With representatives of the State Board of Education includ ing Dr. Dallas Herring, chairman; Dr. Ready and Dr. Raymond Stone, we plan to attend the pub lic meeting to be held in the courthouse at Carthage Tuesday night, March 26, at 7:30 at which time questions will be answered and the possibilities of a commu nity college for Moore County discussed. We hope that people interested in a community college for Moore County will come out and hear the discussion. (See front page story for more details.—^Ed.) HIGHER EDUCATION. Thus far this week the hottest issue in the General Assembly has been over the- proposed name-change for State College. We do not feel there is as much difference over the suggested names as some might think. The old saying is, that a “rose by any other name would smell just as sweet.” BIG ISSUES—The General As sembly is now getting ready to face up to some of the big issues of the session. But, you do not introduce a major bill, hold a meeting and act on it the next week. On major legislation you must give the public time to study and 1st their sentiments be known. This is the democratic way. Legislation passed in haste too often results in bad legisla tion. Before acting on proposals, you must give a bill long enough to “soak,” to use a common ex pression, and this is as it should he in a republic, s i k CARTHAGE NEWS Mr. and Mrs. Colin G.

Protests On Plan For Gaddy’s Goose Pond Entered By Sandhills Residents Miss Mary Wintyen of South ern Pines and Miss Dorothy Browne who is spending the win ter in the Sandhills, associated with Midland Crafters on Mid land Road, have sent protests to the National Audubon Society and other agencies and indivi duals, on a plan to establish a National Waterfowl Refuge in Richmond and Anson Counties, to include the Gaddy Goose Refuge near Ansonville. A copy of Miss Wintyen’s let ter to the National Audubon So ciety follows: “Are you aware that if some thing in the way of pressure is not put on the Federal Wildlife Service and the local factions al lied with therp, The Gaddy Goose Refuge at Ansonville, N. C. will cease to exdst? “The proposal to establish the Pee Dee National Waterfowl Ref uge in Richmond and Anson counties will take 400 acres of Mrs. Gaddy’s' land bordering al most at lakeside.. These 400 ocres are not only a partial feeding ground, but where Mrs. Gaddy raises the com for her winter feeding of the many thousands of Canada Geese. “For 29 years, Mrs. Gaddy and her late husband, Lockhart Gad dy, have spent a lifetime of labor and patience to bring each year, these 14,000 or more Canada Geese, some Blue Geese, a Snow Goose or so, along with hundreds of Ring-necked and Mallard ducks, to be seen and enjoyed by young and old, of not only this State but other states as well. To go there is an education in itself and deemed a great privilege by many bird folks. ■“Where can you go, where wild gcose feed (from your hands; while hundreds mill around your feet; where Ring-necked and Mallards wait at water’s edge or mingle with the milling geese for a hand-out? “Ask yourself this question, WILL the WildUfe Service, should they get control of this land' decide to allow shooting during the hunting season? If so, then never again will the Canada Geese at Gaddy’s walk with trust and freedom around your feet. “Immediate action is needed, if we are to stop these ‘political opportunists’ and save the geese at the Gaddy Goose Refuge for Mrs. Gaddy, their only protector now, as in years past. “Please write to anyone you know, who might have any in fluence regarding this situation. Write your United States Sena tors (in N. C., Everett B. Jordan and Sam J. Ervin), also write the Migratory Bird Conservation Commission, Dept, of Interior, Washington 21, D. C. A letter to Mrs. Lockhart Gaddy, Ansonville, N. C., might bring you more de tailed information and keep you posted as to Just what is taking place. BUT PROTEST, in one way or another and do it NOW.” Scouts To Rally On Ticket Sales Boy Scouts and their leaders in District 8 (Southern Moore) will rally at Aberdeen High School at 7 p. m.

Superior Court Hears Accident, Divorce Gases Among the cases disposed of in Moore County Superior Court last week, during a civil term with Judge Walter E. Brock of Wadesboro presiding, were the following: Six uncontested divorces were granted Monday on grounds of two years’ separation. They were: Janice P. Hemmens Meeks vs. Kenneth Alton Meeks; Charles Elliott Brown vs. Alice Carolyn Edmonds Brown; William Core vs. Vanrow White Core; John Mills Marcum vs. Margaret Ann Walter Marcum; Alberta Smith Johnson vs. Hillman Johnson; Dwight Nichols vs. Josie Shef field Nichols. , Settlements were approved by the court in two cases. In one. Seaboard Air Line Railroad Co. vs. Anchor Motor Freight, Inc., of Delaware and William Paul Hamm, the amount of settlement was not disclosed and defendants paid costs. Because plaintiffs had asked that the defendants pay their attorneys’ fees, a separate judgment was signed noting that, by consent of the attorneys for both sides, no additional sum was to be recovered by the plaintiff. Accident Settlement In another case, settlement of $800 and costs was approved for the plaintiff, Georgiana Smith, infant, by next friend Gladys Smith, from the defendant Willie Alton McLaughlin. This was an accident case and $423 of the settlement was earmarked for hospital and medical bills, the balance going to the plaintiff. In three suits against D. G. Mc Kenzie trading as MacKenzie Recapping Shop and Curtis E. Luther, plaintiffs all took ■volun tary non-suit as to defendant Luther, agreeing also that no costs be taxed against him. Outcome of a few of last week’s cases remains ■unreported, but will be published next week. Last week, 'The Pilot carried a re port of the $15,000 breach of con tract suit brought by Col. H. E.
