KITTY HAWK PRINCIPAL
ASKS PARENTS HELP

To the Editor:
Almost all of the magazines and
newspapers published during the
past few months have featured ar
ticles concerning Equality Educa-
ton"
Competent teachers, a richer cur
riculum, better attendance, more
and better equipment, larger more
modern buildings and several other
possible needs have been listed as
the answer to the problem.
AS an elementary school teacher
who teaches because of a love for
children and the joy of seeing eyes
opened and minds continue to func-
ton, | would like to name one other
thing that l believe we need in
North Carolina.
We need parents who will teach
their children at home. do not ad-
vocate parents teaching reading,
writing and arithmetic, but simply
proper attitudes and manners.
Before proper learning can take
place in a child's life he must have
had certain mount of readiness
training. This training must go or
all of his waking hours. He must
have respect for authority, his peers
and for society in general. He mus
have love, understanding accept.
ance, achievement and affection. HI
should get these things at home a.
well as at school.
The school should be a plac,
where child's education can con
tinue instead of a place wher,
learning begins. Teachers have beer
forced, through the negligence o.
some parents, to teach the thing
that should have been taught in tn,
home. This slows the learning pro
; cess.

large part of each day trying t,
make children behave properly Ger
tainly are not able to spend thi
valuable time on academic studies

GETS Is STRIPERS
LAST SAT. MORNING

Linwood Pierce, Raleigh, last
Saturday morning while fishing in
waters around the Croatan Sound
bridge, landed around Is rockfish,
weighing as much as 8 pounds each.
He was fishing with Capt. Ralph
Craddock, who party fishes when

landed several speckled trout.
Rockfishing in the area of the
bridge is improving each week, and
sometimes as many as fifty boats

BETSY :. We have a son, Mar
tin, who will be % in December and
lis senior at the University of
North Carolina. Another one of our
boys, Tommy, is 18 and senior at
Needham Broughton here in Ra-

A third son, John, is eight, and in
the third grade at Sherwood Bates.
We have a daughter, Martha, 81
months old, who will keep US in

So, we should know something

too hard in school, that the courses

But, nevertheless, DR.. Edwards is
a wonderful man, deeply spiritual
individual, and an excellent student
and after-dinner speaker.
OUR children have not had to
work enough in school, or out of
school, to keep along with their
grades-such as they were. And l

down on the studies-and pay less
attention to folderol-than most of
our other schools in the State.

BAD KIsSIGEN, GERMANY
October l, 1861

Dear Editor:
Bad Kissingen, famous for its
mineral springs, is very lovely re-
sort town located in northeastern
Bavaria. From May through Sep
TENDER people crowd here from all
over Europe for "the cure. 1t is
said to have been the favorite spa
of Bismark. The mineral waters are
believed to be able to cure almost
any disease. 1t is familiar sight
to see crowds of people drinking
the water and promenading through
the colorful parks. The Kurgarten
and Rosegarten are the most popu-
lar of these parks filled with beau
tiful flowers and fountains which
are lighted at night. Many open air
concerts are given in the Kurgarten
Tin case of rain, they are in the
Kurhouse). Some of these concerts
have been free and others have cost
IL cents.
The month of September has
been warm and beautiful here, and
the town has been crowded. We
have been warned that cold weather
is near, tourist season will soon be
over, and the town will close up.
Most of the hotels here are either
"cure" houses or rest houses. The
Marine Hotel, which is the B o @
and where the teachers are billeted,
was formerly the rest house of the
German Navy.
About three miles up the hill
from the Marine Hotel, near the
Army post, is the American school
It is a small, nine teacher school
much like a modern elementary
school back in the states with g
slight difference in the curriculum
Conversational German is taught
in all grades, and an understanding
of German culture is stressed il
the social studies.
Opportunities for travel are no
SO great as if we were near larg'
city, but we have done pretty wei

We spent Labor Day week emf
touring Vienna. Schonbrunn Castl

probably always stand out in on
memories. We were in Munich TO
the first week end of the Octobe
fest. This festival is huge stat

sent our children to, rural schools
and noted more mess - and YOU
know what we mean by "messs 4
in them than in the Raleigh CITY
Schools; and there is enough here.
Those parents who agree with DR.
Edwards may be guilty of wallowI
ing in the childish, immature think
ing of their offspring instead Of
thinking for themselves on schoo
matters. Fact is, just a lot of tight
ening-up and sharper discipline il
needed in our schools - particular
ly in our high schools. That is why
we have SO vigorously supported
teacher pay raises - to attrac,
men, and better teachers all-around
to the profession.
In defending his quality educa-
ton" program, Governor Terry
Sanford quoted at length his -
year-old daughter, Betsy, who is :
seventh grader at Josephus Daniel;
Junior High just block from oul
home here.
The Governor quoted Betsy as
saying she just didn't believe ''thai
preacher" knew what he was talk
ing about. There is probably no bet
ter school in the State than five
year-old Daniels. Not much foolish
ness!

WHY DANIELS? Incidental
ly, this Betsy statement marked tho
first time she had been in the news
since the opening of school early in
September.
At that time, it was announced
that Betsy Sanford, having com
pleted the grades at elementary
Murphy, near the Mansion, would
attend across-town Daniels instead
of nearby Hugh Morson.
Raleigh School Superintendent
Jesse o. Sanderson declined to give
reason for the transfer. Such in
formation on transfer request
forms is often of a personal ma
ture, he asserted. He went ON I'd
say that transfers are the order Of
the day, with requests granted il
there seems to be good, solid rea
sons for them. Sanderson rufused I'd
comment further.
He was never pushed, and to ou1|
knowledge the Governor or MRS.
Sanford were never asked = al
least publicity, to explain the rea-
SON for wanting Betsy to attend
Daniels three miles from home in1
stead of Hugh Morson three blocks
from her residence.
Some of the parents at Hugh
Morson became incensed at thd
transfer taking snorting too-good1
for-our-children approach. One Cd
two wrote letters to the papers
about it. The Governor said moth
ing.
Well, it is important to know that
Josephus Daniels Junior High is ind
tegrated. Two or three colored
children are enrolled there this
year. Hugh Morson is not integrat1
ed as yet. 1t is also good to bear id
mind that the Governor has NOT
much more to do with the Raleigh
City Schools than you have. Murphy
Elementary School has token inl
tegration.
The story we get is that if Betsy
Sanford had gone from integrated
Murphy to non-intergrated Hugh
Morson, certain Northern and
Western newspapers and televisior|
stations would have blasted some
thing to this effect: Governor OF
North Carolina Transfers Daughtel
from integrated to All-Whitd
SCHOOL," There would have been
photos of her entering Hugh Nor
son = and all sorts of comment :.
from people who would rather NOT
have the facts. The State of North
Carolina and the South would have
suffered.
| That's the scuttlebutt here as I'd
why hard-studying Betsy Sanford
was transferred from Hugh Nor
son to Josephus Daniels. We heat
she is getting along fine, is well
liked and loves the school.

Virgin Islonds Agricultural Progrom News
CHRONOLOGICAL CONTRIBUTIONS TO HUMAN
WELFARE THROUGH PEST CONTROL

DR.. Asa Fitch, one of the first federal government
entomologists said, There is no kind of mischief going
on in the world of nature around us, but what some
insect is at the bottom of it" If we think about this
statement a minute we can recall numerous instances
where the devitry Of insects has played a vital part
infringing about changes in the economy of the United
States. Some may have been good, the majority GER
tainly were bad.
It has been consertively estimated that insects,
diseases, nematodes, and weeds reduce the value of the
United States agricultural and forest production by
more than 10 billion dollars each year. Classic examples
of some of the most damaging Of these pests include the
boil Weevil, only one OF several important cotton pests
which causes losses from 100 to 200 million dollars each
year; the European corn borer, so million dollars; and
the stem rust diseases of ceareas, 50 million dollars. The
u S. Forest Service reports that in a single year insects
alone destroy enough saw timber to build 1.3 million
homes.
In 1861, and for a few years yet to come, perhaps
we in this country can afford to let insects and plant
diseases destroy millions of dollars worth OF food, tim
Der, and other resources. This will not always be So.
In the near future we may face our greatest challenge.
New tilliable lands are no longer available to increase
food production to feed a rapidly expanding population
While increased yields through improved varieties and
fertilization will be able to provide part Of the increase
needed, we as biological scientists will be called upon
to further reduce the losses to insects and diseases
if we are to continue as the best fed nation in the world.
If entomologists are to be successful, an immediate
contribution must be made. Even now many people are
frightened with regard to the use OF p~esticides. The
confidence Of the public must be regained by intelligent
direction of our plant protection programs, by supplying
growers with safe and effective control recommends.
tons. Emphasis must be shifted from the fears OF pes
ticides to one of concern that these materials may not
be adequate to insure enough food for the estimated 35O
million Americans in 1000 Adjust forty years from
now.
