weeks. (Pilot photo)
Vocational Day
Program Attracts
500 Students
More than 500 students, both
seniors and juniors, came to
Southern Pines Tuesday for the
annual Sandhill Kiwanis Club
vocational day program and, ac
cording to R. F. Hoke Pollock,
chairman, it was one of the most
successful ever held.
The students met in Weaver
Auditorium at 9:30 for a message
of welcome from A. C. Dawson,
superintendent of the Southern
Pines school system, and heard
the program explained.
Appearing on the program
were Dr. Cheves Ligon, minis
ter of Brownson Presbyterian
Church; H. Lee Thomas, super
intendent of the Moore County
school system: T. Roy Phillips, a
member of the county school
board and outgoing president of
the Kiwanis Club; Pollock; and
Thomas Howerton, administrator
of Moore Memorial Hospital.
The students were then dis
patched to a variety of vocational
counselling sessions conducted by
various professional and business
people in the area, and met with
college representatives to talk
over requirements for further
schooling.
Some 21 colleges had represen
tatives present and most of the
armed forces were represented.
Teachers from the various
pchools accbmpanied their stu
dents to the program.

The driver training instructor
described the classroom and road
work, designed to develop safe
ty habits. He said that the sav
ings the program might bring, in
human life could not be evalu

to show the considerably better
rates granted for liability and
collision insurance on cars driv
en by young people under age 25
years of age who have completed
driver training courses. [
‘Tt is a proven fact,” he said,
“that boys and girls with driv/er
education training have an acci
dent record as much as 50 per
cent lower than the average.”

Kitchiu Says L^w
Officers Poorly
Paid In Talk Here
Congressman A. Paul Kitchin,
an agent of the Federal Bureau
of Investigation before he decid
ed to 'enter politics, told members
of the Moore County, Law En
forcement Officers, Association
Tuesday night that their jobs
were an integral part of the court
system, sharing responsibility for
administration of justice with
judges of the highest courts in
the land. -
Congresman Kitchin paid tri
bute to the officers, calling them
“the most underpaid group in this
country” while at the same time
possessing a tremendous load of
responsibility.
He also asked the wives of the
officers to have “understanding
and sympathy for your husbands,
with all the loving care, patience
and tolerance you can bestow.”
The officers were having their
annual banquet and ladies night
program at the Southern Pines
Country Club. About 90 people
were present.
A. F. Dees, deputy sheriff, pre
sided and W. Lament Brown, so
licitor of the Moore Recorder’s
Court, was master of ceremonies.
Among the guests were Judge
Hubert Olive, here to conduct a
term of criminal court, and mem
bers of newspaper staffs from
.’ost of the county’s papers.
jPinner music was played by a
ree-piece orchestra and enter-
jnment was offered by Pat
Tames of Southern Pines. Floiw-
:s for the speakers table were
fntributed by Mrs. Buny Har-
igton of the Southland Hotel.

Prior to the selection of the
All-Star squad, in which nomina
tions were made ' by individual
coaches, the conferenc.e officials
heard from L. J. (Hap) Perry, ex
ecutive director of the North
Carolina High School Athletic
Association. Mr. Perry, who has
been in that job since 1949, des
cribed a new classification set-up
high schools in the state will un
dergo in the near future.
Under the new, system schools
would fall into four classifications
A, AA, AAA, and AAAA. 'The
last classification would be crea
ted anew and would consist of
schools with enrollments (in the
10th, 11th and 12th grades) in ex
cess of 600 students.
Other classifications are as fol
lows; A, up to 150 students; AA,
150 to 350 students; and AAA,
300 to 600.
Schools would have a leeway
of 50 students in deciding which
classification to fall in, and any
school that transports as many as
65 per cent of the students may
play athletics in one classification
below what they normally would
be in.
Though no vote was taken it
was the general feeling of those
present that the Cape Fear Con
ference would continue in the A
classification.
Following the discussion tro
phies w'ere awarded to the con
ference champions and runners-
up.
Coach Leonard received the
championship trophy on behalf
Facing their stiffest opposition'
to date this season, the Blue
Knights rolled to a 14-0 decision
over Mount Olive last Friday
night, moving one step nearer to
the state championship.
The game, played on the Mount
Olive field, was probably the best
the Knights have played aU sea
son. Certainly it was the hardest.
They won by putting up a tight
defense when it was needed,
capitalizing on Mount Olive mis
takes, and a stout determination
to make this, their second year
in the 11-man ranks, a inemorable
one.
Bob McIntosh, the hard running
fullback, yvas the workhorse, of
the evening. Called on about three
times out of every five for carry
ing the ball, he rolled up an irn-
pressive amount of yardage in
what fans said was the best game'
he has ever played.
The Knights scored just before
the first half ended on an end
zone pass from Jimmy Carter to
Steve Smith. It marked the third
time the Knights had been with
in scoring distance, twice from
the five yard line.
Opening up the second half
Vann May, the extremely capable
Mount Olive fulback, moved into
Southern Pines territory on the
opening play, moving to the 37
yard line. After being stopped
once by Smith and Caldwell on
the 23, May moved to the 15 on
the next play where it was fourth
down and two yards to go. Two
plays later he broke through to
the Southern Pines five where
he was stopped by Richard Lock-
ey and McIntosh.
On fourth down, with the ball
resting on the three yard line,
the Southern Pines line held as
fleet Jimmy/Mease tried to ease
through tackle.
The Knights scored again in
the opening minutes of the fourth
period when Bobby 'Watkins,
starting from the four yard line,
scoot;ed around his left end, faked
two defenders out of position,
and went into the end zone stand
ing up. McIntosh, as he had done
after the first touchdown, bulled
over the middle for the point.
Outstanding for the Knights
were Robert Woodruff, Everett
Cushman, McIntosh, Watkins and
Carter in the backfield, and
Smith, Lockey, Jack McDonald,
dations were not acted upon fav
orably.
“While the proposal was made
in good faith,” Mr. Brown said,
“it was also made with the un
derstanding that it depended on
many other things. Actually, a
county circuit, or district court,
would not interfere with this
court because this court would be
come a part of it.”
Under the proposal made to
the County Commissioners by W.
D. Sabiston, county bar associa
tion president, one court would
be established in the county and
it would sit in Carthage one or
two days, as required. Southern
Pines one day, and Aberdeen one
day. It would also convene in
Robbins whenever the need be
came evidept.
The judge and solicitor of the
court would be full time officials
and travel to each town.
Aberdeen and Carthage both
have Recorder’s Courts at pres
ent, Aberdeen’s sitting on Friday
and Carthage’s, which has a coun
ty-wide jurisdiction, sitting on
Monday.
There was only one objection
raised at the public hearing. W.
Harry Fullenwider, who has ad
vocated the establishment of a
court here for many years, sug-
BEAUTIFICATION
(Continued from page 11
with the beautification of the
Parkway).
Plans for the planting have
been completely outlined, Mrs.
Gilmore said, and are now on file
in the town offices. Bids on the
work have been invited from lo
cal landscape firms.
She estimated that approxi-^
matel'y half of the $3,700 aivail-
able will be spent on labor and
fertilizer. Native trees and shrubs
will be planted, she said, empha
sizing that “nothing exotic” is
contemplated. Most of the work
will be done near the Pennsyl
vania Avenue and Morganton
Road interchanges.
The committee, she added, had
conferred with William Phelps,
state landscape engineer, before
making its plans. Some of the
planting will replace State-plant
ed shrubs or trees that have died.
The Council directed that a let
ter of appreciation Be sent to the
committee.

The game, according to Mount

est ever played on theif field.
Only 30 yards in penalties were
meted out during the night, and
only one of those was for more
than five yards.
A crowd estin^fited at 2500 atten
ded the game, about 300 of them
from Southern Pines. Cheerlead
ers and some of the students and
parents arrived a little early and
staged a pep rally. A 15-car cara
van brought most of them.

“I believe it should be consid
erably more,” he said, “to insure
the attraction of the best possible
men for the job.”
His suggestion was seconded
by several citizens attending the
meeting but the Council did not
look on it favorably.
“We cannot foretell with any
accuracy what the performance of
the court will be,” Councilman
Robert Ewing said, “and I be
lieve we would be wise to wait
until we can before we consider
raising the amount of salary the
officials will receive.”
The clerk of the court will be
the clerk of the town, a job pres
ently filled by Mrs. Margaret
Mattocks. All records will be kept
in Southern Pines.
A court similar to the one es
tablished this week was in exis
tence in Southern Pines in the
1920’s, but was short-lived.

O. D. Wallace of Carthage, foot
ball coach in the high school there,
was a guest at the meeting and
reported there was a possibility
his school would join the 11-man
ranks next year. “Our county
neighbors have gone 11-man,” he
said, “and, because of the size qf
our school, I think there is 'a
good possibility we wiU apply for
admission to the conference next
year.”
He said that a final decision
would probably be made by the
Carthage school board before
January.
Members of the All-Star squad
will be guests of honor at the
conference’s January meeting in
St. Pauls.

was in Mt. Hope Cemetery.
Mr. Perkinson, who was an
engineer, was bom in Woodstock,
Georgia. Previous to coming to
Southern Pines, he had worked
in the Geodetic Survey Bureau in
Washington, D. C.
On coming here, the deefeased
went into the field of general
contracting, working originally as
superintendent under J. R. Mc
Pherson, contractor for the archi
tect Aymar Embury. In this po
sition he was active in the build
ing of the Harry Vale home, the
Highland Pines Inn and cottages,
Weymouth, home of James Boyd,
the Country Club, the Mudgett
Building and many other town
edifices. |
.Though handicapped in later i
years from illness, Mr. Perkinson ^
had lately seemed well and qheer-
ful, conversing with old friends
along Broad Street only a day or
two before his death.
Surviving are his wife, the for
mer Louise Whitaker of Hender
sonville; one daughter, Mrs. Bur
ton Q. Perham of Southern Pines;
three grandchildren; two brothers,

Also, the officers had to return
to Carthage to appear when the
cases were called for trial and
frequently it left the town with- I
out adequate police protection. %
Financially, it cost the town
thousands of dollars each year in
gasoline and car use for the trips.
Presumably, those funds will not
be spent now and the town will
effect a great savings. Also, it
was pointed out, the town’s new
jail will soon be in use.
Asked if the court would con
flict with establishment of dis
trict courts as proposed by th^
Spencer Bell Committee, Mr.
Brown said that, should the pro
posals be adopted by the General.
Assembly, the local court would
be abolished.
He also commented on a recent
informal proposal made to the
Board of County Commissioners
by the Bar Association that a
study should be made of the ad- |
visability of establishing a circuit,
