"1 have received word," said Mr. Avera, "that the checks arc now all ready to go into the post offices in the last mail on Oct. 2, at the Treas ury Disbursing offices. This should mean that most beneficiaries will receive their new larger payments on Tuesday, Oct. 3, or a day or two later. They have nomally been getting their checks on the 4th 5th or 6th."

Mrs. Cherry snatched her rings and wat :h from an adjoining table and the} rushed | outside. Mr. Cherry ran back ir side to | get a wrap for his wife anci recei ed burns on the hand and ear be- 1 fore he could get outside igain. Firemen Arrive Firemen arrived shortly to find the interior of the building a blaz ing inferno with black smoke pour ing from under the eaves and flames leaping from the windows. Firemen hooked up their hose and began fighting the blaze. With in 15 minutes it appeared that flames had been brought under control, when a hose connection broke. Leaky Hydrant By the time the connection I could be repaired the fire had | gained headway again and was rag ing hotter than before. A leaky I hydrant also hampered attempts to | subdue the blaze, firemen reported. After combatting flames and smoke for over an hour the fire crew successfully quelled the fire and returned to their station at 8:35 a.m. At 9 o'clock the trucks were call ed back when flames rose again from a section of ridgepole. This fire was quickly extinguished and the all clear signal sounded. Roof Caves In The entire interior of the large expensively - furnished apartment was gutted.

The building was owned by | Cecil Cherry, Mr. Cherry's father. Most of the personal losses were not replaceable. Sunday marked the ninth month that the Cherrys had been married. Almost all of their wedding presents were in the apartment, Mr. Cherry reported. Coach Speaks ToRotary "My aim is not so mucti win ning games as instilling character and sportsmanship in the payers I coach," Coach Charles Hestr of the Morehead City football learn told Morehead Rotarians at Iheir Thursday night meeting. Coach Hester gave Rotariaas a review of the football program that began at the school this year. Nine teen players turned out for the first practice, he explained, and after adding and dropping several he now has 22 regulars. Not more than five of those who play on the team had ever seen a football game until this year, the coach commented. Despite this handicap, he said the boys had shown an aptitude for the sport that was evidenced by their action on the gridiron thus far. One demand the tledgling mentor said he makes is that all members of his team maintain a high schol astic average. He stated his be lief t(>at football might serve to induce some boys to remain in school until graduation in order that they might play. Following the coach's speech, the Rotary club gave htm a rousing vote of applause. He was intro duced by Gannon Talbert, basket ball coach of the high school who is also chairman of the Rotary youth committee. Rotarian W. C. Carlton led the group in singing.

Proceeds from the stock sale will be used for construction Superintendent Of Welfare Say] No Increase Dn Recipients of old age assistance in Carteret county received |his week a regretful shake of the hj?ad from county welfare superinten dent, Thomas C. McGinnis, as! he made it clear to them that tiieir benefits were not going to increase under the new social security law. "Many people now drawing old age assistance grants have the idea that their grants are going to be almost doubled from now on," Mr. McGinnis said, "but I am sorry to inform them that the increased benefits they've been rending a bout in the papers and hearing a bout over the radio are going to people who are recipients of old age and survivors' insurance pay ments. That is an entirely sepa rate program from our plan otp^d age assistance and only those dry ing benefits under that plan are due for increases. Our grants will in most cases remain the same for the time being." Congress Passed Law The welfare superintendent pointed out that under the new so cial security law recently passed by both houses of Congress and signed by the president, old age and survivors' insurance benefits would be increased, in many cases as much as 50 per cent or more. "But those increases have nothing to do with old age assistance," he emphasized. Old age assistance, according to the statement from the welfare of ficial, is a federal-state-county matching program of money pay ments made to needy persons who meet certain eligibility require ments. Among these requirements, it was pointed out, are that a per son must be 65 years of age or older, must be in need because he lacks such essentials as food, shel ter, clothing, and other necessary items, has been a resident of North Carolina for the past year, and is not living in a public institution. "The county puts up about one dollar out of every eight expended in this program," Mr. McGinnis continued, "the state matches that with another dollar, and the federal government contributes the other six. But the program is adminis tered at the county level, with county departments of public wel fare determining who shall receive grants, under such state wide reg ulations as those mentioned, and al so determining how much each grant shall be, also under state wide regulations. The state board of public welfare in Raleigh has general supervision over the entire state program."
