CLIFF DWELLERS —Residents of five San Francisco, Calif., apartment houses were evacu
ated after a landslide into the site of a 16-story building.
frankly Speaking
By Frame Roberts
First and foremost, congratu-j
lations to a bunch of terrific 1
guys, the Edenton Aces. Once
again they’re champs. They’ve
given Edentonians an exciting
football season, wi.h a storybook
climax that we’ll never forget.
Individually and as a team they
are the finest young men, and
the very best of luck to ’em in
the next few weeks. I know
they’ll continue to get the same
wonderful support from the folks
in Edenton as they’ve been get
ting all season long and we’ll
continue to bring the games to
you over WCDJ. Once more, if
I may, congrats to the Edenton
Aces, a fabulous football team,
arid to their coach, who’s a top
coach and a great guy, Bill Bill
ings.
As long as - I'm sending out
congratulations, must send some
to ex-WCDJ staffer, Jimmy Bak
er. He was one of the six
Coast Guardsmen throughout the
country to be chos;n as .honor
guard at the funeral of the late
1 General George Marshall. He’s
, been in Movietone News,' some
| Philadelphia and Washington
newspapers. All this, while still
in boot camp. Home on leave
.now, Jimmy hopes to be station
ed near Edenton. We hope so,
too, Jimmy.
More quickie tee-vee reviews;
“Shotgun Slade,” starring Scott
Brady is a western Peter Gum.
Couldn’t be cornier. Standard
plot. and. cliches). Originally.
; “Masquerade Party,” was highly
entertaining,, now it’s highly bor
ing, except for the wonderful
Sam Levenson.
Still more deaths concerning
show-biz entertainers, the most
shocking of which was the
death of one of the screen’s
foremost character actors, Victor
McLaglan. Well, they’re almosi
done with tee-vee quiz shows
Now Congress is about to in
vestigate disc jockeys. I wonder
if I Should: (a) confess every
thing; (2) stand on the fifth
amendment; (c) plead innocent.
! Anyway, they’re looking into
I such things as briberies, payolas
j skulduggery. (I was once given
j a dinner by a record promoter,
; but I don’t think I can give it
up at this point). They’re also
going to check into television
and radio commercials. If they
check some of the things I write,
they’ll lock me up and throw
away the key, without bothering
to ask questions.

This is about the seasons. Os
the four, spring and fall, prob-;
ably have the greatest appeal j
to most people. In the spring
we have fragrance of the apple |
blossom; and in the faill there’s j
a bounteous harvest of luscious
fruit (if you have controlled the;
pests).
As the fall of the year ap-1
proaches, we should think about |
the many fairs to be held with- 1
in easy driving distance of most,
of us, and prepare our entries, j
Don’t put it off. Get a catalog;
and carefully follow instructions, i
Quality and condition of fruits,'
vegetables and flowers are of
paramount importance if you!
want to make your fair stand out j
and give the judges a hard time.;
Condition of the products ex-|
hibited ■ is usually given the
greatest weight in the judging
, score card. It has reference to
freedom from blemishes caused
,by insects and diseases, bruises

tatoes, leaf spot and damaged

show last week. If you’re inter
ested in acting, backstage work
or the like, let me know. This
isn’t a group of amteurs grop
ing in the dark. These people
are pros and semi-pros who'work
had at and do a good job of |
entertaining.
Reverend Hugh Michael Bea
han, radio and television directo:
of Grand Rapids Roman Ca ho
lie Diocese, recently declared
that because drinking creates e
problem for a relatively few peo
ple, “we should not consider de
priving the vast majority of nor
mal adults.” No comment from
this corner, except that there
you have something to start a
good lengthy round-table dis
cussion. i
Hey kids . . . Fabian’s first
full-length movie comes to the
Taylor end of this month. Also
this month, Danny Kaye as jazz
man Red Nichols in the “Five
Pennies.” Supposed to be darn
ed good. It’ll be here on the
24th of November and that morn
ing, we’ll be playing music from
the sound track. Speaking of
soundtrack music, I understand
that during the run of “For j
the First Time,” starring Mario
Lanza someone plugged in a tape
recorder at the Taylor Theatre
and recorded all of that beautiful
music. Not a bad idea at all.
A free prize, if you know the
author of this bsaut'ful quo
tation: “Our prayers should be
for blessings in general, for God
knows best what is good for us.”
