One of the flaws in the Queens
Ball was the lateness which the
Coy Tucker band arrived. The
musicians did not get here until
about 1000 and caused some con-
fusion in the program. Ben Nc
Donald, popular radio commentat-
or of Raleigh and Wilmington,
kept the event moving along as
master of ceremonies.
The much-discussed Mystery
King" of 1852, the first year that

TOWN BOARD GIVES WATSON
Vote OF CONFIDENCE

Members of the Tabor City
Board of Commissioners gave
Chief of Police L. R. Watson a vote
of confidence at the October meet
ing held last week. However,
Commissioner Willard Wright did
not vote for Watson.
Ending go day period set aside
for consideration of charges of
inefficiency and neglect of duty,
the town board rehired Watson
and expressed confidence in the
officers ability.
Two members of the board ask
ed for Watson's resignation about
three months ago, but Troy Ben
nett, one of the two, resigned a
short time later when he was in
dicted for Ku Klux Klan activity.
He was replaced by Fred NJ. Jern-
igan.
Several hundred persons rallied
behind Watson at a mass meeting
at the school house and persuaded
him to withdraw his resignation
which he rendered at the request
of the commissioners. The 60-day
consideration period silenced the
flareup and the status of Chief
Watson was somewhat uncertain
until the boards expression of
confidence was given last week.
Tive of the three present men,
bers of the board took the posi-
tioE that .H..-s,e again. II: Of
ficer were unfounded and voted
for his retention as police chief.
Chief Watson has been head of
the police department here for
more than five years. He came to
Tabor City from Chadbourn in
1947.

BY willard G. Wright

This is a reply to an article ap-
pearing in the News Reporter of
last Thursday which implied that
Chief Watson was cleared of
charges which 1 presented to the
City Council two months ago.
These charges were not denied
:aen, nor since, they still stand as
presented.
The above mentioned article
said the board retired Chief Wat
son and expressed confidence in
MIN as an officer. Two board
members closed their eyes and
minds to all chare.s made then
and any to come later regardless
of the nature. 1 made a motion to
accept Watson's resignation. 1 also
asked that his letter of resignation
be re-read to prove that he is not
fair and impartial, but this letter
could not be found. I would like
to remind you that this letter was
ordered filed in the minutes of
the council meeting two months
ago. voted not to keep Watson
and will continue to this stand.
This article stated that 400 to
500 people attended the mass
meeting at the school. This is a
gross mis- representation, the
number being a great deal less. 1
dare say that 100 people would
have attended had it not been for
the method used by several citi-
zens in begging people to attend.
This was carried far enough to
ask farmers seven miles away to
attend.
The article went on to imply
that Chief Watson was response
BILE for the freedom from vicious
crimes which once marred the
reputation of the community. Now
I ask you how can any one man
be so good? The truth lies from
the removal of beer and wine in
Tabor City. The people are be-
coming better educated and fin
ally better economic conditions
which allow more freedom of
travel, have tended to lessen the
number of people who hang "a
round on the streets at night. 1t is
the elimination of beer, wine and
honky-tonky which has brought
better condition and less crime.

HISTORICAL LIGHT HOUSE
MAKES Way FOR PROGRESS

Progress forged ahead in Port
Clinton these past few days when
David Jeremy and Son, marine
contractors, removed the wooden
light house structure on the west
pier, erected in 1896, and re-
placed it with a new metal struc-
ture with red blinker. The new
light will flash red for three Sec
onds and remain dark for one Sec
ond.
Port Clinton's first light house
was a lantern on a pole, placed at
the entrance to the Portage Riv-
er. In 1888, the first real struc-
ture was built of stone and stood
at the corner of Perry and Adams
street. A wooden light house was
erected in 1896, placed on the west
pier, stood "a feet high and boast
ed an oil lamp. This was the
structure which was replaced last
week.
In 1926 an electric light was in
stalled. Clarence Perry, retired,
was the last custodian of the
structure.
According to David Jeremy, the
new light is twice as powerful as
