TIMARU, South Island, New
Zealand, Jan. 3 R .-Rescuers
picki-g their way over treacherous
icy ridges of the Mount Cook
range in New Zealand's southern
Alps Friday brought the last of IL
survivors Of an Inflated collegiate
mountain climbing expedition to a
temporary haven in the Hopkins
river valley after two days and two
nights of entrapment by a snow
slide.
Latest word by portable radio to
this base camp was that all IL,
including four girls, were suffer
ing from severe shock and bruises.
Three were described as "stretch-
err" and five as walking" cases.
Two Killed
Two were killed and six injured
on Wednesday in a sudden dis.
of snow that swept them
down the slopes Of precipitous
Mueller glacier. The others suffer
ed from exposure and shock since
then.
This afternoon the lead truck
which travelled over the 16-mile
road to the valley shelter was with
in 500 yards of its goal. Bulldozers
working in a steady rain cleared
the road for the motor vehicles and
the stretcher cases had been low
cred down a 200-foot cliff by ropes
to the temporary camp.
The injured will be taken by
truck to Glen Lyon, a remote sheep
station, and then by ambulance to
Timaru. They expected to reach
the sheep station early Saturday.

city sewerage and water system.
Plans for this program began in
1914.
Indicating a trend, the firs$
crate of Strawberries Were flown
out of Columbus county during
1916, suggesting that within the
near future air transportation
may provide a great boon to the
now half-century-old strawberry
industry.
1t is believed that one Of the
most notable indications of bust
ness expansion is the first class
post office rating which was
given to the Whiteville post of.
flee in 1916. First class rating re-
quires in excess of $40, 900 postal
sales during the year. A survey
of eastern North Carolina towns
has disclosed no other town in
Whiteville's population range with
a first class post office. A. E.
Powell, local post master, said that
this rating has also been achiev'
ed for 1947.
The New Year has begun with

leaders determined that it will be
one of the best years in the his
tory of this Eastern Carolina

7 WHITEVILLE, Jan. 3.-Despite
difficulties attending expansion pro-
grams during 1916, the spirit of
progress was in the air in this in
dustrious Eastern Carolina town of
approximately 1000 population.
Omitting entirely sizeable resi-
Dental and commercial building
operations, a review of the year
discloses at least II major for
ward strides in the community's
business and civic life. They are:
the establishment of the First
National Bank, giving to White
vile two outstanding banking in
stitutions; the opening of a ESQ
watt radio station; the Inaugural
ton of city bus service; the be-
ginning of a country club; Sc
curing of grounds and funds for
the building of a memorial athle-
tic stadium; expanded local Ii
bray facilities; "a first class
rating for the post office; accumu-
lation of a large percentage of
the funds necessary for the cree
ton of a community club house
by the Woman's club and Junior
Woman's club; the beginning of
a movement which is expected to
result early in 1947 on a city
manager form of government; a
veneer mill; and a tobacco priz-
cry.
These are among the more out
standing advances made during
the year and and do not include
many forms of progress of less
magnitude. Concerted community
progress has been the keynote here
since the organization in 1914 OF
the Whiteville Planning committee
with it's emphasis upon planned
growth. The committee is now
set up to work in close harmony
with the Whiteville Merchants
association and all Whiteville civic
clubs.
In additional to the actual
achievements of the year, the
town commissioners proceeded
with a public works project which

DOG NOTES
THIS DOG REPAID A DEBT
By PETER BOGGS

Red is a mongrel dog who
hangs out near a pool room in
Flint, Michigan. The proprietor
has a kindly feeling for the home
less dog, supplies him with food
and at times a place to sleep. No
body thought of taking out a Ii
cense for the dog, and one day
he was picked up and taken to
the local pound.
At noon on Reds final day of
grace, three boys appeared at the
pound. One had in his hand a
piece of paper on which were
scrubbed names and amounts. The
total number of names was %
and the total amount just enough
to pay for Reds license and
pound charges.
This past summer Red more
than repaid his be~nefactors. One
of the boys while swimming in
a pond was attacked by sharp
cramps. Red who was nearby
jumped in and assisted him to
shore.
Red need not worry about
where the money will come from
next year to buy his license tag.
Already duly deposited in a local
bank in trust for the dog is
enough money for license tags
for as long as Red might live.
This fund was collected in small
amounts from all the boys who
play pool where Red still hangs
out.
