the rehearsal will then continue with se

semble and organ.
The society represents one of several
fine arts programs initiated in the fall of
.1964 under the supervision of the College
of the Albemarle Adult Education and
Community Services Division, then head
ed by Tivis Wicker under the auspices of
the Fine Arts Division Committee of the
Albemarle Area Development Associa
tion.
Membership in the society, which re
cently was incorporated as a permanent
state-chartered and non-profit organiza
tion under the supervision of the COA
Adult Education Division, is open to all
singers of senior high school age and
over. The average yearly membership
over the past five years has been 81.
Major works which the society has
performed over the last five years in its
spring and winter concerts include: “Re
joice, Beloved Christians” by Buxtehude,
“A Christmas Oretorio” by Saint Saens,
“The Messiah” by Handel and “The
Bartered Bride”, a comic opera by
Smetana. Some of their works were
performed on joint programs with the
N. C. Little Symphony, the Ciampi
String Quartet and the East Carolina
String Ensemble. The comic opera was
completely staged with orchestral accom
paniment and was staged by the So
ciety’s director, Dr. Clifford Bair, and
Mrs. Lucy Vaughan, director of the COA
Satyrs. The orchestra was made up of
players from the Norfolk Symphony and
the Elizabeth City High School Band
and was directed by Scott Callaway.
.- In addition to its two major programs
yearly, the Society has supplied choral
forces for light opera shows, has appear
ed on the N. C. Educational TV circuit
and presented programs at various ban
quets.
The society’s officers, director anji
members are grateful for the opportunity
of having played a vital role in the area’s
cultural growth over the past five years
and on the occasion of the Society’s Fifth
Anniversary, pledge renewal devotion to
a fuller realization of the Society’s aims
in the years to come.
Instead of worrying about where the
next international crisis will occur, we
might concentrate on being ready to
meet one.

Lorch Stallings Just about made me tick
one day last week. Ha came in the shop
with a package in which was wrapped
two speckled perch which looked more
like the size of a shad than speckled perch.
Lorch said he and Leroy Skinner at long
last got into ’em and landed 35, moet of
which were about the size of those Lorch
was showing off. And at a time when I’m
unable to try my luck.
o
So many “weeks” are observed these
days that it’s hard to name them all. But
if “Turkey Week” is not observed, it should
be. With so many turkeys on die dinner
table for Thanksgiving, a lot of us will be
eating some form of turkey for about a
week hence this should be “Turkey
Week."
o
Leroy Haskett and hie sister, Mrs. W.
C. Bunch, have returned home after visit
ing their very sick brother, Carlton Has
kett, at Fort Myers, Fla. Friend Haskett
said he had a new experience by being
able to jump into a swimming pool, then
pick oranges and grapefruit from trees at
the Haskett home and go back in the house
to eat what he said was the best fruit he
ever tasted. Anyway, here’s hoping my
long-time friend Carlton will be able to re
gain his health.
o
Just in case anyone is interested, the
Methodist Men’s Club will serve another
pickled herring breakfast at the church
Saturday morning. The hours are from 7
to 9 o’clock and, as usual, a person is al
lowed to eat all he or she wants for only
a buck. Those in charge of the breakfast
hope a large crowd will turn out.
o
At this time of year a lot of us receive
requests from various orphanages, child
hen’s homes, etc., for a Thanksgiving and
Christmas contribution. Os course, there’s
some people who do not contribute, giving
as their reason that “charity should begin
at home.” But like I heard a fellow say
the other day, “it usually ends there, too.”
Anyway orphanages and children’s homes
and hospitals can use contributions and to
be sure any contribution will be greatly
appreciated.
o
A lot of people look forward to retiring,
but a lot of times retirement is not so hot.
Such was the case with former Edentonian
Ralph R. Hall, who now lives at Green
ville. A note from him read: “Retirement
got too old, so I accepted a position as pro
ject director for the Board of Education of
Pitt County Schools. So I guess the fish
will have to wait.”
o
Not too much praise can be heaped on
the Edenton Aces for going through the
football season with 12 victories and only
one defeat, and that at the hands of pow
erful Northeastern High of Elizabeth City.
It was a happy crowd of Edenton fans at
Goldsboro Friday night when the Aces ran
rough shod over South Stanley High 48-26.
To be such a winner it takes a group of
stars, so that every member of the squad
is entitled to some of the credit for becom
ing Eastern champions in the 2-A Confer
ence. This year, though, there was an ex
ceptional star in Joe Bunch for his educat
ed toe which sent the ball through the up
rights for extra points 42 times out of 49
attempts and that’s a record any place
kicker would be proud of. Os course, the
extra point was not needed to win any
game this year, but that extra point often
means the difference between a victory or
defeat. Northeastern North Carolina has
been in the football limelight this year.
The Aces have won the Eastern 2-A Con
ference championship and next door North
eastern won the Eastern 3-A conference
title over Lumberton 21-0. Besides, Man
teo was Eastern champion in 1-A Confer
ence and lost the state title to Robbinsville
14-8. Which only goes to show that foot
ball is a very popular sport in this neck
of the woods.
o
This (Thursday) afternoon Santa Claus
is scheduled to come to Edenton, when a
parade will march down Broad Street. And
here’s hoping the weatherman will be kind
with agreeable weather so that youngsters
(and adults, too) can enjoy the affair.

stronger after each game. The team
scored 114 points in three playoff games.
The defense played a big role in this,
accounting for six touchdowns in the
playoffs.
While hesitant to single out any play
er Coach Kirby did point to the work
of Joe Bunch a sophomore who had an.
“exceptional” year for a newcomer. “He
put his foot in the ball 51 times and
got 48 points” he noted.
Also Mike Lamb’s running gave the
Aces the hard-nosed effect in the back
field according to the coach.
Earl Chesson who was moved to quar
terback after the season began com
pleted 60 per cent of his passes in the
last seven games.
Chesson’s passing gave the Aces a
chance to use Gigi Leary more for long
pass patterns. Leary received high
praise from the coach for both his of
fensive and defensive work during the
year.
“Johnny Barrow stepped forward and
was the emotional leader”, Coach Kirby
said. “Elliott Harrell teamed with him
to give us the best linebacking in the
conference.”
“We’re just real pleased with the way
things happened,” he added.
What about next year? Coach Kirby
had rather continue the current season.
There were 22 seniors on the squad.

OPERATION SANTA CLAUS
Each year the Yeopim 4-H Club par
ticipates in the Edenton Christinas Pa
rade. This year as the main theme for
their float, the 4-H’ers have chosen “Op
eration Santa Claus”. “Operation Santa”
is a project in which all 4-H’ers share
a part of their Christmas with the boys
and girls at Caswell School for mentally
retarded children.
Already 4-H Clubs have made plans
on what they can do to help cheer up
these boys and girls at Christmas time,
Many times these children at Caswell
School are forgotten at such a joyous
occasion so you, the people of Chowan
County join these 4-H’ers in making
these children have a very Merry Christ
mas and do yours.
If you wish to take part in “Operation
Santa Claus”, gifts may be large wagons,
large. tricycles, gun and holster sets,
popcorn poppers, record players, tea sets,
rubber balls and large squeeze toys.
Please try to mail all. packages before
December 15 in order for them to arrive
on time. Also, cash donations will be
appreciated in order to purchase one
large gift for all the children.
Be sure to pay special attention to
the Yeopim 4-H Club float on Thurs
day, December 4, at 4 P. M., in the
Edenton parade.
That’s Debbie’s article.
P. S. to Debbie: You could -have
made it even easier by having it type
