Beginning Fel;uary 2 the State's educational television network will air "Meet the Art a," a series of 30-minute in struction programs designed to introduce children to the arts as a source of enjoyment and discovery. Produced by Boston Program Developer and Studio Teacher Sonya Hamilin, the series features several art forms combined in each lesson, with a .basic idea to each explored. According to Mrs. Reta Richardson, chief television consultant with the State Education Agency, the aim is to teach children that artistic concepts such as shape, rhythm, form, and content are basic to all art forms. They will also learn how to relate to these forms, said Mrs. Richardson. The program will be shown Tuesday, beginning February 2, at 1:45 p.m. Repeats will be Thursday at 1:30 p.m. and Fridays at 9 a.m. The program will be telecast over WUNC Chapel Hill-4; WUND-Columbia-i; WUNF-Asheville-22; WUNE-Unville-17; and WUNG-Concord-58. of at- Itnan the usual amount tention this year. It's another development that can be tied directly to the effects of blight and drought on the 1970 corn crop. Total grain supplies are below normal, pusning prices to unusual seasonal highs The small grain crops now, in the field are being counted upon to serve as a relief valve to take the oressure off Brain supplies, ease livestock and poultry feed costs and provide some in surance in the event of another bad corn year in 1971 Farmers will be watching tne era n croDS careiuny me remainder of the winter, commented North Carolina University extension specialist Dr. John Clapp. "They are Scholarships Available Pxot 6 - Th Perquimans Countv Weekly, Hertford, N. C, Thursday, January 28, 1971 Television Art Miirh RiHincr fln Winer Hanptf IIIHVII IIIWIII VII Wflllljj liwiaww anxious to see how they come through the freezing weather. We normally have some crop loss due to the freezing and thawing of the soil, which heaves plants out of the ground. There's not much farmers can do about this - just hope the loss is light. Normally, it is."- But one thing farmers can do to help assure a good small grain harvest is to fertilize, Dr. Clapp said. "The next few weeks of January and February are the ideal time to put nitrogen top- dressing on small grain," he suggested. Topdressing is almost essential to profitable yields of wheat, oats, barley and rye. And early application maximizes chances for top production. Clapp cited figures which indicated grain topdressed in late January and before the end of February produced 35 to 40 per cent larger yields than that fertililzed in April. "Early application is doubly important as the incidence of rust disease on wheat in creases, tne agronomist pointed out. He explained that rust is becoming a problem in some areas on Blueboy wheat, a non-resistant variety. Fertilizing the wheat early so it will mature rapidly helps prevent severe rust damage. "Where maturity is delayed, rust has more time to build up," Clapp said. The extension specialist, in commenting further on fer tilization, said potash, as well as nitrogen, may be needed on some small grain fields. This plant nutrient deficiency usually occurs where farmers plant small grain behind a fall harvested crop without adding additional fertilizer. "If the first crop was well fertilized, this practice is fine," Clapp said. 'But if the row crop cudnt receive u high level of potassium, chances are there isn't enough for the small grain." He suggested applying a fertilizer containing potassium and nitrogen. Another precaution Eastern North Carolina farmers might take involves visual inspection of the crop for signs of copper deficiency. "We're seeing more and more of this problem in the Coastal Plain area," Clapp said. "If diagnosed early enough, foliar applications of copper can be made to limit losses." Symptoms of copper deficiency include a stunted appearance, leaves twisted or rolled with the tips beginning to die. HomemakersClub Meets Mrs. Rob Tuner was hostess to the Snow Hill-White Extension Homemakers Club in January. Mrs. Ralph Harrell, vice presidentpresided. "This is my Father's World" was sung. Miss Ann Benton accompanied at the piano. Mrs. Rob Turner gave an Inspiring devotional and read from Proverbs. The club women were led in prayer by Mrs. J. Elmer Wood Sr. Mrs. Paige Underwood gave the demonstration on "Window Treatment." Mrs. Delwin Eure read the minutes and called the roll. Sixteen members were present. Three new members, Mrs. Robert Sutton. Mrs. Ernest Sutton and Mrs. Marion Harrell, were present also. Mrs. Bobby Eure received the door prize. The February meeting will be a Family Supper meeting.

Four 1971 North Carolina high school graduates planning to teach occupational education will be awarded $200 Clyde A. Erwin Scholarships late this spring. The Clyde A. Erwin Scholarship program is ad ministered by the Division of Staff Development, State Department of Public In struction. J. Earle Harper, Secretary of the Erwin Scholarship Com mittee, said that procedures for nominating candidates and application forms have been sent to all North Carolina high school principals. Applications must be made no later than April 1. The $200 scholarships are made available through private donations established in the memory of Dr. Clyde A. Erwin, State Superintendent of Public Instruction from 1934 until his death in 1952. The scholarship program was established in 1954. Recipients are chosen by the lyde A. Erwin Scholarship Committee of the Division of Staff Development. They are selected on the basis of scholastic records in high school, recommendations of school officials, and educational promise. Sixty-seven high school seniors have received the honor to date. Last year's recipients were Miss Sharon Irene Henderson of Charlotte, Johnny Mack Johnson if Sparta, David Glenn Farlow of Sophia, and Miss Sybil Cassandra Baldwin of Pittsboro.

SENATOR SAM ERYIIJ SAYS - WASHINGTON - Our nation has sustained an irreparable loss in the passing of Senator Richard Brevard Russell, of Georgia, who rendered invaluable service as a Member of the State Legislature of Georgia, as Speaker of the Georgia House of Representatives, as Governor of Georgia, and as a Member of the United States Senate. Senator Russell had the highest qualifications for public service. He was highly in telligent, tirelessly industrious, unsurpassed in intellectual in tegrity, and possessed, of the highest possible degree that rare quality - moral and political courage. On Capitol Hill, Senator Russell won the respect of his colleagues as few men ever have in a remarkable way by devotion to duty and con stitutional principles. An authority on national defense, the Senate, and the Constitution, he won a rank without peer through legislative ability, wise counsel, and understanding of people. In later years, these attributes were recognized by Presidents, who sought his Judgments on national issues. A peaceful man, he never flinched when the military strength of this nation was at stake. A conservationist, he was a leading advocate of farm and con servation legislation. A traditionalist in the best sense of that abused term, he was in the forefront of many battles against the unwise concentration of power in the Federal Government. Senator Russell made little of his honors, but they came his way. Two years ago, he was elevated to the post of President Pro Tempore, the highest office which the Senate can bestow upon the senior member of the majority party. That year, too, he was named Chairman of the powerful Senate Appropriations Committee. Historians will miss the mark if they define Senator Russell's contributions to the nation in the usual terms of public service, for these leave unrecorded his great love of country, and his devotion to principles that have stood the test of the ages. I have often stated publicly that Senator Russell was better qualified by intelligence, ex perience, and dedication to fundamental principles for the ECU In Cooperative Program For Eastern N.C. Biology Teachers Card Of Thanks office of President of the United States than any other man of his generation. Many believe that he was denied this high office because he was Southern by birth and residence, and because he was never willing to sell constitutional truth for the needs of the oolitical hour. Death came quietly to this beloved colleague when months of medical care failed to restore him to health. Those who were orivilefled to call him friend will always treasure the memory of his genial companionship ana nis gallant spirit.
