Eagle Boosters Elect Officers At Meeting Tuesday Night Bernard Leary wag elect ed president of the More head City Football Boosters Club Tuesday night. Club elections were conducted at the dining room of the Hotel Fort Macon. Other elected officer! were Thomas Oglesby, vice-president; John Baker, secretary; Nick Ga lantis, treasurer; and Bob Sey mour. public relations director. Six men were elected to the board of directors. They were George R. Wallace, . Dom Femia, James Smith, Frank Cheek, Skip Willis and Dr. Russell Outlaw. Dr. Outlaw presided at the meet ing. He traced the accomplish' ments of the club since it was or ganized during the past football season. "Most of the credit is due to one man, Nick Galantis, who has done most of the work so far," Dr. Outlaw said. Booster Projects Mr. Galantis was recognized as president of the boosters even though the group was not formally organized. The club raised over $300 for a gift for Coach Norman Clark, sponsored a steak supper and co-sponsored, with the Jaycees, the annual football banquet. The boosters sponsored a dance at the Morehead BiJtmore Hotel which netted about $165. A bas ketball game also turned in some profit for the club. The boosters are currently work ing on two projects. One is the membership drive which has brought in 112 members at $3 per year. The second project is the large sign at the junction of Bridges and Arendell Streets west of Morehead City. The sign was erected by the town of Morehead City for the Centen nial Committee and given by that group to the boosters. Through the cooperation of the Morehead City street commissioner, G. E. San derson, the sign has been painted white. Sign Welcomes Visitors Bed letters welcoming visitors to Morehead City, home of state football champions, will be printed on the sign as soon as the weather permits. After the business was com pleted. Mr. Leary thanked the group for honoring him and said that he would do his best to see that the club gave solid support to the football program and to the coach. "The boosters are not interested in forming a 'pressure group' to dictate policy or create ill will be tween the school and the fans. We merely want to give money to the school to promote football and to give the team the publicity it de serves," Mr. Leary said. Coach Clark said that the boost ers could become a very important group in town if they were able to give boys the incentive to play football. "If the fellows know that they will be well-equipped, get good pub licity and have the support of fans like you, they will be that much more anxious to play ball," he pointed out. Eagles Hold 3>-5 Record "The Eagles have won 39 games and lost five in the four years that I hive been here," the coach con tinued. "This does not mean that we will keep on winning it that rate. Morehead City is now one of the smaller AA schools rather than a large A school. "That means we win be playing many schools that are larger than we are. Some of the toughest teams we will play next year are New Bern, Wallace-Rose Hill andl Cary," the coach concluded. ' Mrs. M. D. Lasitter, a member of the boosters and an acquaint ance of Jim Tatum, got moviea of the UNC games with Miami, Duke and Navy. She did not attend the meeting but sent the movies, which were shown by John Parsons. ^1 I am i candidate for II Cortatr of Cartorot County, Primary - May 3 lit, IMS. Your vet* will b? appreciated.

Except for one board at the Morehead City Country Club, these will be the only diving boards in the county. Lifeguards will be on duty at all times the pool is open to see that safe swimming and diving rules arc observed. Floodlights will be installed around the pool, making night swimming safe and fun. The swim ming area is separated from a 40 acre lake by lifelines. The lake will be devoted to mo torboats and water skiers. A ski jump will be erected in the middle of the lake so the "experts" can show how it's done. A channel will be cut from the lake to a clubhouse near the swim ming ared. Boaters can beach their boats along the channel and walk Morehead City Blues .
