were vague as to whether these
employees would receive the rs
per cent Senate-approved pay
raise for classified workers.
Some of the Senators were
under the impression that the
bill as approved by the Senate
took care of these employees.
However, it now develops that
the Senate-approved bill does
not provide them rs per cent
raise, What the bill provides
is that the Civil Service Com
mission, after the classified pay
raise bill becomes law, may in
its discretion authorize a rs
per cent salary increase for
these workers.
In other words. it would be
up to the csc to decide
whether these employees should
receive the raise approved by
Congress. 81

Now to deny these employees

PIRATES JAMBOREE
FEATURES EVENTS
FOR ALL AGES

Dare Coast Pirates Jamboree this
year on April 24-27 will feature
events for all ages, including ad-
ults, teenagers or young adults
and children, it was stated today
by Alvah Ward, chairman of the
overall steering committee.
His announcement came follow
ing reports that Dare Coast young
sters who had roles in several
events last season were being left
out this year.
For the very young, that is chill
dren under IL years of age, there
will be a treasure hunt in the Dare
Beaches area and also costume con-
tests.
A pre-Jamboree attraction for
teen-agers and young adults will
be a Pirate Royal dance at which
a prince and princess will be Sc
lected. Already several male
teen-agers in the Manteo con-
solidated school are acquiring a
surprising growth of beard and ad-
ults from Kitty Hawk to Hatteras
are sporting full or trimmed
boards.
A complete tentative schedule
for the Dare Beaches area was an
nounced this week by co-chai1men
George Sides and Dick Jordan.
Something new in vehicular sport
are bicycle races on the circle sur
rounding Wright Memorial to re-
place beach buggy races in upper
Dare. The frog-jumping contests
this year, a preliminary to the in
ternational Frog Jumping Jubilee
at Angels Camps, Calf, will be held
in a section of Mays Head where
there will be adequate parking
Frog jumpers will make entries
that they hope will outjump Or
vile Baum's "Atom Baum" which
flew to Angels Camp last year for
competition.
Several pre-Jamboree events are
planned in the way of dances at
Mays Head Casino, and caravans to
various North Carolina and Vir-
ginia cities. Actual coronation of
the pirate king and queen succeed
ing Pat Bayne and Virginia Swain
this year will he held in the open,
probably at Coquina Beach.

JOHN REBER LOSES HOME
AT WANCHESE TUESDAY

Mr.. and Mrs. John Reber had
the misfortune to lose their home
and most of their belongings at
Wanchese shortly before noon Fri
day when the hause caught fire
from an overheated flue. The house
was the former Ed Pugh home sit
uated across the road from Richard
Gray, and while the house was
past saving before the Manteo fire
department could reach it, the eff
fective work of the firemen was
responsible in preventing the loss
of nearby property. Richard Gray
says he believes his home was
saved only because Of the efforts
of the firemen.
Mr.. and Mrs. Reber have six
children. They have moved into the
Paul Dykstra house at Wanchese.
Because of the acute circumstances,
neighbors have been raising some
funds and gifts of clothing and
furniture to help them.
