II Peter 2:2. New Highway Commission A new highway commission was sworn into office Tuesday. It includes a chairman, ex-Legisla- lor Joe Hunt of Greensboro, and 14 members, pared from 18 members by the recent General Assembly on request of Governor Dan Moore. The commission thus reverts in number to the era of Governor W. B. Umstead and several predecessors, Governor Luther Hodges having obtained paring of the commis sion to seven members, including the chairman, in his plan to have a com mission with a “statewide” concept. It is not unusual for the highway commission to be whipping boy to gub ernatorial challengers. As political ap pointees, it is natural for commission members to endorse the favorite of the governor who honored them. If the chal lenger wins, the commission faces are changed, as, sometimes, is the numerical membership. But highway commissions naturally find the same continuing problem — in sufficient funds to provide all the need ed primary roads and insufficient funds to pave every road by everyone’s church and residence. Governor Hodges’ wise "statewide” ( concept was continued by Governor l^erry Sanford and undoubtedly will be Continued by Governor Moore. Gover nor Hodges’ too rigid (politically) strict point system on secondary roads was modified on Governor Sanford’s urging who wanted division commissioners to call the signals, in which there was some merit. Individual citizens, however, now are particularly interested in the ap pointees to the new commission. In the 12th division, which includes Kings Mountain, W. B. (Barney) Garri son, Gastonia bottling company execu tive, and veteran county commissioner of both Gaston and Mecklenburg, is the new commissioner. He professes to know' little about roads, though his experience as a county commissioner will stand him in good stead. Meantime, his business experience will make him knowledge able in judging the performance of the professionals who do the detailed plan ning and make the road-building recom- ii-<endations. Another member is Commissioner W. Curtis Russ, of the 14th division, a onct.me Kings Mountain newspaperman, partner in the Kings Mountain News, I circum 1927-29. Mr. Russ edits and pub- Hishes the Waynesville Mountaineer and is one of the state’s more erudite, able and respected newsmen. First most important chore of the new commission is working for passage of the November 2 road-building bond issue. Its passage will .spell the differ ence between great and modest success for the Moore commission. Roy Sisk. Our Loss While his many friends in Kings Mountain and neighboring communities are congratulating Ray Sisk on his pro motion to be an assistant director of South Carolina State Parks, they are ex pressing regret at the necessity of his residing in Columbia. Mr. Sisk, as a 12-year manager of the Kings Mountain State Park, a popu lar recreation spa for Kings Mountain citizens, has endeared himself to all who have availed themselves of his friendly and cooperative kindnesses in arranging reservations for civic and church groups and assuring that the facilities are in tip-top order. R A graduate of the North Carolina fetate Parks system, Mr. Sisk is grad uating again. Best wishes to him in his new and more responsible assignment. Judge B. T. Falls. Jr. Bayard T. Falls, Sr., has long been addressed as “Judge”, reminiscf>nt of service many years ago as judge of county recorder’s couiT. Now his son, newly-appointed resi dent Superior Court judge of the 27th judicial district, Bayard T. Falls, Jr., qualifies to the same title. By act of the General Assembly the Gaston-Cleveland-Lincoln judicial dis trict now qualifies for two resident judges, the other being Judge P. C. Froneberger, of Gastonia. Judge Falls goes to the bench with a long background of legal, legislative, and court experience. He was a six-term member of the House of Representatives, and has served since as district solicitor. Perhaps most important, his service as solicitor has been marked by a proper balance between his duty to prosecute violators of the law and a tempering knowledge of the fact it is human to err. This is in contrast to some solicitors, a MARTIN'S MEDICINE Ingredients: bits of news wisdom, humor, and comments Directions: Take weekly, ii possible, but avoid overdosage. By MARTIN HARMON The Herald made an effort to ■update its picture files of Kings Mountain area citizens last Fri day and with some success, some half-hundred dropping by for nbw model shots. Arrangements had been made with Doe Cap Studios, hoi.xe of fice in Charlotte, to provide this service—first time the Herald had attempted it in 20 years, at least. The gentleman doing the lens work appeared adept at his work and is an interestin; personal ity. At 37, Dan Beckli i.m, native of Lancaster, S. C., has done var ious and sundry chores. In the navy for three years, he n'-ver went to sea, was aboard ship on ly once to photograph damages to a corvette. He also spent sev eral years in New Jersey, where he owned a night club-duty he does not recommend due to es pecially long hours. Additional ly, he lived 40 miles from his place of bu.siness and commut ing was tedious, nerve-wracking and time-consuming. I am envious of able photogra phers, amateur or professional, for, in what little effort I’ve matie in that direction, -the re sults have customarily been blurred or, at best, off-angle.

I The Total Grows Half-year dividend payments of Kings Mountain’s two savings and loan associations continue to escalate, total ing on June 30 over $21.5,000 — a size able cash melon shared in by a gre'tt number of Kings Mountain area citizens. It means that these citizens are con tinuing to put away a portion of their earnings for various and sundry pur poses. Some save for a new car, some save to build a home, others to assure their sons and daughters post-high school education. Others invest safely for income at the quite favorable cur rent dividend rate of 4.25 percent per year. These savings are doubly beneficial to Kings Mountain for they provide loan monies that enable other citizens to buy cars, construct homes and business buildings. Those who adopt the savings habit Cases in wh'.-li go to tlic j'd cf a m-m 1 Cun . doc■ p.jlii'C ofiicci are so rate in these times that they icceive quite a bit of atten tion.

'65 Legion Baseball The progress of American Legion baseball in 1965 through Tuesday finds Kings Mountain one game down to Shel by, best three-of-five series, in the North Carolina Area IV semi-finals. Most happily, the Otis D. Green Post 155 team eliminated old nemisis Hickory, a particular plaguer in the past year both in high school and Legion play, to gain the semi-final.s. Tuesday night’s loss to old rival Shelby was both typical of the Shelby- Kings Mountain rivalry and of Legion baseball itself. Anything can happen, and did, as Shelby took a four-run lead, found it pared by two in the next King.s Mountain round, then held on for dear life as Kings Mountain scored another, then loaded the bases in the final stan za. It was Shelby 5, Kings Mountain 4. Wednesday night’s action was in Shelby, and the teams return here for the third game Thursday night. Good show. nbed mine is for my obituary. ”No.” I replied. "Let's accentu ate the positive along the lines of successes and honors.” m-ra Dr. O. P. Lewis jested, "If the FBI gets afler me. I’ll know- why.” And Dr. Bob Baker de clared, ”I couldn't turn down your invitation, for tlie ham in me always comes out.” The Independence Day holiday sea son is now history, but it doesn’t mean there should be a surcease to careful driving attention. The traffic toll set a record. With more and more cars on the road, the number, if not percentage of chance-takers increases. Some folk are quilb camera shy, and William Plonk is amon,2 them. He came by on some oth er business and I said, "William, don’t look now. but this is the best time in the world to get your beauty struck.” Not on your life, says William, who says he doesn’t recall having but Iwo portraits made in his life, the first when he xvas graduat ing from Lenoir college, the sec ond about 20 years ago by a friend in Spartanburg. "That one 'flattered mo and I decided to stop with it,” he retreated. m-m Grady Howard suggested lib'd sit before the camera on condi tion his current file picture be consi.gned to the ash heap.
