KIWANIS, AIR FORCE ARE SPONSORS
400 Moore Youngsters Take Part
In National Kids’ Day Program
I
National Kids’ Day, sponsored
by th e TJSAF Air-Ground Opera
tions School and the Sandhills Ki-
wanis Club, was conducted Sat
urday for Moore County children
eight through 16 years of age.
Kids’ Day observances over the
nation this year placed emphasis
on “the Air Force in its communi
ty partnership role.” Events of
the day were planned by the Ki-
wanis Club’s committee, headed
by Lament Brown, and Major Ed
ward L. Kitchens, project officer
representing Brig. 'Gen. D. W.
Jenkins, commnadant of the Air-
Ground Operations School.
An'‘estimated 400 children from
11 schools of the county gathered
at Weaver Auditorium for a
greeting, a short film on jet air
craft, and snacks. A convoy of
busses and vehicles transported
■ them to and from Pope Air Force
Base where an estimated crowd
of 6,000. from the surrounding
area viewed many aircraft and
'exhibits on display. The exhibits
iwere designed to foster public
[acceptance of the Air Force as
I the symbol of air power and es-
Itablish the Air Force as an entity
by relating the missions of com
mands and bases.
I “By developing complete coop-
i eration and understanding be-
I tween personnel of the Air Force
and civilian communities all of us
help to improve community rela
tions and develop mutual re
spect,” an Air Force spokesman
explained.
“By informing members of the
.community on a person-to-person
basis, the Air Force provides a
better understanding, within se
curity and propriety limitations,
of the individual base and the
USAF—its people, policies, mis-
,sions, capabilities and problems,”
it was pointed out. I

“Now read this—now read this^
Here is a tremendously entertain
ing comedy-drama that will have
the moviegoers rocking with
laughter in theatres across the na
tion for a long time to come. Be
sides the robust humor and splen
did performances, the picture also
impresses through the magnitude
of its presentation in Cinema-
Scope and excellent color photog
raphy. Team work, both in acting
and production, has produced a
whizz of a show.”
The foregoing is a verbatim
“quote” from a well-known critic
after viewing “Mr. Roberts” at its
world premiere.
Coming to the Carolina for the

PILOT ADVERTISING PAYS
moons.
Henry Fonda, recreating his
original title role, is just about
perfect (this will be a perform
ance to be remembered when Os
car time rolls around). The fine
supporting cast includes James
Cagney,' WilUam Powell and
Jack Lemmon, all impressive.
The latter, especially, is terrific
as goldbricking Ensign Pulver.
This film is loaded with audience
appeal. The story is warm, touch
ing and believable, and' is filled
with the kind of earthy, uproar-
ous humor that will infect every
one. Acclaimed one of the out
standing stage^ hits in Broadway
history, it is now even greater,
even funnier on the screen. '
On account of the extra running:
time of “Mr. Roberts” (123 min-1
utes) it will be necessary to set
the second Sunday night showing
back to 9:20.
