SIDEWHEELER MAKES EXCURSION RUNS _. . It’s A Sealed-Down Version of Old Mississippi River Boat THE REAL ROBERT E. Lee’s stack# beiched black smoke and ash, and the pili'ars smoke and ash, and the pillars of riverboating. People looked for them on the Mississippi in 1870 when the eyes of a na- tion, looking West toward America’s last great uncom- plicated adventure after an ex- hausting civil war, paused for a moment in New Orleans to see the greatest riverboat race of them all —<that between the Lee and the Natchez. In Lake Norman's version, the stacks are used as ven- tilating shafts for lavatories. “Tt just worked out that way.” Grier says. “We've been try- ing to get smoke by burning rubber or something, but it’s too messy.” ee riverboat gambler weuld be caught handing balleons to youngsters? / (Gamblers_now are forced to operate in less public places, shsinthe is outlawed in most countries except Argentina and most of the Cincinnati Kids are in jail. On weekend moonlight cruises, however, you can bring your own liquor aboard Lee Jr. Alcohol is taboo during scheduled unchartered d ay- light runs because of chil- dren.) LEE JR. has some features, however, that were unheard of in the genuine article. Its bilge is packed with enough Styro- foam to float its 36-ton weight, and there are enougn kapok- filled lifejackets for 175 peo- ple. (The ship holds 150). Capt. John Cannon, Lee Sr.’s fiery skipper, would have fit On ~ hot dog aboard the Lee, but shuddered at the thought, but there are a record player /and an AM-FM radio in the pilot's cabin. You can get a Coke and anything more elaborate has to he brought abeard. But there is enough left of the Lee's image after mod- ern society's mores, morals, tastes and laws get through with it to make it amusing. Grier (and the Chamber of Commerce) figure there are two million people within a 75-mile radius of the river- hoat’s landing at U.S, 21 and the lake, and, at this time of year, most of those people are hot. The cooling ‘ride lasts an hour, takes passengers to Cow- an’s Ford Dam and back and costs $1.55 for adults and 50 cents for children. Moonlight cruises on Saturday are $5 per couple, “GRIER And his. long-tinat friend and chief backer, R. A. (Fred) Hedrick, a blind States- @ ville lawyer, say they've got a good thing going, and they want to keep it that way. Amusement ideas come and go, and a lot of money sometimes , goes with them, Uppermost in Grier’s mind is Charlotte's Lit- tle Dodge City, a financial and amusement failure based ong popularity at the time for a television program. “We're shooting here for re- peat business and tourist busi- ness,” Grier says. “We don't want to make this a@ one- shot thing; we want people ta come back. We want people ‘| remember it.” To encourage repeat bust- ness, charter trips have been arranged. They average $100 for parties under 50, and some of them have heen scheduled through the 1965 season.

It prompt- ly fell to 18 cents. Some prices have gone up. A pilot's complained of of socks laundered and some ladies from Montreal were charging $800 for their com- pany compared to the prime rate of $10. HUSBANDS LEFT their wives to watch the ticker while they worked, with orders to phone them any developments. Buy and sell orders fell in a blizzard on the brokerage counters so that it was hours before you knew what you'd bought or sold for — hours in which the stock may have fall- en to only a fraction of its earlier value. Business was al- most stalled. Shoppers were watching the tickers — and so ‘were the nierchants. Things are quieter now. If you get in early there are chairs available. The steadies, some of whom bring their lunch, stare without expres- sion at the tape, keeping tabs on stocks that might rise or fall 10 cr 15 per cent in value between the time you can light a cigarette and later grind the stub out on the floor.

I’m enjoying this.’’ Down at the mine office recorder C. D. Egerton has hired eight extra people to file some 11,000 claims sub- mitted since April 1, Last year he filed 1,900. The rush was so fantastic people hired helicopters to fly them into the swamp bush— locally known as Moose Pas- ture — to stake claims and then fly them back to the re corder’s office. Some staking is done by low flying planes with very sensitive electronic equib- ment that picks up abnormali- ties in the earth's magnetic field. Maybe one such abnorm- ality in 1,000 is worth putting a ground crew in to test drill — and the planes cost up to $30 a mile.

A pre-print or SpectoColor ad is one that uses fine rotogravure full-color printing. After the ad is printed the paper is re-rolled so it can be run through the newspaper presses.

Briggs, chairman of the Madison County Republican Executive Committee, who said he was still not satisfied with the board’s action. It was Briggs who first ac cused the county board of im- properly selecting its precinct | workers and further charged he was barred from the meeting at which the workers were select- ed and therefore prevented from making recommendations. After Friday night's action, Briggs said he “still emphatic- ally objected’’ to the board’s re- fusal te- appoint any of those persons he recommended Joslin had said earlier it was “universal practice in North | Carolina for the county boards of elections to follow the rec- emmendations of both the| Democratic and Republican ehairman for precinct officers.

Lee Riverboat MOORESVILLE — A scale replica of the famous Robert E. Lee Riverboat now is in op- eration on Lake Norman with- in sight of US 21 between Mooresville and Davidson. The riverboat was compieted @ April 15, meeting & dead- line set nine months earlier. The new Robert E. Lee has an overall length of 84 feet, a beam amidships of 27 feet, six inches and a gross weight of 98 tons. She is powered by a diesel engine and driven by two side paddlewheels. Under normal conditions, the riverboat has a speed of 10 knots and a cruising range which is unlimited. Because of her flat-bottom construction, her weight carry- ing capacity seems almost un- limited. Where the hold of the original Robert E. Lee was used to carry freight and the ship's driving mechanisms, the new riverboat hold. is filled with that product of modern science, styrofoam, an unusual feature which makes this mod- ern-day riverboat virtually un- sinkabie % The riverboat is equipped from stem te stern with all of the latest safety .quipment. tt has a bow-deck of 371 square feet of open area, a master galon of 7 square feet of ca- bin area, a port stateroom with 112 square feet of cabin area, after-wheel decks ‘port and starboard) with 128 square feet of cabin area along with port and starboard heads. On board are a United States Coast Guard licensed captain, two deck hands, a concession operator, 8 ship-to-shore radio, prevention and “fire . fighting equipment. In addition the ship’s ac- commodations already listed, the riverboat operates from an expansive dock in the form of a “U." On the dock is locat- ed a restaurast, appropriately ealled “The Galley,” under the proprieforship of D. W. Scott of Mooresville, The restaurant is open daily and serves food to many sig@iseers and tour- ists. The new ‘Late Norman Rob- ert E. Lee ig owned by Rob- ert E. Lee Enterprises, Inc., which is headed ~by L. B. Grier, president; R. A. Hed- rick, vice pregident; and Mrs. WwW. A. Semple, Jr., secretary and treasurer, The three offic- ers are all from Statesville. Excursions for the general public are being run each weekend, and the riverboat is available ‘or special charter to church groups, civic groups, business clubs, social or busi- ness fraternities or sororities, or any person, firm or corpor- ation that wishes to avail themselves of the new and unique recreational facility on Lake Norman. The riverpoat is simply the initial step in the overall pians of the Robert E. Lee Enter- prises. The corporation owns a five-acre island in Lake Nor- man which it plans to develop in conjunction with the present operation. The fact that the corporation is also owner of a S0-foot sail- ing sloop, and many flags beating the skull and cross- bones might be a hint as to future plas, The corporation fastest “ en the Mississippi, raced away in & shroud of black moke bound for St Loui M Fortunes | were wagered on the outcome of the race and after an almost prow-to-rpw- race at some points, ine Rob- e Norman Waiers By GEORGE POOLE Record & Landmark Bureau ert E Lee won establishing @ record which Is msurpassed it modern times The famous riverboat cam t was fin- ally stripped and sold to the Lake Rock, Mississippi and Texas Railroad to be used as s wharf boat tier fame and glory has been resurrected OY the birth of the new Robert BE.

Little did they know that 179 years later — in 1960 — another army of men would be busy at work in almost the exact same piace, trying to hold the river itself at bay But. that's\hat is happening, and the record of current efforts at Cowan's Ford will mean more to future Noria Carolina his- tory than the Revelutionary War _, skirmish that left American Gen William Davidson dead It’s a mammoth project, un dertaken by a vigorous firm that wiil tie a giant dam between ’ two counties af Cowan's Ford to make the biggest lake on the Ca tawba River Duke Power Company, devel opers of this final hydro-electric plant envisioned for its Catawba valley service area, has esti- i To Power Plant — Historic Site Being Remoulded For Dam mated total cost of the project al some $60 million. Already, hundreds of thousands of dollars have been spent in building a virtual community to support the undertaking until its target date completion in 1963. When that time comes, water from the historie Catawba wil! slowly be impounded to create mammoth Lake Norman with its broad effect on the economic and social life of Piedmont North Carolina, It will serve as a monument to a former Duke president, Nor- man A. Cocke, while crowning the firth’s hydre-electric devel- opment in the two Carolinas. A survey of progress this week revealed development of a vir- tual engineering - construction community slowly being carved out of a onetime wilderness where horses and buggies used to cress the Catawba, The site hums with activity while over 250 men work and plan for the ilth hydro-plant on the Duke Power chain Work thus far has~peen de- voted primarily to preparation 2 COWAN’S FORO DAM SITE — This view frem atop the coffer dam shows the area being cleared for the western side of Cowan’s Ford Dam. Butt of the dam on Lincoln side will be imbedded in the scooped out = for the dam construction itself Railroad sidings have been ex tended into the area while giant concrete mixing plants and rock crushing equipment tower to ward the sky. Not far from the dam site is Duke Power's large engineering office, with a bachelors’ bar- racks for Duke employes and a mess hall that will accomodate over 200 nearby Both rock and sand, compon ents of conerete to be used the dam, will come from the river bed. Also ready for use now are public observation posts on each side of the river and three giant towers from which movies wil! be made periodically during construction of the dam Miles of water lines and ser vice roads also are under con struction or ready for use as pre liminaries for concrete pouring operations expected to begin in September. Progress on the actual dam site, however, can be noted now —although prepartion has been the big thing. ar iREO, Hs eet na 2 se On the Lincoln aide, where work is now underway, workmen have struck bottem in a bed of hard rock that will serve as hase for the western- most end of Cowan's Ford dam A huge coffer darn has been completed that diverts the Ca tawba along a narrow channe! while work progresses for the generating plant on the Lincoln } sae County When the power production part of the hydro-plant is com- pleted, the river will onee more be diverted to permit work on the eastern end of the dam stretching out into the Catawba from Meecklenburg County, The two sections then will meet in the middie, the second coffer dam will be destroyed, and Cowan's Ford Dam will be in business In Charlotte,. someone will push a button to start the fourth pacity privately-owned hydroelectric plant in the United States, with a capacity of Ie00 kilowatts As an indication of magnitude, the combined generating capa- largest area where workmen have hit a selid = When Lincoln side of project is comploted, work will begin on the Mecklenburg side, een ea EE city of the er 10 dams on the Catawba River is 440,00 kile watts Cowan's Ford will be a mile long concrete and earth-fill dam creating a lake of some 33.000 acres and more shoreline-—seme 400 miles—than South Caroling has on the Atlantic Ocean Power, generated here will be delivered to Riverbend Steam Plant sub-station by 230,000+volt transmission lines and fed inte the company’s Balanced system While power production is the purpose behind the Cowan's Ford project, its development has led to speculation that Lake Norman itself could become the play: ground of Piedmont North Caro lina * .
