Hello againi
Well, people, school Is just
about ready to start. You’ll
be surprised how fast the 27th
will come. I was talking to some
kids from Kinston who told me
they start school a week after
us. They’re gloating about it
now, but 1 doubt they will next
summer.
Things really happen next
week, For all you up-coming
freshmen, Wednesday is your
STYLISH . . . New style
necklace? Not exactly, bat on
Judy Kennedy it looks very
goo4 In reality the “necklace”
is a shark’s vertabra and is on
exhibit at the Miami, Fla. Sea-
qaarinm.

day. The 18th is the time for
the annual Freshmen Orient
ation Day. You will be guided
around NBHS by leaders of the
senior class who will try to
show all its Important parts.
Jan Galasso, president of the
National Honor Society, and
Tom Ballance, president of the
Student Body, have really put
a lot of planning into the pro
grams. Leaders of clubs and
organizations around school
will speak to you and explain
many of their aims and activi
ties. Thinking back to my fresh
man orientation, I can say you
will really enjoy this one.
For all you summer-soft
cheerleaders, practice begins
Monday. My advice is to go
ahead and start warming up.
All those sore muscles will
hurt enough as it is. And to
anyone who would like to lose
a little bit of weight, come
out and join us. We guarantee
five pounds off the first week.
Congratulations go to Mr. and
Mrs. Andrew Grady. We sure
are glad to hear about that
soon-coming addition to the
family. Especially the cheer
leaders, Mrs. Grady. Even
though we hardly ever show our
appreciation, our gratefulness
is always there. We’ll see you
at the games.
(Edditor’s Note: We join
Jennie In extending to Andrew
and Francis Grady congratu
lations on their scheduled
blessed event.)

also affect the entire plant or
only parts, such as buds on
peach trees.
When the resting period is
over, a dormant period reg
ulated by external influences
such as low temperatures. We
usually think of the dormant
period as occurring at leaf fall
in the autumn until growth be
gins in the spring. With this
backgrownd, we may have an
explanation for the misbehavior
of plants at this season.
My theory is, that due to the
prolonged dry hot weather in
late summer of 1964, many
plants were forced into an en-
natural rest period. With the
resting period satistied the dor
mant or cold period lost con
trol due to an unusually mild
winter with temperatures as
high as 70 degrees and 75
degrees F. on Christmas Eve
or Christmas Day.

The U. S. S. North Caro
lina is anything but a “Ghost-
ship” today as she rides at
her permanent berth across the
Cape Fear River from Wilming
ton.
In the prologue to “The Im
mortal Showboat,” the Soimd
and Light spectacle which re
tells the heroic story of the
big battleship’s career, the
eerie voice of the narrator
speaks of the “ghost ships”
which have borne the name of
“North Carolina” since 1820.
But today’s U. S. S. North
Carolina is alive throughout
most the daylight hours with
thousands of persons who come
here from all parts of the world
to Inspect one of the greatest
Naval fighting machines ever
constructed. Already nearly
1,400,000 persons have boarded
her since she was open to the
public in October, 1961. There
have been as many as 5,000
persons to board her in one
day.
At ni^t, too, the big ship
comes alive in “The Immor
tal Showboat,” the Sound and
Light spectacle which depicts
the life and times of the ship
from her keel-laying in Brook
lyn Navy Yard in 1937 to her
triumphant steaming into Tokyo
Bay in 1945.
“The Immortal Showboat”
utilizes advanced techniques of
electronics to produce vMd and
realistic sound and llgditlng ef
fects and special music and
dialogue to tell the story of
the great ship.
The audience views and hears
“The Showboat” from a speci
ally - constructed 1,126-seat
stadium just off the port bow
of the battelshlp.
CARE OF MACHINES
Does your sewing machine
need cleaning? Is it out of
adjustment? Homemakers in
Mitchell County realize that the
sewing machine is an expensive
item and are learning to pro
perly use and care for the
machine.
Mrs. Lois Williams, home
economics agent, says the
homemakers are carrying their
machines to workshops being
held in the comity so they can
get them in shape for spring
sewing.
