THE YANCEY RECORD GARDEN TIME BY: M. E. GARDNER A White House Conference on Natural Beauty was re cently held in Washington. Dr. Seibert, of the American Horticultural Society, at tended the conference and was concerned that none of the participating panels stressed a consideration of plants and their importance in maintaining natural bea uty. Most of the discussion centered around auto graveyards, billboards, etc. He prepared a statement and requested that it be In-- eluded in the Proceedings of the White House Conference on Natural Beauty. I am quoting, in part, from his report. Cultivated plants, and plants growing in their na tural environment, are im portant in creating, restor ing and maintaining the natural beauty of our ra tional landscape.

More research is needed to test ev*»ina f e p’ants that are suable for u*e In the beautification programs i-> all section* of America. This is due to the wide range of environmen tal differences we find be tween Maine and Florida, as example. Horticultural education and the training of compet ent plantsmen must become a part of America’s effort to restore and preserve our na'ural beauty. The current national at tention which the President is placing on “A More Beau tiful America” must be brought to the attention of all citizens if it Is to be ef fective. Whether or not it is effective will depend upon how much individual respon sibility each of us is willing to assume. Dr. Seibert makes one suggestion which I has merit. He suggests that collabration with Walt Dis ney in the production of “a hard hitting movie stressing t*HE RIVER HIGHLIGHTS By: Pat Letterman The Cane River Rebels met the Cranberry Wildcats on the Cranberry field Fri day night.
