One of America's favorite singers is the baritone Mac Morgan, who will appear at 8:30 tonight at More head City school. Texas-born, Florida-bred, edu cated at Rochester's Eastman School of Music, copper-haired Morgan made a national reputation for himself during two seasons as star of the weekly "Highways in Melody" program, broadcast from coast to coast over NBC. He has been soloist at New York's Stadium concerts with the Philharmonic Symphony; he has filled three en gagements in one year in Cleve land; in recitals he has thrilled audiences from coast to coast. The past two summers he has made opera appearances at the Berkshire Music center. Morgan grew up in Jacksonville, Fla., where he played trombone in the school band and sang in the church choir and glee club. When he was 15 he started to take les sons from a local voice teacher. One day the baritone, John Charles Thomas, came to town to give a concert and agreed to hear Morgan sing. Impressed, the famous singer advised the young man to go to the Eastman school. He attended Eastman from 1936 to 1940. graduating with the de gree of Bachelor of Music. There he not only began his career but met his future wife, Helen Neilly, a fellow-student majoring in piano. In 1942 the Morgans came to New York. Morgan entered the National Aria auditions for appearances with the Cincinnati Zoo opera. He was one of two winners that year. Early in 1943 baritone Morgan became Private Mac Morgan, U. S. Army. At the beginning of 1946, after three years of service, most of it spent in the Pacific, Morgan was honorably discharged. The baritone took his white-tie-and-tails out of mothballs and started his career again. Recital dates began to come in followed by a star radio engage ment, the "Highways in Melody" program. Two years on this pro gram built a devoted nation-wide following for the American singer. Only holders of Community Con cert membership tickets will be ad mitted to the concert. Persons wishing to attend wh? do not hold Community Concert membership may phone Mrs. George Dill, jr., Morehead City, 6-3507, who may have tickets turned in by members who cannot attend tonight's pro gram.

Royal, Morehead City. The hostesses will be Mrs. J. W. Jackson and Mrs. S. W. Thompson, members of the Car teret-Cherry Point Community Con certs association executive board.

Governor EndOises Campaign To Assist Crippled Children / Raleigh. ? "The right to aid the? crippled is a privilege that should be appreciated, guarded, and exer cised fully," Gov. W. Kerr Scott said today endorsing the annual Eastern Seal appeal which opens March 13 and continues through Easter Sunday. Heading the drive in Carteret county will be Mrs. Martha Loftin. Beaufort. The goal is $1,000. Boy Scouts in Beaufort and Morehcad City will place coin collectors in business places this \reek. The Governor urged generous support for this year's campaign so various chapters for Crippled Children and Adults, sponsoring or ganization, may meet the increased cost and provide the services need ed by crippled children of the state. "It is economically sound to make available such services as those financed through Easter Seal funds, since these services help de pendent crippled children become independent, productive adults," the Governor said. "The North Carolina Society for Crippled Children and Adults, with the co-operation of its chapter or ganizations and many volunteers, works closely with the many prob lems of the handicapped children through a broad program of edu cation, direct service, and re search," the Governor said. "Many of the handicapped children of our state would go neglected except for tbe services and aid made avail able through tbe Easter Seal so ciety." The society's headquarters in Chapel Hill announced that the 17th annual campaign is planned for aid to approximately 250,000 handicapped school children in North Carolina. The appeal will be made through 300,000 letters to be mailed throughout the state, Easter Lily parades, and through North Caro lina schools which will conduct the sale of school packets and tags.

Eight Couples Win Divorces j Dean Israel Noe Presents Signet j Ring to Rector Clergyman, Formerly of Beaufort, Makes Presen tation at Memphis, Tenn. Memphis, Tenn. ? (AP) ? The "Lost Signet Ring of King Solo mon" glitters today on the right index finger of the one mortal deemed worthy of wearing it. The strange and gaudy ring was given to the Rev. Cannon L. D. Gottschall, rector of St. Paul's Epis copal church in Oakland. Calif., at a banquet recently here at Mem phis. The crowd pf about 500 watched as Dean Israel H. Noe, formerly of Beaufort, made the presentation. He had high praise for Dr. Gotts chall. whom he called his "spirit ual kinsman." Dean Noe designed the ring after 12 years of digging into the "uni versal subconscious" for details. Several jewelers worked on the project, completed at a cost of about $5,000. According to the way you look at it, the ring is either a large, un usual piece of jewelry, about a year old by normal figuring ? or the modern manifestation of a legcn-' dary ring whofec "soul body" goes back 3.000 years. The ceremony also marked the 13th anniversary of St. James' Episcopal church here, founded by Dean Noe after his run-in with the bishop of Tennessee in 1938. The late Rt. Rev. James M. Max ton removed Noe from the post of Dean of St. Mary's Episcopal cathedral here five da^s before Noe was taken to a hospital because of a weakened condition brought on by a> 22-day fast, i ? ?

Scott, manager of the field and ware house department and J. W. Miller of the leaf department of the Flue Cured Cooperative Stabilization corp. Gillette said the port's storage warehouses would be completed in July .and part of the Georgia-Flori da and Border Belt crops will begin moving to the coastal facility. A total of 17,000 to 20,000 hogs heads of tobacco will be stored at Morehead City by the stabilization corp. NEWS-TINES Farm Issue Will Appear Friday " Appearing Friday will be THE NEWS-TIMES annual farm edi tion.

Articles will sum marize progress in agriculture in Carteret county during the past year and will also contain adver tisements on farm machinery and supplies carried by businessmen who cater to the needs of the rural resident. Veterans Who Sell Homes Remain Liable on Loan Veterans who sell their homes and let the purchasers assume the 4 per cent GI loans, remain per sonally responsible for the payment of the loan, says Paul W. Crayton, officer in charge of the VA office, New Bern. Crayton said world war II vet erans should not sell their proper ty without making certain that their interests are protected. The best way to do that, he says, is to have the purchaser pay cash or ar range a loan in his own name. He pointed out that property is more easily sold with the favorable 4 per cent GI mortgage remaining in effect ? a factor that should in fluence the selling price. How ever, a veteran selling his proper ty with the GI loan intact runs the risk of later having to pay all or part of the debt resulting from a default by the new owner. Should the new owner of the property fail to keep up the mort gage payments, the holder of the Onhottgigc can foreclose. When the proceeds of the sale resulting from the foreclosure do not cover the amount of the GI loan out standing, the difference may re main a debt against the veteran. The VA has to pay the holder of the mortgage for the guaranteed portion of the debt. The veteran will then owe the government the next amount of that payment, plus interest. In many areas throughout the country, foreclosure may take place without notice being given direct ly to the original veteran-borrower (for example, foreclosure by publi cation) even though the veteran remains liable for the debt. For this reason, the veteran is urged to keep the holder of the GI mort gage and the Veterans administra tion advised of any change of his address. He should also request the lender to* notify him if the new owner defaults. VA, when notified of property sales and of any change of address, will inform the veterans, when it learns that the loan is in serious default or in danger of foreclosure. Fisheries Officials to Conduct Hearing at Wilmington Raleigh? Problems facing com mercial fishermen of North Caro lina will be discussed at an open hearing to be held by the commer cial fisheries committee of the State Board of Conservation and Development at Wilmington March 28 at 1 p.m. in the Wilmington city council's meeting room, George R. Ross, department director, an nounced today. The hearing, which precedes the opening that night of the spring meeting of the board of the Depart ment of Conservation and Devel opment, will be presided over by Mrs. Roland McClamroch of Chapel Hill, chairman of the commercial fisheries committee. Other mem bers of the committee are Charles H. Jenkins. Ahoskie, Fred P. Lat ham, Belhaven, Charles S. Allen, Durham, and Dr. C. Sylvester Green, Chapel Hill. All commercial fishermen having matters they wish to place before the committee are urged to be pre sent at the hearing.

In view of the fact that the commercial fishing season will soon be in full swing in the state, the director anticipates the hearing will be well attended. In many respects, Ross said, the commercial fishing for the six months period that ended Jan. 1 was better than during preceding years despite weather conditions that at times made it most difficult to catch the fish. ? Thus far. he added, the shellfish season, based on reports made by C. D. Kirkpatrick of Morehead City, state fisheries commissioner, has been much better than usual. The harvest of oysters, shrimp, hard and soft crabs, clams, and scallops has been exceptionally good, Kirk patrick reported.
