WILL CONDEMN LANDS OF *
SUN ORE ST LUMBER CO.
The North Carolina Park Commis
sion, Tuesday, began an action in the
snjterior court of Buncombe county,
seeking to condemn the lands of the
Suncrest Lumber Company lor the
purposes of the Great Smoky Moun
tains National Park.
The lands comprise some 25,000
ncres in the Great Smokies; and the
petition asking that the land be con
demned was filed under verification
by Mark Squires, chairman of the
North CarolinaPark commission, and
asks the court to summons immediate
ly the lumber comany and two other
defendants into court to show cause
why the state should not acquire ti
tle to the land.
The other defendants are the Union
Trust Company, an Illinois corjiora
tiou, and Frederick H. ltawson, a
trustee, and resident of Cook county,
Illinois. They are named as having an
interest in the land the state seeks,
holding this interest under two deeds
of trust filed in Haywood county
several years ago.
The petitioner states that the de
fendant lumber company is now en
gaged in cutting timber oil' the tract
and doing other acts which are
changing the character and value of
the land. For this reason the court
is asked to issue a restraining order
against the company preventing it
from further acts of the kind pend
ing the outcome of the condcmnatio.i
proceedings. j
The petition also requests that the.
court upon hearing ap]>oiut commis
sioners to assess what compensation!
migth rightfully be paid to the de-:
fendants for the land.
The suit was filed under an act ;
passed by the last state assembly, I
February 25, 1927, to provide forj
the acquisition of |mrks and reerca-i
tional facilities in the Great Smokv!
Mountains and which vests in th?*|
state the power of eminent domain !
to ae.jnire land and condemn projier
ty tor such purpose?.
The property sought in the end
ing action is located on the waters Oi r
j^ttmight-Fiuk and Bunch Creek oi
tSf Ocona Lufty river and the Catc- :
looehee creek, a tributary of the.
Pigeon river. [
Tlif action follows the suit, a few
months ago, in which t he Sunerest
Company sought an s injiiiiction
against tlu- Park Commission, re
straining it from acquiring title to
the projK'rty. Judge Webb, in federal
court, disolved the injunction, and !
the Sunerest Company appealed. Last j
week, bond buyers refused to pur
chase Xorth Carolina Park bonds un
til the suit is settled. The Park Com
mission is now seeking to condemn |
the lands, clear up the matter, audi
proceed with the work of establishing
the big park.

OULLOWHEE STATE NORMAL
READJUSTS CURRICULA
The Cnllowhccc State Normal!
School lias readjusted its curricula in'
order to hotter serve the peculiar j
needs of Western North Carolina,;
according to information given oin.
by President Hunter.
Jn his statement to the prvss,
President Hunter said:
?'After conferences with injur
normal school people and with the
State Su]>erintendc!it of Public In
struction, and after talking with a
large number of influential citizens
j of Western' North Carolina, I be
came convinced that these two ad
justments could be made iir our pro
gram without in the least hurting
our teacher training work;first, that
a number of elective subjects from
i the liberal arts field could be offered,
j thus making it possible for one who
intended to be a teacher to secure
I part of her work in liberal arts sub
j jects in which she might be inter
' ested; second, that students who were
not definitely committed to a teacher
training program might be permitted
for the first year to elect subjects
rather liberally, thus giving them a
period of a full session in the atmos
phere of a teacher training institu
tion and with the council of a teacher
college faculty in which to settle lite
question intelligently as to whether
I they wanted to become teachers.
| .We are making these two ad.just
j ments this -year. -A half dozen or
| more new courses are being offered,
; including French, Mathematics, Clieni
t istrv, History, English, etc. Quite a
: number of students, esj)ccially young
men, are taking a combination of
liberal arts and professional courses.
Many of these students will probably
later enter the teaching profession
which will be a very desirable result.
I should like to make this point
especially clear ? those students who
j want the State Teachers' Certificate,
that is who want especially to prc
ipare for the teaching profession,
| must meet minimum professional re
i quircments which have been approved
! by the State Department of Ednca
j tion. Some students may want to
J spewl more than two years at Cullo
I wljgfe, covering both academic and
professional work, and by so doing be
prepared to enter the junior year
when leaving here in either a liberal
I arts college or a teachers' college.
