TUCKER — Ed Weber is always willing to welcome a new member, a perfectly painless operation in the case of Dr. Timothy L. Tucker, D.D.S., Black Mountain’s new dentist. *,. Kiwanis Roundup WHO’S AFRAID OF THE BIG BAD WOLF? — illness, depression with inflation, political accusations, crime, pollution, drugs, short hair, long hair, no hair, speeding cars, false ad vertising, etc. Our country has all of these, but who’s afraid? Certainly not the Kiwanians who attended their club meeting on January 15 and listened to the Bicentennial Essay Theme. January Kiwanis Club Essay winners from Owen High School were Claire O’Connell Skidmore, a junior and Franklin “Chip” Huggins a freshman. They were introduced by Frederic D. Maness, counselor at Owen High School. Claire Skidmore spoke on “What is an American” and Franklin Huggins on “Happy Birthday - America.” They were roundly apptau.' ' presented with awards by president A1 Springer. The origin,.: dea of having competitions in high school or given subject' is that of Kiwanian “Bart” Bartholomew. The purpose being t„ ^et students and Kiwanians involved with each other for mutual benefit and understanding. As indicated by both speakers our country has become a great nation. Kiwanians place their faith in its continuance as such through the attitude and acts of the really true young Americans. The strength of America lies in the youth of to-day. Dl We appl$lid you, Claire and Chip and pledge our support. _ w ” i„ Sjill, i. . Rotary Felloe Continuing to emphasize Swannanoa Valley people and events, Rotarians heard Dr. Craigan Gray, Ob.-Gyn. specialist, who has now opened an office in the Valley Medical Center. Though he talked of the new accomplishments in his specialty, he em phasized the necessity of good relationship between the people and their Doctors in private practice. After several years in Germany and socialized medicine there while in the Army, Dr. Gray stated, “Our system (private practice) is still best, even with all its faults.” Dr. Gray chose our area, “An area where people help each other.” The Medical Center is an evidence of local concern and subsequent action and local money to solve a problem. “We came here because we wanted to - and we want to stay”, he concluded. Last Tuesday, The Rev. Ed Ferrell, Pastor of the First Baptist Church in Black Mountain, used color slides and his delightful commentary to share his last summer’s trip to the Baptist World Congress in Stockholm. Several from the congregation here ac companied the Ferrels to join some ten thousand fellow Baptists from around the world. Besides Stocoholm, “A city built on seventeen islands”, he touted Rotarians through London, Copenhagen, Amsterdam, Cologne, thence down the Rhine where “The most beautiful piece of Baptist Real Estate”, the Seminary at Zurich. And, snowballs were flying at Interlochen. All were reminded of the second edition of the Warren Wilson College vs. Montreat-Anderson College basketball game on February 14, when little love will be lost between the two teams.
