eASSfee TOLD YOU SO!—“If we don’t do it, the U. S. Supreme Court will”. This was the song of legislators who push ed hardest for “upset-the fruit-basket”—known also as redistricting—for the State Senate. Federal judges looked hard at lack of redistricting in Oklahoma last week and rul ed both House and Senate out there must be reshuffled. Now certain senators are say ing to the foot-draggers: "We told you so—and it can also happen to North Carolina.” It happened in Tennessee. So, those favoring redis tricting have found new sup port from Oklahoma. This new decision will do more than anything else to assure a short, sweet (?) special ses sion in September—and re districting. Wanta bet? AND NO GIRLS—In the past three weeks we have seen three wonderful movies here in Raleigh. They were ‘‘Law rence of Arabia", ‘‘The Great Escape”, and “PT 109”. —And not one female in the three! LITTLE MEN—Incident ally, the two men most men tioned as candidates for Lieu tenant Governor on the Demo cratic ticket next spring— Clifton Blue of Aberdeen and John Jordan of Raleigh—will not, standing together on the scales at the same time, move the indicator more than two or three notches if that far, past the 300-pound marker. But the late Cloyd Phil pott was probably the small est man ever elected to high office in this state. Be that as it may, however, the two men he chopped down—C. V. Henkel of Statesville and David McConnell of Charlotte would together weigh upwards of 000 pounds. Governor Sanford is down in Florida, eating high on the hog with other Governors; will come back to Raleigh looking round-faced again. HOW! PRE-SET PERFECT PICTURES on every channel!

CRISP RADIO & TV SHOP • Expert Repairing • —Cragmont Road Phone NO 9-8401 Kula Greenwood ODDITY—Dr. Ralph Mc Donald visited here last week. He ran for Governor, un successfully, in 1936 and in 1944. No’ man living: in North Carolina today is more despised by the conservatives than was Dr. Ralph McDonald in 1936. He shook solid old North Carolina to its very founda tions. FDR liberals like the late Josephus Daniels and Santford Martin were his supporters. But, alas the Gardner machine cut him down in his prime with what is referred to now some times as the “long count”. This marked the beginning of the end off the absentee bal lot in the Primary. Now another strong sup porter of Dr. Ralph McDon ald a generation ago was A. J. Fletcher, television tycoon. Fletcher likes the Ph.D’s, no doubt, for he is now as strong for Dr. I. Beverly lake as he was for the liberal Dr. Mc Donald in 1936. The interesting point is 25 years ago the word "Ne gro” and “integration” were never, never associated with Ultra Liberal Dr. Ralph Mc Donald or with Franklin D. Roosevelt. When Dr. McDon ald came to Raleigh last week, he visited his old friend, A. J. Fletcher, and was inter viewed on his television sta tion. The term “liberal” a gen eration ago was associated almost exclusively with econ omics—a better distribution of the dollar. Now it is as sociated almost exclusively vljfch Integration. And it makes little difference what you believe nowadays about economics, you are a liberal no longer unless you believe in racial equality to the ex treme. A. J. Fletcher was called a liberal until the racial matter came along. Dr. I. Beverly Lake was so classed as a teacher at Wake Forest Col lege. They are both classed now as arch conservatives. Times Change! We are persuaded that, to be a true Liberal, you must ever be the mental pioneer, ever seeking the New Front ier. NOTES—There was some disappointment among Lake supporters at the Henderson crowd out to hear him give his foretaste of his Civil Rights talk in Washington. Only about 100 showed up, it says here—. A large radio station in Raleigh may soon be purchased by the Belk family—which seems to be acquiring some stations—if the price is right—in the Carolinas. Lewis Lawrence, former public relations man with the State Ports Authority, has started a new paper for Gar ner, Raleigh suburb, and is said to be getting one for Cary, another Raleigh sub urb, underway—in an area which has a half-dozen radio stations and two daily papers. Well, like it or not—fall is just around the corner— with the first football games less than 60 days away. Glad to see Harry Westcott reap pointed head of Utilities Commission—which reminds us that former Chairman August 8, 1963 Personals: Miss Isabelle Wicker from Richmond that the ages are off her eyes, and she can see well enough to find her way through the house without having to be led around like a baby. The Howard Willets spent last week autoing to Virginia. If you want to know’ the dif ference between the eyes of harmless snakes, and venom ous ones, ask Pansy. She believes in checking. Clarence Pegg entertained some of his old friends and new neighbors at an outdoor supper, Friday night. The Haney family, which recently lost their home by fire, have rented a house in Swannanoa. Mrs. Nell Wiseman ana (laughter, Martha, spent the weekend at “Kinard’s Turn out”. David and Van Burnette have been visiting Mr. and Mrs. Thad Burnette, their grandparents. Some of their city friends arrived on Sun day, and the boys decided to take a mountain hike, replete with packs and heavy sticks. Halfway up the mountain it was necessary to dispose of a rattler which got in their way. Upon turning around they saw a second rattler. Waiting for nothing they jumped off a cliff directly in a yellowjacket’s nest. Packs and staffs flew in all direc tions, but the yellowjackets struck as the boys headed for grandfather’s help. Monday, August 12, is meeting night for the North Fork Community Club. As usual the meeting will begin at 7:30 at the Asheville Club House at the reservoir. Mountain View Church: The men’s Brotherhood Group took the R. A. Boys on an overnight camping trip to the South Toe River last week. Everyone reported a fine time and a worthwhile ex perience. Those enjoying the outing were: Reverend Robert Clayton, Harry Morris, Frank Shook, Fred Strickland. Mike and Ronnie Vanover, Wayne Williams, Robert Clayton, Jr., Mike and Jeff Morris, the Shook boys, Floyd Burnette, Mike Marler, and Buster and Chester Williams. This is the week the men gather to cut the grass in the cemtery, and trim the rough places. Since the week of August 11 is Home Missions Week, the Reverend Fair of Black Mountain has arranged for special speakers to be present at the Wednesday evening meeting, and the following Sunday’s meeting. Auguit 15, 1963 Willett’ Trip: As reported by Pansy, the family visited the Parkway Craft Center at Moses H. Cone Memorial Park which has demonstrations of weaving, rug making, and other crafts. There is also a Pioneer Mus eum that is very interesting. They camped two nights at Doughton Park. At the camp, fire the first night there was a most interesting talk by the naturalist on reptiles. The second night at the Lodge, there was an illustrated talk about things to see and do in the parkway. One day they drove into Virginia as far as Galax, re turning to Cumberland Knob for a picnic lunch. At Flat Rock they enjoyed the self guiding nature trail where they surprised a weasel. Other animals they saw were groundhogs, deer and a snake. Katherine Grant climbed to the roof of her home last week to fix a wire on the TV an tennae. But the roof was too slippery, and she plunged to the ground, skinning her shins and landing on her right shoulder. The numbness in her right arm has left her now, and she is able to walk on her lacerated limbs. Mrs. Hiller stepped off her brick patio on Sunday, sprain Stanley Winborne is in very, very bad health here. mnmnnf * m a k k irx a a rr * * >vvTnnnn»'fl BBeeooeinr ro o o o OOOOO 00000000000000000000 0 00000000000 CO n U r ‘ SEMI-ANNUAL CLEARANCE D SUBSTANTIAL REDUCTIONS On Famous Brand MEN'S SUMMER SUITS SPORT COATS SHIRTS (Sport and Dress) STRAW HATS FURNISHINGS CROSBY SQUARE SHOES (Loafers and Ties) BlddtttgfieU -Konrad Quality Clothing Broadway and State Street* Black Mountain Open Friday 'Till 8:30 Member First Union Charge Plan 00>ffoonOOOOOBOflflOBBflBBBBBBOflOflOflBflBflBflBflflBBfiflBBBBB VJLfiJLBJLflJLBJLBJLBJLBJtJtfl BJt BJLBJLBJiJttLtLBjUJLaJLgJUUt jULBJLBJLflJLfiJLflJLlULILOJLajt-g.g.
