Southport Men Visit Raleigh A party of Southport Jaycees, headed by President Kirby Sulli van and including Mayor Eddie Hahn, Roger Ward and Ronnie Hood. journeyed to Raleigh Thursday to help in the promo tion of Southport industry. The local group spent the en tire day in the Capital city, mak ing calls at the offices of the N. C. Division of Industrial Educa tion: on M. C. Henderson. Jr., assistant director of N. C. Prison enterprises; on William R. Hen derson. head of the Commerce and Industry Development Dept., and wound up at the executive office and a talk with Gov. Terry Sanford. Primary purpose of the trip was to gather suggestions and advice on the format for an in dustrial brochure. According to Sullivan, the trip was well worth while. Sullivan said that we picked up some excellent pointers from the state experts. Actually, we i had a rough drafting of our folder already prepared. We were informed that the brochure need- J ed to be condensed somewhat [ and. above all. that it should be illustrated. This last suggestion led to the Prison Enterprises office, where: the local Jaycees were assured their folder would be printed at Central Prison's print shop. Presi- . dent Sullivan stated that “every1 official we contacted at Raleigh was most cooperative.” Sullivan added that the state’s j chief executive compared Hawaii with Southport, or maybe it was vice versa, when Sanford recalled being 'somewhere on that en chanted string of islands which make up the 50th state, with a town at his head and the ocean at his feet, and, turning to Mrs. Sanford, remarked: ‘Honey, doesn't this remind you of South port?” The investment in agriculture amounts to $199,300,300.00. This is % the value of current assets of all corporations in the United Statee.

C. — RO 3-6221 Two Supervisors Made Available The Brunswick County School system has been allotted an ad ditional supervisor for the 1961 1962 School year, according to Superintendent John G. Long. This will bring the total allotment of supervisors for the County School System up to two. During the past few years Brunswick County has been al lotted only one supervisor, who supervised all elementary schools in the county. This position has been filled during the past three years by Mrs. Mary Caldwell, who resigned in May to join her hus band who is stationed in Panama. Mrs. CaldWell will teach in Pana ma during the next school year. Both these supervisory positions in Brunswick County should be filled within a few days, according to Superintendent Long. Church To Lend Extra Classroom Members of the official board of Trinity Methodist Church in Southport voted Sunday morning to grant permission to Southport school authorities for the use of the old parsonage in which to hold a class this fall. This was done in order to make it possible for the Southport school to take advantage of the offer for one additional high school teacher this fall. It also was done with the stipulation that construction begin on new classrooms at the local high school within 60 days from the date that school opens. Church officials explained that this was done in order that use of the building should not serve as an excuse for further delay in construction of needed space. The object was to help the local school qualify for the extra teacher help and to afford teaching space while construction is in progress. Funeral Monday For Mark Fargusson Word was received here Sun day of the death at Camp Butner of Mark Fargusson, whose age was officially listed as 96. There are many local residents who knew him for years who are of the opinion that he was more than 100 years of age at the time of his death. Fargusson had been a patient at the hospital at Camp Butner for the past 10 years, but for a half-century prior to that time he was a well-known figure in this community. His chief came from the fact that he was a civil en gineer, and as such was responsi ble for many of the surveying records on which property rights DRUG STORE YOUR PRESCRIPTION DRUG STORE We ■ Glue • 24 Hour Service Two Registered Druggist Phillip L.

A picture similar to this is “Godzilla". This picture takes place in Japan, starring Raymond Burr, better known as Perry Mason on TV similar to a dragon, fire comes from the monsters mouth. Producer Albert Zugsmith has made another successful picture, “The Private Lives of Adam and Eve”. It stars Mickey Rooney, Mamie Van Doren and Paul Anka, who sings several songs. This is supposed to be very funny. If Zugsmith did as good on this as his others it's bound to be pretty good. He made “Dondi”, “High School Confidential" and “College Confidential”. This is a very un usual picture and should be en joyable. Deborah Walley has taken the place of Sandra Dee as Gidget. Deborah stars in "Gidget Goes in Southport are based. His funeral services were at the graveside at Oakdale Cemetery in Wilmington Monday afternoon.
