WEDNESDAY, APRIL 29, 1953 FOUR PAGES TODAY 'God Bless America' Gives awe utoivs uys, uous od To All PB n A m G DTH F Have Fun t Butner By Joyce Adams Specialty dances, novelty songs group singing and a hillbilly band make for a lively afternoon. And that's how it was Sunday when a group of Carolina students visited the boys of the Youth Rehabilita tion Center at Camp Butner. The 100 boys welcomed the stu dents with a rousing version of "Hark The Sound." Then followed a round of informal but vigorous fun in which the boys and their visitors alike let down their hair to entertain each other. During group singing and instru mental numbers, some of the more light-hearted individuals put on spontaneous acts in the, form of specialty dances and vocal solos and duets. Music for the occasion was provided by the band consist ing of washtub viol, sax, guitar and piano which played mighty presentable hillbilly music. The assembly broke up after singing "God Bless America," and everybody mingled informally, get ting to know one another. The visitors were escorted through the new Center, a modern white colonial community on the crest of a hill. The inmates of the Rehabilita tion Center are boys ranging in age from 16 to 26 who have crim inal records. They are selected for , the Youth Center because of sa-1 perior qualities of intellect and character which could be put io good use in society if given the proper guidance. The state, believ ing in its youth, has set up this center to help boys, who, because of circumstances, never had a chance to adjust to society. There they learn a trade, learn how to get along with others and accept responsibility, so they may become useful citizens in their community. The atmosphere is one of a boys' rather than that of a penal institution. However, their life being neces sarily limited, the boys welcome the opportunity to visit with young people from the outside. The Car olina students were impressed with (See BUTNER, Page 3) Group Elects Dean Weaver Dean of Students Fred Weaver was recently chosen vice-president of the National Association of Stu dent Personnel Administrators.
