: Large Home on Bogue Sound
Destroyed by Fire Yesterday
The Bill Brittingham home, Mit-<
ehell Village, was destroyed by fire
yesterday afternoon.
The two-story house, located on
the sound, and one of the older
homes in the area, having been
built before Mitchell Village was
developed, caught fire about 2:45
p.m.
Morehead City firemen were no
tified by telephone and when they
pr arrived, flames were feeding vi
ciously on the second story. Sparks
6 were carried by the southwest wind
1 300 feet away to the Paul Willis
* homo where water had to be put
on the roof to keep the Willis house
from catching fire.
, No one was in the Brittingham
house at the time. It had been
rented to people during the sum
. mer months, the last occupants
* leaving Sunday.
b Some of the neighbors said that
smoke had been coming from the
house for about half an hour before
the flames were discovered. Mar
s' vin Roberts went into the house
and got out as much furniture as
'n possible.
At press time, Paul Willis was
still trying to contact Mr. Britting
! ham to tell him of the fire. There
7 were approximately 10 rooms in
! the house. No one knows how the
k fire might have started.
S Between 15 and 20 firemen an
swered the alarm. At 5 p.m. fire
men were still pouring water from j
. the tank truck on the hot ashes.
Harlowe Area
Gets Telephones
The construction of telephone I
lines, which has been in progress I
along Highway 101 for the past sev
eral weeks, has been completed.
I. ant week 44 families, principally
in the Harlowe and North Harlowe
communities, were provided with
telephone service from the Have
lock exchange, according to an
announcement today by B. S. Oli
ver, manager for Carolina Tele
phone and Telegraph Co. in New
Bern.
Mr. Oliver said that telephone
construction crews had buried over
eight miles of cable between Have
lock and North Harlowe and that
a number of additional lines had
been placed on poles along the side
roads leading off Highway 101.
More May Apply
He also stated that facilities are
available to serve additional appli
cants in this area and anyone in
terested in telephone service
should make application at the
company business office in Have
lock.
It was pointed out that 42 of the
original 64 applicants on this pro
ject either cancelled their applica
t tion when service was offered to
them or they did not acknowledge
written notices that were mailed
out advising them that telephone
service was now available.
In other words. Mr. Oliver said,
only about one-third of the original
applicants took the service which
they applied for. This situation has
been improved somewhat in that
t 22 families, who were not on the
original list, have had telephones
installed since the line was com
pleted.
Farther Expansion
Regarding plans for further ex
pansion of telephone facilities in
that area, Mr. Oliver said that
telephone service would be pro
i vided within the next four to six
weeks to eight families in the vi
cinity of Craven Corner Elemen
tary School as well as the school
itself. It was also pointed out that
no immediate plans have been
made to serve seven additional ap
plicants who live in the Adams
' Creek section.
To serve the needs of the gen
eral public, a public pay station in
an outdoor booth is being installed
in the North Harlowe community.

fort, charged with molesting an ?
year-old girl, was continued in

Good News ,
About
By Hirrjr Venter*, 4-H Advisor
I want to tell you some of the
things I've been doing for the past
three weeks. The reason I think
you will be interested is because
state 4-11 Club Week, Wildlife
Camp and our Count] i ll Camp
came in successive weeks 1 don't
recommend anyone taking in these
activities in three successive
weeks, but 1 did live through It
and had a wonderful time.
State 4-H Club Week, held on
the State College Campus in Ra
leigh, was the most impressive of
the weeks, Faiyc Pilkanton, Kay
Temple and Gordon Becton of the
Beaufort Senior 4-11 Club, Anne
Herbert and Doris Phillips from
the Morehead Senior 4-II Club and
Betty Green and Linda McDonald
from the Newport Senior 4-H Club,
joined over 1,200 4-H'ers from
every county in North Carolina
and several visiting 4-H'ers from
other states.
Activities participated in includ
ed everything from recreation to
politics and I'm not sure which
was taken more seriously. District
demonsrtation winners, talent win
ners and county Health Kings and
Queens competed for state honors.
Three counties from our eastern
district, Tyrrell, Hyde and Gates,
had State Demonstration winners
and Carteret County had a blue
ribbon Health Winner in Gordon
Becton In addition to the con
tests, which took place mostly in
the afternoons, classes on 4-H Rec
ord Keeping, Farm l'ond or Water
Safety, How to Give a Demonstra
tion, and other subjects, were
taught during morning classes.
Each evening there was recrca
tion in the form of square and
folk dancing with a vesper service,
put on by 4-H'ers, closing each
day's activities. The politics I men
tioned was the election of State
4-H Club officers for the coming
year, and these boys and girls
really put on a campaign that
some of our adult politicians could
get a few ideas from.
The following week George Simp
son of Bcttic and a member of the
Smyrna Intermediate 4-H Club,
and I, went to Wildlife Camp.
George was awarded a week at
camp as a county wildlife project
winner, and every boy and girl at
this camp were county winners.
This camp is sponsored by the
Federal Cartridge Corp. and only
certain county wildlife winners are
selected on the basis of their pro
ject record.
George and I boarded a char
tered bus in New Bern along with
4-H'crs from Beaufort, Pamlico,
and Craven Counties. We were on
our way to Swannanoa, picking up
4-H'ers all the way across the
state until we had 33 on the bus.
The last 4-H'er to board the bus
was from Old Fort, only' a few
miles from Swannanoa. At this
camp, classes were given on many
phases of wild life management
and protection, gun safety, water
safety, trapping, fly fishing, and
other subjects pertaining to the
protection of our natural resources.
Perhaps the highlight of the
week of camp was a two-day tour
of the Mount Mitchell State Park
area, the game preserve and also
the thrill of seeing the wonderful
views from the Blue Ridge Park
way. We spent the night in sleep
ing bags furnished by the camp at
Crabtree Meadows, a picnic and
camping area on the Parkway.
We toured to the very top of
Mount Mitchell and visited the
Museum of North Carolina Min
erals. It was a wonderful week,
and I'm sure that George and I
learned a lot about the importance
of conserving our natural re
sources and wildlife for our gen
eration fend generations yet un
born.
Now, last week was fun week
for 33 boys and girls from Carteret
County as it was camp week. Miss
Sadie Harris, adult 4-H leader, and
I accompanied some of the finest
boys and girls I have ever known
to the Roanoke Island 4-H Camp
at Manteo. Four-H'ers from On
slow, Perquimans and Robcrson
Counties were also there with their
leaders, bringing the total number
at camp to over 120 boys and girls.
The camp schedule is a stren
uous one, beginning each morning
at 6:30 and going fuli blast until
about 10:30 at night. Of course
there Is a short rest period right
after lunch, and believe me I
needed it. There are four activity
periods in the morning, handicraft,
swimming, recreation and either
wildlife or electricity. Instruction
is given during these periods.
In handicraft, for example,
everyone made a clutch bag or bill
fold. Some campers did a very fine
job on theirs and a few won blue
ribbons, including Alice Sanders,
Camp Glenn 4-H'er.
Other 4-II'ers from Carteret
County winning recognition for
their leadership and camp spirit,
were Denard Harris, Beaufort 4
H'er and Junior Youngblood, New
port 4-H'er.
One of the highlights of the week
was a "pirate ball" and all 4-H'ers
showed their originality by im
provising a pirate costume. Bobby,
Hill, David Quidley and Denard
Harris were selected as the top
three boys.
Everyone in camp also attended '
the Lost Colony performance and
I think they really enjoyed it. We
also visited the Lost Colony one
afternoon when we could go
through the museum and sec other
points of interest there. While on
this tour we also visited Mother's
Vineyard where the first grapes
were cultivated in the New World
and climbed the Wright Memorial.
New Book Tells
Of State Rocks
Raleigh? Rocks found in North
Carolina contain one of the largest
assemblages of minerals identified
to date In any state in the union.
This statement is contained in
the foreword of a new publication
of the Department of Conservation
and Development's mineral re
sources division.
Entitled "Mineral Localities of
North Carolina", it is the work of
James F. Conley, a geologist em
ployed in the mineral resources
division.
Comprehensive in scope, the pub
lication contains 83 pages. It tells
about "rock hounds", persons who
collect rocks and minerals for pro
fit and as a hobby, tells where such
rocks and minerals are usually
found, and describes in maps and
words the principal mineral locali
ties of the state by counties.
The principal mineral producing
counties of the state are Alamance,
Alexander, Alleghany, Ashe, Avery,
Buncombe, Burke. Cabarrus, Cald
well, Catawba, Chatham, Chero
kee, Clay, Cleveland, Davidson,
Davie, Durham, Franklin, Gaston,
Granville, Guilford, Halifax, Har
nett, Haywood, Henderson, Iredell,
Jackson, Lee, Lincoln, Macon,
Madison, McDowell, Mecklenburg,
Mitchell. Montgomery, Moore,
Orange, Person, Randolph, Ruther
ford, Stokes, Swain, Transylvania,
Wake. Warren, Watauga, Wilkes,
and Yancey.
Dr. J. L. Stuckey, State geolo
gist, said the study and findings
of Conley are "comprehensive as
well as factual and will provide
persons interested in North Caro
lina minerals with a fine reference
book".
Coating 50 cents per copy post
paid, the Conley book may be ob
tained by writing to the Division
of Mineral Resources, Department
of Conservation and Development,
Raleigh, N. C. and enclosing the
proper amount.
