Clear Skies Mark
By MARY PARTIN
Saturday was a perfect
day for the Edenton Peanut
Festival parade. The 34
units proceeded under clear,
sun-filled skies in tem
peratures just right for
early fall.
The Edenton Jaycees,
directed by parade chair
man Gary Anderson, are to
be congratulated on con
tributing so much time and
hard work in putting
together a successful
parade that delighted
hundreds of “kids” from a
few months old to many
years old.

THE CHOWAN HERALD
Supported by area
businessmen and many
volunteers, the Peanut
Festival allowed visitors
and local citizens to enjoy an
old-fashioned harvest time
celebration. Peanuts were
everywhere as dignitaries
A1 Everson and Peggy Ann
Vaughan, co-chairpersons
of the second annual Peanut
Festival, threw them to
crowds that lined the streets
of Broad for the climatic
grand parade. Clowns were
also along the parade route
to entertain and to share
peanuts with everyone.
At the fairgrounds one
Successful Peanut Festival
could participate- in or
watch the horse show that
was in session all afternoon.
Spectators were filled with
happiness as they enjoyed
the luxury of watching this
special sport. The Chowan 4-
H Horse and Pony Club and
its leaders donated a lot of
time in arranging the show
for the band parents.
Other events that proved
to be crowd pleasers were
the sack races, peanut spoon
races and relays for dif
ferent age groups. Some
even attempted to get a grip
on things by entering the
greased flagpole contest.
Suchactiveparticipants kept
the leaders of the Edenton-
Chowan Recreation
Department moving to keep
up with the winners of the
races.
During intermission of the
horse show, drawings took
place for a Zenith portable
television and an Artex
portable stereo-phonograph.
Herman Jordan, Route 2,
Hertford was the surprised
recipient of the television
while Pat Rountree of Route
1, Edenton was the winner of
the phonograph.
Mr. Peanut was honored
during intermission through
the arts. Much creative
talent and expression
abounds in our schools as
was evident through peanut
drawings entered for
judging. First place winner
was Vickie Chappell of
Chowan High School, who
received a $25.00 savings
bond. Jill Stutzman, first
runner-up from John A.
Holmes, was awarded $5.00.
Honorable mention all
receiving awards of $5.00
each went to David Lee
Winslow of Chowan High,

back riders lead by Claude Roberson, a local man with a talent for recreating the style of the
Old West.

For the celebrants
wandering around the
fairgrounds there was
plenty to eat and drink as
Mickey Spruill, chairman of
concessions, and Joe
Swanner, chairman of the
barbecue sales, kept the
food available at all times.
Joe Swanner was aware a
full work day awaited him
since the ticket sales by
band students had been
successful.
Kathleen O’Connell, Pam
Albritton, Susan Miller,
Paul Amburn, Patricia
Flanagan, Allan Clark, and
Bill Nowell were all leading
salespeople. For their
tremendous effort each
received free passes to the
Taylor Theater.
Whether one thinks of the
parade, concerts, royal
float, horse show, arts,
special events, dances or
food, the Edenton-Chowan
Band Parents Association
has a satisfied feeling,
knowing the second annual

For Women Over 40
As a woman approaches
menopause, and when the
change of life is over, she
should be especially aware
of any unusual or heavy
bleeding. While it may not
be serious, the American
Cancer Society says that
unexpected bleeding might
signal a form of uterine
cancer. The ACS says if you
notice anything unusual, see
a physician.
