k *_Roanoke Rapids Pay Roll $10,000,000.00 Annually... Biggest In All Eastern North Carolina Roanoke Ramblings J i Don’t Look Now Citizens of Roanoke Rapids and visitors from out of town looked up and down Roanoke Avenue Friday morning and, with mixed feelings, generally agreed that something new had been added. Risking the ire of some, the *' Rambler will mention that the "something new" was called a parking 'ter The Sto Ere t - rst day had gan to ginia n rne in froi n town, found a c on .11 s " windshield when he got back. He departed and never reported. Of course, what he doesn’t know is that in the interim, photograph his car while officer C. C. Deese j was tagging it....Uptown Satur I clay morning, reports Ben Lan I caster, Edward George went in to Cox’s Sanitary Barber Shop and, having to wait his turn, for got about his nickle and the fact 4 that it might run out. So, in the midst of his haircut, he jumped out of the chair and ran out to pay the thing off some more..Al so, said Ben, a colored man from out in the country got a citation while his car was parked in front of an uptown bank. Not knowing what it was, he asked a passerby what to do with the thing. Upon being advised to take it to the police station across from the “ postoA'ice, he unhappily depart ed for midtown. After a lengthy stroll through the postoffice, and thence through the hospital, he finally arrived at the Municipal Building. “Boss,” he told police chief Pete Davis after the chief had explained that it was a ci tation for a parking meter vio lation, “I’d like to know what is a meter. I was fixin’ to bring ,1 my family to town next Sat’day ’cause I figured you all city folks had finally fixed up something for us country folks to lean on while we was in town.” Pete said he had to Jet him go...Another colored motorist, a story goes, emerged from an establishment and, finding the red flag denot ing a violation showing on the meter facing his vehicle, hastily deposited a nickle, then jumped rf in his car and zoomed away. Others Have Troubles City Commissioner Marvin Col lier had his troub*?s with the meters first '‘ing -Friday .nor ning. Parked «,a ir a t c. n.'s u,r System Grocery in the downtown section was his delivery truck, with a nickle duly deposited in the meter. Things were going fine, the truck was being loaded ^ and then it happened—the right front tire went flat. The meter must have demanded a few more cents before that was repaired. A1 Drew says visiting the dentist is a lot of trouble. While he was in the dentist’s office uptown, his nickle ran out. Harold Bloom noticed it, luckily, and dropped a nickle in the meter for him. Harold said he saw the officer was starting to tag it so decided 1 he had to do something quickly. Capitalization Several of the merchants have decided to capitalize on the met ers. Lyle Wilson of the Roanoke Rapids theaters had some cards printed for use in front of the theaters. The deal is they depos it a nickle when they see the time running out on a car parked > in their vicinity.McRae Fai son and Charles Ogletree decid ed on the same kind of a deal so they handed some cards to Betty Wynne Ingram and Elaine Welch and told them to “save overtime parkers’’. Things were going pretty slow Wednesday lViorning so when Elaine spotted a car parked a few spaces down from the office, she rushed over ,0 and put some money in the met ‘ er, tagging it with the Faison Cannon card. As she turned to go back to the office she looked back at the vehicle. It was a police car. Makes Dean's List Among the 145 North Carolina students at Duke University who made the dean’s list last semes / ter is Edwin H. Webb of Roa * noke Rapids. Says the college, “Membership on the dean’s list, numbering 528 students, is given those making a B average grade, and entitles them to six class cuts during the semester instead of the regulation three absenc es.” Kiwanis Minstrel Success Last week, the Rambler hinted 4 that the Kiwanis Minstrel was one of the best amateur shows in this part of the country, bas ing his prediction on reliable in formants. Thursday night, he saw the show. He hasn’t changed his mind—it was an excellent show. It would be hard to*single out any one person for praise as they were all good. The Ram bier will say that all the leading actors were good. And he heard * several %loud guffaws when the “tight wire act” came on stage. | Jack Downing’s naive, carefree expression as he skipped happily on and off stage was said to have been the cause of much of the merriment. The Kiwanians are | to be congratulated on the good entertainment which they have Lbeen presenting annually for is * * * THE ROANOKE RAPIDS * * * What Roanoke Rapid* Make* Herald Clarified Advertiaing -Make* Roanoke Rapid* GetB Quick Ke*nlt* * * * * * * VOLUME XXXIII ROANOKE RAPIDS, N.
