Anne K. Sarp, Chm. Poet’s Corner, Creative Writing Club. NVOMKN in civil defense (Cut out and file) All of our World War II ideas about civil defense are completely out of date. This was stated in the report by the Atomic Energy thermo-nuclear weapons on the “fallout.” In the Bikini test of the hydro gen bomb the dangerous fallout covered an area of 7,000 sq. miles. A change in the wind carried the radioactive particles to wholly un expected places. The contaminated zone was a downwind cigar-shaped area 140 miles long and 20 miles wide. I he Atomic Energy committee suid that in case of a late model H-bomb explosion, the area would be “many times” as great as that of Hiroshima which was within a radius of one mile from the cen ter. We must concern ourselves with a 20 mile strip running all the way across Carolina, depending on the direction of the wind. No siren could warn people at these distances so that this area night be evacuuted in a few min Jtes after a “warning.” There is io help for people within two or three miles of the center. The inly hope for the rest is to take shelter. The AEC says that the jest shelter is an old-fashioned cy tiune cellar. Next best is the jasement of a house, and then the nside of a house with all windows I THE family that prays together stays together. *Ry member of the family needs the services of the church.

Sharp, Chm. for “Women in Civil Defense with the American Home and Civic Club. In terms of poundage, the com pany’s spinning program during the latter part of February was the largest on record, company of ficials stated. This increase in production has brought about the hiring of 235 employees at the Enka plant, of which 20 had previously been on permanent layoff. The layoff list was exhausted before the job open ings were offered to new people, according to Plant Manager E. M. Salley, Jr. Total employment at the Enka plant is now about 3,400 with an annual payroll of over $12,000,000. Generally, the company’s out look for the first half of 1955 has been termed “good” by President John E. Kassill. “However,” he cautioned, “there is no assurance of continued good business during the last half of the year. The outlook for the last half cannot be judged at this time.” LEGAL NOTICES NOTICE NORTH CAROLINA, BUNCOMBE COUNTY. The undersigned having qualified as Administratrix of the Estate of Isabel L.

THE NORTHWESTERN RANK BLACK MOUNTAIN • OLD FORT There’s even more to Chevrolet styling than meets the eye! This is beauty with a bonus ... for Chevrolet styling is designed to add safety and comfort while you drive, and to return greater value when you trade. Truly modern lines are shaped by usefulness. You can see what we mean in the deep crystal curve of Chevrolet’s Sweep Sight windshield ... a dramatic style note, certainly, but one that stems from the need for wider, safer vision. Or take high set taillights—they add to the impressive length of line . . . but they are up there where they can be seen for safety’s sake; and as convenient guides in parking. So, too, with the jutting peaks over the headlights. The smart louvers across the hood aren’t just decoration . . . they mark the intake for the High-Level ventilation system for cleaner, fresher air. And the whole shape of the body—its lowness, the dipped belt line—is merely a reflection of a lowered center of gravity, the added stability. This is truly functional styling that serves you better every mile, and preserves its value against the distant day when you trade. This is Body by Fisher—another Chevrolet exclu sive in the low-price field. Come in and let us demonstrate that this new Chevrolet is just as exciting to drive as to look at! motoramic CHEVROLET ly CHEVROLET /j STEALING THE THUNDER FROM THE HIGH-PRICED CARS!
