We must protect people from criminals,
and our children from becoming criminals
Ed O’Herron believes that swift
apprehension, speedy trials, and
stiff sentences are deterrents to
crime. We have to stop pamper
ing criminals. Ed O’Herron will use
the full power of the governor’s
office to get repeat offenders off
the streets and into the prisons.
Ed O’Herron believes we must
also fight crime by giving all young
people the opportunity to earn a
good, honest living.
This means giving children a
meaningful education and bring
ing better paving jobs to North
Carolina.

As the closing night of the
first season nears (August 14),
Mr. Kershaw gives his assess
ment of the venture in one
phrase- ’’it has exceeded
every expectation.” It has
achieved ^is distinction thru
the genius of Randolph Um-
berger who wrote the story of
Henry Berry Lowrie and the
exceptional ability of Dr. Ar
thur McDonald who took 65
amateur actors and changed
them into professionals. Add
to this the moving and haun
ting music of Willie Lowery
and the result is one of the
finest dramas being performed
in the United States today.
But all of this would not
have been possible if it had not
been for the initials efforts of
Hector MacLean, Chairman of
the Robeson Historical Drama
Inc. from 1968-74 and his
successor, Adolph Dial, who
made the dream of a historical
drama of the Lumbee Indians
become a reality. Without his
work in raising money to start
and continue the work involv
ed in the presentation of this
drama, there would have been
no drama.
The Amphitheatre is com
pletely paid for- not only
because of the contributions of
money but also because of the
many who contributed their
time, their equipment, their
expertise- such as Russell
Oxendine, Bob Van Hoy, Bob
Collins, the Pembroke Jay-
cees. Without their valuable
assistance, the amphitheatre
could not have been built
andpaid for in the first season
of operation.
To keep the drama moving,
37 young people have been
employed full-time. They work
long and hard at their Jobs-
some arrive early in the
morning do not finish until
after midnight.
The result of all these efforts
has been a drama which has
earned excellent reviews, and
which has been widely adver
tised in magazines, news
papers, on radio and television
and through publicity releases
which have been sent through
out the eastern seaboard.
Attendance at Strike at the
Wind has been excellent, in
fact some performances have
been sell-outs, with people
being turned away. The au
diences have not only been
Robeson County people but
also many tourists from our
own state, and as far away as
Canada and California. The
word spreads that this is truly
an outstanding historical dra
ma and next season we will
draw still more tourists.
The Lost Colony has been
running for some 37 years and
Unto These Hills has been
performed even longer. Strike
at the Wind is now completing
its first year and without a
doubt it will be in performance
fifty years from now.
President-elect Bernard Low
ry presided at the meeting and
the guest speaker was intro
duced by Ken Johnson. Visi
tors were John Entrekin of
Florida and Bahnson Barnes of
Lumberton. The guest speaker
next Tuesday will be Dr.
Andre Nadeau ofPSU who will
report on the Olympics at
Montreal which he attended
this summer.
