This interesting' arrangement of senatorial campaign banners intrigued Young Democrats at their re
cent regional rally in Asheville. First, supporters of Willis Smith put up their sign. Soon, adherents of
Bob Reynolds spread their banner above Smith’s sign. A little later Senator Frank Graham’s supporters
topped them all with their slogan: “Frank Graham is Already There." Smith is the only one of the three
who is not a native of North Carolina. Smith was born in Norfolk, Virginia.—(Photo courtesy of the Ashe

The Pirate
By: Tlie Three Buccaneers
(Kat, Jan and Peg.)
This has. been quite a week,
especially for the juniors. Every
spare minute has been spent in
making preparations for the ban
quet. But first let us tell you the
news from the beginning.
'Tuesday the Shallotte Pirates
took over Southport by a score
of 10 to .5, j
The game scheduled for Friday
with the Wilmington Junior Var
sity was postponed because of . the
banquet. ’
Several of the grammar'grades
had picnics this week.
Friday chapel was conducted
by the sophomore girls. Rev.
James Carroll, a Methodist minis
ter, made a very enjoyable talk.
From Monday until Friday eve
ning the juniors spent their spare
time getting • moss, pine trees,
palmetto trees, hanging stream
ers, making place cards, memory
books and menus, getting straw
and grass and making palmetto
trees. Some of the palmetto trees
were made and some were real.
I Friday night was the big night.
When the guests arfiver they were
surprised to see that the gymnas
ium had been made into a beauti
ful Hawaiian island. Yellow, blue,
and orange streamers hung over
the entrance with a background
om moss. In the main part of the
gym, streamers from all the sides
met in the center. There was a
white bulb, under which hung
streamers, that hung where the
; paper met and reflected light on
; the multicolor of streamers: Along
each . side stood palm trees.
| Around them was moss, ivy, and
.fern. Dim lights cast, shadows
(through them. At the end opposite
j the door was a hand painted un
jderwater scene, which was painted
. by Miss Butler, a grammar grade
! teacher. Among the sea animals
j were fish, octopus, a treasure
chest, and the most lovely of all,
’ a merman! Around the painting
were palm trees, grass and fern.
Music was furnished by a juke
box, which stood in one corner.
The waitresses were dressed ap
propriately in grass skirts. The
Candidate For Sheriff
Friends, the way I feel about it is this: As much as
I would like to be Sheriff of Brunswick county I do not
want the job bad enough to make promises and com
mittments that would make it impossible for me to do
my duty after I am elected. The only promise I have
made is the one I repeat now to all good citizens: If
nominated and elected I will do everything in my pow
er to give this county clean, impartial law enforcement.

! menu consisted of fruit juice,
baked ham, pineapple, green

class, we would like to thank

and everyone who helped make '
this banquet possible. Also we .
would like to show our apprecia- ,
tion to Miss Butler and the other ,
