All Pitched In It was almost a school district project in behalf of the seniors’ trip to Washington last Wednes day through Sunday. The fine group of young people wish to express their deepest apprecia tion to all who helpe^ make this trip “a dream come true,” par ticularly to the Rev. George Houck, who accompanied them and whose fun and enthusiasm was a wonderful addition to the trip; to Mrs. G. A. Munn, who gave her time to teach for Miss Bert McCrummen who, also, ac companied the class. Then there was the Rev. H. A. McBath, who most graciously conducted the worship service at the Presbyte rian Church so that .he, too, could have a part in the project. Funds made at the Harvest Festival sponsored by the PTA went to defray the expenses of the trip, of which Mrs. Bob Von- Canon served as chairman with the able assistance of Mrs. Bob Youngblood and Principal John son. Everyone who gave time and money was well repaid for his efforts when the Rev. Mr. Houck and “Miss Bert” reported that the conduct of the class was be yond reproach. The kind of young people who have fun and in a clean, wholesome way. And what a trip! They stopped at th e elite South Gate Motor Hotel in Arlington, Va., complete with heated swimming pool, TV, helicopter service, and recreation hall. Their Congressman Paul Kitchin received them in the Nation’s Capitol and made it possible for them to visit the Hall of Congress at which they wit nessed a roll call vote and saw Speaker Sam Rayburn. Joining the class Friday for sightseeing was W. E. Jackson, Jr., who was stopping in Wash ington en route to Columbia Uni versity in New York where he is making possible plans for study on his Ph. D. At the Cinerama (broad screen) show they saw a complete stoiy of South Sea Is land. And in the theater whom should they meet but Mrs. R. R. Ramsey of Charlotte Court House, Va., who was also with a group touring Washington. The class was particularly interested that Nancy Ramsey, a former member of this school, was on a tour in New York City and that she was one of the National Merit Scholarship winners, mak ing a grade of 98! The driver with the chartered bus was with them to provide transportation at all times. En route to Glenn Echo recre ation area in Maryland they drove down Embassy Drive, home of Foreign Ministers to this country. The Rev. Mr. Houck took a ride on a roller coaster at the recreation area and Miss Bert says she rode on the hobby horses but sat in the seats! While the Bourbon years old class was seeing the sights they ran into the senior delegations from Aberdeen, Candor, and Cameron. Such a .small world! Among the sights of particular interest were Mt. Vernon, the Change of the Guards at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington, visit to the National Airport, and td the Lincoln, Jef ferson, and Washington Memori als. At the Washington Monu ment most of the class walked up the 898 steps with Sherrie Upole and Hanford Thomas even walk ing back down. In the Archives of History, they saw our Consti tution, Declaration of Indepen dence, and the Bill of Rights sealed in glass with helium to prevent deterioration. Impressed, as true young Americans, by the fact that these articles could be lowered, in a matter of seconds, to a bomb proof shelter A vesper service was conduct ed by Mr. Houck on Friday eve ning after which Miss Bert en tertained the group with a party. Following a tour of the Wash ington Cathedral Sunday morn ing they worshipped there and participated in the impressive Communion Service, after which they left for home more proud than ever to be American citi zens. “A poor beginning makes a good ending.” Prior to the trip Wednesday morning, there was a mix-up at the bus bend quar ters and the class who assembled at the school to leave by 8 o’clock (before the other students arriv ed for the day to save confusion) really got off only a little before noon. Again, we are proud of our young people who will soon grad uate from our High Sch6oL For the 8th grade, their trip to Raleigh by chartered bus Fri day, accompanied by Coach Vance Wilson, was almost equal tb the Washington trip for the seniors. They enjoyed a picnic lunch at Pullen Park, and made a tour of the State Capitol, the Governor’s Mansion, Museum, Education building. School for the Blind, the Penitentiary, and State College. Attend Camporee Twenty West End Boy Scouts attended a tri-county camporee from Friday to Sunday at a camp near Siler City. Z. B. Conrad, chairman of the Scout Commit tee, was with the troop during the entire period with able as sistance from Floyd Cole, Moore County camping chairman; Scout CommissioiKr Bob Youngblood, and George Robbins. There were two adult advisors with the troop at all times. The Camp included Scouts of Moore, Chatham, and Lee with the local boys ranking second in camping efficiency, winning the red ribbon.
