Cystic Fibrosis
Chairman Named
George W. Little, campaign
chairman for the
North Carolina Chapter,
Cystic Fibrosis Foundation,
has announced the following
area campaign chairpersons
for the "Kiss Your
Baby" Campaign in Warren
County:
Mrs. Gladys Bolton for the
Warren Plains area and the
Wise-Paschall 4-H Club for
the Wise area.
Campaign funds are used
to help support research and
care in children's lung-damaging
diseases such as
asthma with lung damage,
chronic bronchitis, bronchiectasis,
childhood emphysema,
and cystic fibrosis.
Of each CF dollar raised
82% is spent for the
programs of research, care,
education, and community
services.
The major symptom of
cystic fibrosis is a salty
taste of the skin, frequently
noticed by parents when
kissing their baby. CF is an
inherited and incurable
disease and can affect not
only the lungs but also the
digestive system. It is
believed that one in 20
persons are carriers of the
recessive CF gene. Approximately
60,000 North Carolinians
are carriers of this
gene. Fifty (50% ) percent of
CF patients now live to age
18.

Sir Walter Raleigh'* pipe [top one 1b eacloaed
cylinder] is one of tbe many artilacti that are now part of
the revised R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company tonr at its
Whitaker Park cigarette manufacturing plant In
Winston-Salem, N. C.
Sir Walter Raleigh's Pipe
Graces Tar Heel Museum
WINSTON-SALEM, N. C.—Sir Walter Raleigh's pipe,
the one he carried back to England over 475 years ago, is
one of the historical artifacts now on display in the
revised R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company tour at its
Whitaker Park cigarette manufacturing facility here.
The pipe is a souvenir of the first authentic introduction
of tobacco in England.
The pipe is just part of the memorabilia that has been
added to the popular tourist attraction. Artifacts, old
drawings and paintings, historic tobacco antiques and
audiovisual presentations including Camel Caravan
radio broadcasts, the Camel smoking billboard and
several of the first Winston and Salem television
commercials are also featured among the unique
displays which are now part of the free tour.
When Raleigh's fall came, simultaneously with the
weakening of Queen Elizabeth's power, he held the stem
of the pipe in his teeth as he mounted the scaffold.
It is said that he handed the pipe to Bishop Andrewes,
who administered the last sacrament of the church to
him and the goodly bishop passed the pipe to the Careuws
family of Beddington, England.
From this family it came into the possession of the
Glovers of Croydon, and afterwards to the Bryants of
Reigate, England. W. A. Bryant exhibited the relic at the
Guild Hall Museum in London almost a hundred years
ago. At that time a parchment was introduced authenticating
its history.
The pipe later became the property of Horace C.
Blundell, 10 Stilehall Parade, Chiswick, London. He
received it in the early 1900$ from his grandfather who
had married into the family of the Bryants.
Blundell then presented the pipe to R. J. Reynolds after
the company named its pipe tobacco Prince Albert.
The pipe is in a splendid state of preservation and is
made of Virginia maple wood. There is also a whistle cut
in the pipe, by which, it is said, Sir Walter Raleigh
summoned his servants.
