Thacker^Bloniak
Mrs. Elizabeth Barringer Blon-
iak, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Charles Franklin Barringer of
Carthage, became the bride of
James Allen Thacker, son of
Mrs. Lena Hammer Thacker of
St. Louis, Missouri, and the late
John Wesley Thacker of High
Point, in a ceremony performed
Friday afternoon, Aug. 30 at 5
o’clock in the Duke University
Chapel, Durham, N. C. Only
members of the families and
close friends attended.
Rev. Emsley Paul Hamilton, of
the Duke Divinity School, for-
iner classmate of the bridegroom
officiated, using the double ring
ceremony. Wedding music was
rendered by W. P. Twaddell, or
ganist. The chapel was decorated
with palms, seven branch cath
edral candelabra holding burn
ing white tapers, and tall floor
baskets of white gladioli and
asters at either end of the prayer
bench. Tall lighted candles were
on the altar.
The bride, who entered the
chapel with her brother, Charles
F. Barringer, Jr. of Robbins, wore
an afternoon gown of bridal blue
faille, made with sweetheart
neckline, bracelet length sleeves
and fitted bodice joining a full
floor length skirt. Her small hat
of natural flowers and French
illusion matched her bridal bou
quet of sweetheart roses ahd
stephanotis showered with pink
ribbon streamers. She wore a
strand of pearls, gift of the bride
groom.
Miss Gene Thacker of Wash
ington, D. C. sister of the bride
groom, was maid of honor. She
wore a floor length afternoon
afternoon dress of pink corded
taffeta, with sweetheart neck
line, short tucked sleeves, fitted
bodice, with full tucked skirt.
She carried a cascade bouquet of
mixed summer flowers and wore
a halo of natural flowers in her
hair.
Frank Thacker of St Louis,

man. Ushers were, John W.
Thacker, of Greensboro, brother
of the bridegroom and George
W. Holmes, III, of Graham.
Mrs. Barringer, mother of the
bride, wore an aqua crepe dress,
with black accessories. Her cor
sage was of pink roses. The
groom’s mother, Mrs. Thacker,
wore navy blue crepe. Her cor
sage was of white roses.
Following the ceremony, the
bride’s parents entertained at a
U N Capital
That this section stands an ex
cellent chance of being selected
as the permanent home of the
United Nations if the committee
has to turn from the metropolitan
areas, seems a certainty to C. G.
Spencer, chairman of the commit
tee to prepare the brief to be
presented to the United Nations,
Naturally all the Sandhills is in
a state of anticipation at the pos
sibility. It certainly seems worth
a try, and the brief or folder set
ting forth the advantages of
Moore County are now well un
derway. 3
The committee to select the
permanent home of the United
Nations has asked this question,
‘‘How much displacement will
there be?” In answer, Mr. Spen
cer and his committee on Satur
day took panoeramic pictures of
six different parts of the county
where a site of 2,200 acres could
be obtained without any dis
placement at all!
The U N Committee first pre
ferred a site in or around New
York, and selected an area in
Westchester county, which is
probably the richest county in
the world. Due to the obstacles
encountered there and elsewhere
in the metropolitan areas, they
may have to turn to less densely
populated areas where there will
be less displacement.
“In case the committee does
not select a metropolitan area,
then we are definitely in the
running,” stated Mr. Spencer,
“because the committee has de
cided they want it on the eastern
shore.”
He has received letters from
a [number of people including
one from The Salisbury Post
congratulating him on the ef
forts being made to secure the
U N Capital for Moore County.
So many people in other coun
ties have encouraged him about
it as he has traveled around in
the past few days, he believes
that the other counties will get
behind us and help us advance
the cause. It will be a big thing
for North Carolina, and goes far
beyond being a mere county pro
ject.
We should have the co-opera
tion of every citizen in the state,”
says Mr. Spencer, whose argu
ments o\^er the advantages of
Moore County are convincing.
He says we are ideally located
midway between New York and
Florida, on the north-south trunk
lines of the railways, airways,
and highways. We are four hours
from New York, four hours from
Miami; and six hours from Chi
cago. We are near or midway
the main parts of entry on the
east coast, Jacksonville, Miami,
Norfolk, Baltimore, Philadelphia,
and New York. We are not on
the coast and therefore not so
vulnerable.
The climate is ideal, with an
average altitude of 600 ft., the
water excellent. We grow all the
known fruits and vegetables ex
cept the tropical ones, and are
only four hours from the source
of them. We are five hours from
the great cattle regions of the
mountains and four hours from
the greatest seafood areas of the
Atlantic Coast.
For fifty years we have been
trained to receive and entertain
distinguished visitors from all
over the world at Pinehurst and
Southern Pines. These are a few
of the reasons why he thinks
this section has an, excellent
chance.

‘Tm unhappy about this, folks...
??
Yes, the shortages of wire and trans
formers and poles and other line building
equipment have us in a strait jacket. You
see, when the war was over the manufac
turers of this equipment had practically
none of it in stock, and since that time they
have been able to make only partial ship
ments to the many power companies all
over the country who are anxious to build
additional Aines. Orders for material placed
by this Compaity months ago remain un
filled, and the materials we do get are
only fractional parts of what we need.
If you are one of our prospective cus
tomers who is waitii^ for a line to be
built to serve you, you may be becoming
impatient. As we said above, we are un
happy about the situation too. However,
you can be-sure that everything possible, is
being done to speed construction of all the
lines we have planned. Ihe lines will be
built just as soon as necessary materials
can be obtained, in the meantime, we
want you to know that Carolina Power
& Light Company understands your posi
tion and appreciates the i>atience with
which you have waited.
