H. Earle Moblcy has intro- 1 duced a bill which would change i the method of selecting pilots for the port of Morehead City. From now on, if Mobley has his way. a man can become a pilot in the Morehead City harbor whether other pilots like it or not. The bill will make it easier for a man to become a pilot for Beaufort Bar and Old Topsail In let. He did so, he said, because Morehead City's revitalized port is creating the need for more pilots. Three are licensed now; at least five are needed. Even more may be needed later. Mobley sent forward a bill which would strike from the present law, drawn in 1947, a provision saying, that pilots can be licensed only Cusban Leaves Cherry Point Cherry Point ?

W. Morris discuss ed the proposed state orthopedic clinic for Carteret county. The public relations committee submitted a list of rules for better understanding between doctors and patients, which the NEWS-TIMES publishes in the interest of good health for Carteret county. 1. If you do not have a family physician, by all means choose one and gain his acceptance of respon sibility for you and your family's health guidance before you actually need him. 2. Place calls as early in the day as possible and give full informa tion when you call. 3. See your physician at his of fice rather than calling him to your home, when practical; he can usu ally serve you better at the office where he has adequate equipment and supplies. 4. If you call a second physician be sure to notify the first physician of thia fact, promptly. 5. Do not call on your doctor's afternoon off or Sunday, unless you have an emergency. 8. In cases of serious injury or accident notify your family physi cian and take the patient to the hospital. 7. Know your physician's office hours. Excuse and understand ir regularities caused by his caring for someone else's emergency. 8. If you cannot reach your doc tor at his office or home . . . call the Morehead City hospital (phone 6-4181) and you will be advised whether or not he is available. If he is not available you will be ad vised whom he has designated to care for his patients. Your physician has made sure that medical care will always be available to you and if all patienti will follow the above suggestions it will insure them the best medi cal care, and still give the physi cian time to enjoy a measure of home life, which you will agree is desirable for a doctor, too. The public r?iations committee it compoaed of Dr. N. Thos. En nett, chairman. Dr. P. E. Hyde and Dr. John W. Morria. with the written approval of at least two licensed pilots. As re written. the statute would allow the Morehead City Navigation and Pi lotage commission to examine ap plicants and license them without such approval from other pilots. Mobley said he introduced the hill at the request of the commis sion, which formulated the pro posed amendment at a meeting last week. The present law allows only three pilots for Old Topsail and Beaufort Bar. Mobley's amendment would cut out that maximum num ber. leaving the matter to the dis cretion of the board. More significantly, his bill would strike from the law a provision stating: . . Nor shall the board license a pilot except upon written approval of two licensed pilots." "We've had such an increase in traffic into Morehead City harbor that we've got to have more than three pilots," Mobley told report ers. "We have 60 ships a month in there now, and we're trying to look ahead. We're having to bring in those Navy ships." Two additional pilots are needed for the time be ing, he said. 2 Negroes Must Workfor Town Conviction of two Negroes in Beaufort recorder's court Tuesday brought the town two more man months' much needed labor, un paid Judge Earl Mqson suspended the sentences of the two Negroes on condition that they work 30 days for the town, either in the town hall, or on Beaufort streets.
