Student Lounge
The student government held a
meeting, last Thursday in the stu
dent lounge concerning methods
which would be adopted to main
tain the student lounge. Unfor
tunately, the senior boys who
were originally responsible did
not keep the lounge as it was sup
posed to be kept.
Four committees w.sre formed
with each committee having sev
en members. The plan is to rotate
the committee each week. One
will b.3 responsible for closing and
the other will be responsible for
maintaining a bulletin hoard in
the lounge. Since there are four
committees and two work at a
time, each committee works for
two weeks, rests two and then
works two more. The lounge
will reopen next Monday morn
ing.
The Lance staff sent in the
greater part of the annual copy
Monday night, just making the
deadline. The staff has worked
hard and they believe that the
student body will enjoy the an
nual this year more than any. The
Lance is extremely different and
very interesting. The editor this
year is Miss Cathie Sandstrom.
Appearance
Tuesday and Wednesday the
boys all wore coats and ties to
help the campaign for good ap
pearance week. The stress this
week concerns looking nice, good
grooming, and general care of
hne’s personal appearance.
Operetta
The Junior High is getting
ready for its operetta which will
be held on the nights of Friday
and Saturday of this week. The
operetta is “Amahl and the Night
Visitors.” This is a delightful
Christmas story which will please
all who see it.
Harrington Speaks
Yesterday morning James Har
rington, who is the commander
of the National Guard unit in
Southern Pines, spoke to the stu
dent body about radiation, fall
out shelters and nuclear weapons
effects. He used a visual aid pro
jector which showed the “before
and after” of Hiroshima, Japan.
He explained the effects of radia
tion upon plants and animals as
well as humans. After he gave a
talk which lasted one hour, the
student body asked a multitude
of questions. Mr. Harrington an
swered such questions as “What
ar.3 the effects of radiation on
plants? “What is fallout?” “How
effective are shelters?” and “What
are the units by which radiation
is measured?”
Survey
In next week’s column I hope
to have the results of a new sur
vey dealing with the shelter and
fallout problem.

Rescue Squad at
Robbins Seeking
Change in Status
Appearing before the board of
county commissioners at Carth
age Monday, William Stutts and
Colin Cheek, two members of the
25-man Robbins Rescue Squad,
asked the board to cooperate in
making the squad a county-wide
operation, with units in other
cftmmunities and with the county
paying liability and workmen’s
compensation insurance for the
unit. ^
Stutts told the commissioners
that under the unit’s present in
surance regulation, it is limited to
operations within three miles of
Robbins. The squad was formed
about a year ago, sponsored by
the Woodmen of the World Lodge
at Robbins. Its members train
regularly in rescue operations of
all types and the squad has two
fully equipped power units,
Stutts told the board. He said
other communities had shown in
terest in forming rescue squads..
The commissioners called in a
Carthage insurance agent to in
quire about rates and asked him
to confer with members of the
Robbins squad and report back
to the board. No report came in
before the end of the day’s ses
sion, but the commissioners seem
ed inclined to give their cooper
ation as requested.
Allegations of
Soldier Denied
By Mayor Ruggles
An answer was filed November
30 in the $50,000 damage suit in
stituted in Moore County Superi
or Court by Richard Alan Ehr
lich, a member of the Special
Forces of Fort Bragg, against
John S. Ruggles, local real estate
man and mayor of Southern
Pines.
In the suit, filed in October,
Ehrlich claimed mental anguish,
embarrassment and humiliation
resulting from an alleged assault
on him and alleged accusations
made by the defendant in evict
ing the soldier from a house Ehr
lich said he had rented.
In his answer, Ruggles denies
having assaulted the soldier or
of having accused him of “felon
ies and high crimes” as charged.
He admits having had the locks
changed, and of ordering Ehrlich
and friends who were with him
out of the house the night of
October 3, but says he did so be
cause Ehrlich had breached the
rental contract, had failed to pay
the rent October 1 as agreed and
was considered an undesirable
tenant.
The answer says that the rental
agreement was made on Ehrlich’s
representation that he was to be
married September 15 and would
occupy the house as of October 1
with his bride, mentioning no
other tenants or sublessors.. On
no other conditions, the defendant
claims, would he have rented a
house to an enlisted rhan. How
ever, no bride appeared, says the
answer, and before and after Oc
tober 1 there were others seen in
occupancy and the house had
been found in disarray. On one oc
casion, a “barefooted girl” found
there had claimed she was from
the telephone company; on anoth
er, a soldier and a girl came from
upstairs, and on the night of the
eviction, several soldiers were in
side, according to the Ruggles an
swer. Evidences of misconduct
were cited.
The defendant asks dismissal of
the suit, praying the court to let
him “go hence without day,”
recovering his costs.
