VIEWS And REVIEWS Pool - One of Our Biggest Assi By Jean Bond McCaniy The Wake' Forest Swimming Pool is one of the town’s biggest assets. Visitors' and newcomers are always surprised and delight ed at the size of it, and amazed at the low admission price. True, there are complaints about the short hours, but everyone agrees that the morning swimming class es must take precedence over pub lic swimming. It’s the evening hours that cause the compaints. There’s plenty of daylight time af ter work to have a good swim, but the pool closes too early to make it worthwhile. But, even if the pool were open 24 hours a day, the major prob- i • (I 0 • : I kIB c.,..'*»• STEAKO 9- C Fresh, Small, Meaty lb. Spare Ribs 59< Fresh lb. Pork Liver 33' BACON I Columbia lb.

It's been a should we? problem for at least twenty years already. When I was a little girl, I spent so much time in the pool that I saw the last six weeks of summer through a haze. The chlo rine was so strong by the middle of the season that thirty minutes was enough to turn eyes red and cloud the vision. Children are still coming home complaining about their eyes burning and' everything looking funny. Why?

(She’s the former Virgie Hicks and grandmother Ruby is real happy about her newest grandbaby.) Mr. and Mrs. Alvin Alford and Mr. Leroy Warren had a delight ful vacation week. They motored to Auburndale, Fla. for a visit with Mr. and Mrs. Joe Bunn. They vis ited Silver Springs and enjoyed the glass bottom boats, they went to Tampa and the Gulf of Mexico, enjoyed the Wax Museum at St. Petersburg. To top it all they came home via Carolina Beach and visited with Mr. and Mrs. Les ter Lynam. They really enjoyed their vacation week and really has many friends in Wake Forest was proudly showing off a new little girl at Camp Meeting. She was just 11 days old and a real little doll! Over the 4th o' July weekend, there were quite a few visitors and former residents using the pool, and all of them were dismayed. Such comments as — “It nearly put our eyes out.” “My children couldn’t stand up in the baby pool; the bottom was covered with slime.” “We couldn’t stay but a few minutes because the chlorine was so strong.” “Everybody was fitting .around the edge of the pool; you can’t swim in there.” L-are heard all too frequently. It’s much too nice a pool to get such a poor reputation. If it’s a matter of finances, it seems likely that' mil would be willing to; p;! more for the privilege ming in a cleaner, bettel pool.

Carolina Footprii THE HALIFAX RESOLVES By Carolyn Ritchie The Provincial Congress of Rev. and Mrs. Jerald Fountain and children are in Eastman, Ga. for last week and this week. They are vacationing with their par ents and we know they are all having fun. The Junior Boys and Girls of the Baptist Sunday School had a real treat Sunday when Mr. and Mrs. Judah from Jerusalem talked to them. Mr. Judah is a student at State College, and he and his wife told them many interesting things and showed them articles, one of which was a beautiful hand made dress worn by the Jerusalem wo men many years ago. North Carolina, meeting in April of 1776, was the first colonial legis lature to demand complete separ ation from Great Britain. During the years preceding 1776, the people of the American colo nies were disturbed and angered by the unfair taxation policies of the British Parliament. For a time, however, many staunch Whigs believed that King George III would interfere in their behalf and hoped for a reconciliation with the Mother Country. But when the King ignored their petitions and called for troops to suppress the “rebellion” in America, he de stroyed the Colonists’ loyalty to him. Drastic measures, the Whigs believed, were now essential. On April 4, 1776, delegates to North Carolina’s fourth Provincial Congress gathered in the thriving town of Halifax. Samuel Johnston, who presided, appointed a commit tee of seven members, headed by Cornelius Harnett, to consider the “usurpation and viola] tempted and commiteii j King and Parliament (l| against America.” On April 12, the commil their report.

There still was plenty of rub ber left. “You probably won’t put a tire to this test on your family car,” Turner said, “but it’s nice to know the Delta tire can take it if you need to depend on them.” Turner has raced in 354 races which is more than any Delta tires are available in red, or whitewalls.
