Newport FHA
Group Organizes
By NADINE GARNER
School days are here again,
friends. Our homework is begin
ning to pile up around us. But
along with this homework comes
the clubs. The one that I am going
to talk about is the Future Home
makers of America Club.
We, the Newport Chapter of
FHA, are now getting organized
for the year 1994-59. We met last
week and elected officers.
They are as follows: president;
Patricia Reynolds; vice-president. 1
Rita Mann; secretary'. Gaynelle
Gray; treasurer, Virginia Ann Hill;
reporter, Nadine Garner.
The parliamentarian, song lead
er, etc., will be chosen later.
Among the excitement is the
FHA District . Rally which to be
held at Goldsboro Oct. 2. The
members of the Newport Chapter
are planning to attend are Jo Ann
Wade, Rita Mann, Annette Page,
Jean Mason, Ellen Gray, Pat Rey
nolds and Josephine Roberts.
We all hope that they have good
luck and a swell time, and we are
looking forward to hearing all
about the trip when they return.
The initiation of the new FHA
members is another highlight,
which is taking place this week.
The older members are getting
quite a kick out of M, as well as
the new members.
The whole thing has been very
funny so far and the programs
coming up will be equally funny,
I'm sure. But all good things must
come to an end.

ehaii he clenched his fist and acted
aa if he would like to hit Wheatly.
Chief Testifies
Beaufort Police Chief M. E. Guy
testified that Willi* told him on
the night of the alleged robbery
that he waa at a atop >ign when the
boys came up to him and asked him
for a match. He said Willis teld
him that he started to give the
light when the boys jumped in the
car and stuck a kaife in his rib*
and told him to drive behind the
school house.
Chief Guy said Willis also told
him the same story be had just
told in court.
llarker told Chief Guy that they
were just going to scare Willis at
first. Chief tiuy also said that Wil
liams told him they didn't think
Willi* had any right coming to
tlieir section of town looking for
what he was looking for.
Attorney Wheatly then called
three witnesses to the stand. None
of them was over 16 years old. All
were colored boys.
Called to Stand
Joe "Cree" Carter, 15, testified
that Willis called him to the car
and asked him if he could 'ind him
a woman. Carter said he told him
that he couldn't but called Abra
ham Williams.
He said that he went behind the
school house with Williams, Willis,
and Harker "to see what was go
ing to happen." He claimed that
when he got there Willis was bleed
ing and saying "I still want what
I came after."
Tom McLaia, 16, took fhe stand
and said that he went behind the
school because he had heard that
there was a white boy back there
with a colored girl.
When he arrived Willis was tell
ing the boys that he still wanted
what he was looking for.
At that point Willis broke the
hush of the tense court room and
exclaimed loudly, "And you're go
ing to get what you're asking for."
Chief Guy and Assistant Chief
Carlton Garner told him to keep
quiet.
Abraham Williams didn't tell a
clear story at first but after some
prompting from Attorney Wheatly
he admitted that Willis gave him
$17 to "get him a woman." He
said that Wilder was the one who
hit Willis and that they all got a
little money from him. He claimed
that he didn't know anything about
the watch but said he had the knife
which was taken from Willis.
Harker had turned the watch
over to the court.
Solicitor Gene Smifh told the
court, "It appears that the witness
has perjured himself and the state
will accept Vi lesser plea."
Attorney Wheatly entered a plea
of forcible trespassing and Judge
Mason taxed the three boys costs
of court.
Wheatly asked the judge if the
boys could have a couple of weeks
to pay the costs.
Judge Mason answered, "They
can take all the time they want."
Solicitor Smith filled out a war
rant for Willis on charges of per
jury, contributing to the delinquen
cy of minors, and using vulgar lan
guage.
judge Mason iookcu ai wmis dim
said, "I don't know what's to be
come of someone like you. This
thing is a disgrace to any race,
whether white or colored." #
Willis jumped up and said, red
faced, "Now wait just a minute."
Chief Guy said, "You sit down
and shut up."
Willis sat quietly as Chief Guy
signed the warrants for his arrest.
Willis was taken to the county
jail and placed under $500 bond.
In the news report of the Willis
attack in Friday's NEWS-TIMES,
Willis was erroneously identified
as "Joseph Earl."
Following the Wednesday fracas,
Officers Carlton Garner and Steve
Beachem went back on Queen
Street with Willis and picked up a
Negro they identified as "Albert
Jones." Clerk of Court Dan Walker
said that "Jones" is Albert Hocks
and a warrant against him, charged
him with striking two officers, was
changed accordingly.
After the trial in court Tuesday
afternoon the case against Mucks
was dismissed.

and Madie Dickinson Piner,

Against Racket
* The "flim flam" artists are again

This time they have invaded the
telephone business.
C .J L?gan. (^strict ?oaiaercial
Manager (or Carolina Telephone
and Telegraph Co. stated today that
the (In ad was (list reported .in
Rocky Mount.
According to Mr. Logan, a man
identifying himself as a "represent
ative" ?( the telephone company
appeared at a residence in Rocky
Mount and collected $15 as a "de
posit" for a telephone to be install
ed. The resident not having re
ceived telephone service several
days later, notified the company.
She was informed that there was
no such "representative."
The district manager pointed out
that his company collects all pay
ments for telephone service at its
business office and urged local
citizens to ask for proper identifi
cation if they should be approached
by anyone making "deposit soli
citations."
Similar cases of this racket have
been reported in Raleigh and
Charlotte.
