I Veteran Solves School Housing Problem With Own House On Water When the Morehead City Technical Institute, a branch of N. C. State College, began its second year on September 23, there was one . student who brought his home with him. Robert Crowell, for the past three years a midshipman at the U. S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, and his wife are liv ing aboard a sailboat now docked in Bogue Sound a few yards from the grounds of the Technical Institue he is at tending. " . By coming to the North Caro lina coast, the Crowells have only changed a Maryland deck for a North Carolina one, a change necessitated by Bob's change in schools, and as he said, "A chance to learn to use my hands." While Bob is studying in frnal combustion engines or engineering drawing or machine shop practices in the school laboratories, Mary will be cook ing in the blue painted cabin or hanging out the laundry oil the deck of the "Black Crow." Whatever she is doing, she knows that it will not be too hard, for unlike most house wives she can finish her house work in an hour. Living aboard the 32-foot boat, a gaff ketch drawing b/i feet of water, is not a new experi ence for the Crowells. Since their marriage last November, they have lived in the "Black Crow," which they bought at that time for $300. Although they were advised by ship yards as worthless. The Crow worthless and could not be re fresh and frozen fish, the agent said. CHILDREN'S COATS Size* 3 to 12 The Children's Shop paired, tney moved onto me boat immediately "after purchase and hopefully began repairs. On the 350-mile trip which they have just made down the In land Waterway on a leisurely two-month cruise, they experi enced no trouble from Bob's repairs of the boat. In a thun der storm near Cambridge, Maryland, they saw a boy killed by lightning less than a hun dred yaTds away. The trim and freshly painted boat, as the "Black Crow" ap pears today, shows only a faint resemblance to the photographs of the "tub" discarded by ship wrights as worthless. The Crow ells have vivid memories of last winter.. While Bob was repairing the boat, even to fitting a new stem, the weather was often and the boat was covered with snow and ice. Both Mary and Bob maintain, however, j that the boat is more com fortable than a house. The twenty-one year old Bob says' that the chief advantage in living on a boat is in the reduction of living expenses, lr the summer kerosene is used for cooking and lighting. Ii the winter coal is used. Al though the boat sometimes tilts and causes a ene-sided cake, Mary is already well-known at the Commercial Fisheries' dock as a good cook. Sleeping ac commodations are for three. Their chief concern at the moment, besides Bob's new course at State College's Tech nical Institute, is in changing the bow of the boat into a nursery which they expect tc ? need in two months. Bob in tends to build a small bunk for a crib and lockers for the baby'i clothes. Maryland's important agricul tural products are tobacco, wheat, corn, hay and potatoes. in 30-Day Smoking Test! ?
