a complete account of the pro-
posed oil drilling.
Bill does not consider his lack
of hearing a handicap, and by
painstaking effort he mast
ers the art of oral speech, re-
suit of which is a soft voice,
easily understandable, yet
strangely enough it carries the
same sea-twangy brogue as that
noticeable in the friendly speech
of the native residents there. Yet
he has never heard the voice of
his neighbors.
The scribe who, although he
has a sense of broad distribu-
ton, noticeably increasing daily,
refers to himself as "the Star
News Representatives, partly as
a diplomatic measure, he adj
mits.
William D. Kizziah, also
known as Bill Kizziah, versatile
and widely known register of
deeds of Rowan county, said to
be slated to succeed Congress-
man Robert L.. Doughton when
Doughton retires, is a second
cousin of the Southport Bill Ke-
ziah, despite the difference in
their last names. It is said that
every time the Southport man
writes his cousin he casually
mentions that MS own branch of
the family was the only n that
had sense enough to know how
to spell the name right.
The story of the origin of the
name Keziah, Kezia, Kizziah,
etc., is interesting in itself. Ac-
cording to Southport's Bill, away
back in the year 1862 the Eng
lish families did not have family
names. One day in that year an
English gentleman was looking
through the Holy Bible, trying
to find a name for his family.
came - the book of Job and
read it through with much care
and reverence.
Sob, as you know" says Bill,
chad much trouble. He
had many boils and three daugh-
tiers, and one Of the daughters
was named Kezia." Bill's own
branch of the Englishman's
The Wilmington morning star., 1947-09-28

family added an "h" to the
name of Jobs daughter and
that's how come the name of Ke-
ziah.
Bill is credited with remark
able ability for meeting and mix
ing with people in all walks of
life. For getting along with ba-
bies he is said to be a whiz,
likes young people generally, is
a good horseback rider and is
especially fond of horses.
Duke University once sent A
girl students to Southport for a
four-day stay on Bald Head is
land. They arrived at Southport
in charge of Dean Baldwin. She
was meeting Bill for the first
time and one look at him ap-
p%arently satisfied the good lady
that he was harmless. She told
him she would stay in South
port and rest. He would have to
take the girls to the island for
the four days and make them
behave. The thought of that out
ing still gives him a headache.
His experience at meeting peo-
pie is rather broad. On one &C.
casion the huge yacht of Com
modore and Mrs. w. K. Wander
bilt is put in at Southport. They
went around with him for a visit
to Orion and other places. The
tour was concluced with an in
vitation to the guide to
come to the ship next day and
have tea with them.
Some three hours were spent
inspecting the vessel and then
the one-time leader Of the s'400"
presided at tea in the brilliant
saloon of the ship. Bill arose to
leave and his hosts accompani-
ed him on deck to the head of
the accommodation ladder.
Shaking hands with the Com
modore the Southporter said,
with all sincerity: "You have
been a wonderful host" Then
turning to Mrs. Vanderbilt, he
politely shook hands with her,
slapped her on the back and re-
marked very cordially: "You
have been a wonderful host"
Then turning to, Mrs. Vanderbilt,
The Wilmington morning star., 1947-09-28

Southport's newspaper, says that
Keziah is indispensable to his
offices, or visa versa. Bill
Sharpe, director of North Caro-
lima State News bureau also
leans heavily on Keziah's store
house of knowledge, as do manv
others.
Eeziah's zest and humor is
legendary even though now he
is only in his early50's.
A descriptive, graphic account
of up-and-coming, note worthy
Southport happenings, a la Ke-
ziah:
"Ground swells kept sport and
commercial fishermen, and us
little guys on the mainland to-
day (Monday) but everyone
looked forward to smooth seas
and better fishing tomorrow"
The report, issued in the midst
of a recent 160-mile screaming
hurricane, four hundred miles
south of here was followed a few
hours later by his clock work re-
ports on the areas participation
in the South eastern North Caro-
lima Beach associations SIS, 900,
45-day Fishing Rodeo.
=. Another timely account of To-
cal happenings with a typical
Keziah lead begins;
Turbulent times prevailed
among official court house cir
cles here today after it appeared
that some one had been playing
Dixie.
That, if it could be termed
such, was the only reference to
a woman prisoner of the county
bastile charged with misdemean-
or who,: tired of her cell mates,
asked and was allowed to be
transported to the county horne
to await trial.
The transferral, according to
Keziah was short lived and only
temporary when the police Off
GERS were told that the statutes
held them liable for the woman's
appearance in the court.
The woman was returned to
her Jail cell, and the news cen
sors deleted the eye = catching
lead to the story.
Undaunted, Keziah keeps
plugging, however, and invari-
ably scoops his own news
scources at least twice a week.
Recently an out Of town news
paper got a tip that Brunswick
county, of which Southport is the
capitol will soon be the scene of
oil drilling operations. Keziah
had the scoop-had had it for
DAYS - but he quipped back by
wire:
"What the - kind of a-news-
paperman do you think I am.
Our paper won't be out, stop,
before tomorrow morning..
This was following however by
The Wilmington morning star., 1947-09-28

The spectacular yet unembel-
lished daily press releases of
Bill Keziah are widely read here
and throughout this and other
states. Their easy-to-read style,
and the simple language
il speaks has placed them out
front with news and newsfea-
ffIre readers and contemporary
writers.
Bill was not only apparently
doomed to a life of inactivity
at the age of five, but the doc
tors. he says told his parents he
would not even live; when I
lived, they said I would never
walk: when l walked they said
would never amount to any,
thing, so l gave up trying to
fool them any longer" he says.
The writer's reticence about his
personal life is shown in a brief
note he once mailed the editor
Of a newspaper who inquired for
information about Keziah, for a
story. background" is the way
the editor described the stuff he
sought.
Keziah replied:
II amt got no background -
I sit in a chair at my typewriter
when I'm not standing on my
feet.
Cornered on the subject he adj
mitted:
81 honestly amt got no back
ground except that I was born
on a farm, and just as soon as
my father found out that I didn't
have sense enough to make a
good farmer he let me come to
the eastern part of the state to
try my hand at running a news
paper. I ran fright into the
ground and that may be said to
be my only background
But Jimmy Harper, editor of

he politely shook hands with her,
slapped her on the back and re
marked very cordially: "You

Mrs. Vanderbilt is credited
with saying, between her laugh
ter, that it was the first time in
years anybody treated her like

Grants Reprieve
To Lippy And LARAMIE
Pending Legal Ruling, Miss
Day And Durocher Live
Separately
BY ALINE MOsBY

LOS ANGELES. Jan. % - W.H
- The ~three-day marriage of film
beauty Laraine Day and Brooklyn
baseball manager Leo Gippy)
Durocher survived its first acourt
appearance Thursday.
Superior Judge George A. Dock
weller, who ordered the actress to
show some reason why he should
not revoke her California divorce,
granted her a reprieve when at
torneys questioned his right to
act.
The Judge accused Miss Day of
/ aunting the authority of his
court by obtaining a Mexican
divorce the day after he gave her
a degree, and then marrying
Durocher in Ell Paso, Tex. The
California divorce will not become
final for a year.
Deputy County Counsel William
E. Lamoureaux brought the show
cause order into court but Judge
Dockweiler delayed acting on. it
when attorneys for Miss Day
pleaded for more time.
Former Judge Isaac Pacht and
N. Joseph Ross questioned the
right of Judge Dockweiler to start
proceedings toward setting aside
the decree and declared if any
such action e started it would
have to be done by the state.
An impartial attorney. Werner
o. Graf, sat in on the judicial con-
ference as an objective bystander.
He told Judge Dockweiler that he
questioned the right of the jurist
to sit as Judge, jury and proce-
cutor in such an action"
Judge DockWeiler then announc-
ed he would take no further action
until Tuesday, when he hoped to

ut is not my desire to take adj
vantage of Miss Day." the Judge
said. II will continue the case IN
order that the law will not be
violated in any way, shape Or
form"
The show case order was based
on alleged COLLISION, fraud and bad
faith on the part of Miss Day. But
Attorney Pacht pointed out there
was no indication of collision on
the part of Ray Hendricks, Airport
manager whom Miss Day divorced
Monday.
Miss Day pleaded with the judge
that she had been unhappy in her
previous marriage and was seek
ing happiness when she married

promises to be the outstanding
classic on tap tonight. Coach Leon
MINIS qulnt, lead by
high scoring Billy Mason, who
1876 points per game, and
Johnny McKoy, a 1877 man, will
be slightly favored despite the fact
that Rocky Mount has the best de-
fensive team in the Eastern Com
ference. The Birds have limited
their opponnets to less than 80
points in every game this season-
However, Wilmington has tailed
at least 43 markers on every quint
they have met. Therefore, it will
be a case of offense VS.. Defense,
and offense is picked to win.
In looking over records of the
1916 Cats fans will find that Will
mington defeated Rocky Mount by
a larger margin out of town than
at the local gym. If this is the
tonight, then local sports ems
thusiasts need not worry, because,
as a rule, Wilmington is rs points
better on the New Hanover High
floor than on any other court.
The probable starting lineup for
Rocky Mount tonight will be- Dom
ME FELTON, and Pete Booth at for
wards, AL McCotter at center, and
Jack Allsbrook and Gilbert Nc
Cullen at guards. Of this five
Pete Booth and Jack Allsbrook did
not play last year. Booth was in
eligible and Allsbrook was in the
service. 1t is the addition of these
two 1915 cage stars that is putting
the spark in Rocky Mounts fine
1947 cage quint, which has lost
only to Durham and Fayetteville.
Wilmington's lineup will consist
of four boys, who helped throttle

but he is set to show Rocky Mount
fans how he has piled UP 1862 points
