remedy in such ca.ses in the form
of an action for damages.

IT’S DANGEROUS
“It's dangerous to take off my
shirt. It might end up in one of
those crochet rugs my wife’s al
ways making,” lamented a Pas
quotank County husband recent
ly.
Even so, the husband, Clande
Harris, is proud of his wife’s skill
in making rugs.
Mrs. Harris has crocncted rugs
for many years, observ'es Mrs. El
sie B. Edwards, Extension home
economics agent. Rut until recent,
ly, when she sold two at the Al
bemarle Craftsman’s Fair, she
had concentrated on making rugs
for her own use as gifts for oth-,
ers. I
“Now Mrs. Harris has discover
ed leisure time activities can lead
to profit as well as pleasure,” the
agent notes. )
SAFETY CONTRIBUTION
“The most lewardlng part of
our 1-H Safety project this year
was making a 'safety station’ and
placin git at a county recreation
site,” two Durham County 4-H
girls believe.
The girls, Carol and Lorraine
.Simpson, memliers of the New
Hope club, paintt*d an old bench
and put a long bamboo pole, an
inflated innc'r lube, a rope and'
instructions on how to use the
items, on it.
The City Recreation Director
was pleased to have the “station”
dedicated to the Lake Mic kie Rec
reational Ar<‘a. No rescue equip
ment had been provided before.
During July and August about
17,.>00 persons use the recreation
area, Linda H. Washburn, assist-1
•ant home, economics Extension
agent, points out.
APPLIES KNOWLEDGE
After attending a drapery mak
ing workshop, Mrs. Jim Conner,
Columbus, Rt. 1, put her skills to
work by making draperies for her
guest bedroom.
Using fabric she had bought
several years ago, the homemaker
finished panels for two long nar.
row windows.
No v she plans to make a match-
in» bedspread, Anna J. Fitzger-

WILMINGTON — Gov. Robert
W. Scott has noted that the "dra
matic attendance rccxjrd” of the
USS North Carolina Battleship
Memorial has enabled the Battle-,
ship Commission to reach the
halfway point in repaying a State
loan right on schefduJe.
Gov. Scott ackn(AA■]edg^^l a
$30,(KK) chock s<‘nt to the Slate by
the USS North Carolina Battle
ship Commission as the fifth of
10 equal jiayments on a $300,000
loan acquired to provide the -ship
with the outstanding outdoor dra
ma which ifi presented during
summer months.
Edward L. Rankin, Jr., of Ra
leigh, chaimian of the Battleship
Commission, pointcKl out that
more than 2’l' million persons
have been counted as paid a.i-
missions to the ship, with another
130,000 attending the outdoor
Sound & Light Spectacular. “The
Immortal Showboat”, an unusual
presentation of the .ship's histor>'
and involvement in World War

I
“North Carolina is proud of its
unique memorial to those who
died in World War II, and we art*
confident that the USS North
Carolina will continue to be one
of the nation’s finest attractions,"
I Gov. Scott pointed out in a letter
' o Rankin.
The ship, wliich has been open
.since 1961, is compleely self-sup
porting on a non-profit basis and
operates fro madmission revenues
and other nontax receipts, Rankin
not<*<l proudly. No tax monies are
i involved in the support of the bat-
1 tlcship memorial.

popiiiatirin group last year as*
, measure<l by the N. C. State Mot-j

• in this category included 12 muni

A national study of the veterans
who entered college during the
first three years of the current
GI Bill indicates that while al-
,most half enrolled as freshmen,
j about one in five enrolled for a
master’s or Ph. D. degree.
I W. R. Phillips, Man-ager of the
A'eterans Administration Regional
Office in Winston-Salem, said that
moiv than half of the GI college
students indicated their fields of
study to V'A.
Of this group 31 percent chose
business and commerce, 14.5 per
cent (*ducation, and 11 percent
enigineoring.
Next inorder are the life sci-
ences (agriculture, biological,
medical, and health), un.*er nine
p(»rceni; technical courses, less
than eight p<*rcent; and social sci
ences, under eight percent.
' Business is also popular among
veterans who trained in sch(X)ls
below the college level. Electrical
and electronic training is another
popular subject among this group.
I In apprentice and other on-job
I training under the GI (Bill, struc-
i tural courses aro the most popu-*
lar.
I These additional statistics on
! veteran trainees were revealed in
; the report:
I
' 26.5 was the median age at
, the time of entering training.
! 70 percent were in their 20’s.
* 8.5 p*i(‘cnt were over 35.
• 28 percent had completed at
ItMst one year of college.
39 percent had one or more
dependents.
*99 percent were male.
The report was based on the
thr<*e-year period ending June 30,
1969.
Phillips said that there are 259
educational units approved for VA
training in North Carolina. Of
these, 107 art* below college level
and 1.52 arc institutions of higher
learning.
There arc 397 approved job train-
in; establishments in the stfite.
Phillips invited veterans in or
out of school to contact the VA
Regional Office if they have any
ijuestions about veterans benefits.
V'eterans students were urged
to inform the VA promptly if they
have changes in their courses of
stuxly, address or numbers of de
pendents.
