the role of H. X Peoples, stsnuing next 10 mm; csroine wuiiams, next,

Editor Bob Grady, while sojourning in Halifax County for four years
in the newspaper business, became a close friend of Capt. Peoples who
was in business in Weldon at that
years and moved to Bat Cave where
going to Weldon ne was warden at caieaonia rason larm in miuu
County where the story of Carbine Williams came alive. Peoples has
a brother who has been with the News and Observer for many years,
in the mechanical department. . . v t
probably under different condi
tions, Sam played Jeter's son.
Dude, for years and years, throw
ing a ball against that snack thou
sands and thousands of times. He
ought to be natural at hand ball.
Sam is one of the nicest people I
ever knew in show business, or out
of it either. He has been a close
and dear friend of mine all these
years between. Sam used to have
a glorious singing voice, and a bet
ter dancer I have never seen. He
is fun to be with anywhere and his
bubbling humor is always a bright
addition to any gathering. When
I went through several dark and
difficult years, Sam came to see
me in Maine to cheer me up. Many
a good lunch. Sam has staked me
to, with fun and foolishness thrown
in. Sam is back on Broadway again,
playing in The Chase."

Hunter's new outdoor drama 'Horn

new development in the outdoor
drama form, according to Samuel
Selden, director of the play and
head of the Department of Dram

Carolina. ...-.- .-,,-;,
Instead of a dozen scenes tied to

script follows the movie technique
In weaving some 40 separate scenes
together in a play which moves
without pause from stage to stage
of the outdoor Daniel Boone Thea
tre. The narrator'a voice is used
only at the beginning and end of
the drama.' . -
This will mark the first time in
the history of the American theatre
that this type of writing has been
used for an outdoor drama, Mr.
Selden says.

of protection against hospital, sur
gical and medical diiis, waa an
nounced today by Dr. Frederick C.
Hubbard of North WUkesboro. pre
sident of the Medical Society of the
State of North Carolina. -
Designed by the doctors them
selves, the Doctors Program is the
culmination of years of study to
set un arrangements whereby the
person of low income may receive
adequate coverage for major med
ical expenses. For persons whose
incomes exceed certain limits the
Doctors Program provides benefits
as deductions from their hospital,
surgical and medical bills.
Hospital Saving Association, of
Chaoel Hill, the state's non-profit
Blue Cross-Blue Shield health ser
vice plan, has been asked to handle
the new program as part of its reg
ular membership service. To date,
over eleven hundred North Caro
lina physicians have signed agree
ments with Hospital Saving to ac
cept the Association's fee schedule
ss full payment for services to pa
tients within the designated in
come limits, v
Members of our Medical Society,
said Dr. Hubbard, have watched
with interest the experiments car
ried on in a few other states to
provide comprehensive, prepaid
protection for the average work
ing man and woman of moderate
income, in which Blue Cross-Blue
Shield membership fees purchased
coverage of big medical bills' in
fulL With these observations ad
ded to experience in our own state
in working with Hospital Saving
Association under its Blue Shield
con tracts, our Committee on Pre
paid Medical Service was able to
proceed with the unique protec
tion we now offer the public.
The fourteen-man committee was
set up under the chairmanship of
Dr. V. K. Hart of Charlotte, with
Dr. O. Norrls Smith of Greens
boro as vice chairman. The ser
vice income limits have been set
by this committee as 12400 a year
for. an individual, $3000 a year for,
two persons (husband and wife or
parent and child enrolled before
the age of 18) and 13600 a year for
a family. Income is defined as a
person's adjusted gross income.
plus non-taxable income. The so
ciety states that the matter of
