A. @. BELL CHAIRMAN OF
NEW DRAMA COMMITTEE

Albert Q. Bell has been named
chairman of a new Lost Colony
committee which will have to do
with the buildings and grounds
of the symphonic drama which is
scheduled to begin its 18th season
this year on June 80. The COM
committee was appointed this
week in Raleigh by Bill Sharpe,
chairman of the Roanoke Island
Historical Association.
Because of three different
propositions that have been made
to the Association, two of them
in a rather tentative manner, it
seems to me that we should have
a Building and Grounds commit
tee which will work with the as
sociatiOn's production committee
and others in recommending suit
able action on such proposals as
are before US which will come
up in the future" said Sharpe in
bulletin to the officers and
board members of the sponsoring
organization this week.
In addition to Bell, who is sup
erintendent of the dramas thea
tire and assistant to the manager
Mrs. Charles C. Cannon, Concord
Mrs. Inglis Fletcher, Edentor
and Guy H. Lennon, Manteo have
been appointed to serve on tho
committee. This committee also
may find it necessary to call or
the liaison committee for help in
obtaining funds or cooperation
from other agencies.
The three different propositions
referred to by Sharpe include ten.
ative offers for revamping Ger.
tain sets at the theatre to make
them more authentic, by the Soci.
ETY. for the Preservation of Anti.
Quities; grant from the State
Garden Clubs to establish &
Shakespearian or Elizabethar
garden on the associations prop
erty, and the acquisition of Ger
tain lands for the association.

MRS. ANNIE ALLEN. TO
ISSUE DRIVING PERMITS
Manteo Woman Recently Appoint
ed For Two Days A Week at
Dare County Courthouse

Driver License Examiner Mrs.
Annie j. Allen of Manteo reminds
motorists who obtained renewal
of their driver licenses, in 1947
under the Resistance Program,
to check their card for the expir-
alton date. Mrs. Allen is the wife
of John Allen of Manteo, and sue
ceeds Eber r. Wescott who rec
emily died.
The expiration date, Examiner
Allen stated, will be found in the
lower right hand corner of the
motorists present license cards.
These motorists will be permitted
to seek renewal 80 days prior to
the expiration date, which falls
on their birthdate. The majority
will have surnames beginning
with A or B, but a few will fall in
other Alphabetical groups. Motor
lists who do not seek renewal in
advance of the expiration date on
their cards, will be required to
take the complete test, Examiner
Allen pointed out. A space will be
provided on the new license cards
for blood type, which will be plac-
ed on the cards upon presenta-
ton of evidence of blood type.
Since inclusion of this information
is public service and voluntary
on the part of applicants, failure
to present the blood type will not
be reason to deny issuance of Ii
censes, said Examiner Allen.
The daily schedule for. the ex-
aminer in Manteo is Monday and
Tuesday of every week at the
court house.
