"STRIKE AT THE WIND!*'
ATTENDANCE UP THIS YEAR
PEMBROKE. NC-"Strike
at the Wind!" attendance is
up this year according to
Carnell Locklear. General
Manager. "1 think the weath
er has a great deal to do with
our attendance," stated
Locklear. "And also the fact
of a devoted cast, rewritten
script, more music, color and
a great deal of action. The
drama has to survive because
it is the only form of a play the
Indians have that relives the
past so our future generations
can see our past which is full
of Indian heritage and cul
ture."
When one speaks of a
devoted cast of people he
speaks of people such as
Steve Swint, Jenny Hazen and
Bobby Oxendine.
-Jenny Hazen plays the
character of Dolly King, wife
of Ruben King. Jenny- plays
this character well and pur
sues the character with a
great deal of feeling. She is a
school teacher in the Marlbo
ro County School System.
Steve Swint portrays the
character of Ruben King,
Sheriff of Robeson County
during the Henry Berry Low
rie years. Steve also serves in
the capacity of Master Prop
person. Steve is a devoted
person and he really feels the
character of Ruben King.
Steve is employed at Revco
Drugs in Red Springs, N.C.
He says he thinks the drama
is going very well and the
attendance is just great. He
noted: "When one hits the
stage and sees a big audience
it really makes the cast want
to work much harder to please
the audience."
Bobby Oxendine, son of
Mr. and Mrs. Bobby Oxen
dine of Pembroke portrays the
character of Andrew King,
son of Ruben and Dolly King.
Bobby is a devoted person,
especially to be so young. The
