It is as if he has lost his sight, his hearing, his hands. Man, made in the image of God, has inherited a spiritual nature, which places moral values on the activities of life. We must make pro gress toward a higher spirit ual level in our lives if we are to live successfully in an expanding universe.” —Hugh L.

C. ■ ■ I ■ REFLECTIONS By Gordon Greenwood STUDENTS HAVE CHANGED After listening to a group from Owen High School for several hours on Saturday (to and from Wake For est college at Winston-Salem) I have decided that the attitude of students has changed. Included were fresh men, sophomores, juniors, and seniors. While the seniors were the most talkative, the others had definite ideas, too. Never let it be said that high school students are not stimulating. If I didn't know this, I would have changed my mind long before we arrived on the campus of the Baptist institution. —R— LIKES FACULTY Just keeping my ears open and my mouth closed I learned some interesting things. For instance: “I love Latin the way Miss Cole teaches it . . . It’s just like learning to talk again ex cept you’re learning to talk in Latin .... I hope I get Mr. Lytle for English next year. He’s good .... I’m lucky to have Mrs. Nothstein for English. Boy, does she know her subject . . . When she starts to explain something, I just smile to myself at how lucky I am to be in her class. She knows a lot about a lot of sub jects . . . Then Air. Greene will tell us to open our books to page 65 and to ’sing out* ... I like him . . . Miss Wrenn is one of the best teachers I have ever had. She knows the Civil War from start to finish and every move that was made . . . But she ought to. I understand that her grandfather, uncle or somebody real close was in the Civil War and told her all about it . . . Man, have you had math under Mr. Pratt!? That guy is brilliant. He can put all kinds of figures on the board and divide, subtract, or add them in his head as fast as he can talk . . . Mrs. Brewster is really de manding a lot now, but I like it. . . She certainly knows the subject and how to teach it. She is a good one . . . Come to think of it there aren’t any real crip courses at Owen. All the classes are hard but that’s what you need if you’re going to college . . . You don't hear the kids who really want to do well in school complaining about the teachers. Most of the complaining is by someone who has messed up and who doesn’t want to admit that he is to blame,” and on and on and on. As I started out to say, students have changed . . for the better. —R— OLD FORT STRONG When the Old Fort High School played at the Owen gym here last week, fans saw one of the strong est Class A teams in this section in action. In fact both the boys and girls played the locals on even terms most of the way. The Warhorses and Warlassies were not assured of victory until the final whistle. The strong showing of this fine Class A school is more evidence that we need an open tournament in North Carolina to decide the state championship, in stead of the method now used of awarding trophies in four divisions. The open tournament could be used, as it is in other states, with very little change in present plans. It would not interfere in the least with county toun naments or in the scheduling of games with natural opponents. And a tournament of this kind would improve the brand of basketball played in our high schools within a very short time. Some oppose it on the assumption that the larger schools would always win and that the smaller schools would never have a chance. But this has not proved to be true in other states. Some of the best teams come from what would be classed in North Carolina as A. The Old Fort teams, with many sophomores in the lineup, gave an excellent account of themselves here against Owen which is 3-A. Looks as if the In dians will be strong for several seasons to come. —R— STATE EMPLOYEES The State Employees are greatly upset because someone suggested that money be taken from their re tirement fund and used to build plants to help entice new industry to come into the state. This would take an act of the General Assembly. As of this date I have heard no member of the house or senate make such a proposal. When you start gambling with what amounts to the life savings of thousands of men and women spread over the entire 100 counties of the state, you’re walking on dangerous ground.

WADE HALL, Trust ee Jan. 10, 17, 24, 31, 1963 —A recent survey, sponsor ed by a steel company, esti mated there are 181 million mattresses used in homes in the United States.

Motor Vehicles Department officials say the all important cards were mailed in mid December and should have been received by now. If not, the agency’s registration di vision says, “Please let us know at once.” , Proper procedure is to write the Motor Vehicles De- , partment, Raleigh, with the make and identification num ber of your car, your last , year’s tag number and your ■ full name and address. , As in the past applicants are reminded to indicate on ! the reverse side of their re- i newal card that liability in- i surance is stil! in force, and to iist the county in which the vehicle is subject to pro- i perty taxes. Also the one dollar extra 1 fee for driver education must be paid for each vehicle hav- ■ jng a registration fee of S10.00 or more. Plates may be purchased in Raleigh at the Motor Vehicles Building or ordered through ( the mail. Miss Foy Ingram, director of the department’s registra tion division, said 85 branch offices would begin issuing new tags January 2. “In any event,” Miss In gram said, “it is important to present a properly pre; ar ■d renewal card when buy ing new tags and to write the Motor Vehicles Depart ment promptly if you’ve not ■eceived one.” Sen. Erwin Says: WASHINGTON—One of the impressive ceremonies of ev ery new Congress is the administration of the oath of office to those members qual ifying by election or appoint ment. Twelve new Senators are scheduled to be sworn in for the first time at the open of the 88th Congress. This constitutes one of the largest turnovers I have witnessed since I have been in the Sen ate. More important, how ever, is the fact that the tragic deaths of Senators Kerr and Chavez, both pow erful Committee Chairmen, have struck heavy blows to the Senate’s leaders. Respec tively, they headed the Aero nautical and Space Sciences and the Public Works Com mittee. Their deaths are certain to have a far reach ing effect on the affairs of the Senate. New Senators are: Bayh, Erewster, Dominick, Inouye, Kennedy, McGovern, McIn tyre, Meehem, Nelson, Ribi coff, and Simpson. Senator Kerr’s successor has not been named at the time of this writing. The oath taking ceremony is brief and simple. It is fundamental to the working of the parlimentary govern ment and democracy. It re quires at the inception of of fice holding a dedication to the principles of constitution al government. As Congress opens, I am impressed by the fact that while the Senate is a continu ing parlimentary body, its membership is ever-changing. In addition to the lives of Senator Kerr and Chavez, death struck down Senators Dworshak, Case, Schoeppel, and Bridges during the 87th Congress. There were four retirements from office by Senators Butler, Bush, Long of Hawaii, and Smith of Massachusetts, Five Senators were defeated in their bid for re-election. Senators Bot tum, Carroll, Capehart, Hick ey, and Wiley will vacate their seats. The defeat of Senators Wiley and Capehart reshuf fles the rankings of the min ority members of the Judici ary and the Banking and Cur l e n c y Committees, where they had top rank. Seniority determines committee mem bership rankings and chair manships by Senate custom. All these changes will have an important bearing on the issues for this session which include new and hold over problems. Economic and tax policies, transportation and farm measures, education and medical care proposals, are channeled through the Senate’s seventeen standing committees. The make-up of most committees will be af fected by these deaths, retire ments, and political defeats. I expect no changes to be made in my Committee as signments. Currently, 1 hold membership on the Armed Services, Government Opera tions, and Judiciary Commit tees. I have Chairmanships of Judiciary Subcommittees on Constitutional Rights and Re vision and Codification of the Statutes of the United States. 1 I am also a member of the Advisory Commission on In tergovernmental Relations a long with Senators Muskie ind Mundt. Congress has many ume solved issues to consider at this session. I foresee a long and difficult session ahead. rRY THE CLASSIFIEDS i I ' riassifierts Sell - Ph.
