For information Call 2-5012 I Southern Pines Eye of the Law Is On Truck Spee4ers Col. W. B. Lentz, comitiaftder of the State Highway Patrol, said this week his men are eyeing' trucks with renewed vigilance to prevent speeding and tailgating. Colonel Lentz’s statement, which he said Wasn’t necessarily a “crack down,” coincided with a report from! Motor Vehicle Commission- ler L. R. Fisher’s office of numer ous complaints of trucks speed ing and following too closely. Colonel Lentz also revealed the contents of a letter from Torn Outlaw, executive secretary of the North Carolina Motor Carriers as sociation, in which the writer pledged his association’s help in ridding the highways of danger ously driven trucks. He wrote: ‘We realize that all of our driv ers are not perfect and we are determined to weed out all driv ers who might not drive their ve hicles in a safe and courteous manner.” Colonel Lentz said that each cf the state’s 30 patrol districts had been officially notified to investi gate closely all cases of flagrant speeding and tailgating involving transport trucks. The big vehicles' have been the target of recurring complaints, ac cording to Department of Motor Vehicle records. The commander said he was especially apprecia tive of the cooperation offered by the Motor Carriers association, which has its own corps of check ers on the highways. The closing paragraph of Mr. Outlaw’s letter will probably ap peal to a great many Tar Heel motorists. It said: “We earnestly solicit constructive'criticism from the general public in the event that they observe flagrant viola tions of safety and courtesy.” At the high point of the Mexi can foot-and-mouth disease out break, 640 inspectors patrolled 1,900 miles of border to keep ani mals from entering this country.

ABERDEEN "HAPPY ACCIDENTS “The town . of ’i Southern Pines is a kind of happy acci- dent here,” wrote Phil Stong in his “First Road Qf the ' Land” articl* in October Hol iday, “the place belongs in Litchfield county, Connecti cut. It is a pleasant New Eng land town stuck down here in the sand and pines. A few Yankee families settled here sixty years or so ago to escape the ruthless New England winters, and pretty soon they had built up a pleasant Con necticut or Massachusetts town, with four golf courses. It is not a • ‘resort’ town, though it is within a few miles of the famous golf courses of Pinehiirst; our dou ble room, air conditioned, at the Belvedere cost us eight dollars.” Edwin McKeithen Gives Travel Talk At Rotary Meeting Edwin T. McKeithen of Aber deen was Rotary Club speaker at last Friday’s luncheon meeting, held at the Village Inn.
