m 11?,.. ? j Pembroke Slate | University LADY ROBERTS HONORED FOB SAVING GOUL Lasry Bah si ts who is in his 10th year as a member at the campos police at PSU, has received a special certificate at commendation from the N.C. Association of Campus Law Enforcement Administra tors for his alertness in saving an 18-year-old girl's life at Pembroke August 5. Because of Roberts' exper tise through the training he received in an Emergency Medical Technicians' Course, he was able to provide assistance to Anita Dial, who graduated from Robeson Technical College's adult high school program on Aug. 5. RTC's graduation ceremonies were held that day at PSU's Performing Arts Center. Miss Dial was walking on a road near the Chicken Hut at Pembroke when a car hit her, knocking her into a ditch. Roberts and Ed Jacob*, also a PSU campus policeman, were quickly on the scene. Roberts examined the girl, saw that her mouth was stuffed with mucous, and clegred the air passage of ber mouth. This permitted her to breathe and saved her life. "If 1 had not received the proper emergency training and therefore known what to do, the girl might have died," said Roberts. He also treated her for shock and, by exami ning her, diagnosed that she was bleeding internally. This first aid proved invaluable during the critical minutes as they awaited the ambulance. Tlie girl later remained in Southeastern General Hospi tal's Intensive Care Unit for a week, said Roberts. The hurt that the Emergen cy Medical Technicians' Course was provided at PSU . last year through an instructor from ETC showed how much instruction comes back to bless one of RTC's own. Roberts took 120 classroom hours of such instruction from last September through De cember. "We have what we call a Trauma Kit with our campus police at PSU. It helps us to provide first aid immediately as we wait for the ambulan ce," said Roberts. Roberts, 36, is officially Record Supervisor for PSU's campus police. He is former president of the Pembroke Jaycees and a former regional Jayoee district director. Congratulations, Larry, for a job well done. HERTINE PRINE i 46 YEARS OF SERVICE Mrs. Berttae Prtne, who has been secretary of every president or jchancellor at PSU, is in hei 40th year of being the No. 1 secretary of the University. A cookout honoring her was hosted by Chancellor and Mrs. Paul Gtvens Wednesday at the Chancellor's Residence where a cake was baked for her and she received a gift. No one could be more worthy because she has the most years of any active person at PSU. Call it charm. Call it graciousoess. Call it what you want. Mrs. Prine has it. As we wrote 12 years ago in a special article about her, Bertine Prine "has that magic touch of making people like her instantly." In all of the years I've worked ?t PSU (14 years), I've MM, never seen her lose her kind, gentle demeanor. She is never so much in a hurry or caught up in his work she fails to stand up in greeting people and asking them about their families.Many times she works after hours to get caught up on work that she doesn't have time to do during normal working hours because of greeting people. But she wouldn't have it any other way. "I just like people," she skys. "I'm interested in them." It makes no difference whom she meets--the Gover nor on down. Mrs. Prine is the picture of poise, of hospital ity. She is a tremendous asset to the image of PSU. Mrs. Bertine Prine is one in a million.

The article waa written immetR ately after hla death by Hribert Prevatte and appear ed In the Robeaonian. by Hubert Prevatte Pembroke-Rev. and Mrs. T. M. Swett were recently advis ed by military authorities of the death of their son, 1st Lieutenant James F. Swett on Nov. 8th, 1942, while in line of duty with the United States Army Ferrying command. Lieut. Swett's life can be looked upon with praise and honor to himself, his family, the Indian race and his country, for his accomplish ments have been many and outstanding. After finishing high school with honors as validictorian of his class, he attended his native Pembroke State Coll ege. His scholastic attain ments won for him later a scholarship at the University of Virginia, where he gradu ated in June 1940, securing ,his B.S. degree, akrag with ?"ch notable colleagues as. Franklin D. Roosevelt and others. After taking up educational work as teacher of math and French at the Pembroke High School, he decided that his services would be more useful to the U.S. Army Air Corps and enlisted as a flying cadet March 16, 1941. James advanced rapidly and with special mention by his superior officers through the varied training assign ments until he had reached the rating of 1st lieutenant and was soon to have been made a captain. As a boy James seized every available opportunity to make good, and as a man, he did make good for he paid the supreme sacrifice: that of giving his life in order that we, his comrades, and our children after us, the Ameri can people, might have last ing peace, freedom and life. The loss of this promising youngman has been felt much by all who knew him and of course most by his immediate family. We, the community at large, extend to his folks, his wife, father, and specially his mother, our most tender sympathy. i "CUT 'N STRAIN" The One Piece Cutting Board E Colander That Fit?
