WATER BALLET? Perhaps these beginning swimmers at College of The Albemarle
might perform in a synchronized water show someday. Right now, however, they are
concerned with developing a proper stroke to help propel themselves through the water.

Winslow and Don Lee, COA’s library services department chairman, practice. Registration
is currently open for beginner, intermediate and advanced swimming courses during the

Green Lauds Efficiency Os Assembly
Lt. Gov. James C. Green
today commended the
members of this 1978
Session of the General
Assembly for administering
their legislative respon
sibilities in a period of only
13 days. Green particularly
recognized committee
chairmen and members for
their diligence in attending
to the budget and other
legislative matters brought
before them.
Great stated that “While
the primary responsibility
of this session was to deal
with a credit balance in the
general fund of $271.6-
million, North Carolina
legislators were asked to
consider important
measures such as the in
ventory tax credit, amend
ments to the open meetings
law and banking law, in
come tax check-off, and the
emotional issue of liquor-by
the-drink.
“The taxpayers of North
Carolina should be proud of
the dedication and hard
work of these represen
tatives,” said Green. “Many
long hours were spent by
them in an effort to com
plete their tasks in this two
week session.”
In discussing the state
budget, Lt. Gov. Green
commented, “It boils down
to the fact that it’s the
governor’s budget, as
recommended by the Ad
visory Budget Commission,
and the major items therein
reflect his emphases
capital expenditures
totaling $92-million and a 6
per cent increase in salaries
for State employees and
teachers.”
“I do believe, however,
i that when we in his state are
fortunate to experience a
credit balance at the end of
a fiscal year, all this money
i does not have to be spent.
Some funds ought to be
placed aside, a reserve for a
time when we are not so
| fortunate, or should be used
to reduce taxes.”
Lt. Gov. Green did point to
several major programs of
which he was supportive
and which were enacted or
expanded by the General
Assembly during this
session, particularly in the

Halifax Production Is ’All-New Show' _
HALIFAX - The third
season of the outdoor drama
“First for Freedom” opens
here with a new director,
new set, new script and new
songs.
“It’s an all-new show,”
said production manager
Peggy Phillips of Halifax.
“We are optimistic this will
be a very successful year,”
she said.
“A lot of work has gone
into preparation for ‘First
for Freedom’ this year and
all the indicators are this
will be as good a season as
1976 when the play opened,”
Mrs. Phillips projected.
The script was written by
MaxviUe Burt Williams of
Enfield, author of the
historical novel by the same
name. The script represents
a deviation from the
drama’s first two years in
that it climaxes with the
signing of the Halifax
resolves at the end of the
two-act play.
Director Del Lewis of
Greenville, associate
professor of drama and
speech at East Carolina
University, feels everything
will fold into place for the
Friday night opening. “The
cast has put in some long
hours in the past three
weeks of rehearsals, and by
Friday night things will
click.”
This is Lewis’ first out
door drama; however, he
has a long list of acting and
directing credits including
a role in the Broadway
production of “Fiddler on
the roof” and a movie role in
“Diary of a Mad
Housewife.”
Director Lewis, who has a
degree in choral music
conducting, has added his
touch to arrangements for
nine new songs added this
year by the playwright.
