STRUCK it RICH!
Following my mention last
,n,eh of becoming the owner
llt- a crisp $10.00 bill in Con
federate money and bragging
iodestly about same in a loud
v dee, John W. Clarke of Black
Mountain, Route 1, brought in
e whole “frame full” of mon
,,Vi There were three tens
..'ad one fifty. I tried to find
propicious time to slip one
or two in my pocket but he
never would turn his head. In
fact he kept an eagle eye on
the collection throughout.
His bills, which have been
in the possession of his family
generations since the Civil
War, were in good condition
and were also issued in Rich
mond, in 1864. The story is
that those carrying a Mont
gomery, Alabama, date line
are really valuable.
Mr. Clarke’s Confederate
money was handed down from
his grandfather, the Rev. Dab
ney Duncan, a Baptist minis
ter of Pickens County, Ala
bama. Mr. Clarke recalls that
at one time the family had a
whole chest full of Confeder
ate money and he assumes
that this is a part of that col
lection.
His mother gave it to his
Mster’s children to play with,
but she reclaimed it and sent
it to Mr. Clarke.
My thought is that if we
hold it long enough it’ll be
worth its weight in Yankee
gold.

OWEN WARHOREES
The Owen High school
Warhorses in their first out
ing of the year against a
much heavier Asheville High
eleven made a respectable
showing and gave promise
of developing into a contend
er in their own league and
class. The Maroon-Devils
were newer able to launch a
sustained drive against the
fierce tackling Warhorses,
but used the breaks—fum
bles and poor ball hand
ling—-to run up the score.
This of course is not in
tended to take anything
away from the Lee Edwards
boys who played heads-up
ball throughout and used
every break to advantage.
Indications are that Owen
this year will use a more
wide open brand of attack
than was the case in other
years.
Against Asheville High
the locals made very little
progress in running hut did
much better when they op
ened up the line and took to
the air.
It was an excellent show
ing for the first game.
They'll be better.

DOCTOR ON BENCH
Efforts are being made by
Owen High officials and
caching staff to have a doc
tor sitting on the bench at
each game. They would be
ihven a pass and invited to sit
with the team to make sure
that each boy receives proper
examination and treatment in
ease of injury.
As a further precaution Bill
Maine is always on hand with
an ambulance from Harrison
funeral Home.

Kennedy Will
Speak Saturday
In Asheville
Senator John F. Kennedy,
Democratic nominee for Pres
ident, of the United States,
"ill make a public address at
McCormick Field, Asheville
Saturday, Sept. 17, I960, at
1:30 p.m. His address will be
open to the public and every
one is invited to attend.
It is expected that a caravan
will originate in each of the
counties of North Carolina to
proceed to McCormick Field,
arriving by 12:00 o’clock noon!
In the party with Senator
Kennedy will be Gov. Luther
H. Hodges, United States Sen
ators Sam J. Ervin and B.
Everett Jordan, Terry Sanford,
Democratic nominee for gov
ernor, H. Cloyd Philpott, Dem
ocratic nominee for Lt. Gov
ernor, together with other dig
nitaries. Also accompanying
the party will be nearly 200
newsmen, both state and na
tional.
Senator Kennedy’s appear
ance at Asheville will follow
a brief press conference in
Greenville, N. C., and a brief
speech at the airport in
Greensboro. After his address
at McCormick Field in Ashe
ville, Senator Kennedy plans
to fly to Charlotte in the late
afternoon, and then to Rale
igh where he will appear on
a state-wide television and
radio broadcast at night.
This is the first time that
a candidate for President of
the United States has cam- ■
paigned in Western North ,
Carolina since William Jen
nings Bryan. President Frank
lin D. Roosevelt appeared at ,
the same McCormick Field in
1936, where he was here as
President of the United States
in connection with the ded
ication of the Great Smoky
Mountains National Park.
It is expected that the ap- 1
pearance of Senator Kennedy,
together with all the state i
and national officials in North
Carolina, will draw a tre
mendous crowd to McCormick 1
Field. Officials request that
persons attending arrive at 1
McCormick Field as early as :
possible. The appearance of ’
Senator Kennedy on the stand 1
to make his address will be
preceded by an entertainment :
program and the presentation ,
of candidates and Democratic ,
officials of Western North ,
Carolina. j
It is requested that all per- 1
sons proceed directly to Mc
Cormick Field, as Senator j
Kennedy will not make a pub- |
lie appearance at the airport j
upon arrival, and it is possi- <
ble that he may be transport- j
ed from the airport to the ]
field by helicopter. ;
Second Coming |
Of Christ Will i
Be Sermon Topic;
Will Christ come again in J
this generation? Will we see
Him ? Will we know our loved 1
ones? Is 1960 the crucial •
year? What are the “Signs ‘
of the Time” How about the s
automobile? I he Middle Hast.
Russia? Rocket ships? These
are only some of the questions
to be answered at the area
wide rally to be held at
Friendship Church on Montreat
road this Sunday afternoon at
3:00 o’clock by the Rev. John
Woodhouse. Evangelist Wood
house is now conducting a
great revival campaign at
Friendship church, speaking ?

The Sunday afternoon topic
of the Second Coming of
Christ promises to be the
most interesting and signifi- j
cant subject of the campaign.
The public is urged to attend. <

Black Mountain
Builders Busy
On New Homes
Mr. and Mrs. Robin Amoss
moved into their new home in
the Charmeldee Acres tract on
McCoy Cove road last week.
They had been living in one
of the George Field houses on
McCoy Cove road while their
new home was being built by
C. “Cliff" Meyers, builder.
Plans for the Amoss home
were prepared by H. McGuire
Wood of Black Mountain.
Mrs. Amoss was born and
reared in New England but
they had lived most of their
married lives in Glenellyn and
in Wheaton, 111., both com
munities close to Chicago. Mr.
Amoss was associated with
the V. Mueller and Company
of Chicago, an internationally
known manufacturer of surg
ical instruments. He was
secretary of the company
when he retired and moved
to Black Mountain.
The new home for Mr. and
Mrs. William McMurray, Jr
is taking shape on North Fork
road adjoining Lakewood in
the new Alexander tract be
ing developed by Valley Rea!
Estate of Black Mountain.
The McMurray home is be
ing built by Frank Byrd,
builder of Black Mountain,
from plans drawn by H. Mc
Guire Wood. The new colon
ial design home features large,
light, basement recreation
areas which will be enjoyed
by the young family who are
moving here from our neigh
boring community of Swan
nanoa. Mr. McMurray and his
father have operated the Mc
Murray Chevrolet agency here
for many years.
Mr. and Mrs. J. Herbert Co
man. another well known
young couple in the Swan
nanoa Valley, have their new
home under construction on
a portion of the Alexander
property which lies on the
south side of old US 70 just
south of Grovemont. The Co
mans are now living in one
of the original homes in the
Grovemont development but
look forward to being able
to move into their new home
in the early fall. Their home
is being built for them by
Harold Crisp, builder of Ashe
ville, from plans prepared by
H. McGuire Wood of Black
Mountain. Mr. Coman is per
sonnel manager for Beacon
Manufacturing company.

Youth Program
Developed By
Civic Council
The Black Mountain Civic
Council was formed a number
of years ago to help coordin
ate various projects of the
civic clubs and to provide a
means for several clubs to
work together on larger pro
jects. The membership of the
Civic Council consists of the
presidents and the immediate
past presidents of all the civic
clubs in the Black Mountain
area. It meets quarterly and
on call.
Several years ago the Civic
Council undertook a summer
youth recreation program with
money from the County Unit
ed Appeal. This program was
operated by Eugene Byrd and
a number of volunteers using
the school grounds, town
swimming pool, and tennis
court. This summer program
came to an end in 1959 when
the United Appeal, after due
notice, withdrew its financial
support.
A number of practical con
siderations made this step
necessary for the United Ap
peal but none of them re
flected unfavorably upon Mr.
Byrd’s program nor on the
need for a youth program in
the community.
The Civic Council consid
ered other ways of operating
a youth program. Several na
tional and local organizations
were consulted. Finally it
was decided to use the advice
and services of the Depart
ment of Recreation of the N.
C. State college. Representa
tives from the State College
department visited Black
Mountain, surveyed the facil
ities, talked with many, and
made suggestions for a youth
program.
Among the suggestions was
that a central building and
location for a youth center
would be preferable to using
school facilities as the center,
especially if a year ’round pro
gram could be undertaken.
At this time a project of
the Kiwanis club for land and
a clubhouse for Boy Scouts

BLACK MOUNTAIN
PTA WILL MEET
AT 7:30 TONIGHT
The Black Mountain PTA
will meet Thursday night
(tonight) in the Primary
school auditorium. All par

The meeting will begin at
7:30. Carl Bowness, president,

Warhorses Will
Meet Bethel
Friday Night
Football fans of the Swan
nanoa Valley will get their
first look at the 1960 Owen
High School Warhorses when
the charges of Coach Howard
Barnwell take on Bethel in a
Blue Ridge conference game at
Shuford Field Friday evening.
Kickoff time has been set for
7:30.
Because of injuries suffered
by key players in the Asheville
High contest last week, the lo
cals are not expected to be
at full strength.
Bethel is always strong and
last year played the Warhors
es on even terms until the last
few seconds of the game when
a long run brought victory for
the Owen High 11.
Although beaten 30-6 by a
heavier, more experienced Lee
Edwards team last week, the
Warhorses showed flashes of
power and fans expect them
to develop as the season moves
along.
Unable to move against the
enemy line, the Warhorses
went to the air and scored a
touchdown and completed 11
out of 24 tries for an extreme
ly good showing in this de
partment. The score came on
a pass from Marvin Harper to
Bobby Lowe, the play cover
ing 15 yards.
Fumbles hurt the Warhors
es in the early stages of the
game and they fell two touch
downs behind early in the first
quarter. In the second the
Asheville High line broke I
through and tossed Owen '
backs for two safeties. :
