As an . undergraduate, Mackie
was on the Wake Forest track
team and was a member of the
college’s scrub football team. As
a student, he did well.
Some time (before his retire

to say about his former student:
“Those of us who taught him rec
ognized his mental capability and
alertness ... a delight to a teach

in stock enormous intellectual re
sources that promised continued
growth.”

Youngsville’s Tre-Jay plant is
“rolling out the red carpet” to
night (Thursday) from 7:00 to 9:30
p.m. The public is invited to open

Nassau Street to tour the 27,000
square feet building and see op

Having just started in January
of this year, with about 50 employ
ees, the plant has “accomplished
its goal and then some” accord
ing to the aggressive plant man
ager, Bob Hill.
There are about 65 employees
at present who turned out I6V2 tons
of the finest baby pants imaginable
during the month of August. Real
izing this figure may be more in

DuBois Students Urged
To Continue Education
A part-time band teacher has
been hired as band teacher for
Wake Forest High School and
Wake Forest Elementary School.
Wake Forest Elementary School
Principal E. V. Meadows said
Wednesday that Greg Barton, a
senior at the University of North
Carolina at Chapel Hill, will be
here today for an organazational
meeting with band prospects.
Meadows said Barton will be a
part-time teacher dealing solely
with band for both high school and
elementary school.
The schools have been without a
band teacher since Billy Farmer
resigned the last of July. There
were no full-time band teachers
available.
Barton will be in Wake Forest on
Tuesdays, Thursday and Fridays.
He hopes to begin classes tomor
row and plans to have a program
ready for the October 13 home
game. Due to his UNC schedule,
he will not direct the high school
chorus.
Meadows said Barton is highly
recommended by Dr. Carter of the
UNC Music Department. He is
president of the UNC Band and
director of the Pep Band.
Meadows finds Barton very in
terested in the band program and
likes his enthusiasm.'
pression from a visit to the plant.
Numerous rows of flourescent
lights prbviding mpre (than the
usual brightness, make the attrac
tive brightly colored pants almost
irresistable.
The head man of the pants com
pany, John G. Emory of Lake
Oswego, Oregon, was visiting here
last week to “check on our needs”.
Hill said. He visits the plant from
time to time and “keeps you on
your toes, but lets you run your
own operation.”
Emory started in 1946 in Oregon
as a plastic manufacturer and ex
panded. Originally, it was Jay-
Vee. When it seemed time for
more expansion,' they decided to
locate another operation. This is
known as Jay-Too in Littleton and
was started in 1965.
Hill said they will be going into
production of diaper sets (tops and
bottoms) in November. This could
mean the addition of about 10 em
ployees, but “I don’t see the need
for additional machinery. We will
also be handling sweaters.”
“Our employees are some of the
finest people we’ve ever worked
with,” Hill was quick to mention.
“Bill Wood is one of the finest in
the business,” he. proudly stated.
Wood was formerly with Campus
Sports wear in Warrenton.
Mentioning some of the other key
personnel included, Ron MacDon
ald, sales manager; Mrs. Lorraine
Stainback, and Mrs. Charlotte Wil
son in the office; Mrs. Nina Cash,
chief supervisor; Wallace Bowl
ing, head engineer; and Kay
Pearce, shipping supervisor. Hill
said he wished he could print all
the employees names.
Tre-Jay is housed in the $40,000
building owned by Youngsville De
velopment Corp. Carrol Singleton
Associates of Henderson erected
the structure.
Hill sang praises of the Youngs
ville folks by remarking “we re
ceived the finest reception and sup
port of Youngsville people and
those in the area”.
There’s an informal and happy
feeling among the personnel. They
seem to thoroughly enjoy their
work. Bits of humor injected into
nearly every statement by Hill and
MacDonald has one smiling and
working in a relaxed manner.
“I’d never want to go through
another three months like we had
to in getting started” Hill stated,
“But, its been fun and enjoyable
even amidst the crises we have
i had.”
