There was standing room only in
the Ratcliffe- Cove Community
Center last Thursday night as the
standard bearers for East Pigeon
and the hosts clashed in an inter
community debate and spelling
bee. '
The Ratcliffe Cove word heavers
took both ends of the double-header,
but at the finish the East PUreon
heads were unbowed, though
bloodied.
The debate wit oy a unanimous
3-0 decision of the judges to Rat
cliffe' Cove spokesman Charlie
Francis who had taken the affirm
ative side of the subject: resolved,
that the County Home should be
abolished. ,
Eat he won only after a stub
born battle from Bob Brown, the
East Pigeon champion.
Francis laid down a barrage of
statistics to support his arguments,
all of which boiled down to the
effect that the county's annual ap
propriations for the poor and eld
erly were sufficient to take care of
the current 15 Inmates if the home
should be abolished.
He argued that the home, locat
ed on some 133 acres of farm land
last year gave a return of less than
$600. which is, he continued, out of
proportion to the expenses reguir
ed for its maintenance and the
maintenance of the people in it
Brown made his assault against
this idea from a humanitarian tack,
pleading that elderly folks should
not be turned out of the refuge the
county already owns. He also de
clared that the home's land could
be made more productive by the
use of the right tools.
The debate resolved Into a two'
man agrument when the second
man oi the East Pigeon team was
unable to appear.
The affirmative and negative
sides, also, were reversed just 'be
fore the opening bell. But that did
not phase the Ratcliffe Cove rep
resentative, who said he had taken
the pains to prepare arguments on
both sides of the issue.
The spelling bee went hot and
heavy before one side lost a rep
resentative. Then the survivors
deftly spelled through ail increase
lngly difficult list of 100 words be
fore the field narrowed doWn to
Mrs. Polly Kuykendall on the East
Pigeon side, and Mrs. Hattie
Jones and Mrs. Polly Smith on the
Ratcliffe Cove lineup.
i Ratcliffe Cove clinched the
match when Mrs. Kuykendall, who
had been volleying back two words
for every one her two opponents
handled, was thrown for ft less by
"grocer." Mrs. Jones reeled it off
correctly and that was the point,
set, and match. ;
The victory kept the spelling
slate clean for the Ratcliffe Cove
squad who won their only other
engagement of the season last
month.
In the East Pigeon lineup with
Mrs.'. Kuykendall were Mrs. Ray
mond Duckett, Tom Wells, Doris
Rollins, and Hilda Hargrove.
On the Ratcliffe Cove team with
Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Smith were
Mrs. Addie Liner, Mrs. Creola
Caldwell, and Mrs. Josephine Bishop.
Jesse Jones, Cecil school teach
er, assigned the words to the contestants.
As time passed with neither
side giving an Inch, a rumor start
ed spreading that someone was
planning to introduce a copy of
Einstein's generalized theory of
gravitation, but that this was a-
bandoned as hopeless as the con
testants would be able to go
through that, too, without too much
trouble. ' , , ,
The judges for the debate were
Hershcl Hipps, Hominy Commun
ity Development Chairman; Tom
Rogers of Clyde; and Bob Boone,
Francis Cove Community Develop
ment chairman.
The time-keeper was Truman
Davis.
After Ratcliffe Cove Community
Chairman Bob Francis opened the
meeting, the audience led by Mrs.
Mark Palmer sang "Rescue The
Perishing," and the devotional was
offered by Pender Roberson
T. T. Muse and Mrs. Mark
Palmer sang a duet, then Mr,
Francis announced that a study
course under the Rev.' Tom Erwin
would begin Monday.,
Assistant County Agent.. Turner
Cathey announced after the debate
ended that Ratcliffe Cove would
meet Iron Duff in a contest which
will include a spelling bee on Jan
uary 23 at the Haywood County
court House.
