Craven Education Board Studies Negro Requests ? Board Says Its Decision 'Will b? Announced' ? 24 Negro Pupils Want To Oo to Whit* School The Craven County Board of Ed ucuurti considered Monday the ap plications of 24 Negro pupils who would like to enter the white school at Havelock, but no decision was reached. Robert L. Pugh, superintendent of Craven County schools, said after the meeting. "Applications for reassignment have been given full consideration. As soon as ac tion. in accordance with the law, is completed on the applications, it will be announced." The students asking for reassign ment live in the Craven Corner section of Craven County. Most of them attended Queen Street School in Carteret County last year. Carteret school officials do not view the request as solely a push toward integration. Some of it stems from dissatisfaction of Ne gro parents with the school ar rangement in their section. Until the new Godette School for Negro children opened last fall, pupils in grades 1 through 8 at tended a school at Bachelor. When the new Godette School was built, pupils in grades 5 through 8 were assigned to the new school, reducing the school at Bachelor to only four grades. Parents of children in grades 5 through 8 apparently didn't like the fact that their children would go to the Godette School. So they hired a teacher and sent their chil dren to their own private school in a Craven Corner church. Children who finished eighth grade in that private school are now ready to enter ninth grade (high school). Ordinarily, they would come to Queen Street, as all high school students from the Cra ven Corner section have in tha past. They have, instead, applied for the white school at Havelock, as have Craven Corner high school pupils who attended Queen Street this past year. Here, another complication en ters the picture. Because the chil dren ready to enter ninth grade were educated at a private school, the public schools do not recognize them as accredited atudenta. , , If they are to enter ninth grade IH Women Paddl# tp Florida Lay Speaker to Conduct Straits-HI Services R. D. Shinkle, lay speaker at the Cherry Point Methodist Church, Havelock, will fill the pulpit at the morning service Sunday in Harkers Island Methodist Church and in Straits Methodist Church at the evening service. The pastor of the churches, the Rev. J. E. Mahoney, who was ap pointed to serve the churches by the bishop at annual conference, has been delayed in California. Dr. A. J. Hobbs, district superin tendent, New Bern, announced that Mr. Shinkle would conduct the services. anywhere, they must take exam inations or repeat the eighth grade in an accredited school. A third complication is the crowded condition at the Havelock white school. The Craven County board will not meet again until August but it is believed that the board's de cision may be announced prior to then. ? Mrs. C. M. Steuhler, right, Mor- H ristown, N. J., and her daugh ter, Sally, stopped in Morehead City last week. They were on their way to Hollywood, Fla., in this 17-foot canoe. Rather than buck the tide, they carried the canoe from the Yacht Basin to Bogue Sound, behind the Jeffer son Hotel, and continued South on the inland waterway. Giving a hand is Tony Ayala of Havana, Cuba. The women are not making the trip as a publicity stunt, they claim, nor are they being fi nanced by a canoe company. They said they merely wanted to take a canoe trip. They paddle awhile and sometimes hitch a tow with a passing yacht. They left Morehead City last Friday. Sounds Ominous New Haven, Conn. (AP) ? A lo cal hospital plan issued a folder explaining its benefits for anes thesia. A lady subscriber called the office to voice her approval of the folder. "Bft," she asked, "what kind of disease is anes-. thesia? > Car Hits Rear Of Car Monday One car ran into the rear of another at 4:05 p.m. Monday on Highway 70 two miles west of Newport. A 1955 Packard, driven by Roy Litteton, Morehead City, was struck by a 1957 Ford driven by John H. Coward, Crifton, accord ing to Patrolman W. E. Pickard. Both cars were headed east, Coward coming to Carteret for a three-week vacation, towing his boat behind. The Packard had slowed while a car ahead of him was waiting to make a turn. Damage to the Ford was esti mated at $200, to the Packard $50. No charges were filed. We may not be the wealthiest county in the state, but we can be the cleanest. Don't throw trash out car windows.

Discussion of the budget for 1958-90 wis the main topic at the Beaufort town board meeting Mon day night. The commissioners au thorised town clerk Dan Walker to get price estimates for paving the 300 blocks of Craven and Pol lock Streets (between Broad and Cedar Streets) and for patching other streets in town. These projects are near the top of the list of things the board hopes to get done next year. Mr. Walker said that he would also get a price for p'.'ing Ilill and Set View Streets. The residents of these streets have indicated that they are willing to pay a portion of the cost. Mr. Walker reported that pipe for outfall lines (drains) behind the school, at Broad and Hare mock Streets and in the 1500 block of Ann Street is on hand. City crews will install the lines as soon as possible. To Appraise Property Town attorney Gene Smith read a letter from Beaufort Fisheries containing an offer to buy town owned property at the east end of Front Street Extended. The commissioners voted to have the property appraised and then sell it at public auction. Mayor C. T. Lewis said he would like to see money in next year'j budget for trees. He said that many of the trees in town are dying and no one is planting new ones. He also reported that Edgar Swann of the county airport com mission had discussed the condi tion of the airport terminal with him. The terminal is in a rundown condition, needing new windows, paint, doors and other repairs. The mayor said that Mr. Swann was going to do as much on the building as his funds permitted. Fire Report Fire commissioner Gerald Hill reported two calls to his depart ment during June. One was a fire at 20S Orange St. and the other was a call for the rescue truck following a fight. Police commis sioner Math Chaplain reported 19 arrests for the month. There were 195 meter violations and two park ing violations. The board, at the suggestion of commissioner Hill, requested the clerk to bring the minute book up to date. They also asked him to present all bills payable to the board before they were paid.
