The community of Richey is
boasting a new school building
and a Community Park.
The new school is expected
to be ready for occupancy in
about six weeks.
About three years ago Mrs.
Edna Yeo organized a Boost
er's Club composed of ladies
of the Richey community to
decide what could be done to
improve the city. The first
project was the park. The peo-
pile of Richey and businessmen
have helped in every way pos
Sible to make this project a
reality.
The main shelter and build
ingS have been donated. A
horseshoe court was made and
money was raised to buy
power mower. Much of the

credit for the work on this
project goes to Mrs. Yeo and
her mother, Mrs. j. P. Graber.
They handicapped the park and
personally planted most of the
flowers, and are the main care
takers. About 300 trees and
bushes have been planted.
The park was dedicated July
%, 1861, the year that it was
organized. The name was cho-
sen by an open name contest.
Of the many submitted the one
selected was "The Richey Com
munity Park" Janice Gibson
and Shawn Carlson were the
lucky winners of the name con-
test.
The park has been used by
tourists, picnickerS and last
year three of the local churches

Gov. Sanford on the political
picture recently? mo, the Gov
ernor hasn't been around in a
couple of months.
II don't think Lakes got a
chance against Bennett, Preyer
or Pearsall. The cities will make
the difference. Oh, the County
may go for Lake, and you can't
say which one'll elect the man,
but / think the County would
swing behind Bennett pretty
good. These fellows you talked
to out in the County, l know
them, and a lot of them were
just pulling your leg. They went
for Scott and Hodges and Sam
ford, and ! don't see any reason
why they won't go for Bennett.
They may tell you one thing and
then say something else again
when they get in that BOOTH
What did Mr.. Snipes see as the
big issues Of the next election?
ITS hard to say. / don't think
this race question will m axe
any difference. / think the coun-
try people are more for equality
than a lot Of small towns. Most
of them are for equality, they
like to see everybody get a bet
ter education, and a better Job.
Most of my customers that
] talk to are against Lake, and
most would support Bennett,
Pearsall or Judge Preyer. 1
heard a lot about DR.. Henry
Jordan two months ago. Diff
ferent ones were mentioning him,
but right now it's quieted down,
partly because his name had
come up before other elections,
but it comes up and then it's
dropped. | don't know, he just
doesn't seem to get much at
tention right now. .
What about the communist
speaker law? Il don't think
people are going to pay much
attention to it."
What effect will the national
administration have on local poll
tics? Il think the President is
still popular. His brother Bobby
is not, but he's just carrying out
the Supreme Court ruling. He'll
cost the Democrats some votes,
but not many"
What of Republican chances in
the State? They tell me this

ed "an amazing dissatisfaction
with the Kennedy Administration
and a surprising amount Of dis
satisfaction directed against San
ford" He predicted that more
of the young disaffected are go
ing to be welding influence and
participating in politics before
the 1854 elections.
What about the potency Of the
communist speaker law as an is
sue? 1T won't be big issue,
but it will be an issue. 1t ought
to be repealed. If it becomes
an issue in the campaign any
candidate who speaks against it
will be doing himself a disService,
but the rest of the State a very
great service"
Mr.. Winston admitted to some
perplexity at the number of po-
tential candidates. He is in
charge of the program for the
Young Democratic Clubs annual
fall rally, and he has been try
ing to invite all of the prospec-
tive candidates to the affair. So
far Bennett, Jordan and Pear
sail have tentatively accepted.
DR.. Lake has another engage
ment. Plans are under way to
invite Judges Dan X. Mo0re and
j. Richardson Preyer. IF any
more announce we won't have
enough food to feed the candid
ates," Mr.. Winston said.
Tom Scism, a University grad
uate student in Political Science
who has at times been active in
local integration efforts, echoed
Mr.. WinSton's aversion to DR..
Lake.
Under no circumstances would
] vote for |. Beverly Lake" he
said. I'D vote for Preyer or
Jonas first. just don't know
Bert Bennett to tell the truth"
What did he see as the major
issue in State politics next year?
The racial situation. | hope it
will not be an issue, and | hope
Lake doesn't get the nomination,
because he's a racist. | think
North Carolina has escaped the
violence of Mississippi and Ala
bama because it hasn't elevated
demagogueS to power. For that
reason | hope the demagogues
and extremists can be kept out of
power, and that it won't become
necessary for the Federal gov

and l don't think he'd want to
take a chance on running for
Governor and losing that"
Mr.. SnipeS'S sentiments are not
entirely shared by his fellow bar
bers and his customers, but the
shop has served for years as an
informal debating union. Mr..
Snipes's partner, T. M. Green,
a rock-ribbed Republican, has re-
tired, and with his retirement
perished an argument that ran
for decades. People used to
come in here and egg us on just
to see the show, and finally it
got to the point where we'd start
in just to amuse them," Mr..
Snipes recalled.
Not all barbershops are polite
al. The tone of q barbershop
depends on its BARRIERS. The bar
erS in the Tar Heel in Amber AL
ley are, in many cases, hardly
older than University Undergrad
yates. As a result, the Tar Heel
Barbershop is not political.

said Eddie Goddard. Il heard
a man talking about Hodges the
other day. but that's ALL"
when the students are here
we talk about school, said
George Ballou. Lately we've
been talking about the Rathskel-
Ter fire"
Attorney Barry Winston, a
prime functionary in the County
Young Democratic Club, express
ed more alarm and less certainty
than Mr.. Snipes.
We're doing like everybody
else at the moment-Iying be-
hind a log waiting to see what
everybody else is going to de-"
BY his own description Mr..
Winston is a "wild-eyed moder-
ate." He is emphatically op-
posed to DR.. Lake. Il have three
children" he said, "all of whom
in the next five years will be
looking for a public school edu-
cation. want the schools to
be open when they're ready to
go.
"AS Of a week ago-from every
thing have heard-Bert Bennett
is the strongest contender" Mr..
Winston'S personal sympathies
lie with Judge Preyer. "I'd like
to see him seek the nomination
and I'd campaign for him"

have a Republican Governor. If
Bennett is nominated and Jonas
runs, the Lake support will be
split down the middle"
Mr.. Winston also sees "a sig.

sibly to the Sixth District Con-
gressional seat held by Rep.
Horace FKornegay. ..FEi His recent
performance demonstrates his

What effect would national poll

complexion? Its already done

mighty tough for any man who

Within the County Mr.. Winston
also emissions a threat. "The
Democratic Party had better
start taking cognizance of the
local Republican threat: the time
has come when there is suffici-
ent disenchantment with the Ad-
miniStration among the rank and
file Democrats that we can't
count on Party loyalty to win
elections as in the old days. And,

and savvy OF some of the up

Chapel Hills politics are at the
moment like a half-cooked multi
gan stew. He who dips a tasting
spoon into the pot may come up
with the raw ingredients, but no
definite flavor.
In fact, Chapel Hill and even
Carrboro might be called polite
ally bewildered ~ in sharp con-
trast to rural Orange County,
which is conservative and vehe-
ment about it.
In Chapel Hill, opposition to |.
Beverly Lake is widespread, but
support for DR.. Lake cannot be
discounted. Actively committed
Democrats indicate they will hold
the Party line in the next elec-
tion. The University faculty, on
the other hand, appears prepar-
ed to go Republican en- masse
if DR.. Lake receives the Demo
cratic nomination.
Somewhat surprisingly, a large
segment of the Town seems to
feel that the logical opposition
to DR.. Lake is not liberal such
as former State Democratic
chairman Bert Bennett. Opinion
on Mr.. Bennett is either mixed
or nonexistent. Some sentiment
is apparent in favor Of such con-
Seryatiyes as Thomas j. Pear
sail, DR.. Henry Jordan, Judge

Charles R. Jonas.

The authority wanted the
announcement to say:
THE story you have Just
