information and new contacts help
full to any community interested
in bringing to reality, profitable
community industry.
With respect to our small coast
land counties, it is apparent that
many opportunities exist for estab-
lishment of industries. Processing
of both seafood and farm products
offer ample opportunities whereby
gainful employment can be kept
at home, and greater profits
brought to our producers. It is a
well known that as agriculture be-
comes mechanical and farm labor
needs decline, and our fishing
tends more to bigger and larger
boats, and fewer small, individual

TENACIOUS POND
PINE DEVELOPING
IN COASTLAND
Interesting Project on 100000
Acres in Dare and Tyrrell
Counties Underway
By DON HILL
I'm The Virginian-Pilot)

/ liz VIZ tAOtI
East Dismal Swamp timber men
are seeking the secrets of the
phoenix of the forest.
They're cycling pond pine, a
hardy swamp tree that, like the
bird of mythology, can rise from
the ashes.
A pair of scientists are roaming
a 3O5, 407-ac swamp tract in Dare
and Tyrrell counties belonging to
West Virginia Pulp & Paper Co.
This area on some old maps is
called Alligator Dismal Swamp.)
They hope to discover the genes
that make pond pine an almost
perfect example of natures adjust
ing to conditions.
Pond pine has a wide-sweeping
root pattern that enables it to take
hold and survive in water-soaked
peat bogs where loblolly, slash,
shortleaf and Virginia pine fail.
Cones from pond pines fall to
earth and terminate only every
five years. But the cones will
sprout much sooner if exposed to
soaring heat.
Thus a forest fire that destroys
competing underbrush and other
trees will give a pond pine seed
ling a head start in life.
Research foresters Fred True and
Ed Owens of West Virginia Pulp
& Paper Co., are taking two tacks
in an effort to make pond pine a
profitable timber-yielding tree.
For two years they have been
picking out superior trees among
all those in West Virginia's hold
ings; trees that grow straight,
healthy and fast and have limbs
that jut out at right angles, among
other qualities.
True and Owens cut shoots from
these trees by shipping them off
with % caliber rifle. They graft
the shoots to other superior trees
growing in the company's four-acre
seed orchard.
Since the grated shoots take
on the characteristics of the adult
trees from which they came,
fertile pine cones become available
much quicker. This could speed the
process of developing the perfect
pond pine.
Elsewhere, West Virginia Pulp
and Paper Co., scientists have sue
ceeded in mating pond pine to lob
Jolly pine one of the mainstays OF
timber farming in North Carolina
and Virginia.
The West Virginia studies show
will be shared with Is other pulp
and paper companies, which are
pooling forestry research in prog
ram supervised by Professor Bruce
Zobel of North Carolina State Col
lege.

craft, more people thereby join
forces with the others, and go
away from home to seek work.
When any family leaves neigh
borhood, there is a big loss in
trade and in support of all COM
munity activities. On the other
hand, if income is provided to keep
families at home and attract 9TH
ers to a community, many bene-
fits result in addition to the mere
income from payrolls.

The Croatan at Kill Devil Hills,
near Mays Head, l hadn't seen the
little red-headed kid until couple
of months ago while doing a series
of interviews in Hollywood.
The only change was that he's
no longer little. Charles now tops
six feet and must weigh close to
200, and he has acquired a wife
during his travels.
From 1851 until March of 1865
he served a stint with the Air
Force, which took him to Taegu,
Korea, and to Albany, Ga.
81 drove II straight hours from
Albany after being discharged, in
order to make the deadline for en-
rollment in the spring quarter at
East Carolina Teachers College in
Greenville, NC. For a year l was a
pre-legal major with full intention
of transferring to Wake Forest to
study law.
''This goal lasted until the
spring of 1856, when l did my first
play as a favor to a buddy. At the
first rehearsal l had one line, the
second night had Is lines and on
the third night l took over in the
role of the lieutenant in detective

the following fall l transferred to
the English department with my

mostly because l was afraid to act
for awhile. In March of 1857

clincher on my decision that drama

the stage before and the reviews
were very generous, to say the
least.

would drive the, 20 miles to The
Lost Colony, where put on total
body makeup six nights week for
$35. l played Chief Manteo and un-
derstudied the lead of John Bor-
den, but never got to play it.
Someday, maybe, l want the Colony
to let me do that role just once.
"In the fall my wife and 1 re-
turned TO ECC, but l was restless
and wrote for a catalogue from
Pasadena Playhouse. December of
the same year found us headed for
California with all our possessions
jammed into an old station wagon,
and a letter of acceptance in my
hand"
Life had its little ups and downs
after the young couple reached the
West Coast, and for awhile Charlie
sold automobiles. But within few
months he began to make friends
and get roles.
"John Payne gave me my first
role on his Restless Gum series
before / left the lot of the first
studio l visited. This man gave me
the boost that SO many SEEK" he
said.

the latest Minelli movie, Home

in release. l play a rather small
part, but am a member of key
group in the storyline."
During his IS months in the bust
ness in Hollywood, he has appeared
in more than 25 television shows
the movie, and pilot for po-
tential new series.
Shows on which he has appeared
include: Maverick, Lawman, Bron-
co, Cheyenne, Laramie, The Deputy
Rough Riders, The Texan, Shotgun
Slade, Wagon Train, Law of the
Plainsman, Rifleman, Not for Hire
Tightrope, Alcoa Theatre and the
new Zane Grey episode.
Apparently he has made a wise
choice in establishing himself as a
non-typed character actor, be-
cause in the tickle world of Holly
wood he will work much more
steadily than many of the so-calleo
stars.
