r— j ————•! 160-SECOND SERMONS By FRED DODGE < Text: “An optimist always < relines his bad breaks.” 1 —Lois Pasley ] -- - ( Two men were discussing, the. 1 new school principal. j < “That man,” said one, “is a j confirmed optimist.” ] “How is that?” a*.ed the oth- ' er: l “Well, he lives a block from; ] pie and he’s trying to raise ros es, vegetables, chickens, two I cocker spaniels and three boys all on one lot.” Plans never go through with-j out a hitch. There is always a a need for everyone to make] changes, to try harder or to Start j over. Everyone has disappoint-j k ments. Everyone fails. Some; frankly Speaking] By Frans Huberts The great interest shown our Celebrity Calls program is, in-' deed, gratifying. It’s one of the t many firsts we have here at .WCDJ, and we’re mighty proud of it. When I first started the show, though, I must confess I didn’t realize the time it would occupy hnd some of the other difficulties involved. However, "once I do get through to the person I want to talk to, I know uthat it’s worth the ■ troubles. 'Jhese people are all well-known in their fields, and, for the most sart, the things they have to »y are quite interesting, par ticularly since they’re .talking to ils on a local level. Many folks t(ave asked me how the people <J|ve spoken to last month were, here’s a rundown; a gumma*-| tion of August Celebrity Calls. I Number one call went to famed character actor Sidney Blackmer. However, Tom Shields spoke to Mr. Blackmer. Tom reports he w|s very pleasant, a ‘far cry from the many villainous roles hej does in the movies. Then I: talked to Governor Hodges in an interview that wound up making news headlines around the state. Getting the governor was easier than I’d anticipated. Just phon ed the state capital and there he was. After that I spoke to one of the most famous-countOM artists in the nation, Earl Scrdggs. Earl and I insisted we] had a bad connection; the opera tor insisted we didn’t. We re-j cordfed the interview, and it was tough, since we cpuld hardly] hear each other. However, he: was most cooperative and made) for a pleasant interview. Next I spoke to Mitch Miller. He’s! one of the easiest people in’ business to talk to. I’d] met him before, and knew thati he would talk about music, music, music. He’s sincere, a finq musician, a- p 1 easant gentle man. a credit ■fd” 1 th'e®’MHSfd > ' fW dustry, and can he talk! For tunately, what he says is worth listening to. After Mitch Miller, I spoke to the Republican nomi nee for governor of North Caro lina, Robert Gavin. Mr. Gavin struck me as sincere (some might prefer the word anxious), and was very curious about the political leanings of our ares. My next conversation was.

I It is easy to complain. The dis- 1 dicult response to disappoint ment is cheerful courage and optimistic trying. We hear some people com plain “I never win anything”; “I always have the most trou ble"; “Everything goes against me”. If that were true we wouldn't be long for this world. We must win most of the time or we wouldn’t be living. So with that start, let’s count our! blessings. Expect things to goj Wrong many tinves but plan to ! keep trying.. Yob can keep your ['life under control by- relining your bad breaks. V Expect the 'road to be bumpy,' but keep ; smiling and keep on driving. i lieve, one of the most interest ing in the series. I spoke to Dr. George Gallup, of the Gallupl poll. Dr. Gallup was complete-j ly cooperative, and thoroughly) interesting. Next, came.a con-j versa tion with the Democratic j nominee for governor of the Tar Heel State, Terry Sanford. He was most anxious to talk to the people in our area, via Celebrity Calls, thus was most coopera-j tive. Like Mr. Gavin, he struck! me as being sincere in his be-j liefs. -I also noted he seemed| a bit less worried than Mr. Ga vin. I spoke to both gentlemen at length before the actual Ce lebrity Call was made. My next conversation was with Warren Hull. We spoke of his career, from leading man in the cinema, to his career with the old Vox Pop program, to his success with “Strike It Rich”. He was about as pleasant as most of his fans] 1 believe him to be. A very easy- I going manner and an interesting conversationalist. Next, our first venture into sports, as I spoke) to the number one golf-pro, Ar nold Palmer. 1 As with most sports figures, he was a bit harder to communicate with, but jhe was most pleasant. Natural ly, sports figures aren’t as out going as those in politics or show business. !My next inter view, and the first lady on this program, featured Mrs. Lyndon Johnson. She was as sweet and pleasant as could be and it was j .delight- talking to this charming woman. Next came ! Lester Lanin, leader of Ameri- I ca’s number one dance band. [Cooperative and most pleasant. 'Gabriel Heatter wps. next in: i what I consider, at this point, !to be the most ‘ interesting in- { terview in the series. Mr. Heat- 1 ter was as nice as could be, ; which made it easy to interview ’ him, and thoroughly outspoken I ] (as he has been for these many 1 i years) which made it an inter-j esting interview. [So interesting,! it was repeated on Celebrity] Cahty I had more trouble getting him] on the phone than anyone else, I but once I got him it made for an enjoyable three or four min-1 ute interview. After that was! Bennet Cerf. Again; the opera- 1 tor insisted our _copnectioa .was good; again we could hardly hear each other. Mr. Cerf, though, was most amiable, most’ interesting, just as he appears to the many “What’s My Line” viewers. Going into September we’ll have many other people to talk to to. provide us with an extremely interesting few min utes on “Celebrity Calls.” Mon day, Wednesday and Friday at 7:45.

You may be wishing for more space now so you can get more of those big, ripe peaches in the freezer. Miss Nita Orr, frozen food specialist for the N. C. Agricul tural Extension Service, advises •you to count the corn cobs now. Corn oh the cob is an extrava gant user of space. However, il [you feel you must freeze some jon the cob, use the corn with small cpbs—for example, Sene ca ’ Chief. Large -bones have.no place in the freezer! Boned meat is easier to carve, easier to serve, and easier to eat. Miss Orr says you can store three tur key rolls or one turkey with : its bones in the same space. A good freezing bag in fa ’l sturdy carton uses space well. Cornered pans for cakes, pies ' and other cooked foods are bet- J ! ter than round ones. They wrap! ! easier and stack better. I “Extra wrapping on meat and •poultry slows up freezing and does no good in storage,” says I Miss Orr. “Use just enough to I cover the food and to make a (tight closure.” ( Keep your food moving in the j freezer. Keep up with what ypu put in and what you take out. If you manage your freez er space right, you ftan put more food into it. COMPLETES WAC COURSE Private Hildra V. Privott, daughter of Mrs. Nancy V.

They are speaking of more than a noble dream; they declare something that is ob tainable. War is not inevitable. Its reign of brutalty, terror, and destruction can be ended. En during peace, as a working and practical relationship between nations all over the world, can be established. The pessimists of the world declare with great loudness and regularity: “There always have been wars, and there always will be wars. That’s human nature, and you can’t change it.” They go on to use the present plight of the world as reason for assuming the worst is inescapable. “It’s only a matter of time," they say, “and we’ll be having our atomic war with Russia and China.” It is on the basis of such fa talism that politicians advocate suicidal national policies which invite war, even as did the poli j ticians of Isaiah’s day. And, ac cepting the inevitability of war, an increasingly large segment of our population is being lulled with the assumption that atomic war will not be so bad after all, and that it will be “just another war.” But despite all this, we !have the inherent and unalieni -1 able right to believe that peace Continued on Page 6—Section 2 WHITE OAK CHAPEL BAPTIST REV.
