Through centuries Christ has stood before the world with transcendent beauty and power, but he does not force man to re spond to his appeal. Each must make his •own decision as to whether or not he will accept and follow him. May we, today, open our hearts and give Jesus supreme place in our lives, reconse crating ourselves to his service, we pray, O Lord. Saved By The Glow If 25 states think “safety” license plates are valuable enough as accident preventers to issue them to all motorists, the other 25 should at least consider them. Half the states HAVE adopted light reflective “safety” plates that glow so brightly at night they can be seen for 2.000 feet. Eight states replaced their ordinary painted plates with the refleclive kind by enacting new laws during 1965 legislative sessions. They are Illinois, North Carolina, Vermont, Arkansas, Ne vada, Nebraska, Montana and Oklahoma. Before voting for reflective plates, ev ery one of these eight state legislatures considered impartial study results such as these: ITEM: In Maine .the annual number of nighttime collisions with parked cars dropped 58 per cent from 1950 (when the state first issued reflective tags) to 1965, compared with the five years be fore 1950, according to Maine State Tolice. ITEM: Nighttime property damage collisions involving parked and disabled cars dropped 74 per cent in Minnesota during the second year after reflectivr plates were issued, the National Safety Council reported. ITEM: Prof. Edward G. Brown of the University of Washington studied the experience of all reflective-plate states in a comprehensive study for the Washing ton state legislature. As a result, he rec ommended that the 1965 legislature adopt reflective plates. Next year, the legislatures of 14 states will have a chance to adopt reflective license plates, thus rectifying what we think has been an oversight. The states are Alaska, Colorado, Georgia, Kentucky, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mis sissippi, New Jersey, New York. Penn sylvania, Rhode Island, South Carolina and Virginia. Perhaps some day every car on the highways of every state will be marked with the warning glow of a “safety” plate at night.

Ballenger’s article follows: Big Bill Griffin is a formidable man, standing 6-6 and tipping the scales at 248 pounds. Those figures make him easily the biggest football player it* the Shrine Bowl, a - fatet that makes Tar Heel Coach Clyde Walker smile a little because the monster from Edenton is on his side. “Bill’s a big man all right,” Walker says, ‘but he is very maneuverable for his size.” He is also from the smallest school rep resented on the North Carolina roster. Eden ton is a 2-A school located in the northeast corner of the state and coached by Gerald McGee, brother of Duke All-American Mike McGee. This year the Edenton squad marched to a 12-0 record as they took their quarter of the state 2-A title. “The closest anybody came to beating us was 20-6,” Big Bill explains it. “We played Ahoskie twice and got them 21-7 in the first game, then 20-6 in the second one. That’s as close as anybody got to us ... ” They went out of their class in one game, playing tough Elizabeth City of the 3-A ranks. “That was our finest game,” Griffin says. “It was my best game and it was the team’s best game. We beat ’em 26-0 and I guess that’s the thing I’m proudest of —next to being in the Shrine Bowl.” He has played three years of varsity ball at Edenton, starting out as a callow sopho more of only 215 pounds. Last year he weighed in at 230 pounds and now the full 248. “I think I’ll be at a playing weight of around 255 or 260 when I get to college,” he says. “I don’t have much trouble carry ing it ... ” He has plenty of college offers. A spot checks shows at least 11 institutions that have already bid for his services and if he continues to hit in practice as he did yes terday, there will probably be a lot more. “These guys oijt here really are hitting,” he said, perspiration cascading off his brow in king sized droplets. “I’ve never been hit this hai-d before. It’s quite a change. To day I hit with Mike Bobbitt (223) and Ronnie Carpenter (237) and they gave me a good working over.” He gave them back some of the same in spades. The big guy from the little school isn’t having too much trouble moving up in classification. o Leonard Bass up at the Sunoco Service Station was delighted the other day when he received a letter from the Sun Oil Com pany. The letter from A. J. Johnston, Jr., district manager, congratulated BaSs on be ing one of the top 10 dealers in the Nor folk District with regard to Sunoco’s “Go First Class” Appearance Campaign. Mr. Johnston told Bass that in the near future he and his wife will be invited to attend a dinner in appreciation for his work. o Members of the Chowan Scottish Rite Club are gathering toys, clothing and food to be distributed among the needy in the community during the Christmas holidays Miss Glenna Quinn, in charge of the project, urges anyone who will make contributions if any kind to take them to the Edenton Fire Station. o And speaking about the holidays, there’ll be a lot of parties and meals served from now until Christmas. And I’ll go along with Malvin Parham. Malvin says that with so much crop failures blamed on nematodes, he wished nematodes would at tack the green pea crop so that they’re not on about every menu served at a banquet. o Edenton’s Christmas parade was just about one of the best ever. It was my privilege to ride in the front of the parade due to the absence of Mayor John Mitch ener, who had to be out of town. Riding at the forefront was quite an advantage, for I got out and then watched the entire parade. The floats were especially attrac tive, so that the judges no doubt had a dif ficult time picking the winners. Oh, yes. Winks Bond, sitting with me in the car, commented upon me having on my “Sunday best” and enjoined me to smoke my pipe so people would know who I was. And I did just that.
