PEOPLE IN THENEW8...
Betty Oxendine Man
gum, 47, has been named the
News aad Observer's "TVr
Heel of the Week." She was
given the honor in the Feb. 2
issue of the prestigious, state
wide newspaper.
She is the daughter of
Professor and Mrs. Clifton
Oxervdine. Professor Oxen
dine is a professor-emeritus of
PSU, and was a long-time
member of the history de
partment before retiring.
Now living in Wake County,
Betty is the director of Indian
Education for the state de
partment of instruction. It is a
well deserved honor, and we
?re happy for Betty and her
family.
Lord willing, and THE
News sad Observer agrees,
we'11 reprint the article in full
in next week's issue of tbe
Cars Has hdiaa Voice. Betty
follows Dr. English E. Jones,
Lew Barton, James Hunt
(formerly president of Lum
bee Bank) as Indians who
have been honored as "Tar
Heel of the Week."
Aim) the county commissi
oners made if official Monday
night, and named Everett
Davis as chairman of the
Robeson County Extension
Service. Davis. 41, has a
tough act to followin replacing
John Richardson who has
gone on to another position
with the extension service in
Haleigh. But Davis seems to
be the man for the job, and
has made a lot of friends in
Robeson County.
And my buddy. John "Chi
co" Carter, III has filed ss a
candidate in the May prima
ries for the Cumberland
County Board of Commissi
oners.
Carter is assistant director
of institutional advancement
at PSU. He has a lot of
energy, and alot of merit he
has Bled as a Republican
candidate. It ought to be
interesting, and I wish him
well. He's a very nice guy,
and has the credentials to be
agood public servant
CATCHING UPWrra TOE
KIWANB REPORTS...
I blew it Dr. Ken Johnson,
f
who is the reporter (or the
Pembroke Kiwanis Club, re
cently invited me to be his
guest st s meeting of the
Kiwsnis Club. Dr. Johnson
chaired the program, one thai
was interesting and paid tri
bute to baseball. Some of his
guests were Dwight Lowry,
former major leaguer with the
Detroit Tigers, Harold Ellen,
baseball coach at Pembroke
State, Ronnie Chavia, coach at
West Robeson, and a number
of local coaches affiliated with
little league baseball.
It was an interesting pro
gram, and was well received
by the membership. The
problem is...I was supposed
to report the meeting for Dr.
Johnson. Well, better late
than never. Dr. Johnson is my
hero, and I will try to do better
in the future.

Been snafued, lately?
People might not realize it, but a lot of our I
prices actually beat the chains. Chain competi- II
tion usually run "20 leaders." That's it! Theyr
discount the price of only 20 lead items to "snafu"
the unsuspecting but price-conscious shopper.
Have you been snafued, lately?
I invite you to look at the whole drug store
picture. Twenty low prices do not a drug store
make. Look for consistent and fair prices across
the board.
We price our products for rapid sale. That's the
way we like it, because we know that's the way you
W" It. too.!
