VQlXXjMNO.tt KEWANSVILLE,NC 28349 JULY 14. 1977 / ' *'* ' '' wy^r- ^ - -to- y.' ffPf The Liberty Cart Review Poor Attendance For Pr?m?.^Bfv|^tv,|e.rt ; Ki By Tammy Howard The premier of the Liberty Cart Thursday night was not successful, according to the gudience attendance. It was a Success in respect to the per formance by the cast. Even .though the audience was small (ga estimated 50) the cast did an excellent job at entertaining those who were present. They gKmld be commended for their dedication and spirit. I chose two cast members whom I thought displayed an exceptional amount of talent, fbe first is a young woman who . portrays Abigail Love in the first set, and Annie 1011 in the ?' - -V second. Jane Barrett, a dark haired beanty from Chapel Hill, teaches ballet and is an aspiring acting-teacher. Jane's talent is best displayed in the first scene of the second act where she displays an afr of youth and romance in dealing with the frivolous James Kenan (Harry Isaacs). Jane takes everyone present through her grief and happiness. The Liberty Cart profits from having Jane in its cast. My other choice is a native at Kenansville. Don Williams, a 25-year-old professional tutor at James Sprunt, is playing a difficult part - that of the old man, Jonathan. One wonders ?V v*;~ 1 how a 25-year-old amateur can portray aa.80-year-old. Don claim* it simply requires going over and over the characteriza tion of Jonathan. He has definitely been successful. Don's performance will long be remembered. His dream - "To see the resurrection performed at Easter in the Amphitheater." With the determination of Don, it may well become a reality, because as Jonathan, Don says, "With God, all things are possible." Although Jane and Don are my favorites, Tom Hull rates the highest. As Phenius Pickett, Tom narrates the play through 100 years. Relying on humor, K* t realism and understanding, he touches the heart. The fireworks are exciting and the battles are made livelier by the flashes and the cannon. The smooth flow of die scenes and the perfection of the prop changes are indeed a relief and improvement from last year. To appreciate the hard work put forth by all those involved with the Liberty Cart, one must see the play. The play will be open until July 31st, every Thursday through Sunday at 8:30. Tickets are sold at the Amphitheater Box Office during the day and the night of the show. Please attend the nest performance of the Liberty Cart and retrace the history of our County. I promise you an enjoyable, entertaining evening. Please support the Liberty Cart. If we do not, who will?

SHOWER TO HELP COUPLE The home of Mr. and Mrs. Rmyburn Hall of Magnolia was completely destroyed by fire on July 1, 1977. This young couple and their two little girls lost everything that they had as a result. Family and friends of the couple are giving a floating shower an their behalf on Saturday, July 16th, from 4 to 6 p.m. at West Duplin Free Will Baptist Church between Kenansville and Warsaw, on Highway 24.

How about these new tele phone books? . . .It even has a name this year - "The Phone Book". . .An unusual name. . .Wonder why they called it that. . .To me it is quite a confusing book. . .For the time being, anyway. . .1 will probably be accustomed to it bv the early 1980s... I personally liked it the way it was...It was easier for me to find a number the old way. . .But then the old way had several letters of the alphabet on one page, and alphabetic order is not one of my best abilities. . .When it gets past A,B.C. I get lost. , In the old directory, one simply looked under the proper town and found the name of the person one wanted to call. In the new one you find the name. . But surprise. . .There may be several names the same.. .Then you check the towns, remem bering to check the town 'Jim goby James, or dqps.Bill go by William. . .So now you need their middle name... There we even two Joe Laniers. . .Myself in Warsaw. a 293 number, and another in Rose Hill, a 289 number. . . 1 hope he doesn't get my news and sign painting calls and 1 don't get his washing machine repair calls... The phone company has in stalled a new computer type relay system in Kenansville at a cost of almost $700,000 to simplify the dialing. . .And if you are on a party line it is simple????? To quote the "Phone Book", if you live in Warsaw and want to call someone on your party line, you dial 5 plus the seven digit number you wish to call. . .You will hear a busy signal. . .Hang up the phone and give the person whom you are calling time to answer. . .Then pick up your phone and begin talking... .Now if the person you are calling picks up his phone before you return to the line, he will hear a "tick tone" and wait for you to speak. . .But if you pick up your phone to see if he is there before he gets there, you've got to do it all over again. .Or if you fail to pick up your phone again and he doesn't pick up his, that phone is going to "tick tone" all . day, more or less... Now, the Kenansville sub scribers who dial a person on their party line are going to hear a recording. I guess the phone company figures they don't know what they have done when they dial a number on their party line? So a recording will come on and advise the caller he has dialed a number on his party hne.. .and to hang up the phone to wait for the party on the other end to pick up. . .Now the eUNng pho^fc ffit} M- may aft ring. . .If it does, or does not, that's all right. . .Don't worry about it. Jhfow. when the ended' party picks up his phone he will hear a "distinctive tone" and Jie should remain on the line ufttil you pick up to see if he ? there. . .If,he is not there when you pick up, you will hear a "dis tinctive tone". , .Which is only fair.. .If he can hear a "distinc tive tone", you should lie able to hear it, too. . .However, when you pick up, his phdne stops ringing,. .So now does he think you have hung up and there is no need for him to answer?????. .. Ot does he have ESP and go ahead and answer a phone that is no longer ringing because he knows you are there waiting for him????. . .Son of a gun. . .These modern conveniences.. . But what about those in Faison who wish to call a person on their party line... .Here it is a lot of fun. . .First you dial S. . .Then dial the last figure in your phone number. . .Nest you dial the last figure in the phone number you wish to call.. .Then hang up.. .And your phone will begin ringing.. .When it stops, the other party has answered the phone. . .Son-of-a-gun, sounds like someone is trying to guess how old you are or now many pennies you have in your pocket. . .All this mumbo-' jumbo sounds as up-to-date as the carrier pigeon to me. I gueks Spivey's Corner knew about all this mess beforehand, and that , is why they are trying to bring back communication by holler ing. . Whoooooo Whoooooo Whoooooo... Whoeeeeceg.... 1 overheard Mary Stevens telling someone that she and Dr. Stevens have put out several bags of lime and about twkeai hoping for some rain. .-n Someone popped in and said, "Yeamnd when it does.>11, you will need then is d hero of goats.".... A tale from yesterday. . .In years past, there was a school and a corn mill near Dob son's Chapel. . .The school was located (if facing the church) to the right aways, and the mill was to the left back behind the church on Persimmon Creek. . .On hot summer days, the boys. . .a rowdy bunch. . .would take off running to the mill pond to go swimming after school let out.. .Most of them only wore a pair of overalls. . .No shirt or shoes. . .under-drawers were questionable. . .And it was a simple matter of sliding the galluses off the shoulders and one was ready for skinny dipping. . .And the boys had it down pat. . .They would un dress while stilt running, and sail into the cool waters of the mill pond.... As a rule, no females would come by the pond, but on occasion it did happen, and in this story they did.. .A group of girls and a couple of boys came wandering by the pond. . .And this skinny-dipping bunch of boys were caught in the nude. . .Seeing one another at about the ?i m ?>? m f?mn fkn kmra laintl fn swiiv uiiiv, uiv wvja u ivu iw hide.. .One of the boy* decided he would stick his head under the pilings, but the position was awkward, and unknowingly, his bottom end was sticking out of the water in dear sight. . .Well, the boys, with the girls trying to think fast and keep the girls from being embarassed (times Ave changed). . .told the girls that what they were seeing was a hog rooting. . .But one of the girls popped up and said, "Ain't no such thing.. .That IS lam " ..
