Louie BeaIl Nichols made a
most interesting presentation
at the Rotary Club meeting
Tuesday. He showed slides OF
most of Lexington's newer
facilities, businesses a q
homes and explained very
clearly that our town is not
growing stale"
1t was most impressive TO
me as a newcomer and qllte
enlightening to some OF the
old-timers. Louie Beall has
something there that every
citizen of Lexington should
see, especially some of those
who complain of no progress.
At the meeting there was
some comment of a local mer-
chant who said last week that
the square has he chick
look with the Christmas lights
still up. Lets not criticize
him too severely for his words
are not being taken too serl-
ously. The lights are still
there, January "a, 1868.

Winters worst blow
hits Holmes County
Sleet> snow
bitter cold
slows activity

Winters hardest blast OF
the year swept down on
Holmes County Wednesday
morning, Gripping business
and closing schools and other
public facilities. Early indl-
c tons were that a blanket
of snow and sleet would cover
Gh,e area within hours, but
Wednesday afternoon found
dwindling snowflakes glitter
ing in the sunshine, but icy
winds drove most citizens in
side for cover.
Early Wednesday the Mis-
sissippi State Highway Patrol
called for a showdown of traf-
fic on the highways and re-
uuested everyone to limit
their driving to only neces-
sary trips due to icy roads
and bridges.
Schools Closed
All schools in the county
were closed by noon. Tchula
schools called off their days
activities before getting I'M
derWay and Lexington schools
closed only a few minutes
after opening classes at eight.
At Goodman, HAHS dismiS-
sed classes at noon but the
junior college remained in
session.
Most factories over the
county remained on regular
schedule but with a reduced
force. Talon in Durant was re-
ported operating at full ca
pacity except for a few en-
ployees living out of town.
| Durant Sportswear reported
| about 200 out with so working
and expected to continue. Lex
ington Industries kept up a
normal operation but employ
ees living out of town were
| excused due to hazardous
road conditions.
Warning Issued
The u. S. Weather Bureau
warned Wednesday morning
of a hard freeze as far south
as the Gulf Coast with tenn
peratures dropping to zero in
some sections of the state.
Even worse news, though,
was the report that a high
pressure ridge in from the
West Coast, which is blamed
for the unusually cold wea-
Their, shows no sign of moving
on. The long range weather
forecast calls for continued
below normal temperatures
through February 5.
A slight warming trend for
Friday and possibly Saturday
is the only bright spot TO-
fered by weather forecasters
who predict more near-Zero
readings for Saturday night
and Sunday, giving no indica-
ton of when to expect a gen.
eral return to normal temper
atures for this area
In light of the predictions,
school heads are unable to
predict when weather and
road conditions will permit
normal operation of their
schools. NON announcements
are being made except day
by day as actual conditions
are known.

-Four Negroes
Are Arrested
AT Charleston

CHARLESTON, s. c.. July 20
(AP).-Three Negro ministers
and a Negro woman were ar
rested today as Charleston
Negroes continued their anti
segregation demonstrations in
the heart Of the ity.
Those arrested included Mrs.
Wilhelmina Can't, the mother
of Harvey B. CAN'T, the
Charleston Negro student who
was enrolled at Clemson Col
lege under q Federal court order
last January.
Also arrested was the Rev.
B. j. Glover, one of the prin-
cipal leaders in the desegrega-
ton drive here.
Ordered to Halt Singing
All were charged with traffic
violations during a march by
about ITS Negroes through the
downtown area. They were
taken to the Municipal Sta
dunn, where detention facilities
were set up recently to provide
quarters in the event of mass
arrests.
The Negro demonstrators had
marched in silence after being
ordered by Police Chief William
F. Kelly to halt the singing
of hymns and freedom" songs
while walking in groups on the
streets.
After being Silenced. the
archers confined themselves to
pointing accusing fingers when
they passed other Negroes who
they thought might be shop

gets of a "selective buying"
campaign.
Two Conferences Held
Both Negro and white lead
ers said two bi-racial confer
ences held Friday by Mayor
j. Palmer Gaillard had proven
helpful, although no settle
ment was reached. The Mayor
is to meet with Negro leaders
again Tuesday.
Officials of the Charleston
movement said, however, that
demonstration marches will
continue until definite steps are
taken toward meeting a 10
point program calling for
desegregation of stores and
restaurants and the hiring of
Negro clerical help.
Mr.. Glover said he was dis
appointed but not discouraged
because more Negroes did not
take part in today's demons
tration. AS in the past. most
of the demonstrators were teen
ayers or younger.

FISH AND GAME BOARD ADOPTS
 BEAVER REGULATIONS FOR 1863

The 1863 beaver trapping regulations are now being dis trlbuted throughout the State, the Department of Fish n d Game has announced. Copies of the announcements, listing sea- sons and bag limits, passed by the Board of Fish and Game in Cordova earlier thi month, will shortly be available from licensing officers and at De- partment of Fish and G a m e offices.
 According to Division of Game director J m es w. Brooks, the new seasons a n d bag limits include few changes from the 1862 regulations in spite of a harvest of only about 15,000 beaver in 1862 compared to some 24,000 in 1861. T h e beaver is the most intensely managed of all the States fur animals, he pointed out, Il d the size, approximate age, and location of every beaver is known to Division of Game bi- ologists.
 As a result of having this in- formation available through a beaver pelt sealing program, the Division of Game was able to determine that the lowered harvest of beaver in 1862 was a result of lower trapping pressure rather than a lack of

Whaling Industry Basis For |" Moby Dick" Performance

Moby Dick, Americas mythology, it's epic, it's drama; written when whaling was the nations greatest industry, was as important to the early economy as gasoline and oil are today.
 There can be no greater combat than with the sperm whale which lives on giant squid and can dive where bell or diver cannot plunge. The largest whale, from 85 to 90 feet in length and 40 feet in cir conference, will weigh 90 tons. The tail alone would exceed 20 feet across at it's widest dimension and is over 50 feet from its root to its tip.
 Back in the days when Ameri- cans made whaling our greatest in

Editors Note: The following story appeared in the Friday, Feb. 15, edition of the Seattle POst-Intelligencer about an epi- sOde between David Sundberg, son of MT. and Mrs. Gene Sund. berg of Kodiak and Eff, gorilla at the Seattle zoo.
 According to their father, Gene, who works at Kraft's Super-Market in Kodiak, the val. entine was the brain. child of two of the Sundberg's youngsters, Phil s, first grader, and David, !, a second grader at St. Mary's school here.
 Of all the sights the youngsters saw on the trip, the two g0rillas, BObO and Eff, were the ones the two lads talked about on their re- turn home, according to Gene.
 One Valentine said "YOu bowl me Overw and the other said You're cute number!"
 He just looked at his Valentine. But she reached up and touched hers.
 It was Valentines Day at the Woodland Park Zoo yesterday and because a 7-year-old boy from Ko- diak, Alaska, had such a good time at the zoo at Christmas time, there were real Valentines for two of the zoos inhabitants.
 The cuddly tiger cub? The polar bears? The elephants? The bears?
 NOPE! They were for the zoos well-known gorillas, Bobo and Eff!
 The Valentines came from David Sundberg, son of MT. and Mrs. Gene Sundberg. The Sundbergs came outside" for a months trip and David said he enjoyed the zoo more than Disneyland and the monorail.

J. J. Pernal, 1118 w. Howe St., was David's guide at the zoo. Mrs. Pernal and Mrs. Sundberg are cou- sins.
 David remembered the zoo tr:p when he got home-and remem- bered especially Bobo and Eff. So he sent the Valentines for Bobo and Eff to Mrs. Pernal for forward ing to them at the ZOO. With the Valentines was a letter from Da- vid:
 VALENTINE CARD
 Dear Bobo and FeFe Che spelled it the way it sounded): How are you and how is your country?"
 Frank Vincenzi, zoo superin- tendent, and Pat Pichette, Bobo and Fifi's keeper, delivered the Valentines personally. With Bobo and Eff confined to small rooms alongside their "playroom," the two men taped the Valentines to the inside of the thick glass win dows. Then from outside, they let Bobo into the big room.
 The 51O-pound, 11-year-old goril- la, ugly as a mud fence but hand some as gorillas go, raced back and forth across the room, beat his chest (he's beaten off all the hair on his chest), swung on pipe, sat in a corner, scratched himself. Every time he passed the Valen- tines taped to the glass he looked at them. But he wouldn't stand up and touch them.
 Then they let Eff into the room. Just like woman, she was curious. It didn't take her long to stand up and take a good look at both the Valentines. Then she touched hers.
 Well, she appreciates it, even if the old ham, Bobo, doesn't," Pat said.

Who's your favorite bowler?
I'll bet you have consciously

of your game after his. And
that can hurt your scoring. Be-
cause what can be a natural
style for one bowler may ruin
another one.
Don Carter, for instance, is
an all-time great. Yet, Don
doesn't recommend that bowl
ers initiate his very short back
swing. Don doesn't straighten
out his arm in the backswing
either. as you can see.
This style is natural and
highly successful for Don, but
it might prove difficult for an
