Children Flock
To Youth Center
Since the formal opening of the
Youth Recreation Center on Oc
tober 11, the average week-end
attendance has been over 200
teen-agers according to a report
issued by the director, Mrs.
George Corey.
During October a special Hal
lowe'en Costume ball was given
at which time the girl with the
prettiest costume received a prize
donated by Belk-Tyler's.
The attendance hit an all time
high on November 11, Sadie Haw
kins day. A Sadie Hawkins’ race
was held on Watts street after
which a mock wedding of Lena
the Hyena, and the winner- (los
er) was held.
Following the Williamston-Ply
mouth football game, “Welcome j
Plymouth’’ night was observed at
the center with over 50 visitors
present.
On Thanksgiving night a group
of teen-agers sang Thanksgiving
hymns to several persons in town
who had given financially to the j
center and to those who helped in i
other ways.
An organization of the teen-ag- \
ers has been perfected. Officers j
i l >
cil has been formed and a consti
tution has been drawn up. This
youth council will serve as a gov
erning body for the center and
will work with the adult plan
ning committee in mapping out
the future programs.
For special parties refresh
ments have been furnished by the
adult refreshment committee. On
■regular nights, usually there have
been cold drinks and nabs for
sale.
The teen-agers have decorated
the center on the special occas
i ions, Hallowe’en, Thanksgiving
and Christmas.

Sunday Slated To Be
Shortest Day In Year
At exactly 10:41 a. m. on Sun
day, December 22, winter arrives
officially in Martin County, and,
incidentally, in all the rest of the
northern hemisphere. According
to the almanac, Sunday is also the
shortest day of the year, with the
sun rising at 7:25 a. m. and set
ting at 4 31 p. m., ma'. ng the to
tal amount of daylight nine hours
and six minutes.
Although the day ushers in the
coldest season of the year, oddly
enough, the earth is actually
nearer the sun than at any other
time, so astronomers say.
