exhibit which will include a bear, deer, rabbits, coon, squirrel, wild ducks, Canadian geese, quail, pheasants and doves.

The contest is sponsored by the Chowan Farmers Exchange and a great deal of interest has been aroused among both chil dren and adult groups. On Friday nigh} Chowan Tribe of Red Men are scheduled to “bum” a paleface. The Red Men have about completed arrangements for the fea ture, and all members of the tribe are urged to be on hand to take part. Town Starts Project For Paving Streets (Continued Prom Page One) J. George were spokesmen for the group and pointed out that due to the necessity for considerable work or replacement of seating facilities at Hicks Field, a plan for proper utili zation of the area presents one of the community’s most pressing needs. The Varsity Club, said the spokes men, saw little reason for spending money needlessly on repairing pres ent facilities, and in view of present conditions, the recreational area should be planned for joint year-round use by the school and community, and that a cooperative plan should be developed for the most effective use of the area. It is the purpose of the Varsity Club to secure some person who is expertly trained in laying out play grounds and recreational centers and provide a master plan to govern all future construction on the site, and also provide parking facilities. Town Councilmen were impressed with the idea and authorized the club to contact a planning expert in order to ascertain the cost in providing a master plan for Hicks Field. This will be done immediately, according to members of the club making up the delegation. A committee composed of Chief of Police George I. Dail, W. J. Yates and Graham Byrum submitted two propo sitions in order to alleviate the traffic problem on East King Street, one of which called for widening King Street six feet. The Councilmen adopted > the other proposition which will pro hibit parking on the south side of the street from Broad to Oakum Street. A 50-foot unloading zone will be pro vided on the North side of the street running east from Broad street. Fif teen feet will be allowed in front of the hotel for guests to load and un load and three spaces will be allowed for doctors. In this proposition the town lot next to the police station will be turned into a free parking lot. Kermit Layton appeared at the meeting in behalf of the Junior Cham ber of Commerce erecting street mark ers in Edenton. Mr' Layton stated that about- 75 of these markers were planned, which will be paid for by the Jaycees. They were granted permis sion to erect the. markers, with the aid of the Street Department. Mrs. J.L. Weller Will Conduct Art School (Continued from Page One) sponsored by the Virginia Federation of Garden Clubs. In this particular school Mrs. Weller studied period ar rangements. Several magazines have published articles written by Mrs. Weller. She is also the author of three books, “What Every Garden Club Member Should Know,” “Xmas Facts and Fan cies,” and “What Foliage Means to a Flower Arrangement.” She is kept busy teaching the thirty-six Garden Clubs of Norfolk and vicinity, as well as engagements out of the city and state. She also teaches private class es in floral art. Those who wish to make flower ar rangements are requested to bring their own flowers, containers, flower holders, and scissors. Mrs. Weller is a sister of Mrs. J. A. Powell of Edenton. Woman’s Club Plans For Coming Activities (Continued From Page One) Boyce and various committees were assigned work for the big party. Mrs. Ruth Vail Porter also called attention to the art exhibit in the Iredell House on November 9 and 10. Prizes will be awarded for primary, elementary, junior and senior high . chool exhibits.
