After a quarter of a century of service to East Carolina Teachers college. Dean of Women Annie L. Morton, now living in Beaufort, gave an official farewell last month to her ' girls" and to the campus which has been her home for many years. In 1925 Miss Morton came to Greenville as East Carolina's sec ond dean of women. She replaced Mrs. Kate W. Beck with, who had held the position for sixteen years. "When 1 talked to President Wright about the work," said Miss Morton a few days ago, "I told him I was a teacher whose experience j had been largely with children. I didn't know whether 1 could be a dean." she commented. "That's all right," replied the East Carolina president. "You'll just be dealing with children slight ly grown up." So Miss Morton left her position as principal of an I elementary school and became the friend and advisor of women stu dents at the college. Her devotion | to her work, her ability to handle difficult situations with tact and I efficiency, her interest in the wel , fare of students indicate that Dr. Wright's confidence in her was : justified. 700 Mudents When Miss Morton became dean of women at East Carolina, the i college was a different place from j what it has become in tin* last twenty five years, she savs. The student body was composed of wo men 700 in number, many of them i enrolled in the "normal" courses | now discontinued at the college. ' Now. with an enrollment o! more i than 1,600 each quarter of the J 941) 1950 term, the college has had 1 ! this year a slightly larger number j of men than of women. j As Miss Morton looks back over ' her years at the college, one of the things which impress her is j the rapid growth of East Carolina. 1 I The campus has changed remark ably, she says. East Carolina was in 1925 not nearly so beautiful as ; ; it is today There was little grass, and a good deal of mud in wet i weather and dust on dry days ; Ifardlv a sprout of green showed ; itself from Jarvis Hill on the west I I campus eastward to the limits of | the college property. Vast Improvement vVlie improvement," Miss Mor I ton said recently, "is wonderful Spacious lawns, a growing grove j of holly and other trees on the cam pus lacing Fifth street, shrubbery including more than 300 handsome camellias, paved roads and walks all these, she commented, have made the campus one of which the | state may be proud. Miss Morton has seen a lot of . building being done in the past. | and as she leaves much is still in ! ( progress. The Administration build- ' i See MISS ANNIE, Pago 7 Miss Annie I..

Motorists May Exchange Tags KAl Motorist: having on their vehicles two 1950 license plates on which flic paint is peel in;' today wore asked bv the North Carolina Department of Motor Ve hicles to exchange the tags for new one.v The exchange will be made with out cost to the motorist either by mail from the Raleigh office or upon application to any branch of fire in the State. Where paint is peeling on the front plate only, the department did not request motorists to make an exchange. However if the motorist wishes new plates m such cases, the exchange will br made free of charge Where the back plate remains legible, mo tonsts may use the plates through out the remainder of the >i:ar. Only one plate was Used during the war it was pointed out The plates which arc peeling all have an aluminum base. Since oth er states have used aluminum sue cessfully. department officials stat ed that the manufacturing process was believed to be responsible for the defective plates. A shortage of steel brought about by the steel strike of several months ago made it necessary for the department to use aluminum for 100,000 sets ol lOijO plates. The department was hopeful that all 100,000 sets would not have to be replaced smce steel allocated to manufacture of 1951 plates would 'ha\e to be u^ed, delaying production off next year's plates. Ne*pmt "Man Sworn In \ H. James, clerk of superior court, appointed Moses C. Howard. Newport, to fill the vacancy on the county board left by the death of Commissioner Wallace Styron, Sea Level. Mr. Howard look office Fri day morning. A 10-cent recreation levy for each $100 valuation xvas carried by three votes in Sat urday's referendum in More head City. One hundred for ty five person:; voted, 71 fur and 71 against I lie levy. Three hundred forty -five person* had registered for t h .? special election. I* ('. Salisbury, registrar, com mented that persons who register ed hut did not vote probably be lieved that an old law. h pealed in 1947, was still hi cffcet. This law stipulated that a person registered i *o vote, who did not east a ballot, automatically registered an "a gainst" or ? no" opinion. THE NKWSTIMKS pointed out editor ially .several weeks ago that this law was no longer in effect. Approval of the 10 cent levy means that Morchead City's tax iate will remain at $2.00 per bun ? died. Mad the recreation proposi tion been voted down, the rate would have cone down to $1.00 A former port levy of 10 cents will be dropped June M) The 10 cent tax now will go into a recreation fund rather than the port fund. Mow the town board proposes to set up the recreation program re mams to be seen. There is a large building on Shepard street, the Car teret Wecreation center, which coii Id be used as headquarters for the program Persons m favor of the tax supported recreation sys tem generally Itelicved that voting foi the Ml cent levy Was a vote for retention ol the recreation center. Tin . is not necessarily so The ballot reads as follows: "FOB an annual levy of I0c on each $100.00 of asscsse 1 valuation ot the taxable property within the corporate lun its of the Town of Morchead City fi r providm conducting and main taming .i supervised recreational system for the Town ol Morchead City " The seeond proposition read "ACS A INST . etc." It remains entirely within the 1 jurisdiction of the town board ah to the manner of netting up More 1 head < itys first tax-supported rec reation program on au income of 1 approximately $4,300 annually wlii' li the levy will provide.

Mr Davis said that the road at Otway never was brought up before the county com missioners. and that several other s were handled in a "high handed'* manner He further stated that the Cedar Island road is not on the county system any farther than about 100 feet beyond the last house toward Pamlico sound, yet paving is going all the way to the sound .1 L.
