750 Spectators Witness
Fire - Fighting Program
Dayton Rubber Company's fire I
drill team of 12 men and chief, put
on an interesting and educational 1
fire fighting show here Thursday
night at the WTHS parking lot for 1
some 750 spectators. 1
The show began with Ray Hart,
safety director of Dayton Rubber
Company's Dayton plant, explain
ing the different kinds of fires, and 1
the necessity of using different !
methods and chemicals to combat
these fires.
He also pointed to the need of
being constantly on the alert
against fires, and then gave home
owners some pointers of what to
do and what not to do to prevent
fires.
The demonstrations began with
the team carrying a 2V&-inch hose
over an obstacle course to the top
of a tower and there in short order
knocking, over the target with the
stream of"~wgter.~Tti*n the team
showed quick work of taking out a
section of hose, resuming fight
ing, and in a short time replacing
the section of hose and resuming
positions on the tower.
Fuel oil and gasoline in large
drums was set afire and the sec
ond demonstration was given by
use of chemicals. The point of em
phasis being that a special chemi
cal for each particular type of fire
was the only effective means of
successfully combatting the blaze.
The last demonstration was set
ting afire rubbish in a house built
of Dlvwood. about the size of an
ordinary garage. Inside to helD
make the rubbish burn faster was
15 gallons of gasoline and oil. The
nivwood sides had holes bored in
them to give ample cross venM'?
?ion for the blazing rubbish Inside.
The firemen using fog nozzles
on the 21,ts-inch hose, soon had the
burning inferno under control. A
quick shift of the wind sent the
dense black smoke over part of the
spectators, but they stayed until
the last spark was out. and then
gave the firemen a big hand for
?.nelr accomplishments.
The demonstrations were inter
esting from every angle, and
among the spectators were many
of the volunteer firemen of
Waynesville and Hazclwood, togeth-,
er with members of the WNC Safe
.y Council.
John Moore was master of cere- ,
monies, and Arnold Robinson, safe
ty director for the Dayton plant
here was in charge of the demons
trations and gave a running ac
count of each as the firemen went
about their part of the show.
The firemen in the demonstra
tions included Chief Noble Fergu
son, aptain Orville Cogdill, Jim
Phillips and Dean Reeves, nozzle .
men,' and James Fisher, Walter
Wyatt, A. J. Plemmons, Donald
Moody. Richard Muse. Wilburn j
i
Holland, Robert Dixon, Tom Sea
jraves and Ivan Byers.
The event was worthwhile, and
gave a lot of laymen a new view
point of fire fighting.

olina apple crop was reduced by
98 per cent by a late freeze.

Enka Is Donating
$20,000 To New
District School
American Enka Corporation to
day announced plans to contribute
$20,000 toward equipment needed
o put the new Enka High School
In first class operating condition
this fall. None of the equipment to
be provided by the company is
available through state funds.
In making the announcement,
plant manager E. M. Salley, Jr.
pointed out that the new school
consolidates facilities of both pub
lic high schools, Sand Hill and
Candler, previously located in the
immediate vicinity of the Enka
llant. He estimated that well over
fifty per cent of the students will
be children of Enka employees.
A major portion of the $20,000
is to be spent in equipping the
Enka High School gymnasium with
roll-away bleachers to seat more
than 1.500 persons, glass basket
ball backboards, and an electric
score clock. Plans also call for the
purchase of musical instruments
needed to form a school band.
The band instruments are ex
pected to arive in time for use
during the coming football season,
Mr. Salley said. Installation of the
gymnasium equipment will be
made before the basketball season
opens in November.
Construction of the Enka High
School, which contains 27 class
rooms, auditorium, cafeteria, li
brary, gymnasium, and admini
strative offices, was completed
during the summer.
The new school was named Enka
by the Buncombe County Board of
Education on the basis of an area
election in which 97 per cent of
the 1.234 persons voting favored
the name Enka.
Fifteen per cent of U. S. fami
lies with both parents working
have children under 6.

Strenuous Cowboys
TAMPA, Fla. CAP) ? Mrs. H. W.
Doyle complained that her four
horses, with nothing to do right
now except graze in a big pasture,
always looked wnfrn to a frazzle.
Investigation disclosed two boys,
one 13, the other 10, had been slip
ping into the pasture and showing
the gentle saddle horses how they
thought western cowpokes would
ride.
Juvenile Judge O. D. Howell is
sued an order tying the boys down
to their own corral. At last report
Mrs. Doyle's horses are looking
(and no doubt feeling) much bet

Bishop Tells Rofarians
Isolationism Is Dead
Haywood Man Slated
To Leave Germany Soon

Oops! Slow Down!
DETROIT (API ? Detroit has
cut the speed limit on trucks of
more than 5.000 pounds to 45 miles
an hour on its expressways. The
City Council overlooked a state
law limiting trucks to 45 when it
originally set an expressway limit
cf 55 for all vehicles.
"Isolationism is detd," Bishop
Gerald Ensley of Iowa, told Rotar
Lans here Friday as he discussed
tl.e transition period in which the
world is passing, after two world
wars, and political changes.
"The old system of nationalism
is smashed beyond repair," he said,
"and the day of ruthless capital
ism is gone forever.
"This is a bad half hour of con
fusion for the world. We are in
a transition period of schools, as
we discuss integration, and we
are in a transition period of re
ligion."
The mid-west bishop, said he
felt It was the task of every citi
zen to "Learn to Tell Time."
"We must learn the absolute a
gainst fixed dails of fact. The only
way we can tell time correctly is
by the movement of the hands of a
clock against a stationary dial.
"We can't go back unless we go
all the way back. We can be isola
tionists but not without sacfificing
scientific advances," the speaker
told the members and 33 members
fvom six states.
Bishop Ensley continued by ask
ing that "we hold on and work
s'eadily. There is no short cut to
a better world, and those who do
the job faithfuly will be justly re
warded."
