There May Be a
New Colony Of
Homes Adjacent
TO Glen I.ennox

Visitors driving around in
Glen Lennox, out on the Raleigh
highway q mile from town, who
have known that a tract of land
just beyond the far (north) end
Of the colony belongs to William
Muirhead, owner of Glen Len
nox, have wondered if he in
tends to develop it as a second
home colony.
Mr.. Muirhead, when ques-
toned on the subject yesterday,
said that, though there was not
yet any definite plan for it, such
q project is a probability.
Il don't know when well get
to il" he said, 'but before very
long Chapel Hill is certainly
going to need new homes of a
type different from the apart
ments in Glen Lennox. I mean
houses such as are wanted by
University professors with
families. This tract, containing
so acres, is well situated for de-
velopment of that character"
!. With 65 families already
settled in Glen Lennox, apart
ments for about 20 more will be
ready for occupancy early next
week. Two are one-bedroom and
two are three-bedroom apart
ments, and the other 16 have
two bedrooms. There are enough
applications already filed to as
sure the rental Of all 20, but tVo
will be held in reserve for spring
quarter newcomers.

The whole development, with
314 apartments, viii be complet-
ed by the end 6f May.
AS soon as spring is a little
further advanced, maybe In a
couple of weeks, the surfacing
Of the streets will begin. The
sub-course of Crushed stone,
laid on hard-packed clay, has
been settling through the winter
and is now in good condition to
receive the top coating of as
phalt.
The grading that remains to
be done, of the park and play
ground areas scattered through
the colony, will proceed rapidly
along with the street-surfacing.
Even before that, the planting
Of grass, in the front yards, and
along the sidewalks, will begin.
The planting of shrubs will
await the right season for that

High School Eleven Topples Celina
1890; To Play At St. Marys Friday

Following wild 40 to 30 victory
over Celina last Friday night,
Bluffton High gridders will attempt
to gain an edge in Western Buckeye
league play for the season when
they travel to st. Marys for night
contest with the Roughriders Friday
of this week.

Marys crew will likely prove to be

way toward determining which of
the two teams will end with mar
gin in the win column SO far as
league standings are concerned.
Although st. Marys lost to Celina,
which Bluffton bested last Friday
40 to 80, the odds do not greatly
favor the Pirates, who were forced
to come up with some of the sea-
sons most spectacular plays in
downing the Bulldogs in the game
played here.
In the Friday night scoring pa
rade neither team showed much in
the way of an adequate defense but
both charged up and down the field
all night long in one of the most
thrilling exhibitions witnessed here
in a long time.
Celina exploded for touchdown
early in the first quarter, which
gave the visitors temporary lead,
soon erased when the Pirates march

their own, and then annexed the

Bluffton heightened the lead with

Our Eastern flying squirrel is one of
the most marvellous of animals.
Its flying powers enable it to 60
through forest even faster than an or
dinary ground squirrel.
It pushes itself off with powerful hind
legs, from high on the trunk of one tree
to lower down on the trunk of another.
Just before it lands it pulls it's head back
and gives a flip with its broad tail, and
lands as gently as can be.
In this manner it can 60 through
miles OF forest, never once touching the
ground. The tail acts as both rudder and
parachute, in sense.
It seldom leaps straight across from
trunk to trunk. since that would not en-
able 1t to get the greatest good from it's
wings"
Usually the flying squirrel is noe
turnal, but will "hy'' in daytime if it has
to. Some years ago we carried the story
here of a local suburban dweller who
caught family of flyers in his attic
and took them mile away in his car.
When he got back, the flying squirrels
were there already!
Usually they nest in large bird-like
nests in trees, similar to the large nests
made by more ordinary gray squirrels.
Flying squirrels are easily tanned and
make interesting pets. but are likely to
sleep all day, rolled into a ball. with the
tail spread over the body. With night.

They Will Be Held to Account

The shocking reports of atrocities committed
by North Koreans against captured American
soldiers call for thorough investigation and stern
action. That General Macarthur will move
swiftly to check the reports and determine where
the guilt lies can be taken for granted. Only
week ago he issued warning that he would
"hold responsible any individual acting for North
Korea who deviates from the principles of
treatment of war prisoners" The principles
referred to are those adopted at Geneva on
December 8, 1949, governing humane treatment
of prisoners of war Soviet Russia signed the
agreement
Despite General MacArthurs solemn warn
ing, reliable news reports tell of the massacre
of seven American soldiers who had surrendered
to North Korean tank unit. The bodies of
the men were found shortly afterward by their
commander. He was quoted as saying their
hands had been tied behind them and each
had been shot through the face.
It is hard for civilized person to under
stand such brutality, especially in view of the
grim penalties meted out after World War II as
a warning to future war criminals. If the dis
patches from Korea are confirmed, it is evident
that o new series Of war trials Is in the making.

sociology, she is an intensely practical person.
She strives to realize her ideals in pragmatic
terms. Through the National Council of Negro
Women, which she founded and in Bethune-
Cookman College at Daytona Beach, which she
established, she has accomplished a parallel
achievement to that of Booker T. Washington.
Her purposes have been altogether altruistic, her
methods entirely logical In education she has
endeavored to change the hearts of people by
instruction of their minds; in advocacy of Negro
progress she has insisted always on the elemental
merits of individuals deserving of success.
Naturally Mrs Bethune is an optimist. She
was born daughter of former slaves, and she has
lived to see with her own eyes such advancement
OF the whole human family as hardly could have
been dreamed IS years ago. Even the most diff
cult problems, she believes, can be solved under
the magic touch of goodwill The children of the
children of today, in her expectation, will work
them out.

Dear Sir:
II, with several neighbors, will appre-
ciate it if you will identify and describe
the habits of an adorable little stranger
who has taken up residence in our back
yard.
Although there is scarcely a moment
throughout the day when there are not
some species of birds present at our feed
ing station, my wife and I had COM
mented several times on the fact that an
attractive bird house nailed to the trunk
of an oak, about 20 feet above the
ground, was being carefully ignored by
all the birds.
Last evening we decided that prob
ably the tenants Of the year before had
so cluttered the entrance that the house
could not be entered.
while I held the ladder, my wife
climbed up with hammer to knock the
nest loose.
''At the first blow fuzzy little crea-
ture shot out of the bird house, an inch
from my wife's face, and made long
leap to the trunk Of another tree.

tree from where it landed, then stopped.

binoculars. 1t was about 5 inches in
length, from tip of rather stubby nose
to the tip of a short-wide tail. It's back
was tan-brown shade, fading away into
