Civic Clubs
Help Scouts
The public spitired contributions
of the various Civic Clubs of Tus
carora Council have been of in
estimable value in providing the
leadership for the three Jamboree
Troops which' will participate in
the National Boy Scout Jamboree
at Valley Forge, Pa., next month
said Mr. A. T. Griffin, Jr., Chair
man of the local Jamboree Com
mittee. The Scouts attending the
Jamboree are bearing their own
expenses but the Jamboree felt
that it would be unjust to expect
the leaders to utilize their entire
vacation period for this cause and
in addition to pay their own ex
penses. An appeal was made to
the various Civic Clubs of the
Council to help in defraying the
expenses of the leaders. A fine
response has resulted. Sizeable
sums for this purpose have been
received from the Clinton Rotary
Club, the Goldsboro Rotary Club,
the Smithfleld Klwanls Club, and
the Goldsboro Lions Club. Infor
mation received by the Jamboree
Committee Indicates that several
other Clubs are also planning to
participate In this worthy cause.
The Jamboree Committee wishes
to take this opportunity to express
the sincere gratitude of the entire
Tuscarora Council for the aid
they have rendered.

: It has been so long since I saw a
copy of the Times, I've forgotten '
what your subscrlpion rates are,
However, I'm enclosing check for
$3.00 to start my subscription and
will make up the diference when
I receive the paper. I'm extremely
interested in plans for the Page- ,

catch up with news of Duplin peo
ple, and to bring my tarniiy down
for the occasion. We're kin to the -McGowens,
Dlcksons,' Kenans,
Pearsalls, Rutledges, Kinnears, and
other old Duplin families. '
We see folks from Eastern North T
Carolina occasionally. One such re
union was the dinner thrown by
the Alumni of the University a '
couple, of weeks ago in honor of
Gordon Gray and his election to
the Presidency of the University. .:
Graham Barden called up not
long ago to get something started
on the Flood Control project for
the Northeast Cape Fear River. X
happened to attend the local hear
lng on that two or three years ago,
and thought it was "in the bag",
but lt came up before the Board ,
while I was on a five-months mis
slon to Colombia, South America,
and they sent lt to the Chief of
Engineers .with a non-convinced
notice. However, we are going to
get the Wilmington district engin
eer to look into lt again and may
have better luck next time. The
Army Engineers think a lot of
Graham Barden, up here - he's
one of the best, friends we have
down at the Capitol.
We have our immediate family '
all pretty well together again,
which is fortunate, considering
that all three of my children were
overseas in the Air Force during
the war." The oldest, Capt. Hay-
J T m. t Y aMI.UJ kin
stint with the Berlin Airlift as
squadron leader, Just as it closed
down. My youngest son, Walter E.
Faison is a controller with the

my daughter Betty, (Mrs. Stanley

from us. Mrs. Faison, Sr. and I fit
in well as baby sitters with the
