Writes Original Poem
“First Things", an original
poem by Quentin Knloe of Svvan
nanoa, will appear later this year
in a leather-bound volume pub
lished by the National Poetry As
sociation of Los Angeles, Calif.
The verse will be included in the
'Voice of America,” a book which
will reprint the outstanding poetic
works which have been published
in over 200 annual anthologies of
poetry during the past 14 years.
After appearing in ‘•Bluets,’’ lit
erary magazine of Asheville-Bilt
more college last year, Enloe en
tered the verse in the North Car
olina poetry contest in September.
He received an autographed copy
of '-Rainbow Through the Web”
from writer Lena Merle Shull
when the poem was judged a book
award winner in the state-wide
contest. Shortly following last
year's competition, he mailed the
poem to Dennis Hartmann, secre
tary of the National Poetry As
sociation in Los Angeles. A week
later, he received a letter from
Hartman, informing him that
“First Things” had been selected
to appear in the 1951 Annual
Anthology of College Poetry. And,
just recently, Hartman wrote Enloe
again asking permission to pub
lish the poem in the new “Voice
of America” publication. Enloe re
cently graduated at Asheville
Biltmore college. He is the son of
Mr. and Mrs. L. E. Enloe of Buck
eye, and is married to the former
Miss Margaret June Stephenson.
Beacon Tops Kcusta, 1-0
Leroy Bailey’s two-bagger scor
ing Wade Martin in the first inn
ing provided the Beacon Blanket
eers with ample scoring to shut
out the Ecusta nine, 1-0, Tuesday
afternoon, June 12. The game was
called at the end of the eighth
after the last three innings were
played in the rain. Lefty Flill And
ers allowed the Papermakers only
four hits. Jim Kilpatrick checked
Beacon with only six safeties and
got the only extra base blow, a
double, off Anders. Fritz Merrell
was the only Ecusta runner to
reach third. He was left strand
ed when Anders tanned two bats
men. Charlie Ferguson’s three hits
in four trips was outstanding for
the winners. Troy Drake had two
for four for Ecusta. The win sent
Beacon to within a game and a
half of pace-setting Berkley.

HOW LITRE IT COSTS TO PHONE!
Around-the'dock telephone service costs North Carolina homes
an average of less than Vfct an hour
Ever stopped to think how many trips your tele
phone saves you? Or what the transportation costs
would amount to for the trips to town and across
town that you avoid by telephoning?
Just think—the telephone stands ready to run
errands for North Carolina homes 24 hours a day
for an average charge of less than one-half cent
an hour!
Whether you evaluate your telephone service in
terms erf transportation costs saved, time saved,
“missions accomplished,” protection in cate erf
emergency—or just in the friendship and good
times that result from keeping in touch_you’ll
find your telephone is still a big bargain!
