Well bo glad to oalL — County Native Is Featured In New Book Two natives of South Carolina who have made names for them selves in the literary world after migrating to North Carolina are included in a new book on writ ers, “Tar Heel Writers I know,” by Bernadette Hoyle, just pub lished. Walter Spearman, profes sor of journalism at the Univer sity of North Carolina, and Lod- wick Hartley, head of the Eng lish department, at North Caro lina State College, are among the 35 writers whose interviews and photographs appear in the vol ume. Spearman was born in New berry, and Hartley is a native of Batesburg. The book is a collection of in terviews with North Carolina authors and, with her pen and her camera, Mrs. Hoyle pictures these writers in delightfully informal surroundings. The interviews or iginally appeared as a series in the Raleigh News and Observer. Fortunately, those with Sam Byrd, James Street, and William T. Polk were completed shortly before their deaths. All the many Tar Heel writers could not possibly be included in the book. Mrs. Hoyle has ismply made informal visits with 35 of her friends and gives to the read er, not only biographical facts, but also some of these authors’ suggestions for beginning writ ers about working, methods, aims, and philosophies. The book will be a welcome ad dition to school and public libra ries and will be valuable for 1 study groups and book clubs and for anyone interested in writers and writing. It is interesting to note that the volume about Tar Heel writers is also published by a Tar Heel, John F. Blair, Pub lisher, 404 First National Bank Building, Winston-Salem, N. C. Price of the book is fouur dollars. The author, too, is a North Carolinian, having befen born in Henderson. Mrs. Hoyle, one of the state’s top-flight free-lance writers and pres^ photographers, is equally at home at a wreck, a murder trial, a hurricane, or a wedding. And she has a knack for interviewing people. She has cov ered events of national import ance, ranging from presidential campaigns to the “Miss Ameri ca” pageant in Atlantic City, and has interviewed and photo graphed numerous celebrities. Writers included in “Tar Heel Writers I Know” are LeGette Blythe, Zoe Kincaid Bockman, Barion Brown, Mebane Holoman Burgwyn, Sam Byrd, Ruth and Latrobe Carroll, Jonathan Dan iels, Burke Davis, Lambert Davis, Wilma Dykeman, Inglie Fletcher, Charlotte Hilton Green, Paul Mayor Havird Off To Greece Henry M.

Camellia Lovers Look For Flower Blight Cure •tS* g t 'XT* Officials of The Garden Club of South Carolina, South Carolina Nurserymen’s Association, and The South Carolina Camellia So ciety met Tuesday, June 19, at the Wade'Hampton Hotel, to for mulate plans for obtaining a plant pathologist to serve at Clemson College, who will devote full time research to the control of di seases and pests affecting flow ering shrubs and ornamentals. At the present time, Clemson College has no pathologist who can be assigned to this urgently needed project. Advice has been received, > however, that the pro posed budget for Clemson will contain a request for the neces ary funds. The Garden Club of South Carolina, the Nurserymen’s Association, and other State flow er societies, plan to coordinate their efforts in impressing upon the South Carolina Legislature the immediate need for favorable action on this budget item. Of particular interest to those present at the meeting were the facts presented by Mr. L. C. Wan- namaker, of Cheraw, pertaining to camellia flower blight which has recently been found in pri vate gardens in the state. There is no known cure or effective con trol for this disease at the pres ent time. Mr. Wannamaker point ed out that this disease had cost the West Coast camellia industry literally millions of dollars in re cent years. The nurseries of this state are very concerned over the situation as the spread of this disease into nurseries would prac tically eliminate the sales of ca mellias. It is hoped that research into this disease can develop a control or cure; however, this would be only one of many diseases to be studied. There are many diseases affecting all type of flowers and shrubs. It was also pointed out that the uncontrolled spread of these 4 diseases would seriously reduce bur visiting tourists, many of whom come to South Carolina for the express purpose of visit ing such places as Magnolia Gar dens, Middleton Gardens, etc. The state organizations have officially endorsed the program. All other state flower societies will be invited to join and assist in the promotion of the project. UTILE ITEMS OF INTEREST CONCERNING FOLKS YOU KNOW Dr. and Mrs. F. N. Martin and Mr. and Mrs. R. B.
