will work with the United States
Air Force in the Air Defense Fill
ter centers located in Charlotte
and Durham and in the 487 Obser-
walton Posts. Slightly less than
10000 Civil Defense volunteers
have been trained and are MEM
bers of the Ground Observer Corps.
General Griffin, announcing the
new SKYWATCH status, made the
following statement to the people
Of North Carolina.
"Citizens of this state are here
with advised that the necessity
for new Air Defense Identification
! Zones is not a wild guess by the
continuous day and night duty for
our Ground Observers Corps a
within of Civil Defense. The need
for both actions, to take every
precaution against possible enemy
attack is being dictated by the
actions and attitude of Soviet
leaders in the Kremlin. World
domination by communism has
been Soviet doctrine for over 100
years. Soviet Russia, the seat of
world communism, has exploded
thermometer devices which may
be logically considered the fore
runner of the H-Bomb. Their
rapidly growing and improving
bomber force is capable of deliver
ing devastating weapons to the
very heart of our homeland. These
weapons, if delivered without in
reference, could reduce US, in a
single series of coordinated blows,
to a position from which recovery
and survival might be impossible.
ITO counter such a threat, the
coordinated effort of all of us
civilian and military-is required.
Wars today are fought by people
as whole, not merely by military
forces. Civil Defense programs go
hand-in-hand with military pro-
grams.
Wnlle great many loyal
North Carolinians have answered
the call to serve in the Ground OBJ
server Corps, the current status
is grossly inadequate. Thousands
of additional volunteers must be
trained and available Immediately
unless real hardship is imposed
upon volunteer GOO personnel
now carrying the load.
"Until the full import of individ-
ual and community responsibility
is realized and the challenge met
at the public level, the state of
North Carolina, with inadequate
SKYWATCH, may be considered
vulnerable, constituting a poten-
tial threat to national survival"

other county at some future court
term. Further plans about the trial
have not been concluded.
The excuse set for the postpone
ment of another civil action was
that Norman Brantley, one of the
witnesses could not be located. In
this case, Mr.. and Mrs. Earl Green
and Mr.. and Mrs. H. F. Gaskins
are suing C. C. Duvall and others,
alleging serious injuries sustained
when truck owned by the defend
ants, and the car of the plaintiff
was in collision near Manteo
some two years ago.
|. At the term of court in Manteo
this week, Judge j. Paul Frizelle
of Snow Hill could not come due
to illness, and Judge F. Don Phil
lips of Rockingham presided.
Judge Phillips made good inn
preston locally with the ease and
dispatch with which he conducted
the court. He is noted for his ca
reer in Germany where he presided
at some of the trials of war
criminals.
This third term of court for
Dare County is now regular term,
bringing regular terms to three a
year. AS in past history the third
term, sometimes heretofore held as
special term in midsummer or
in mid-winter has accomplished
very little toward clearing any
great number of civil cases from
a congested docket. They are us
ually expensive. Jurors in Dare
cost So per day and mileage, with
an extra day being added to the
pay of those coming from Hat
teras Island and obliged to remain
over in Manteo every night.
But disappointment in the re-
suits of court is no new thing.
1t seems to prevail in many coun-
ties. an example of how results
are viewed in other counties is
manifested in an editorial in the
Elizabeth City Advance as follows:
Just Plain Foolishness
Pasquotank County has just seen
another farce in connection with
the operation of its Superior Court
and it is high time that State Off
Gals and members Of the bar take
some action to correct the disgust
ing situation. !,
A weeks session of court for the
trial of civil cases were scheduled
to open in Elizabeth City on Mon
day of this week. Judge Paul
Frizzelle of Snow Hill was on hand
and got the court session under
way as scheduled. Five divorce
actions were heard in fast time
Judge Frizzelle then asked what
the next case on the calendar

statewide primary. The many
important issues hingeing upon
this election should haul or drive
every qualified voter to the polls
to cast his vote.
Our Negro citizens should be
under greater compulsion to get
out and vote. The election will
present them an opportunity to
prove their sincerity in the COM

have made over a period of years.
1t is extremely necessary that
we get out a large vote. It is the
duty of every leader, club or So

every registered citizen to vote.
To fail to do this will reflect dis
credit upon our ability to recog-

sober and sincere hope of thought

church will accept its response

fibre and spiritual stamina of all
American citizenry.

The powerful Bishops Council is

The AME connection is one of

1t is certain that much of the
business of the sessions will move
into the secular in the light of
recent developments so vitality
affecting the status of Negro
American life.
In this particular we are sure
the eyes of an anxious world are
eagerly trained upon this meet
with earnest longings. 1t is GER
tain the voice of the church will
speak out as being uniquely de-
voted to advancing the highest
of our democratic ideals. Theirs
is a service we'll conceived. The
salvation of this great Republic
rests upon the influence for good
which the church can WELD. The
leadership of the AME Church
aims at a result vital to the bene-
fit of all. It has held fast to the
tenets of the American creed and
has inspired the faith of ire
mendouS following both at home
and in the missionary fields in
the integrity of the nation.
1t is early to predict what effect
the outcome of these deliberations
will have on the impact of the de-
segregation rulings currently caus-
ing so much unrest here in the
Southland. However it is safe to
venture the thought that it will be
FOR good and in the interest of
harmony.
1t is hopefully encouraging to
note that more and more the
church is raising its voice in de-
Tense of the practice of the true
brotherhood of man and in so do
ing is capturing active interest of
its membership in all denomina-
lions.
There is opportunity now as

that the thousands Of church

can open letter 10 high school
seniors from a Talladega College
senior"
Dear High School Seniors,
Just a reminder to you to take
advantage of the opportunity you
have now to get your education
while it is partly free.
Without a doubt, you h a v e
heard your instructors and grad
yates teach and preach to you
concerning the same topic. With
out a doubt, you did the same as
I did when / was in high school
and that is to let it go in one ear
and out the other. Oh! But you
were listening so attentlvely be-
cause it took UP some OF your
class time. Yes, l know all about
it because now I'm doing my
practice teaching in French at q
high school here in Talladega and
| take up my class time to YELL
them the same things.
Somebody's l say to them, some
of you will attend college with
students from all over the world.
A college is an institution for
futhering your education, but
how can one further his edIca-
ton if he didn't take advantage
of the opportunities he had IN
high school for procuring his ed
ucation? Believe me, and say
this with all sincerity, that ! re-
gret it infinitely that / didn't get
what l could out of high school.
regret that I didn't learn HOW
to study. AS result l had TO go
back and learn the things that
nv high school instructors tried
so diligently to teach me, then at
the same time keep up with the
rest of the students.
When / first came to Talladega,
became interested in sororities
and wanted very much to become
affiliated. In order to make a
sorority one has to make eXcep-
tionally good grades. So / worked
hard and made the grade AND
now l am a member of Delta Sig
ma Theta Sorority. Then I be-
came a language major.
During the latter part OF my
Junior year / wrote my wonderful
parents and told them that /
wanted to go to Europe to help
perfect the little French that !
knew. Immediately they wrote
and told me that could go. So
taking advantage of this wonder
full opportunity to see another
part of the world, I studied
French in Paris and toured other
parts OF Europe.
Here at Dega, I joined the Little
Theater and have appeared in
s'The Crucible," "Winterset." and
''The Children's Hour" I travel
ed with these plays to different
parts of Alabama, South Carolina
and Georgia. Before the Christ
mas holidays, / directed angel
of Mercy" a play for try-out can
didates for the Little Theater.
During the Christmas vacation,
left the states the second time
in 1855 with the Modern Lam
guage Dept. and went to small
island in the French West Indies
called Martinique. There again I
had the opportunity of speaking
French to native French speakers.
