This shrubbery consists mostly of native stock including yaupon and camellias. Thrift has been trans planted along the walk and along side the building. In the early spring we are planning to seed the ground with carpet grass seed. The school annual. Whispering Pines, is so named because of the pines that grew in front of the buildings. Many of these have died. The students have planted about fifty pines for replacements. As a result of the planting "bug" which the students acquired by these undertakings, some of the boys decided to order strawberry plants for their supervised farm ing programs. These plants were ordered co-operatively by the Chapter in order to obtain more favorable prices. During the basketball season, it became evident that our seating capacity was insufficient. In addi tion to the bleachers erected three years ago, new bleachers were erected by the boys. This project ployed skills associated with Carpentry work. The above paragraphs would in dicate that our chapter it devoted to *11 work and no play, but this is not the case. Early in the school year we erected two ping-pong ta bles which were placed in the shop. Each day at activity and lunch periods, the boys rush over to play. We are now conducting a tourna ment to determine the school champion. We hope to be able to challenge other outstanding county players in the future. Improvements have been made in the agriculture building to cre ate a better teaching and learning atmosphere. A gasoline engine manufacturer provided us free of charge a gasoline engine, teaching and student manuals, and teaching charts. This engine course was studied with great interest. Vlsaal aids are asH a great deal in our classroom instruction. It became necessary to provide fa cilities for blacking out the class room. We obtained canvas from the federal surplus property agen cy and made our own black-out curtains. In the shop we also used federal surplus material to construct rott ers or conveyors to roll lumber on in order to ease the handling prob lems. Our FFA groap has always loved socials. We are in the process of building an outdoor fireplace on school property in order to have adequate facilities for these par ties. We hope to have lights and running water installed soon. We are now planning for the elt Anybody Have It? For iti forthcoming play, A Man Called Peter, the cast needs the music of Roamln' in the Gloamin' and can't locate it any where. If anyone has it, would they please loan it for one week, asks Miss Hortense Boomer, director of the play. The play will be given at $ p.m. next Tuesday night in the recreation building, Morehead City. Miss Boomer says several folks have the music to In the Gloam ing, but the music the cast needs is Roamin' in the Gloamin'. If anyone has it and is willing to lend it, please phone THE NEWS-TIMES, PA6-417S. Fire Damages Hotel Ft. Macon Fire damaged the Hotel Fort Macon end Busy Bee Restaurant, Morehead City, early Sunday morn ing. fclotel residents smeiled the smoke and the (ire department re ceived the alarm about S?30?.m According to reports, the (ire started in the boiler in the base ment of the restaurant. It burned through the back wall and floor to the restaurant kitchen and into the hotel. Although there was a lot of smoke, there wasn't much fire and most of the damage was done by smoke and water, according to Nick Galantis, restaurant manag er. The restaurant is closed for repairs and had recently been re painted. The dollars and cents estimate of damage bad not been made yes terday, but the loss was covered by insurance. max of our school year, that being the annual father-ton banquet. All the boys and Mr. Owena are look ing forward to that occaiion. Storm (Continued from Page 1) his 40-foot mast and even though the Iscojem was close by they couldn't see it from time to time because of the deep troughs of water in which the ships were wal lowing. Meantime, the captain and his mate got their engine started and one of the pumps working. They advised the Iscojem that they were heading for Oregon Inlet. They sailed for 23 hours. Captain Smith said that they didn't see any of the Coast Guard rescue craft searching for them Friday. The Chilula, out of More'* head City, was one of the Coast Guard vessels on the hunt. At 7 o'clock Saturday morning the lookout on duty at Oregon In let Coast Guard station sighted the Dolphin off the bar. The men had used a white bunk sheet as a dis tress flag. A lifeboat crew from the station went to the Dolphin and escorted her to a safe mooring at the south side landing of Oregon Inlet ferry. Captlia Smith and Rose left the Dolphin there and were flown to At lantic by BiU Corcoran of Ocra-' coke. Smith doubts that there is much damage to the Dolphin other than the lost antenna and the re pair needed on the pumps. He plans to go to Oregon Inlet today to bring the trawler back to Atlantic. Asked for a probable explanation as to why the Coast Guard couldn't locate tbem, Smith excused it with the comment that the boat is small (45 feet) and the seas were rough. Some of the catch aboard the Dolphin was saved, but the storm washed out much of the ice used on the fish. Captaia Smith weat yesterday to Sea Level hospital to bring home his wife, the former Ann Pittman of Atlantic, and their new daugh ter. Windy Gale has a brother, Mark Edmond, 14 months old.
