Chapel Hill. According to information from the Press the book offers for the first time, sufficient authentic ma terial for a just estimate of the man, David Crockett, who, since his death In 1836, has remained one of the most fascinating and legendary figures In American His tory, shrouded in fiction and myth and error. . . For almost ten years Dr. Shack ford pored over every primary and secondary source of authentic material and the result, says the Press, Is a new picture of David ' Crockett, a vastly more compli cated anil human figure than the stylized frontiersman, backwoods politician, and congressman of legendary fame. I "The truth, as recorded here through the medium of authentic biographical facts, accords Crockett the Justice he deserves. To follow I his career from North Carolina I across that great Appalachian barrier to East Tennessee, then to fttlfldle Tennessee, thence to the mighty Mississippi, and finally to Texas is to follow the last far fllnglng lines of the frontier In Its concluding marches 'to the Pillflc. It is a tragic and yet a grandly victorious story?the story of the destruction of our last frontiersman and of the birth of a new pioneer world citizen." The book, which wilPbe on sale at The Book Store here, will sell for about $5.00. Dr. Shackford, who spent his boyhood here, is the son of Dr. and Mrs. John Shackford of ; Churchville, Va. He was professor of English at North Carolina SUte College, Raleigh until his retire ment about a year ago on account of ill health. He spends his time now with his parents in Church ville or at their summer home here. He is a brother of Mrs Roger Walker of Hazelwood.

(International) Bethel High Blue Demon Tales The annual Spring Music Festi val was presented in the new i gymnasium at Bethel high school i on Thursday evening at 7:30 p.m. 1 The program was a variety of band < compositions, ensemble choruses, i faculty and senior quartettes and solos. Novelty audience particlpa- 1 tlon and an Interpretation of the French song "The Little Shoemak- 1 er" by the Majorettes were pleas- 1 ing innovations. The proceeds went ' to the support of the Bethel barld ' ? The Junior-Senior Banquet was , very successful, due to co-opera- t tlon of students and Teachers a- ] like. The prlparation which was s the most important step was begun , about a week before the banquet. , For months the juniors were in j great anticipation about the theme , and all had been thinking about it. j We chose the theme about two i months before the set date. This was done by the committees chos- 1 en by the students of each home i I room. j Then work began, the committee met and an establishment of the things we needed was made. The order got off to the various com panies. The committee of different arrangements met separate to de :ide what they were going to do. As their plans got under way things began to really take shape. The decorations were made in the upstairs of the old building. 1 don't know who enjoyed them lelves the most, the students with he preparations or the teachers vith the piece. As the time drew tear the girls whom we had chos en to serve began to get their res umes ready as well as the boys, i must say the whole group did a iwell job of serving and we should ill thank them, from the very lepths of our hearts. If it had not >een for the mothers and those vho served we would have never lad a banquet. The food was the rery best I have ever eaten. The night be so re was very much 'un even if we did have a lot of vork to do. When all was finish ed all Isokag swell. The night ?f the banquet was | very exciting and all were hungry. All looked very pretty, the food was delicious. The orchestra was out of this world. I think all went very well and every one went away happy. Wea^K lt all to the help of Miss Kitchen and Mr. James.
