Commissioner Booth indicated that he thought the people of the several areas should get together on a site, while Commissioner Holding stated that he needed more time for study.

Commissioner Holding denied any such intention, and Davis said that he had not agreed with any of the commissioners to take such action. “I have confidence in the Wake County Board of Commissioners,” Davis said yesterday, “and when they vote without dissent to make a study, I believe it is because they think the matter requires such study, whether is has to do with schools, welfare, or library services.” Davis stated that he felt the matter could be resolved by the application of common sense. He described as “unfortunate” the statement by Superintendent Smith that he (Smith) would not permit the consolidated high school to be constructed on cer tain sites. “When such decisions are made by the Superintendent of Schools instead of the Board of Educa tion” Davis said, “the Board of Education has abdicated its re sponsibilities in favor of the su perintendent.” Almost immediately after the meeting Monday, rumors began to be circulated that an effort would be made to keep the legislature from electing Davis to the Coun ty Board of Education. Similar rumors were circulated two years ago when Mrs. John Q. Adams of Willow Springs was elected to the board.

Besides tending the boiler and sweeping chores, Boyette cares for the lawn and campus. There is approximately one-half acre of lawn which is always beautifully cut and trimmed. “The children don’t mar the lawn and shrubbery very much,” Boyette said. “Used to they play ed on it more, causing it to be damaged. Now they don’t do that.” Boyette rises about 4:30 in the mornings to get the boilers going. In real cold weather he gets the fires going around four o’clock. Fifty-six-year-old Boyette is the son of H. T. Boyette and the late Mrs. Boyette. The second oldest of nine children, he was born in the Rock Ridge community of Wil son County. His family moved to the Corinth community in 1919. He regrets not having finished high school. When he left school, he was taking eighth grade Eng lish, ninth grade Latin, and tenth grade history. “I was helping my father farm and going to school at the same time,” he said. “Then I decided to quit school and take on the janitorial duties.” His beginning salary was $48 a month, “and I got married on that,” he laughed. His wife is the former Repsie Corbe'tt, daughiter of Mrs. Jo seph Corbett of Route 1, Middle sex, and the late Mr. Corbett. The couple were married April 16, 1927, by a justice of the peace in Smithfield Court House. “We met at a commencement exercise,” Boyette said, looking at his wife as if to see if he remem bered correctly. “We were in troduced by a mutual friend and I asked her if I could sit with her during the commencement exer cises. She said, ‘I reckon so,’ and that’s how we got started.” The couple are the parents of three children: Harold of Clayton, Anne (Mrs. Leavie B. Smith) of Raleigh, and Jerry of the home. There are also three adorable grandchildren. “My hobby used to be fishing,” Boyette said. “Now I like to just tinker on mechanical things.” Mrs. Boyette’s hobby is working in the couple’s new home which they recently moved into. They formerly lived in a house provided them by the county. They are members of Corinth Baptist Church. Scraps of paper will continue to be strewn on the floors and cam pus, desks will become unscrew ed, blackboards marred, children will become sick and upchuck, and many other things will hap pen. But Repsie and Walter Boyette will be there to take care of them. They take pride in their work. They like it. They had seen many, many youngsters come and go during their many years with the school. They love them all. “We are proud of our school,” the two said, and the sincerity of the statement was pronounced in every syllable.
