'Round About Town
By ALICE H. TAYLOR
News this week is pretty scarce
due to the long seige of rainy
weather, but even at that, every
cloud must have its silver lining
Since the weather has cleared, it
seems the shrubs are busily put
ting forth new shoots, and the rye
grass planted is beginning to make
a lovely showing.
Those who haven't planted theirs
as yet should get busy because
their lawns will certainly make
a poor appearance in their drab
brown as compared with the vivid
velvet green of rye grass lawns.
Doubtless you've read in THE
NEWS-TIMES about the free soil
testing stations that have been set
up in the county for two weeks.
This public service is available not
only to farmers but home garden
ers as well. But people are funny
. . . if they had to pay a little some
thing to have their soil tested,
chances are they'd respond more
readily than they would since the
service is free.
If you're wondering why certain
shrubs or flowers don't do well
on your property, and thrive on
others, chances are you're using
the wrong fertilizer analysis, and
that's where this service is so bene
ficial.
Why not drop by Gaskill's Store
here in town and receive the re
gulation boxes for deposit of your
soil and full instructions as to the
procedure? They'll be sent to Ra
leigh, analysed, and returned with
complete information as to what
type fertilizer your land requires
for best results. Take advantage of
this service today.
Though activity has been slow,
there have been some improve
ments made. Mayor Piggie Potter
has cleared the big lot back of his
home, making it almost possible
to see all the way across the block
. . . hear he's also planning to bull
doze and clean his business pro
perties up town . . .
Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Guthrie
have purchased two big residential
building lots in Glendale Park, and
are planning to start their new
home as soon as possible . . . and
one of the most beautiful remodel-,
ing jobs in town was recently j
completed at the Hugh Salter's
Three Family Members
Observe Birthdays
Mr. and Mri. L. C. Dickinson en
tertained at a family dinner Sun*
day at their home, honoring three
ntemberi of tMelr family who were
observing birthdays.
The guests of honor were their
daughter, Mrs. Carlton Robinson;
their granddaughter, Miss Nancy
Mellon; and their daughter-in-law,
Mr*. L. C. Dickinson Jr.
home. A carport, new windows,
and lull upstairs with three big
bedrooms, bath, and tremendous
closet space has truly made this
one of the prettier homes in town,
and one whose yard is always kept
at the peak of cleanliness and
beauty.
Comments Heard in Passing:
Wouldn't a planned beautification
program for the entire town of
Beaufort be more beneficial than
individual home-owners each act
ing on his own, especially with the
idea of the town being at its
prettiest during the Centennial next
year?
... In towns and cities where
real old homes are a heritage of the
community, most of them have
"antique gardens" planned in keep
ing with the period of the house.
Shouldn't, and couldn't, this be done
in Beaufort?
What about having an "antique
garden" on the site of the proposed
Museum, or reserve a small portion
of the courthouse grounds for this
purpose? . . . It's been noted that
the older homes in New Bern bear
neat plaques or shield! noting the
dates and ages of those homes.
Would residents in Beaufort like
to have the same on the show
places and older homes in town?
They help tourists find places of
greater interest, but are small
enough not to detract ffom the
overall appearance of the resi
dence.
Just a reminder that Thurtday
night, Oct. 29, at 8 o'clock there'll
be a gathering at the Scout Build
ing to determine whether enough
residents are interested in forming
a Garden Club. When you attend
this first meeting . . . and we hope
all of you will . . . bring a seed
ling or rooting to exchange with
other persons present. Make your
plans now to attend.
Fire Call Answered
A fire in a Macon Court apart
ment started while workmen were
cleaning a stove yesterday morn
ing. The Morehead City fire de
partment answered the call. There
was no damage as the result of the
blaze, which had been extinguished
when firemen reached the scene

First Report Cards Go Out
Betas Initiate New Members
By JOANNE ALLEN
One-sixth of the school year has
already passed. Because of this,
report cards have been issued for
the first time.
One unusual change in the re
ports was the absence of conduct
grades. This year conduct is based
on the honor system instead of
grades.
Were you ancf your parents
proud of your first report card?
If not, try exerting a little more
effort next six weeks.
No. the circus had not derided to
educate its clowns. It was just
Beta Club Initiation Day at BH8.
Funnier sights were never seen at
the school.
There seemed to be an increase
in the number of girls in school
and a decrease in the number of
boys.
Gray Simpson looked exactly like
Lucille Sweeny, cigar and all. Don
na Hudnall looked <is if she had
just returned from a Paris fashion
show and had accepted a position
as model for Revlon. Many thought
Sheila Willis's new hair style to
be very stunning. Sheron Wilkin
son had rushed to finish her chores
down on the farm, but she just
didn't have time to change her
work clothes befofe school.
Besides having to dress in out
rageous costumes, the new Beta
members were made to do such
stupid stunts as dancing and sing
ing in the lunchroom and all
around school.
The final part of the initiation
was held Wednesday night in
George Huntley's "Cow Palace."
The initiates were sent on a scaven
ger hunt. They faithfully returned
from the hunt with such items as
a barnacle, a sandfiddler, or one
of coach McQuaid's ties.
Then the members were partici
pants in a variety show. Butch
Hassell stole the show with his in
terpretive ballet. After all this,
the initiates were formal members
of the Beta Club.
This week we introduce Miss
Patricia Ann Hogan as Miss Senior.
Pat was born in Springfield. Mass.,
to Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Hogan on
Dec. 4, 1942. She Has brown hair

Pat moved to Beaufort In 1958
and has won many friends with her
very pleasing personality. Her
favorite song is Autumn Leaves
and her favorite singers are Mario
Lama and Joni James.
Among her subjects Pat enjoys
English most. She loves to swim
and to eat spaghetti. Her pet say
ing, "Not really!" shows that some
of Carteret County is beginning to
rub off on Pat.
Pat's hobby is doing homework,
and she doesn't like for people to
act childish in class. Pat's future
plans are to go to a school of labo
ratory technology and become an
x-ray technician.
During the short while that Pat
has been at BHS, she has been
secretary of the senior class,
treasurer of the Beta Club, and In
the Science Club, Glee Club, and
FT A.
When asked if there was anything
else she would like included. Pat
said, "In the one and one-half
years I have been in BHS I have
enjoyed it very much and hope to
continue here until I graduate."
Mr. Senior is Johnny Robert Jar
man. Johnny was born on Sept.
28, 1942 to Mr. and Mrs. B. F. Jar
man. He has gray eyes, brown
hair, weighs 136 lb., and is 5' 10"
tall.
At the present his favorite sons
is The Three Bells. He likes to hear
The Browns sing. Johnny's other
favorites are subject, general busi
ness; sport, football; food, meat
loaf and french fries; saying,
"Heck." In his leisure time John
ny enjoys hunting. His pet peeve
is English.

bers most in high school was when
