Indians Topple
EdentonTeamsj
By BILL GOODWIN
The Perquimans Indians came
from a five-point half time
deficit to defeat the Edenton
Aces in a .thrilling overtime
game at Hertford 45-44.
An improved defense that al
most completely kept the Aces
out of the middle helped the In
dians to go ahead in the final
quarter. Only a long jump-shot
by Billy Cook Griffin with about
40 seconds to go kept the Aces
in the game and the overtime.
But the Aces failed to find
the sharp set shooting ability
they had in, the final 16 minutes.
Only Billy Wilkins could manage
to hit. for Edenton in the final
quarter, and that wasn’t quite
enough. Whitey Matthews for
the Indians matched Billy’s lone
goal and Bevi Tucker sank a
free throw to Ice the cake.
The Aces took a 13-8 first
quarter lead as they sank all
grades of shots. They pushed the
score to 23-18 at the half. Butj
that Indian defense held them
down and the Perquimans bunch
third quarter, 37-35. From there
came within two points at the
they went ahead 42-40 when
Griffin sank his last shot to tie
it up.
Griffin led the Aces in scor
ing with 18 points. Jack Bunch
chipped with 7, Henry Overton
6, Elton Bass 5, and Billy Wil
kins and Donald Roche each.
Big Dave Burton led the In
dians with 13 points and Johnny
Miller was right behind with 12.
The girls’ game turned into an
outright massacre and the Per
quimans fans lapped it up. The
Acelets could find no defense
against tall Whitla McGoogan as
she stood under the basket and
poured in 40 points. Her team
mates put 20 more in the bag
as the Acelets went down to de
feat 60-48.
But it was actually closer than
the score indicates. The Acelets
trailed 18-17 at the end of the
first quarter. They managed to
stay within three points 31-28 at
the half. The third quarter end
ed 48-43 as the Acelets kept
hitting through a tough Per
quimans defense. Then things
changed as the Acelets got shook
up. Their shots wouldn’t fall
and most of the passes went
astray.
Imogene Rogerson helped a
lot to keep Edenton in conten
tion with 27 points. Linda Spen
cer dropped in 16 markers. Ruth
Stokley got 4 and Sarah Relfe
Smith scored one.
Both of the referees agreed
that the boys’ game was one of
tfl€ ybest' they had ever called.
But oiw Gt the Aces remarked,
“You wait, we’re Agoing to
every other game wC play, in
cluding the one with Williamston
and Gaylord Perry.”

would cost an estimated $48,-
000,000, it was considered an ad
vantageous selection for the par
tial implementation of these re
quired reductions, and plans for
use by Navy units following re
location of the Marines were
cancelled.
Following disestablishment, the
station will be declared excess
to the peacetime needs of the
Navy for disposal as airport
property, subject to appropriate
right to recapture for mobiliza
tion purposes. However, should
the City of Edenton • desire to
make some non-airport use of
the property such as civic or
industrial development which
would render it unfit for mo
bilization but which would be of
benefit to the community, the
Navy would then be willing to
dispose of the property without
restriction or right of recapture.
Units assigned to Edenton
comprise Marine Air Group 14.
| They will be transferred intact
with associated aircraft and
equipment to other Marine Corps
activities. Aircraft assigned are
as follows: 24 A4D, 29 AD,
2 R4D and 2 TV.
Military personnel involved
number 1,294. Air Group per
sonnel will be transferred with
their respective units. Station
personnel and those due for
normal transfer will be reas
signed in accordance with the
needs of the service by the Com
mandant of the Marine Corps
and the Chief of Navy Personnel
l as appropriate. The current
policy in reassigning personnel
is tc give 90 days notice
wherever possible.
' | Civilian personnel affected
(number 138. However, many
possess civil service ratings
which may affect their employ
ment at another government ac
tivity. They will be transferred
or released in accordance with
naval civilian personnel in
structions, Civil Service Com
mission regulations, and current
Bureau of Aeronautics direc
tives.
There will be no public sale
; of equipment or other articles
conducted by the Navy. The
General Services Administration
is responsible for these trans
actions following the determina
( tion that such equipment is ex
. cess to the needs of the govern
. ment.
i The Navy owns about 3,283
; acres of land at Edenton and has
a total investment of about sl3,
1 000,000 in the station,
f The annual cost of operation
• for NAAS, Edenton. is approxi
i mately SBIO,OOO, not including
js, aviation gasoline funds. The an
■ ituai civilian payroll is approxi
i mately $553,000 and is included
in the above operatioh cast.' The
.annual military payitoll .tr ap
Iproximately .5 million dollars.
| The cost of operating Edenton
from July 1, 1958* through March
' 31, 1959, which is the first three
1 quarters of the fiscal year 1959,
’ is estimated at SBOO,OOO including
' the cost of closing.
The average expense in moving
. personnel from one station to an
s other for the entire Navy is
$531.82 for each enlisted trans
feree and $630.74 for each offi
cer. However, since the tour of
, duty for Marine personnel is ap
proximately two years, some fifty
. percent of all personnel would
be subject to transfer in any
event sometime during the fiscal
year. This fact, coupled with
| the fact that normal replacement
, personnel Will not be ordered in.
■ to Edenton, greatly reduces this
/expense.

Modern rehabilitation, accord
ing to Mr. Ridgeway, depends on
the team approach-doctors, nurs
es, medical social workers, physi
cal therapists, occupational thera
pists and others working together
to help solve the patient’s prob
lems.
To bolster the outlook for those
handicapped by polio and other
crippling diseases in Chowan
County, Mr. Ridgeway urged all
residents to make generous con
tributions to the March of Dimes
fund drive, which opened Janu
ary 2.
The professional education pro
gram of the March of Dimes is
the largest of any voluntary
health agency, Ridgeway explain
ed. Already it has supported in
short and long term training near
ly 7,000 men and women. A total
of $28,900,000 in March of Dimes
funds has been invested in this
program.
“Without this professional edu
cation program there might not
have been a Salk vaccine,” Mr.
Ridgeway, said. “Fa-ly in his ca
reer Jonas E. Salk received a fel
lowship made possible by the Na
tional Foundation. . Years later,
the Foundation financed Mr.

met in a combined meeting held
Friday evening, January 3 at Nor

uary 20 of the well known Red
Comb poultry and Pioneer dairy,
