School Superintendent
Comments on Bond Fund
H. L. Joslyn, county superintend-*
ent of schools, said this week that
no announcement has come from
the state education office regard
ing distribution of funds due 4rom
the recently-approved $95 pillion
bon<J issue. ' #"*.L
Mr. Joslyn expressed the opin
ion that the state may he deferring
the matter until the Supreme Court
issues a decision on segregation.
Carteret is assured, however, of
$100,000 from the first $25 million.
Money from the next $25 million
will be distributed to counties on
the basis of enrollment, he added,
and then the last $5 million will
be appropriated according to
"need."
Mr. Joslyn said that Carteret
now has an application in Wash
ington for more federal funds.
The county superintendent has
been highly commended by Con
gressman Graham A. Barden for
the manner in which he has hand
led applications for federal money.
Mr. Barden said most school super
ntendents in this district expected
him (the congressman) to do all
Jie work for them, but Mr. Jos
iyn got results by wading through
the federal red tape himself.
The new Newport School is one
result of federal appropriations
and other schools in the county
lave directly benefited by funds
supplied by the federal govern
nent.

Police Ask Businessmen
To Move Displays
Beaufort businessmen were re
quested by the police department
yesterday morning to remove their
merchandise from the sidewalks.
A town ordinance prohibits dis
play of merchandise in front of
stores but it has never been en
forced. The town board at a re
cent meeting said the display of
merchandise on the sidewalks is
not only unsightly but it creates
obstacles to pedestrians and could
hamper movements in case of fire
in the business section.
Farmers Advised, However/
Not to Rush Sale of Hogs
Dr. C. E. Paden, veterinarian, said today that hogs in a J
pen near Newport are infected with VE, vesicular exan
thema. The disease, dreaded by all hog owners, can he
curbed only if the infected animals are slaughtered, said
Dr. Paden.
He declared, hojvever, that there is no need for the
a here in the county to become
alarmed. "It would be foolish to
rush halt grown hogs to market."
he added, "because the hog lot has
been put under strict quarantine
and it is in a section isolated by
about five miles from any other
hogs."
The infected hogs number about
150 in a herd of 770. These have
been separated from the others
and it is hoped. Dr. Paden added,
that the others in pens removed
from them will not get the disease.
That cannot be determ'.nfd, he
said, until after observation of six
months. VE. shows itself in the
form of blisters on the hogs'
mouths and feet. They can't eat
and they can't walk. In about two
months the hogs infected now
might recover but their young will
die, explained Dr. Paden.
'Not Apt to Spread'
lie emphasized that the situation
is under control and not apt to
spread. It cannot be spread by
water or through the air. It can
be spread only by contact. Human
beings going among the hogs can
carry it to other swine.
The hog lot is located on the
Roberts Road about two miles from
highway 70. Owners of the lot are
said to be three Elizabeth City
men, Foust, Aydelette and Ro
chelie. Efforts to contact these
owners had not been successful by
yesterday, according to Dr. Paden.
The men have a contract with
Cherry Point Marine Air Base to
feed the hogs garbage from the
base. The garbage was cooked as
required by law and all state law
pertaining to feeding garbage to
the hogs was complied with, but
Dr. Paden said infected hogs have
I been shipped to the Newport lot
another state ?
Federal Nu lomN
Dr. Johnaon of the virus control
division, Washington, D. C , visited
the lot with Dr. Paden Wednesday.
The disease was first suspected
last week when Dr. Napoleon Ty
ler with the Bureau of Animal
Industry, Raleigh, was through
here on a routine inspection trip.
Dr. H. J. Rollins, state veterinarian,
terms this the largest outbreak in
the state since VE first made its
appearance in North Carolina in
August 1952.
State and federal investigators
say that absolutely none of the
pigs will leave the Newport lot
alive.
Because VE is a comparatively
new hog disease in this country,
state and federal agencies have
tried to curb it by appropriating
funds to partially reimburse farm
ers whose hogs are infected. But
Dr. Paden says there have been so
many VE outbreaks that funds are
fast dwindling.
There was a recent outbreak
near New Bern. At Hertford 400
head of hogs have been killed re
cently and at Wilmington some
have had to be slaughtered.
The meat is all right if it can be
sterilized and canned, but there
arc no facilities here for doing
that, explained the veterinarian.
Both Dr. Paden and R. M. Wil
liams, county farm agent, empha
sized that there is no reason for
farmers to become alarmed. They
should keep their hogs. The lot at
Newport will remain under strict
quarantine until a method of de
stroying the hogs is decided on.
17-Year-Old Negro Boy Plays
Vampire,' Gets Shot in Face
Sheriff Hugh Sailer Mid Wed
nesday that Willie Culley, 17-year
old Harlowe Negro who was shot in
the face Friday night in "getting
along all right." Culley is in More
head City Hospital where he is be
ing treated for a bullet wound from
a .22 rifle.

woman between 35 and 40 years of
age. who lives at Harlowe.

,ing around in the Bladenboro sec
lion. Kenner told his wife before he
j left home that night not to let
[ anybody in because "that blood
sucking thing might get vou."
Shortly after 8 o'clock Culley
reportedly got the idea he could
scare Robena by scratching on the
door and making her think he was
the vampire. Imitating a bear, he
scratched on the door and frighten
cd the woman causing her to grab
the rifle and fire through a hole in
the door. The shot struck the
youth in the face, just to the right
of th? now.
He was taken to the Horehead
City Hospital where his condition
late Friday night was considered
critical.
Ironically. Culley and Rabena ?
son were out together Friday eve
ning and the latter wis nearby
when the shot wa* fired.
Deputy Sheriff Edwards says
that no charges have been brought/
against the woman.
"He was trying to scare her. She
didn't know what was out there,
and she was alone in the house,"
the officer pointed out.
After being shot Culley rushed
around to the hack of the house
and entered the house shouting,
"I'm going to die."

Attorney General
Says Track Law
Unconstitutional
Supreme Court to Hear
Arguments on Currituck
Track Feb. 2
The attorney general of North
Carolina has labeled the law that
led to establishment of the dog
racing track in Currituck County
as "clearly unconstitutional."
Attorney General Harry McMul
lan made this statement Monday
in a brief filed before the State
Supreme Court in the name of the
State of North Carolina. The brief
asks the court to rule out a local
act of the 1949 General Assembly
which allowed establishment of
the race track at Moyock in Cur
rituck.
Two cases testing the legality of
the Currituck track are now
awaiting the court's attention. Oral
arguments are set for Feb. 2
in both of them one a civil action
attacking the track as a public
nuisance, the second a test case
where three Virginia men were ar
rested on the criminal charge of
gambling at the track
On Wednesday lawyers represent
ing Currituck County (who benefits
from the track take), Currituck
County Racing Commission and
the Carolina-Virginia Racing As
sociation asked the State Supreme
Court to let them take part in
the cases as friends of the court.
If the court allows their re
quest, they may file a brief and
argue in defense of the law that
established the Currituck track.
The lawyers are John G. Dawson
of Kinston, John B. McMullan of
F'lizabeth City, Welton F. Walker
of Currituck and W. A. Lucas of
Wilson.
The brief presented by the at:
torney gcnoral to the State Sur
prme Court Monday not only hits
the law setting v? t*ie track at
Currituck but also the law wjMeh
atiowcri establishment of Ihe track
at Morehead City. The Currituck
track operates, under a law sim
ilar to the Morehead City one.
"Regardless of any moral mo
tives or of any questions of right
and wrong," said McMullan's brief
"the Currituck act is clearly uncon
stitutional."
McMullan told the high court
that the policy of the State is
