emergency provision, a member
of the patient’s family must pre
sent a signed pledge card to the
laboratory before the patient is
discharged from the hospital.
Members of the Medical Staff
have agreed to review all emer
gency requests for blood at Staff
meetings each month to be cer
tain the privilege of ordering
blood for emergency cases is not
abused, Mr. Howerton said.
A card explaining this new
procedure, which has been pre
pared by the local chapter of the
Red Cross, will be presented each
patient upon admission. The pro
cedure will also be thoroughly
explained by attending physi
cians and office personnel of staff
physicians.
If Moore County continues to
drop behind in raising its quota
of blood, the eventual cancella
tion of the blood program for
Moore County may follow. Red
Cross officials said.
The new policy is designed to
prevent such canceEation.

Frances Bullet's
CoimtrY Kitchen
How long has it been since you
treated your family to Apple
Turnovers and Chess Tarts? Last
week I spent considerable time_ in
the kitchen, and made a batch of
each. They are both such old-
fashioned sweets — but my, how
good they taste! My apple turn
overs were almost gone before
they made the dinner table, but
that happened to be the day my
teen-age son was home. He made
away with three as soon as they
came out the oven!
' Turnovers are often caEed
“fried pies,” but baking them
helps a little on the calorie count.
They are so easy to do — just
pick up a package of dried apples
next time you are marketing, and
follow directions for pie or apple
sauce. I use a little grated nut
meg along with the cinnamon.
RoE out the pastry fairly thin and
cut in rounds about 4 or 5 inches
in diameter (one of your cannis-
ters is fine for this job). Put a
good tablespoon of the apple mix
ture on pastry, fold over and
press edges together with floured
fork. Bake in hot oven (450) about
15 minutes or until nicely brown
ed. As soon as mine come out the
oven, I glaze them with a thin
confectioner’s sugar icing — with
a bit of/lemon juice for flavoring.
Cool on rack or serve warm.
The little chess tarts are quite
a favorite in our famEy. We al
ways have them at famEy picnics
— and wouldn’t think of going
to a Bethesda Homecoming with
out a big supply of them! They
are so easy to make — wonderful
for so many occasions when
you want something really yum
my! They are best made in very
small muffin pans, but if ygu do
not have the smaller size pans,
the regular size will do — but cut
the pastry with your 3” cookie
cutter and fit the rounds into the
pans. It will take only a table
spoon of the filling for each tart.
Lemon Chess Tarts
Put in bowl: 2 cups sugar (half
light brown and haE white), pinch
salt, 1 tablespoon flour, 1 table
spoon cornmeal. Toss lightly with
fork. Then add: 4 eggs, unbeaten,
1/4 cup butter, melted, 1/4 cup
cream (or eV|aporated milk), 1/4
cup lemon juice, grated rind of
lemon.
Beat until smooth and thorough
ly blended. Then add about Vz cup
ground or finely chopped pecana
Pour into tiny tart shells and bake
at 350 degrees for about 20 min
utes, or until browned. Makes 36
smaE tarts.

a feature of which was the pres
entation to Mr. and Mrs. H. A.
Bor^t of a plaqile in memory of
their Son who passed away last

1914-1959, Advisor Explorer Post
810, Vass, N. .C.” The presentation

STORM
(Continued from page 1)
A few trees fell over on houses,
causing damage. Others—tall,
thin ones—snapped off part way
up the trunk and crashed down
on ornamental trees and shrubs
and, in a few cases, on houses or
outbuildings. Dogwoods and oth
er hardwoods held up well under
the ice, but many were broken
when pine liiribs fell on them.
Damage was heavy around
town haE. Large cedar trees there
lost big branches and branches
were broken 'off a hardwood tree
by the front entrance.
Police and town street crews
were out Saturday and again on
Sunday clearing streets that were
blocked by faEen trees or
branches. The crews, directed by
Roland Norton, street superinten
dent,' were out again on Sunday
for overtime work.
It took the crews about three
days to pick up everything in the
streets. Then they began the mon
umental task of hauling away the
limbs and rakings that house
holders began piling on parkways.
In Southern Pines, the area east
of May St., through "Weymouth
Heights to Bethesda Road was
hardest hit. Ice seemed to be
heavier and the thick concentra
tions of pines on Weymouth
Heights combined to make the
damage greater.
South of Southern Pines, the
Ice concentrations stopped
abruptly between Southern Pines
and Aberdeen. Aberdeen and
Pinebluff hardly felt any effects
of the storm. '
Damage to utilities and to trees
was heavy in the Carthage and
Robbins areas and was felt con
siderably to the north through
Vass and Cameron. West End and
on to Candor was hit hard. Out
side' the county, Montgomery
county’s damage probably ex
ceeded anything in this area.
Joe R. Kimball, district mana
ger for United 'Telephone Co.,
said that the Pinehurst-Carthage-
Robbins area was hardest hit in
terms of damage to telephone
wires. Ward Hill, CP&L Southern
Pines manager, called the Wey
mouth Heights area the section
with most damage to electric fa
cilities, but said that damage was
heavy in Carthage and spotty in
the Vass-C£lmeron area.
Service was restored to every
Cp&L customer by 8:45 p. m.
Monday, Mr. Hill said.
' Mr. Kimball said this morning
it was expected that all local tele
phones should be back in opera
tion by the end of today.
Both the utility companies caU-
ed in crews from their South
Carolina territoiies, and CP&L
from elsewhere, to help in the
repair work.
Mr. Hill said that nine tree-
trimming crews were called in,
to work in cooperation with 14
electrical repair crews from
Dunn, Rockingham and South
Carolina and, of course, the com
pany’s own crew here.
The tree men did the branch
removal and cutting, speeding the
work of the electrical crews on
the wires.
Crews worked throqgh Satur
day night, as did Mr. Hill and
other executives and employees
of the local and Division offices
of the power company. A similar
report was made by the tele
phone company.
Some of the crews, employees
and executives rested briefly
Sunday and then worked on late
into Sunday night and early Mon
day morning.
The telephone company report
ed about 60 men, local and from
out of town, doing repair work in
this area all this week. They will
remain until all work is cleared
up, Mr. Kimball said today.
Telephone workers gave pri
ority to restoring toll lines. Serv
ice to Pinehiu^t and "Carthage
was back in <iperation within five
hours.
United Telephone Company re
ported a few poles down, but no
such mass damage in fallen poles
as was reported in the West End
and Candor area which is served
by the Central Telephonev, Com
pany.
CP&L men on repair work
numbered 114 at the peak of
operations, Mr. Hill said.
During the storm there were
only two general power failures
in Southern Pines—one of them
also affecting Lakeview, Niagara,
Vass and Cameron. Other failures
were local in origin, on smaller
lines with fuses or oil switches,'
W|hich were usually knocked out
by fallen limbs causing wires to
touch and short-circuit, Mr. Hill
said.
One general failure in Southern
Pines was 40 minutes Saturday
afternoon when trees fell on lines
on N. Bennett St.
The other was for 22 minutes
Sunday afternoon, when a tree
fell on a line on Pee Dee Road, at
the David Drexel property. Both
were main feeder lines from the
Aberdeen sub-station. The Sun
day break was the one that af
fected communities north of
Southern Pines.
Perkinson’s talk. They were
George Griffin and Karl Schwein-
furth, Jr.
The opening ceremony included
an invocation by the Rev. T. Fant
Steele, Jr., pastor of the Methodist
Church, the Pledge of Allegiance
to the Flag, and a candlelighting
ceremony led by David Crockett
with 12 other Scouts giving the 12
points of the Scout Law.
The introduction of Scouting in
America was given by the Flying
Eagle patrol under the title,
“Scouting Passes in Review.”
Johnny Smith served as reader.
Eddie Smith inpersonated W. D.
Boyce, Chicago publisher who in
troduce^ Scouting in this coun
try. Others in the pantomime were
Franklin Baker, Philip Keith and
Wayne CaddeE.
Recognition of former Scouts
and Scouters was by David Crock
ett. The list of Scoutmasters is as
follows: P. A. Wilson, W. E. Glad
stone, A. G. Edwards, Jr., J. A.
Hudson, Wilford Lassiter, Ray
Griffin and, the present leader,
Karl Schweinfurth. Around 100
Scouts have been enrolled since
the first troop was formed in Vass,
it was stated.
“Scouting Keeps Growing” was
presented by Danny Williams as
narrator and Wally Hutchinson
and Danny McGill, of the Rebel
patrol, who displayed cards show
ing the number of Scouts in var
ious years throughout America.
A surprise element was the
presentation to Scoutmaster
Schweinfurth of a gift in apprecia
tion of his splendid work with the
boys. This was made by D. H.
Williams of the Scout Committee.
The meeting closed with the
singing of a verse of “God Bless
America” folowed by a benedic
tion by Scout Danny McGiE.

Members of the Sandhills Ten
nis association reelected Mrs.
Robert M. McMillan president at
their first meeting of the year
held Monday night. Also reelect
ed were Mrs. Charles Phillips,
secretary, and Walter F. Harper,
treasurer.
New officers elected were David
Drexel and George H. Leonard,
Jr., vice-presidents. ,
Mrs. McMillan appointed Nor
ris Hodgkins, Jr., as tournament
chairman, to head plans and op
eration of the ‘two major tourna
ments sponsored by the S'TA dur-,
ing the summer, the Junior Sand
hill Invitational and the Sandhill
Invitational.
At the meeting, held at Mrs..
McMillan’s home, the members
decided to hold the junior event
in July and the senior in August,
rather than combine them in one
week in August as was done last
year. While there are advantages
for both sponsors and players in
having them both the same week,
unfavorable weather could throw
off the timing, badly affecting the
senior tournament, it was pointed
out.
Ways and means of promoting
an all-year program, with the
possibility of having one court
topped for all-weather play, were
discussed, .also the best ways of
getting the clay courts into shape
for spring and summer use.
ON HONOR ROLL
Bobby Watkins, son of Mrs.
John "Watkins, 295 W. Wisconsin '
Ave., recently was listed on the'
honor roll at Frederick College,
Portsmouth, Va., where he is a
Student. An average of 90 or high
er is required for the listing. He
