cial!/ started Wednesday and will

Gerald Hill, treasurer of the
Baaufort School Band Association,
has also mailed letters requesting 1
dotations. Each one who contri
butes will receive a Band Booster
Tag.
Frank Jones, band director, com
menting on plans for the ban#
during the current year, said that i
the band will play in the Azalea
Peatival at Wilmington next spring
if invited. Some band members 1
will attend the eastern district
hand clinic at Greenville the first i
week in February and Mr. Jones
nid he would like to take the en- |
tire band to East Carolina College,
Greenville, to compete in the dis- >
trict band festival in March.
At the ECC band clinic last
spring Winki Willis was awarded i
first chair baritone and Sammy I
Merrill fourth chair solo clarinet
in competition with 32 other clari
netists.
Two band officers were recently
elected. They are Ada Sue Owens,
president, and Dorothy Searle,
vice-president.

of the band are Sammy Merrill,
clarinet; Tommy Jones and Jimmy
Murphy, trumpet; Ada Sue Owens,

The band has a few new and re

Bern and one at Raleigh with the
Morehead City band, and they
played at the formal opening of
the Sea Level Community Hospi

would like to."

Carnivals Get Boot
(Continued from Page 1)
lished. The protest blanks eame
from all corners of the county.
JC$ Join Fight
Then the Morehead City Jaycees
swung into action and passed a
resolution April 30. 1951, asking
the county commissioners to "es
tablish a ruling prohibiting travel
ing carnivals consisting of lewd
shows and with unsanitary condi
tions ... showing within the 'coun
ty limits."
On Sunday. May 6. the adult de
partment of the First Methodist
Sunday School of Morehead City
voted unanimously to add their
protest to the snowballing cam
paign to ban carnivals.
Meanwhile Sheriff C. G. Holland
told the carnival, after it had
made the move to Morehead City,
to get out.
Naturally, Carteret Post No. 99.
American Legion, which sponsors
a "county fair," was getting ready
to battle for they had no intention
of giving up the annual opportun
ity to feather their nest by bring
ing in the only easy, surefire way
of parting the people and their
money.
Why?
Prior to the county board meet
ing May 14. when the county at
torney was instructed to ''rrw up
a resolution banning car. lval*, an
editorial, entitled Carnivals Must
Go, appeared in THE NEWS
TIMES. The reasons why. were
listed. Briefly, they are these:
1. Carnivals encourage law
breaking, drunkenness, fights,
pick pocketing, shooting. Instances
were cited where such occurred in
other counties, incljding murder
of an 8-year-old girl in a carnival
trailer.
2. Carnivals are unsanitary nests
of filth, lacking proper toilet fa
cilities and water supply. Yet food
is sold there and the shows fur
nish a splendid focal point for
spread of disease.
3. Businessmen report that
whenever carnivals are in towi
business is S-L-O-W.
At the May 14 county board
meeting, commissioners said they'd
like to see carnivals banned. But
their legal counsel said he didn't
know of any law by which it
could be done Then TffK NEWS
TIMES reporter presented the
protest blanks that had been sent
to the NEWS-TIMES office by
130 readers.
It was pointed out that these
protests were different from the
usual petition in that no one car
ried the blank to people to sign,
each required a 3 cent stamp for
mailing and some, from readers
temporarily outside the county
were even sent by air mail.
The reporter also called the
county board's attention to North
Carolina's public laws, 1919, chap
ter 164. the statute which gives
county boards authority to outlaw
carnivals.
With this information, plus com
I ments from a delegation from the
Carteret Ministers Association, the
commissioners authorized the
drawinj-up of the much-desired
no-carnival resolution.
Desired, that is, by everyone ex
cept the American Legion. Up
standing citizens of Beaufort who
were members of the Legion,
pleaded in person and by letter
that they be permitted to have an
"agricultural fair."
The county board conceded and
thus section 3 was included in the
resolution. Section 3 says, "It is
not the purpose of this ordinance
to exclude from this county any
legitimate entertainment, educa
tional or otherwise, such as agri
cultural fairs or midways, so long
as such operation is found to be
entirely legitimate."
Thus the battle was only partial
; ly won and Beaufort, each Octo
ber, suffers from the lewd, revolt
| ing "county fair."
