Principal Is Criticized
Testimony by one witness,
Mrs. Elva c. Wells. principal of
Roosevelt High School, drew
criticism last night from a mem
ber of the Board Of Education.
Mrs. Wells, in an appearance
Friday, told the congressional
group of a long list of problems
she said indignation had brought
to her school. She testified COL
ored students did not measure up
to the formerly all-white schools
d, customary standards.
1 Wesley S. Williams, Negro
board member, declared regard
ing Mrs. Wells testimony:
Il don't feel she gave a COM
plete picture"
The board member said he had
evidence which he would make
public shortly to back up his
criticism. He charged that Mrs.
Wells, who told the Davis group
she had made careful plans for
indignation, has done much to
defeat the efforts of the board
to further the indignation Of
her school,"
Corning Action Urged
I Mr.. Williams, in a seven-page
statement issued to the press,
also announced that he felt DR..
Corning should re-examine the
competence of some of the prin-
cipals" who had appeared at the
hearings. He said he felt some
had made severe admissions of
inadequacy."
Some reflections of these
principals indicate that they are
unable to cope with their pres
ent-day jobs" the board mem
Der declared.

plans to press this proposal later.
He said he did not wish to iden-
tify any individuals. but was not
referring to Mrs. Wells.

board member outlined various
statistics which he said showed
that the Districts colored schools

figures specified 1951-52-than

introduced figures on Wednes-
day purporting to show the OPP

Cost Difference Cited
Mr. Williams explained his
stand on the cost matter by
asserting that the city would
have had to spend far more on
its colored schools prior to in
tegration if they were to have
been brought TO equality with
those for white children.

spent s345 IS per white pupil

I was fascinated by the things they
told me of early days on the coast.
There never has been a place
where the latchstring on the out
side was more prevalent and in
easier reach than on the outer
banks. There was always an extra
bed, and room at the table.
Many the night / have spent in
Trent, where under the caves the
wind sang its song and through
the nodding pines there came the
sound of the surf. There has never
been a greater lullaby sang than
that of the seacoast.
Numerous people told me Sun
day the latchstring is still outside,
and urged me to eat. l stopped at
one of the newer homes for din
ner. Mr.. and Mrs. John Austin
have established themselves back
in Trent. Mrs. Austin is a Norfolk
girl, but John is one of numerous
men who have retired from Gov
eminent service and have returned
to rejoin the homefolks in their
endeavors. There is a revival of
community effort in the various
villages. On the outer banks are
new churches, surprisingly costly.
There are civil clubs these days.
A new Masonic lodge building is
being constructed at. Cape Hat
teras. But finest of all, everywhere
are new homes going up or just
finished and recently occupied.
Much of the beauty of the Cape
woods has been destroyed by the
wide highway built there. Some of
the charm of the Cape has been
spoiled by various Naval installa-
tons.
But the friendliness of old
friends is the same as ever. Those
who still live are generous and
lovable yet. The sad part is, there
are so many newcomers l do not
know. 1t is appalling to think of
the many, many old timers who

Ny, what winter this has been.
There have been a few mild days,
but mostly they have been rugged,
with ample time yet to become
worse. / think of Fhos. Hardy's
poem: Weathers:
|'This is the weather the cuckoo
likes,
And so do 1;
When showers betumble the chest
nut spikes,
And nestlings fly;
And the little brown nightingale
bills his best,
And they sit outside at The Ira
veller's rest
And maids come forth sprig mus
lin drest,
And citizens dream of the south
and west,
And so do /.
This is the weather the shepherd
shuns,
And so do I;
When beeches drip in browns and
duns,
And thresh, and ply;
And hill-hid tides throb, throe on
throe,
And meadow rivulets overflow,
And drops on gate bars hang in a
row,
And rocks in families homeward
go,
And so do l"
Even on Hatteras Island, where
the temperature usually hangs sew
eral notches higher than anywhere
else in northeastern North Caro-
lima, it has been colder than usual
this winter. 1t was freezing down
there Saturday night. Sunday
morning took q ride down the is
lands entire length, stopping to
see only few people. The many
changes, and the many new faces
make me realize how old l am get
ting. / stopped by Ben Dixon Mac
NeilPs cottage to leave him some
Wanchese oysters, and drove on
to Frisco, anciently known as the
village of Trent.
In all eastern North Carolina l
do not recall place where so
much building has been done in so
short time as on Hatteras Is
land. There are many new homes
in the various villages, and many
of these homes are being built by
young people who are natives and
who, with love and faith in their
homeland, plan to cast their lot
with their homefolks for the rest
of their lives. The village of Frisco
or Trent, as you may prefer to call
it has perhaps more new homes fol-
its size than any other village. OF
course the larger developments are
in Hatteras and Buxton where
great sums are being invested in
the most modern of tourist accom-
saodations. To me, it always seems
fine thing to see home people
Investing money at home, and
looking forward to lifetime with
old friends and in old surround
ings.
/ remember many happy visits
to the outer banks, and for many
years it held thrills for me to visit
more than any other place l might
name. There is something about its
sea and air and sky, its long Level
beaches, the booming of the surf
and the wind in the trees that
always thrill and delight one, and
offer soothing comfort.
