Morehead Scores in Extra
Inning to Defeat Dixon 7-6
Morehead City Eagles
pulled the fat out of the fire
in an extra inning Friday to
defeat Dixon 7-6 at Dixon. A
sensational rally by the
Dixon club in the bottom of
the seventh tied the score at
6-6, putting the heat on the
visiting Eagles.
Jerry Pittman was the winning
pitcher, allowing Dixon only eight (
hits. Dixon's pitcher, A. Padgett,'
Coach Norman Clark's boys
will go after their third win this
afternoon when Smyrna will
travel to Morehead. Game time
is 3:15. Mcintosh will be on the
mound for Morehead.
allowed Morehead City 11 hits,
three in the first, one in the fourth,
five in the fifth and two in the
seventh.
Dixon's five runs in the seventh
were made with two men out.
Leading batters for the Eagles
were Raymond Earl Willis with 3
for 4. Ken Putnam, 2 for 3, and
Pittman, 2 for 3.
D. Padgett of Dixon, desci ibed by
Coach Clark as one of the heaviest
hitting high school players he has
ever seen, got 2 for 3, a triple and
a double.
Kent Brown robbed Padgett of a
homer when he made a circus catch
in left field. Coach Clark had. high
praise for Brown's sensational per
formance. As lor Padgett, Clark
says he's big league material ? and
Padgett still has another year of
high school.
Mcintosh caught for Morehead
and Smith for Dixon.
Score by innings: R. H. E.
Morehead 200 130 01?7 11 3

a 7-0 score in the Eagles favor.

Woman Mayor I
Visits Air Base
Cherry Point- Not only the first
elected mayor of her town, but the
only woman mayor in North Caro
lina. Mrs. Emily Mustian of Kill
Devil Hills recently toured the I
Marine Corps Air Station.
She was on her way back home
from a Raleigh conference with I
Gen. Edward Griffin, director of!
Noath Carolina Civil Defense. I
Intending to make the seaside'
town of Kill Devil Hills their place
of retirement, Mayor Musaian and
her husband, Dr. Wallis F. Mus
tian, an oral surgeon, left their
long-time home at Durham where
the mayor had taught school.
Exactly three years after the
doctor and Mrs. Mustian became
residents, the townpeople plucked
Mrs. Mustian out of retirement i
electing her to office over the
then incumbent, who was mayor
pro tem. ?
Born in Valdese. Burke County
Mayor Mustian said that an inter
esting sidelight was the fact that
her father, John Long, had been
elected the first mayor of Valdese,
just 30 years from the day of her
own election.
Deadlines Given
For State Practical
Nursing Exams
Application from persons desir
ing certification as a licensed prac
tical nurse may be filed now with
the North Carolina Board of Nurse
Registration and Nursing Educa
tion Enlarged, Raleigh, for the
last examination to be given for
waiver applicants.
The deadline for receiving com

Joyce Warren, chairman of the
board, stated yesterday that the
last examination will be conduct
ed in Raleigh July 25, 1958.
It was stressed by Miss Warren
that a courae or certificate from
a commercial or correspondence
school of practical nursing does
not qualify a person for practical
nurse licensure in North Carolina.
A twelve-month course of train
Ing in an accredited school of

lows you to leave the good oldU. S.
and return, the visas allow you to
enter and stay within a foreign
country.
Since trouble seems to breed in
Palestine like summer storms
which brood offshore here, you
are carefully screened by the
State Department. In fact I felt
more like 1 had been strained than
screened.
You would have thought that I
held the keys to Oak Ridge and
Fort Knox along with the files
from the Los Alamos Atomic Prov
j ing Range in Nevada. They take
no chances on allowing a potential
enemy of this country to slip over
to the Iron Curtain countries.
I have now a deep respect for
the security regulations which keep
us a free nation. Only one time did
I threaten to, shall I say, cast rea
sonable doubt on my ministerial
dignity. That was when I was re
quired to prove that I was born.
I never knew how hard it was to
definitely prove that 1 was brought
into this world. I started out in
Raleigh one fine day about six
weeks ago at 9 a.m. and five hours,
a pair of worn-out shoe soles, a ris
ing indignation, and a buck fifty
later, I proved that I was born.
I ran into two strange require
ments for staying in Jordan. First,
I had to prove that I was a Chris
tian. which required a certificate
of baptism, a letter from your
church, and from your pastor. I
had thought up to this time that
the only way to prove your basic
Christianity was to live it.
The second requirement was a
letter of financial stability. That
is the only joke I ran into. One
of the main reasons for such a re
quirement is that you have access
to enough money to get out of the
country without being stranded,
for-. thefr- do not have a fund f?r<
"broke" travelers in the Hashemite,
Kingdom of the Jordan.
The anticipation for a trip of this
kind is very keen, but the sharp
edge is generally blunted when the
last view of the coastline of the
United States passes from view.
There is no mistaking the feeling
of insecurity when you leave this
Fortress of Democracy we call
home.
We, the American people, have
the most precious right in the
world. The right to live without
fear. This is the one nation on the
face of the earth where you can go
to sleep at night, after looking in
on the children, and rest without
the dread of being awakened by
gunfire and rioting without.
I will miss the feeling of know
ing that all is well and my right to
live freely which I felt when here
in Morehead I heard the shriek of
jet engines. Those planes from
"The Point" may be a cause of irri
tation to some people, but to me
they are the sweetest lullaby in the
world, for I know they are up there
loaded for bear and I mean the
Russian bear with bared fangs.
You can bet your sweet life that
my passport will be my most
guarded possession, for it is a pass
port to freedom.

I The flight was on KLM Dutch
Royal Airlines, one of the best in
the world. Their planes are the
best, American made, which we
can appreciate and are they kept
clean! They are as clean as newly
fallen snow on a church roof.
While talking to Dr. William H.
Morton, excavation director, with
whom I am traveling, I asked what
the difference was between first
class and tourist class in air travel.
The only difference that we can
find out so far is that they serve
more, shall we say, "Dignified
white lightning" on the first class
flights. Naturally we travel tourist
class.
On April 5 we will arrive at
Cairo, Egypt. From there I will
send you some observations on a

There's No Buyer
For 'Onion Eggs'
The smells of spring may soothe
the city man, but some of them
are mighty irritating to the farm
er.
One of the most disturbing of
these smells is that of wild onions,
and one of the farmers most dis
turbed is the poultry man.
So long as his birds were on a
clean, mash and grain diet, their
eggs usually tasted just like fresh
eggs should. But come spring, and
the birds go out on the range, the
poultry man's customers often
complain about "onion eggs." In
some cases, the complaints are
about "turnip eggs" or "cabbage
eggs "
Since the flavor of eggs is direct
ly related to what the chicken eats,
farmers must watch their layers'
diets or watch their customers stop
eating eggs.
R. S. Dearstyne, professor of I
poultry science at N. C. Sttae Col
lege, points out that no real pre
ventative program can be estab
lished, except that of good man
agement. The poultry man should
be on guard to remove the source
of trouble when it appears.
The chicken's feed isn't the only
thing that influences flavor; eggs
may absorb odors from other ma
terials stored in the same room
with them. This, says Mr. Dear
styne, infers that egg rooms should
be used for eggs alone.
Even musty or moldy cardboard
cartons can impart objectionable
flavors to eggs.
Of course, the age of the egg
has a good bit to do with its fla
vor; as it ages, carbon dioxide is j
released, causing ccrtain smelly
chemical changes.

county.
She said that the study has been
undertaken with a view to obtain
ing special teachers for retarded
children. She added, however, that
such a program requires extensive
testing as well as locating teach
ers qualified to handle sub normal
pupils.
Thus, Miss Hughes said, it may
be a year or more before such a
teaching program can be put into
effect, if it is found feasible at all.
Teachers employed would be
paid by the state.
