Both trucks. of the Port Clinton
Fire department were called, and
water was pumped from the Bay
for five hours. The Catawba fire
truck stood by at the local station
in event of other fire calls.
Guests were at dinner in the ad-
jacent clubhouse when Mrs. John
Anderson, wife of the Winous
Point manager, saw the fire from
her kitchen window at 9:34 p. m.
Only Is minutes before, one of
the guests had returned to the
dormitory for a camera, to take
pictures in the dining room, and
said there was no smell c. smoke
at that time.
Twenty-Five members of the
Club were at Winous Point for athe
weekend, and nearly all of them
were staying III the burned dor
mitory, known as the bungalow"
Most of them were from Cleve-
land. All but eight returned home
Saturday night. One man lost
even his car keys, which were in
his room, and had to call garage
man to set into his car.
The dormitory, newest of the
Winous Point buildings, had II
bedrooms, a large clubroom, a
kitchen and a bath. Paneling was
largely done in pine bark, beauti-
fully vanished. The pine, plus the
recent dryness, spread the flames
rapidly Windows went out with
near-eXplosion force, said fire
chief Walter Miller. Heat was so
intense that grass within a 100
yard radius was scared, and trees
were still smoking Sunday.
The flames were punctuated
with the sharp reports of bullets
as ammunition in the rooms of
Club members exploded.
/, The wind was favorable, sparks
going out over the Bay, and the
nearby clubhouse and another dor
mitory did not catch on fire.
Winous Point Club lies about
two and a half miles off Route
So, one-lane dirt road leading to
the exclusive club which has a
wealthy out-of-town membership.
Deputy sheriff Myron Hetrick
handled traffic at the entrance to
the road, keeping out curious fol-
lowers of the fire trucks. Later,
during the night, he was aided by
state highway patrolmen.
But before the sheriff's depart
ment was notified of the fire,
some curiosity seekers had gotten
back to the fire scene and the re-
sultant traffic bottle-up in the
narrow road was a serious hazard.
The incident brought renewed
impetus to the feeling that some
thing should be done locally about
curious motorists who follow the
fire trucks. There is strong pos
sibility that the department may
soon have "dry run" run
in which there is no fire, but at
which any truck-chasers will find
themselves getting traffic tickets

UNITED
NOTES
BY JAMES r. LAWSON


accredited UN Correspondent
UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. (GLO-
BAY)-The United States charged
last week that Communist China
exported $50 million worth of op-
ium, morphine and heroin last year
in a formidable and far-reaching
plot to gain foreign exchange and
at the same time to demoraliZe the
people of the free world"
Harry J. Anslinger, Federal Mar
coticS Commissioner and American
delegate to the United Nations
Commission on Narcotic Drugs,
told the Commission that the new
est innovation in Red China's pro-
gram of spreading narcotics in the
free world is that Peking's Foreign
Ministry has overall control ever
the entire program" -
Spreading narcotic addiction and
obtaining funds for political pur-
poses through the sale of heroin
and opium is the policy of the en-
tire Communist regime in MAIN
land China" Mr.. Anslinger said.
He called the policy an "insidious
calculated scheme" to spread de-
bauchery among the free nations.
Mr.. Anslinger said that in one
raid in San Francisco on April 5,
six pounds of heoin were seized -
enough to supply a million doses of
this deadliest of drugs" He re-
ported that huge amount" of
heroin was smuggled into Japan
from China during the last year,
and that South Korea is "the tar
get of tremendous quantities" of
heroin from North Korea. There
has been, on the other hand, a
noticeable trend" to bypass ship
ments through Hong Kong be-
cause of the positive attitude" of
law enforcement officials there
against drug traffickers, he said.
All of this indicated that the
drug racketeers in the United
States are under the control of
Red China and the U.S.S.R.

PLANTS GET TRIMMED TOO

PLANTS GET TRIMMED TOO
There's a certain kind of trim
ming that's legal - like trimming
plants. But you have to know
when to do it.
Pruning Towering shrubs de-
pends on the kind of wood where
flowers are borne, explains Har-
vey F. Tate, extension horticul-
turist at the University of Arizona
You can trim many shrubs right
after their Towering season. This
allows new wood to grow for the
| following spring. Such shrubs in
clude Jasmine, Oleander, Flower
ing Almond, Spirea, and Flower
ing Ounce. Prune these plants
severely or lightly depending on
the needs of each plant.
Other plants bear flowers or
wood growing in the summer
Lantana, Mexican Bird of Para
disc, and Buddleia are in this
group. Prune them heavily in the
spring and early summer This
will allow them to flower on new
wood.
It's best to prune berry-produc-
ing shrubs such as Pyracantha and
Cotoneaster when in flower. BY
pruning at this time, berries car
be left for fall color. Thin out
large clusters of berries to keep
the plant from pulling open when
The berries get heavy. Remove
branches with nc berries.
Improper pruning may ruin the
Towering period of a shrub for a
season. So take special care to do
good job.
When the more perishable fresh
vegetables and fruits, now selling
in film packages, come home from
market, they should go into the
refrigerator promptly if they are
to keep fresh.

TRAVEL IN DARE
AVERAGE FOR SEASON

Mays Head-In spite of rains
which have slowed up attend
ance at some of the National
Park units during mid-July, the
travel figures generally for the
Dare Coast this year are up to
previous summer averages, a
survey reveals.
At Kill Devil Hills, the Wright
Brothers National Monument,
had 25,648 visitors counted dur
ing June, approximately the
same number as in 1858 despite
the fact that early June brought
chilly weather in the coastal
region.
On Roanoke Island at Fort
Raleigh, a national historic site,
approximately 1868 persons
visited the area during the past
month. These figures for July
will soar to many thousands due
to the fact that The Lost Colony,
presented in Waterside Theatre
on the historic site, is bringing
many additional persons to the
area.
More than 10000 persons
crossed Oregon Inlet Ferry into
the Hatteras Island area of Cape
Hatteras National Seashore dur
ing June. Emmett Winslow,
First District Highway Commits
sioner stated this week that ap-
proximately 5000 automobiles
were hauled by the Oregon In
let ferries during the past month.
An average of four persons were
aboard each vehicle.
Ferry traffic has shown a tre-
mendous increase during the
first half of July. This has been
brought about by the addition of
new 22-car craft which supple
ments a similar vessel in opera
ton there. The ferry schedules
now operate almost continuously
and the long waits for an oppor-
tunity to board one of the craft
is no longer necessary. The fer
ries operate from early morning
until early evening.
No official count is made of
the number of visitors entering
Cape Hatteras National Seashore
in the Mays Head area north of
Oregon Inlet. 1t is estimated that
more than $4,000 persons travel
ed to and from the northern
limits of the Seashore area
during June.

time. I returned in June wher

she came to me with a stick. She
started to whip me because had

sore ashamed of what l had done
and l wept also.
After a while the people began
to eat as they stood around her

and talked, but she was not
there. Thunder began to mutter
and grumble in the west. The
heat was almost unbearable.
Once when l was only a lad,

AGRICULTURE TEACHERS
STUDY WATER SYSTEMS

The procedure for determin-
ing the requirements and design
ing an adequate water sysem for
farmsteads was presented to the
thirty-seven Vocational Agricul-
ture Teachers who attend the
Water Systems Workshop in
Vanceboro on July 8 and 9. L. o.
Armstrong, Professor of Agri-
cultural Education, N. c. State
College, presided over the two
day meeting held in the Vance
boro High School. Thos. Duboise,
Vo-Ag Teacher at Vanceboro
High School, was host teacher
for the group.
Instruction at the workshop
was provided by representatives
of Carolina Power & light Co.,
Virginia Electric and Power Co.,
Myers Pump Co., and Dillon
Supply Co.
The Vanceboro center for Vo-
cational Agriculture Teachers in
Wayne, Lenoir, Craven, Pamlico,
Pitt, Beaufort, Hyde, Green,
Jones, Carteret, and Onslow is
one of the twelve centers
throughout the state where SINH
lar workshops on water systems
have been held. Instruction at
the other centers was provided
by representatives of the major
power suppliers and the major
pump dealers in the state.
In introducing the workshop,
Mr., Armstrong brought out the
importance of having running
water on our North Carolina
farms. He indicated that the au-
tomato water system is of great
est importance in improving our
standard of living.
| During the course of the work
shop, two farms in the Vance
boro area were visited. The
farms of W. R. Boyd and c. P.
Prescott were surveyed by the
teachers and specific recommen-
dations were given to provide
adequate running water in each
instance.
| In closing, attention was again
called to the importance of hav-
ing an adequate water system
and it was suggested that the
teachers in attendance should
promote the use of the automatic
water system in their own areas.
