The Clyde Lions have coritribuU'd materially to the recent 1 developments of the Uv.n.. In the 1950 Polio drfve, Clyde was the first. town in North Caro lina to reach Its goal i$750i and ac tually raised over $1,000. The new highway is a mixed blessing.

With four Churches and one in the words ol Glenn Brown, "strad dle line" it is expected that Clyde should be dry dry even in its humor.
