GRAND JURY SAYS.
.cOURTRoO oOM DARE
NEARING DISGRA ACE

=
"In near disgraceful condi-
tion. . These words were used by
the Dare County Grand Jury to
describe the Dare Courtroom,
in it's report to Judge Henry
u. Stevens, Jr., on Thursday of
last week. .4 4
The report, which is one OF
the, required functions of all
Grand Juries in the state, gave
a complete rundown on condi-
!tions in public buildings s.
throughout the county. Almost
all received a clean bill of health
except the courtroom. In refer
ring to the judicial hall Grand
Jury declared: "The courtroom
was found to be in near dis
graceful condition." Painting,
general repairs, proper lighting
and new carpeting are needed"
The Grand Jury Report was
called to the attention of the
Dare County Commissioners this
week and several indicated that
they felt Something will be
done soon to correct the situa-
tion." Commissioner Lawrence
Swain expressed the opinion
that painting is definitely
needed" Swain also noted that
the charge of improper lighting
also seemed to be justified, Il
think these improvements should
be made, as rapidly as possible"
he added. Commissioner David
Stick and Swain indicated that
action will probably be taken"
on June IA to correct the situa-
tion.
Other county buildings re-
ceived relatively clean bill of
health in the report, with the
exception of the Roano Ike
School, where an urged need
'or classrooms was noted. The |
'eport stated that: "because of
he crowded conditions, students t
ire forced to use part of the
chool kitchen and lunchroom as v
j. classroom" The report also @
Indicated that restroom repairs
nd wall covering were needed +
t the colored school. Memcers |,
the board of commissioners
tated on Monday that "every c,
equest for school repairs for the II
asst 8 or a years has been ap- m
roved." Chairman Stick has %
,ated that the matter will be h,
,ferred to the board of educa-
on for it's examination. o,

tion, according to the report.

BACK TO THE SOUTH
FOR JOHN KENNEDYS

Mr.. and Mrs. John Kennedy
formerly of Manteo, are now
back in Raleigh, where Mr.. Ken
nedy has resumed his connec-
tions with the Raleigh city
parks. First leaving Manteo,
where Mr.. Kennedy was horti-
! culturist for the Roanoke Island
Gardens, and Mrs. Kennedy was
a member of the COASTLAND
TIMES staff, the couple (who
are British-born) worked in
Raleigh, then developed a hank
ering for a colder cline, and
when Mr.. Kennedy was offered
q place on the horticulture staff
of the University of Manitoba
in Winnipeg. Canada, they ac-
cepted the offer.
Ten months later, they are
glad to see some green, hear the
birds sing, and enjoy North
Carolina in general, as this ex-
cerpt from their letter will
show: ...

"We went through customs

WATER

used in any way one pleases
But the coliform bacteria, the
type most generally encountered
in the area, is another matter
One drop of water thus con-
taminated can be deadly, DR..
Johnston stressed.
COLONIZATION doesn't change
the salt content, but renders
water entirely safe, he said. The
check points will be maintained
until Labor Day.
Water Tanks Help
Of inestimable value to cot
tagers and others on the beach
have been the 10 water tanks set
up along the beach at intervals
of 2.6 miles. They are refilled
daily, and the water is of excel.
lent quality, health officials say.
They will be maintained until
Labor Day. The water is re-
newed daily.
DR.. Johnston issued an en-
phatic warning to cottagers
newly arriving at the beach.
"Don't use any water for drink
ing cooking, dish washing or
similar purposes unless it has
been checked, or has been boiled
10 mintues," he urged.
Water samples are checked
free of charge. To expedite the
checks, three new health depart
ment aides will begin work next
week. They are Henry Swiggett,
formerly with the Lenoir-Jones
Health Department and recently
at work on a research project at
the University of North Caro-
lima; L. L. Hammond, a teacher
in the Raleigh schools, and Paul
L. Burroughs of Raleigh, a
medical student at UNC.
Among major problems are
sand-filled septic tanks. These
may be contaminated, and
should be pumped out thorough
ly, DR.. Johnston said. Private
contractors are busy on this jot
throughout the area. Incidental
ly, contractor doing this work
must have a permit from the
Dare County Health Depart
ment.
One Check Not Enough
One check of the water ma!
not be enough. New contamina
tion can seep in, renewing the
danger. Periodic checks there
fore are important, health off
cials said. Water samples are
taken by the health department
on request, and findings report
ed as quickly as practicable. NJ
samples are taken on weekend'
after Thursday at A pm. Those
wishing checks should telephone
the Dare County Health Depart
ment at Manteo.
AS the present week drew to,
ward it's close, a backlog oi
about 100 water samples hat
piled up at the department. II
was expected that these woulo
be cleared up by early nexI
week.
The extent of the problem is
ascribed directly to the fact that
the beach area has no public
water system. Where there i:
such a system, as at Moreheac
City after a. storm a few years
ago and at Manteo in 1860, it il
necessary only to chlorinatt
the water.
In the Dare County program
water checks are made on a frs
come, first served basis. The
interval between test and report
is steadily being shortened a;
the work advances. In some ms
tances, cottagers and others
have had their water checked
elsewhere, notably in Elizabeth
City.

There's a lively contest go

torney General and Mrs. Rob-
ert Kennedy as to which Of
the couples seven young
sters will get to put the last
pin in the big map Of the
world on which they have
been charting their parents
trip around the world.
The map, which covers
most Of a wall-sized bulletin
board, bears a legend across
the top - installed by the
travel agency which pre-
sented the THE World

Each night, the child who
has behaved best that day
gets to put the newest pin in
place, where it is joined to
earlier pins by red yarn. BY
now, reports Miss Ann King,
the children's governess, the
map "looks like a chart of
Col. Glenn's flight"
The last pin goes up late
today, after word is received
that the Attorney General
and his wife have landed at
New York's Idlewild Airport.
The children themselves
decide the winner each day,

markable how many little
misdemeanors they recall,

Miss King reports.

markably fair" she added.

kidding for packing along his
own observation-disclosures and
apple pie-the other night to
the reopening of Mark Rus

The Congressman says the
three constituents with him
had an early appointment on
the Hill the next morning,
and didn't want to take time
for dinner before going to
the supper club, which serves
only drinks. Hence they
packed along their own
which they shared with Mr..
Russell.
The performer and Mr..
Ayres are old friends from
the days when Mr.. Russell
first appeared at the Carroll
Arms, where Mr.. Ayres then
lived.
II told him he had a good
act but he ought to quit
sitting with his back to the
audience. talking over his
shoulder" the Congressman
recalls.
"He said he couldn't help
it, because there was no back
