.6I.5 MILLIONS IN
BONDS VOTED DOWN
HEAVILY TUESDAY
Dare County Went For All Is
sues By Large Maiorities: Lost
By Two To One

BY an average of nearly two to
one in light vote, Dare County
gave approval of the els millions
in the state bonds submitted to N.
c. voters Tuesday. However, by a
vote of upwards of two to one a.
gainst, the voters of the state turn
ed down the proposals, and all
were lost, thereby giving Governor
Sanford, a major blow in his am
billions to bring about many state
wide improvements.
Dare was the only county in the
area which gave approval to all
the issues, in entirety, but a few
counties, approved one or two of
them. The issues would have provid-
ed some 1876 million for the ports
of Morehead City and Whining
ton; 81 millions for higher educa-
ton institutions; nearly three mil
lions for buildings in the capital
area in Raleigh to house state Of
Ifices: more than 2.5, millions for
libraries and the departments of
archives and history; nearly 1.5 mil
lions for community colleges; over
a million for state training schools;
a half-million for local hospitals;
nearly million for parks, and over
a quarter million for agricultural
research.

|WILDFOWL HUNT
BEGINS FRIDAY
IN N. CAROLINA

The Wild goose season opens to-
day, Friday, Nov. 10, and closes
January 9Th. The Duck season opens
November Fl and closes Dec. 30th.
Wildfowl shooting was once for
many years a big industry in North
Carolina, and brought a livelihood
to many people. A scarcity of game
has caused a loss of interest in the
sport, and this year, the bag limit
for geese is two in day, with only
four allowed in possession.
Snow geese may not be killed,
and hunters are urged to shoot
only male ducks, and leave female
ducks to nest next year. AS many
as ten brant may be killed, and as
many as ten be in possession. But
limits are low on ducks. The daily
bag limit is three - six in possess
sion. One may kill six coots, and
have six in possession.

DARE MEN CliRiSTEN
FERRIES IN CEREMONY
r. Bruce Eshsridss and A. w. Drink.
water Break Bottles on Boats Named
For Them

Two of North Cardinals newest
ferries, already operating on regu-
lar schedules across Oregon Inlet
were featured in a delayed christen-
ing ceremony here Monday after
noon.
Also featured in the ceremonies
were two distinguished Dare citi-
zens, R. Bruce Etheridge and
Alpheus w. Drinkwater, for whom
the ferries We're named.
Each of the two, both of whom
have been active in Dare for more
than 60 years, broke the gaily
wrapped bottles over the bows of
the former landing craft which
were loaned permanently to North
Carolina by U. S. Department of
Interior.
The state in turn has spent more
than 100000 in converting the
vessels and a third ferry now
operating at Hatteras Inlet into
the finest of the highway depart
ments fleet of ferries.
Travel Memories
Paying tribute to the men the
vessels were named for was Mer-
rill Evans, chairman of the State
Highway Commission. Also parti-
cipating in the ceremonies were
Dare County Rep. M. Keith Fearing
and Melvin r. Daniels, representing
the Dare Board of County Com
missioners.
Drinkwater recalled travel along
the Outer Banks, Etheridge thank
ed the highway commission for the
honor and said he hoped soon these
two ferries would be replaced by a
bridge.
Evans assured that the bridge
would be built, that present plans
call for letting the contract for the
Oregon Inlet Span early in 1862.
He praised the leadership Of
Dare County and said: This county
has seen great development as re-
suit of its leaders. I don't know
another place where so few have
done so much, with SO little in so
short a time"

Fearing thanked the commits
sion head for the interest he and
his group have taken in pushing the

ELECTION is POSTPONED

Several citizens of the communal
ty of Wanchese have organized to
maintain a community center, hav-
ing sometime ago acquired the
former school property, and on
which several people have donated
considerable labor in making i'm
|provements. Plans had been made
to vote in Tuesdays election on a
proposal to levy a small tax to
maintain the building, but due to
overlooking a technicality in max
ing proper announcement of the
election it was found necessary to
postpone voting until later date.
Thirty days notice must be given
by due advertisement before such
election can be held. James w. Da-
Wis, is chairman Of the community
building Board of Trustees, and the
citizens on this committee have
shown a commendable spirit which

;LIFTON BRITTON, longtime di-
rector of the Lost Colony, who re-
sides on Roanoke Island each sum-
mer and returns to Goldsboro for
wintering, was recently featured in
the News and Observer as Tar Heel
of the Week. The interesting COM
ments written by Gene Roberts, Jr.,
follow:
In mid-November the lights will
dim in Goldsboro's high school audi
forum, the stage curtain will start
its slow ascent and Clifton Britton,
la small boyish-looking bachelor
with a crew cut, will present the
opening production of his goth sea-
son as director of Goldsboro High
Schools award-winning "Goldmas-
quer" drama group.
Britton arrived at the high school
in the fall of 1912 with a satchelful
of scripts, a masters degree from
East Carolina College and freshly
typed masters thesis-"How to Or
ganize a Successful High School
Drama Program"
On Stage In Good Footing.
A few weeks previously an Army
doctor had assured him the war
years would not interfere with his
plans for putting his thesis to work.
"Your feet are SO bad" the doctor
told him, shat even the Salvation
Army wouldn't take you."
Once at the school, Britton found
26 would-be drama students and a
highly sympathetic principal. "Clif-
ton," Principal C. w. Twiford said,
I"You can't really educate child
unless you expose him to the arts
that's your job"
The exposure began with "Death
Takes a Holiday" which had just
completed a successful Broadway
run, and continued with plays by
such proven playwrights as Thorn
ton Wilder and George NJ. Cohan.
Britton, meanwhile, learned that
the auditorium.s l,266 seats weren't
enough to hold all the people who
wanted to see MS productions. He
was forced TO schedule all OF his
plays for three-night runs.
Drama Grew In Learning.
In his second year at Goldsboro,
1856 students enrolled in dramatics
art courses and Britton was forced
to drop four English courses he had
been teaching. Among the flood of
new drama students were athletes
who only year before wouldn't
have been caught dead" on a stage.
But the students quickly learned
that Britton's conception of drama
was more than acting. He required
them 10 read playwrirhts ranging
from Shakespeare to the contenl-
poraries Advanced students found
themselves writing original plays,
designing and assembling play set
and costumes, adapting musical
