Emeritus Civic
Club Promotes
State Park
Promiting t ho development of
Fort Macon State Park, a project
of the Emeritus Civic Club, was
carried forward this week with a
letter from the club president, W
S. Kidd, to Ben Douglas, director
of the Department of Conservation
and Development.
The letter follows:
Emeritus Civic Club
Morehead City. N. C.
Dear Sir:
We wish to call to your atten
tion certain improvements and ad
ditions to Fort Macon State I'ark
which we feel could be made at
very little expense, thereby en
hancing its value from an educa
tional and recreational standpoint
and to the pleasure and comfort of
its many visitors.
As you no doubt know, the State
has already provided a large and
rather costly structure on top of a
large sand dune with tables,
benches, and a large fire place. It
is a well built open pavilion, de
lightfully located to view the
ocean, Bogue Sound, Beaufort,
Morehead City, and on clear days,
Cape Lpokout lighthouse. However,
for the want of a short paved road
and parking lot. the pavilion is just
about useless- being unaccessible
to families with small children and
older folks who are unable to climb
the steep sand dune, especially
when carrying a lunch basket.
Would it not be possible to build
a short, substantial road and ample
parking space at very little cost in
order to make available the present
structure which was built at con
siderable cost?
ur/...|j it ??? aI>.a Ka n/uoikln in
nuuiu ll liui disu uc (JOsaiuic IU
build one or two solid walkways
from the present parking lot out to
the boardwalk and beach where the
same condition prevails, only not
so severe and impossible as de
scribed in the above paragraph?
This is the only state park on
the North Carolina sea coast, and
so far as we can recall, it is the
first sea coast state park south of
Jones Beach. New York. We have
been informed that it has far more
visitors and is enjoyed by far more
people than any other park in any
part of the state. If this is correct,
would it not be a good investment
to build a longer boardwalk with
more shelters equipped with com
fortable benches where one could
sit and enjoy the ocean, the surf,
and the cool breeze, especially
those not physically able to trudge
through the sand and sit out on
the beach in the glare of the sun?
For those interested in history
and architecture, the state has lit
tle to offer that surpasses Fort Ma
con. It is an architectural gem.
For that reason we strongly recom
mend the appropriation of the com
paratively small amount necessary
for its complete restoration. Fort
Macon State Park has everything:
history, architecture, scenery, a
beautiful beach for bathing and
surf fishing, and a delightful cli
mate. It is an unexcelled natural
setting without the benefit of neon
lights, juke boxes and honky tonks.
It is clean, orderly and well man
aged.
Why not give Fort Macon State
Park a break and appropriate the
relatively small amount necessary
for all the people who enjoy his
tory, art, and ' healthful seashore
recreation, and a park of which
North Carolina could justly be
proud. The number visiting this
park annually, even under adverse
circumstances, tells the story.
Respectively yours,
W. S. Kidd

'Whiskers' Measure Safe
Railroad Clearances
Sacramento, Calif. (AP) ? The

A special car is equipped with

When the feelers touch an ob
