Lu Long’s home folks waited
anxiously for her return at which
time they ^ sounded a long blast
from the town’s fire siren, a signal
which is used only for special oc
casions and emergencies. As the
waiting crowds swarmed around
Lu Long, one of the reporters said,
Has all this attention turned her
head ?” The answer was, “No.
She s just plain old Lu Long Og-
burn all the time.” They didn’t
mean that Lu Long was either
plain or old, but the reporter got
the idea.

Dr. Welch Aids In Capt ure
of Two Escaped Convicts

WELCOMES YOU
Come to see us for your new fall hair-do
One block from Salem Square
102 W. Academy St.
Dr. Elizabeth Welch had a
chance at real drama this summer
when she aided in the capture of
two long-term convicts at the
Waterside Theatre near Manteo,
N. C. where she was employed at
The Lost Colony pageant.
Dr. Welch, who had walked down
by the' deserted corridor checking
to see that everyone was on stage,
noticed a bent-over figure in a T-
shirt near the women’s dressing
rooms. Thinking him to be a can
teen boy, she was about to ap
proach him and order him off that
section of the stage property when
she saw another figure join the
first; both slipped into the water
and waded along, climbing to the
pilings. Having been warned
earlier of the escape, she realized
who they were, went quickly back
across to the other side of the
stage and warned the stage man
ager and the architect.
The three thought fast as they
grabbed two fake guns used as
stage props in the pageant. They
staged a hold-up and ordered the
convicts. Buckshot Harris and
Harold Pace, to come out of the
water with their hands up. When
the convicts questioned the grounds
of their arrest. Dr. Welch and her
assistants realized that they had
no answer. Suddenly the convicts
ran behind the stage straight into
the hands of the guards.
The capture completed. Dr.
Welch was told the details. The
convicts, working the roads nearby,
were playing a baseball game with
a Manteo team. When a fly ball
went over the stockade wall, the
two convicts went after it. Seeing
their opportunity to escape, they
ran into the. water close by and
made their way to the fort.
Dr. Welch was told later that
she had acted wisely in not ap
proaching the two men unarmed.
She described Buckshot Harris as
“tall and vicious looking”. Swear
ing loudly, he promised never to
forget who was responsible for his
capture and to repay them, added
Dr. Welch.
