To Core Creek *
less of Season
>f the county to make a "pilgrim
age" to Core Creek to view the |
ife sized reconstruction of the
>irth of the Saviour in the stable
n Bethlehem.
The scene shows the babe in the
nanger in a stable made of rough
lewn logs. Kneeling by the manger
n an attitude of adoration is the
nother, Mary. Standing by the
nanger is Joseph and watching
iver the Holy family is an angel
;lad in white. Hovering in the air
>ver the stable are two angels and
i cherub while in stalls on each
>ide of the manger are live animals.
Coming toward the birthplace
rom the east are three wise men
vith their camels and approaching
'rom the other side are the won
lering shepards.
The nativity scene is most beau
iful at night. Lights play over the
ife-sized figures and recorded
Christmas carols add to the feel
ng that here, indeed, is a little
Portion of Bethlehem.
The members of the Core Creek
Methodist church have spent many
lours of painstaking labor on this
>eautiful scene and will spend
nany more each evening from Dec
17 on as they "watch by night"
vhile the devout come to pay their
espects.
For motorists, a startling view of

lighway 101 on an elevation and

Beaufort Joins
County-Wide 4
Radio System
Police Commissioner Glenn
Adair announced Friday that the
Beaufort police department has
joined the newly-formed county
wide police radio system. Adair
said that radio equipment has been
ordered and will be installed in the
patrol car within a few days.
The new radio network will al
low immediate contact between
Beaufort police. Morehead City po
lice. the state highway patrol, Car
teret, Craven and Onslow county
authorities and New Bern police.
The transmitter for the' radio net
work will be located in the More
head City police station. More
head City police will provide the
24-hour monitoring service re
quired by Federal law. Beaufort
residents wishing to contact police
will use the same procedure as be
fore.
A new 60-watt transmitter has
been ordered to replace the one
now in use by the Morehead City
police. The transmitter will also
include a low-frequency unit for
the use of the sheriff's department.
The low-frequency system will give
better car-to-car contact over the
large area covered by the county
officers.
Morehead City and Beaufort will I
be on a high-frequency system.
This will mean that there will be ]
no direct radio contact between the
town and county cars. Such con
tact will be made through the
central station which will relay
messages.
Commissioner Adair said that the
most immediate result of the new
radio system will be better traffic
safety in Beaufort. He said that
the police will be able to cover a
larger area of the town tn a shorter
time than is now possible.

Released when Friend Admits
Driving at Time of Accident
Hoy Clinton Raper of MoreheacM
City was freed yesterday in More
head City recorder's court when he
appeared for trial on charges grow
ing out of an accident which in
jured two Newport men.
Charges against Raper were nol
prossed when it was learned that
a companion. Howard Wesley Cain,
had confessed that he was driving
the truck at the time of the acci
dent. Raper had been charged |
with drunken driving and failing to |
yield" the right of way.
Cain's confession was obtained |
after Raper had sworn out a war- 1
rant for his arrest. Raper charged j
Cain with careless and reckless 1
driving and failing to yield the j
right of way.
When he was arrested Thursday ,
night, Cain told police that he
was not driving because his license i
had expired in November. Cain j
later changed his story and ad
mitted to Capt. Buck Newsome of
the Morehead City police that he
was driving the truck at the time
of the accident.
Cain said that they were leaving
his house when the accident oc
curred. He said that he stopped
before entering the highway and
did not see any approaching ve
hicles. After he pulled out on US
70. he felt the impact of the mo- ,
torcycle hitting the side of the ;
truck.
Cain said that he left the scene j
right after the accident because his
wife had fainted in the doorway
of his home. He told Newsome that
he denied driving because of his
family.
The two men on the motorcycle.
Douglas Henderson and Elwood
Jenkins of Newport, were taken io
the Morehead City hospital where
they were treated for fractured
legs and otfier injuries. The con
dition of both men is satisfactory,
according to the hospital.
The case against Cain has been
continued until the Jan. 12 session
of the Morehead City recorder's
court. He is free on $500 bond.
Negrp fined
Oh Two Counts
Horace Lee Johnson, colored, was
ordered to pay fines amounting to
$125 and costs yesterday in More
head City recorder's court after his
conviction on charges of driving
under the influence of alcohol and
transporting non-tax paid whiskey.
On the driving charge, Johnson
was fined $100 and costs, ordered
not to drive for 12 months and
told to turn his license over to the
highway patrol. He was fined $25
on the liquor charge. The whiskey
was confiscated.
Johnson was arrested on Aren
dell street Sunday morning by
Highway Patrolman J. W. Sykes.
Sykes said that he followed John
son when he saw him slumped over
the wheel of his car. Sykes said
that he arrested Johnson and took
him to the Morehead City police
station.
Sgt. Bruce Edwards of the More
head City police testified that he
found a half-pint of non-tax paid
whiskey on Johnson's person when
he searched him.
Johnson admitted transporting
the liquor but denied that he was
drunk. He did not testify in his
own behalf.
Union Ruling
Hurts Ports
North Carolina's ports don't
have enough trouble with happen
ings at home. They are also ad
versely affected by decisions made
in places as far away as Texas.
A Wilmington shipping agent has
said that the "mistaken opinion"
a Texas labor leader is causing the
Morch^d City and Wilmington
ports the loss of important .ship
ments of fertilizer.
W. S. R. Bcane, president of the
Heide company, said the labor
leader had ordered Wilmington
stevedores to charge double wages
for unloading calcium ammonium
nitrate and ammonium sulfate, both
vital ingredients for fertilizer.
Beane said the labor chief, Frank
Yeager, president of the south
eastern and Gulf divisions of
the International Longshoremen's
union (A.F.L.). considered the ma
terials explosive and dangerous to
handle. Yeager has his headquar
ters at Galveston, Texas.
As a matter of fact. Beane said,
government tests have shown ihat
these two materials are not ex
plosive. They are being handled in
other ports at regular wages.
Beane aided that Yeager appar
ently confused the nonexplosive
products with two similar products
which are explosive.
One of these is ammonium ni
trate, which requires Coast Guard
supervision while being unloaded.
This product caused the Texas City,
Texas, disaster several years ago.
Beane said local stevedores have
expressed a willingness to handle
calcium ammonium nitrate and tm
montam sulfate at regular wages,
but have been forbidden to do so
by their union. Longshoremen at
Charleston, S. C.. and Tampa. Fla.,
are under the same restrictions,
Beane said.
Th?-?ffie?a* sari a York im
porter recently offered the Heide
company a shipment of 11,500 tons
through the state owned Wilming
ton port, but that the shipment had
to be turned down because of Yea
ger's order. <
Two Streets -
Made One Way
Morehead City police have an
nounced that two streets in the
vicinity of the Morehead City
school have been made one way in
an effort to alleviate traffic con
ditions near the school.
The ruling affects 11th street
which is now one way from Bridges
to Bay and 12th which is one way
from Bay to Bridges. The change
was made because of the congestion
at the beginning and cftd of the
school day.
Teachers entering the school
driveway have been asked to enter
the drive from 11th street and to
leave it by way of 12th street. Par
ents bringing children to school
and picking them up in the after
noon are also asked to observe the
one way streets.
