By NANCY LELAND Plans for 'Lance' Tuesday brought the almost unexpected arrival of the layout artist for this year’s “Lance.” There was a slight mix-up which led the artist to think that he was needed in Southern Pines as early as possible. Thus the edi tors had a time deciding upon an original theme, style and ar rangement on such short notice, but the foundations upon which the annual will be built are well under way. Elections Delayed The class officers of the high school were to have been elected last Wednesday, but due to lack of tim-.e, the elections in all but the sophomore class were incom plete. I hope to have this infor mation by next week, so have pa tience with the rest of us. Debating Team The Debating Team, under the direction of Miss Gail Miller, has formed again this year, and meets every Tuesday night, con sisting of students who are ask ed to become members. Here they can argue as much as they will, and have a legitimate excuse. Actually, a debate is much more than an argument, and these students use much of their time doing research for their topics, because their argument for or against a topic must be based upon proven facts. The officers of this group are: president, David Jones; vice president, Janet Phillips; secre tary, Molly McConnell; and treasurer, Ian Gouldsbrough. On October 25-26 a conference will be held at Chapel Hill, to which two delegates from South ern Pines will be sent. The two delegates will be Charles Mc Laughlin and Bobby Hiatt, and their topic is, “What Should Be The Policy of the Federal Gov ernment in Giving Medical Care to the Citizens of the United States?” The other members participa ting on the team are: Jeanne All- red, Janice Campbell, Gerry Gil more, Steve Grant, Maureen Has- senfelt, Barbara and Marie Hurst, Steve Kelly and Janet McPher son. More power to them. FHA Supper The FHA will hold a pot-luck supper tonight at 5:30 in the Home Ec Department. The pur pose of the event is to welcome all newcomers to the club. A good attendance is' expected. Pep Rally There will be a pep rally to night at the football field, pre ceding tomorrow’s game against St. Pauls. The boys played a great gam.3 last week, and in spite of a number of injuries sus tained in that game and else where, the Knights have kept their promise to make us proud of them. I know they will tomor row, too.

Youths Fined For Violating Town’s Home Selling Law Two 18-year-old youths who gave their home address as An niston, Ala., were fined $50 each in Southern Pines Recorder’s Court yesterday for violation of the town’s ordinance prohibiting door-to-door selling. Gerald William Waldrop and William Wayne Moon were ar rested Monday afternoon in the Knollwood area, on complaints to police from several persons who reported that the yoimg men had been attempting to sell magazine subscriptions, using a variety of “pitches” that aroused suspicions. Police Chief Earl S. Seawell said the stories reportedly told by the salesmen to gain entrance to homes or to try to sell sub scriptions did not agree. Also, he said, the 1963 Chevrolet they were driving was registered as a Ford. Yesterday, the fines and court costs, amounting to about $70 for each of the youths, were paid by a representative of the Union Circulation Co. of Atlanta, Ga., the firm they said they were sell ing for. The ordinance they violated prohibits salesmen or solicitors from going on private premises, uninvited, any where, in town. There is no question of getting permit^. Phiqf ^awell said. None are given for such selling'exC^t in certain special cases. Any per sons going uninvited to any dwell ing to sell anything should be reported to the police depart ment, he said. SUBSCRIBE TO THE PILOT. MOORE COUNTY'S LEADING NEWS AND ADVERTISING WEEKLY. PRACTICAL NURSE (Continued from page 1) miliar with the wide variety of skilled procedures practical nurses are now called upon to perform. The students have been working three days per week in the hospital, while continuing with two days also in the class room. Goal of the students is gradua tion in April of next year and State Board examinations that will qualify them as licensed practical nurses. 'The examination program has been set up by both the State Board of Education and the State Board of Nursing. Once certified as licensed prac tical nurses, the graduates will be qualified to work in the hospital or on private duty, anywhere they choose to go, but all are likely to continue to work in this area where they have homes and fam ilies. The course they are taking rec ognizes a revolution in nursing which has seen registered nurses confined more and more to ad ministrative and supervisory duties and bedside care taken over by trained practical nurses —what Mrs. Mock calls the “up grading of the practical nurse’s role.” In this new role, licensed prac tical nurses are qualified to give medication, under supervision, and perform many other func tions formerly done exclusively by the registered nurse. To broaden their training, the students in the Lee Center-Moore Memorial course are rotated in various departments of the hos pital—medical, surgical and pedi atric, becoming familiar with all phases of patient care. While the students pay a fee for their training, it is relatively small, in line with policy for all State-regulated technical train ing and vocational courses. One of the students, Mrs. Mary Small of West Southern Pines, who had served as a nurse’s aide at Moore Memorial with exceptional ability before entering the course, was provided a full scholarship for the training by the hospital’s Woman’s Auxiliary. Both patients and hospital per sonnel are reported pleased with the performance of the 20 trainees. Based on the success of the current course, others are plan ned by the Lee Center for the fu ture, in cooperation with other hospitals in the area or with Moore Memorial again, if the in terest warrants. BENEFITS FOR WIDOWS Since July 1, 1960, widows of World War II or of the Korean Conflict veterans have been .eligibte^.to, receive pensions oh the saM'd basis as World War 1 widows. In brief, the deceased husband had to have at least 90 days of service of which part was during wartime. He must have been discharged under conditions other than dishonorable and the widow’s annual income must be within statutory limits. Individu al details may be received at any VA office. MOORE LEADERS (Continued from Page 1) Dock Smith, Robbins. Some of these people have been working regularly with the blood program. Others are new to it. —There must be more emphasis on the program as a county-wide project, less emphasis on what each community gives. This means that people must be en couraged to give in another town, if they can’t give in their own. To this end, the county-wide schedule of bloodmobile visits, for as much as a year in advance, should be published and posted and brought to people’s attention in all possible ways. —To tie in with the county wide emphasis, there should be a county committee, with repre sentatives from all local town committees, to gauge and en courage progress on the program for the county as a whole. —Groups who give cmparative- ly little blood now should be reached in all possible ways and encouraged to give. These include rural residents emd the Negro population of the county. —Methods to assure that “re placement donors” meet their pledges—as many of them are not now doing—should be devised. (See another item on this page, “Why Is The Blood Program Failing?”) Suggestions to accom plish this aim ranged from having them arrested for false pretense to having the person who received the blood see that the “replace ment donor” gave blood, as pledged. Some replacement donors, it was noted, have signed several pledges to give blood in a short time—more than they could possibly fulfill. —Both physicians and hospital personnel testified at the meeting that the loss of the blood program would be a catastrophe from a medical standpoint. Hospitals would have to attempt to main tain their own blood banks, facing many difficulties in equipment, handling of donors that would re quire presence of physicians and nurses, and in getting rare types of blood which are now obtain able on short notice from the Charlotte center. Loss of the Red Cross blood program would en danger lives in the county’s hos pitals, it was agreed and would jeopardize the county’s status as a growing medical center. —While the suggestion was made that the program might benefit from centralizing collec tion points for blood, combining collections from several towns at one central point, it was stated by Red Ctoss officials that a steady flow of blood throughout the year is needed by the Char lotte center and that is why the collections are made more often, at various points. Determination There was an obvious deter mination among the group at the Carthage meeting to try to save the program, but many of them, long experienced as workers in connection with bloodmobile visits, held no illusions about the difficulties involved. Overcoming public apathy and unwillingness to give, even when people are informed about bloodmobile visits, is no esisy task, they point ed out. There was a suggestion also that the Red Cross office could be more diligent in its paper work. Though Chairman Hauser said that every person who has given blood is notified by mail when and where he is due to give again, to renew his six-months credit card, one man who said he was a regular donor asserted that he had never, in several years, received such a notice. Among the persons contributing to the discussion were: Dr. J. C. Grier, Jr., of Pinehurst, Dr. R. J. Dougherty and Dr. P. P. Green, of Southern Pines, and Dr. R. L. Felton of Carthage, physicians; Duncan McGoogan, administrator of Moore Memorial Hospital; Timothy Cleary, member of the Pinebluff board of commissioners; Luke Marion, Carthage business man; T. Clyde Auman of West End, chairman of the blood pro gram in that area; Don Walter of Southern Pines; Sonny Guion of Aberdeen, representing the Jay- cees who sponsor the bloodmobile visits there; Mrs. I. T. Wyche of Pinehurst, of the Auxiliary of Moore Memorial Hospital; A. B. official; William Caton of South ern Pines and others. 6TH GRADERS (Continued from Page 1) in the county whose schools are not sending vehicles can obtain transportation if they will come to the East Southern Pines school at 9 a. m., it was stated.
