Opposite Holly Inn lu Weekeud Wreck Two one-car accidents occur red in the county last weekend, resulting in injuries to two per sons one of thenj serious, and bad damage to two cars, accord ing to a report by the State High way patrol. Winfred Brown, 43, of Ram seur, lost control of his car Sun day afternoon, on the Hemp Street extension about a mile northeast of Robbins. His 1955 Dodge coupe hit a tree, damaging the car and causing Brown to suffer a serious head injury. He was taken to Moore Memorial hospital. Brown was alone in the car. Willie Lee Shamburger, Negro, 22, suffered head lacerations when his 1954 Ford two-door skidded, ran into a ditch and overturned, on a rural paved road about six miles from Rob bins Saturday evening. Sham- burger received first aid treat ment at a physician’s office in Robbins. His car was rated “de molished.” No arrest had been made either case as the investigation continped early this, week.' Meat-type hogs can he develop ed by selection and breeding. If you live in one of the state’s 32 commercial corn growing counties, vote in the November 25 com referendum. Exhibiting the work of profes sionals and amateurs in the con fines of a single room generally isn’t a good idea (the pros almost always win hands down), but the Library Art Gallery’s selection committee defied the unwritten rule over the weekend and tack ed up an extremely pleasing show of some 30 photographs, a mixture of about half and half. Those who have commented on' the pictures to date are unani mous on one point; the exhibit is a good one, probably made so because the amateurs’ pictures bring a freshness to the exhibit that professionals all too often miss in their desire for technical perfection. The pictures vary all the way from John Hemmer’s famous “Shrimp Boats,” made on the Carolina coast several years ago, to a Kodakcolor of an old lady sitting in a cabin holding enough material to fashion one of those old quilts that used to be in every household. It was made by Mrs. Gertrude Page. There are five other photogra phers represented, though at least two of them would not want to be classified as such; Harvey Horne, Emerson Humphrey, Hen ry Turner, Daniel Boyd, Vance Derby and Valerie Nicholson. Mr. Hemmer’s “Shrimp Boats” dominates the exhibit and well it should. It represents what can be done with a camera if the pho tographer is truly a good one. Mr. Hemmer, whose reputation as a New York newspaper photogra pher preceded him to the Sand hills many years ago (he’s now official photographer for Pine hurst, Inc., and has worked with the State Advertising Bureau several years), did well to select the coastal scene for the exhibit. In a brown tint, the picture shows the boats going out in the early morning and it’s doubtful if the viewer will fail to get a feeling that he’s riding in a boat just behind. Other of Mr. Hemmer’s pic tures in the exhibit are aerial views of two Sandhills show- places, an action shot of the two lead dogs on a hunt—ears and feet flying—and one of his famous trotting pictures that clearly shows a trademark; all four of the trotter’s feet ai:e off the ground, a difficult time to catch them. Emerson Humphrey, whose reputation as a f»hotographer of horse and hunting scenes has been established, has four photo graphs: one of a horse jumping, another of the Moore County Hounds gathered just before a hunt, a golf scene taken at Pine Needles, and one of the lake at Clarendon Gardens. The golf scene has been widely reproduc ed, as has the one of the horse going over the hurdle. Harvey Horne, an employee of Carolina Power & Light, has memorable picture of four gen tlemen in a bull session. Eacn of^ the men would make a fine por trait singly, but taking the fdur together is something an amateur seldom does. He also has one of a scene in Germany or Switz'erland show ing a street iii a small town with huge mountains in the back ground (probably the Alps), and a snow scene showing some boys getty ready to throw snowballs. Henry Timer’s three portraits are all good but the middle one, a Southern Pines man, is prob ably the best. It shows a happy man who has just finished a day Of hard work and seemingly standing back saying: “Hey, mis ter, take my picture!” The other portraits are of a young girl and one of Clifton Blue, this county’s representa tive in the General Assembly. Mrs. Page’s color photography is extremely good. She has one picture, in a small frame and sitting by itself, of a woman picking up shells from the beach. Look hard and you’ll see a man in the water behind her, an excellent gimmick to in dicate depth. Another of the pic tures is of a woman walking along the beach, and three are mountain scenes. In her picture of the old woman in the cabin the view er should take a closer look and he’ll find a touch of modem in it: sitting on a table behind the old woman is a radio, just the right touch to make it a good photograph. Daniel Boyd’s picture • is of ■Wendy, his daughter, clutch- ling a toy while looking at soipe geraniums, tiie colors, are ve^ good, particularly of the flowqrs, and the gray background . the house offers seems to touch the picture off just right. Mrs. Valerie Nicholson, a cor respondent here for a number of daily newspapers, has six photo graphs in the exhibit, three of them illustrating the technique of spot news coverage, two of the feature type, and one of the House in the Horseshoe after the restoration was complete. News photos are, as is almost always the case, taken under great handicap. News pictures do not often allow the photographer to pose the subjects and tech nique is limited to showing the action, whether it be spectacular, as in the case of the Highland Pines Inn fire (which occurred in the very early morning hours), or the flood near Robbins \last year which claimed several lives, or, as in the picture of the famous Jack Key trial of almost two years ago, a photograph dramati cally illustrating the faces that appear in a courtroom drama. Her picture of Harry Golden, the editor of the Carolina Isra elite, and a Catholic sister, is par ticular ly> good and it enjoyed wide publication. Also widely published was the informal shot of her husband reading- to thejr grandchildren, who were overtaken in mid-shot by a sleepy time yawn. Vance Derby’s pictures are two taken in the mountains just as the trout fishing season was opening, and two- of his children. The fishing scenes show a group gathered around a camp fire late at night, waiting for the time to arrive when the season officially opens (and telling tall tales about the big ones that were caught last year) and the other shows the fishermen as the sun comes over the hills. All told, the exhibit is a good one and should serve to encour age the exhibit committee to do more of the same in the future. Certainly there are many people in the area who have made good pictures and many others would love to see them. As another suggestion, how about an exhibit of architectural v,rorks, buildings, industrial ex hibits, plants, etc.? And then one of aerial views of the area, and maybe one of nothing but pic tures of children taken by ama teurs? Photography, it seems, offers an unlimited future for exhibits, providing the pictures aren’t too many and are well selected. CAROLINA, a regular alley cat who belongs to Mr. and Mrs. George K. Foster, sometime residents of Pinehurst, watches his master on the putting green just before taking off for a trip to Arizona and California for the Thanksgiving holidays. CaroUna has travelled thousands of miles with the Fosters in the four years he’s lived with them, the longest trip, just completed, to Africa and back.

Pinehurst Cat Logs 40,000 Miles This Year; Visits Europe, Africa Civics Club At St. Anthony’s Visits Campuses Members of the Saint An thony’s Civic Club visited the Morehead Planetarium in Chapel Hill Friday, where they were in troduced to the wonders of the planetary system. “The Mysteries of Mars” was an excellent pro gram giving the boys and girls a new interest in the world of astronomy. After several hours at the Planetarium the Duke University Chapel and the new Immaculate Conception Church in Durham were visited. These chapels en abled them to appreciate the dif ference in English Gothic and modern architecture. Most of the winter people in Pinehurst could qualify as “cos mopolitan” because they’re wide ly travelled, have friends in many corners of the globe, and live in what has come to be known as the “high levels of society.” Now comes word that there’s a winter resident who has an dditional qualification: she’s a at. “Carolina” is her name and she’s the property of Mr. and Mrs. George K. Foster, mostly of Mon treal, but also of California, New York and Tanganyika, Africa. “Carolina” came to the Fosters about four years ago when they were visiting in Pinehurst and has travelled thousands of miles since, 40,000 this year alone! Of the alley variety, “Carolina” travels with Mr. and Mrs. Foster (he’s a consulting mining engin eer), wherever they go. They’ve been back and forth to Pinehurst from Montreal, to California, and recently returned from Tangany ika where Mr. Foster was on a job. The cat, with Fosters in tow, sailed for Europe in late May aboard the Independence with such fellow passengers as Miss Bette Davis and Tomas Gomez from the world of the theatre, and, from the world of politics, the former President and Mrs. Harry S. Truman. Cat-fancier Truman’s suite ad joined “Carolina’s” and there Was daily visit between the two. Mfl 'Truman, it is reliably report ed, even declared the cat, after proper questioning of crew mem bers and passengers, the qnly Southerner on board and conse quently the only true Democrat. Requiring both ticket and pass port for her travels, the cat flew from Rome to Nairobi, Kenya, in British East Africa via Air Prance and photographers made much of this first American c'at passenger. From tliere she flew to Mwasue, Tanganyika, on a 'Williamson Diamond Mines plane and settled down for a two-month stay while papa-Foster was doing his con sulting job. Leaving at August’s end, Caro lina sailed from' Dar es Salaam, Tanganyika’s capitol and seaport, for Trieste, Italy, a 16-day sea voyage aboard an Italian liner. Arriving there, they drove 2,100 European miles in the Fosters’ car while touring the Riviera—j Italian, French and Spanish- and embarked at Barcelona New York City.
