Harstine Island:
Safe and sound Fourth find, l
folks tailing parade marsh ,
By JOHN COOPER
The celebration of the Fourth of
July has for many years been asso-
ciated with pyrotechnics and Hart-
stene Pointe has saluted Ameri-
can independence with a safe and
sound fireworks display. Under-
lying the success of these yearly
events are the facts that a number
of resident families supply the fire-
crackers, pinwheels and aerial dis-
plays and set them off under prop-
erly controlled conditions.
Pointe manager Bob Rahourn
reports that the arrangement
worked well, once again. All those
who lined up all along the spit
at the northern tip of the island
to discharge fireworks and those
spectators who gathered to enjoy
the display suffered no injuries.
The area was well supervised and
patrolled by Pointe staff and two
sheriffs deputies.
Jan Avery, the Pointe's security
officer, reiterated the good news
that the celebration was a safe and
sound happening for all. She did re-
port a momentary occurrence that
required action. The large root ball
on one of the many driftwood trees
that are on the beach at the spit
became ignited but the fire was
quickly and easily extinguished.
For your correspondent, the
holiday began at 10:45 a.m. on the
morning of the Fourth when a fire-
cracker red 1957 Porsche convert-
ible with the top down arrived at
my doorstep. Seated at the wheel
of the beautifully restored vehicle
was its owner, Hy Visse, an island
resident and grand chauffer-in-
chief for the annual Fourth of July
parade.
IN BACK, BEHIND the front
bucket seats, were Hy's grandchil-
dren, Harry and Hannah, standing
on either side of a sign garnished
with small U.S. flags which they
held aloft. The words on the sign
announced "John Cooper, Grand
Marshall." I put on my grandfa-
ther's high silk hat and eased my-
self into the low-slung seat beside
the others.
The staging area for the pa-
rade was at the Pointe clubhouse.
Leading off was the prize-winning
decorated golf cart, followed by
the flag bearers. Our conveyance
was next in line, and its speed was
controlled by the marching pace of
the bearers of the red, white and
blue and the state flag. That kept
Hy busy manipulating the gears,
for the Porsche seemed too long for
greater speed. The decorated bicy-
cles behind us finally broke ranks
and were quickly all around us,
presenting another challenge to Hy
Visse's driving skill. Fortunately
no darting, two-wheel targets were
hit, keeping this phase of the holi-
day celebration safe if not as sound
as might have been desired.
Spectators lined the roadways
on both sides of the line of march
to greet us and we them. Harry
and Hannah emptied two big bags
of wrapped candies by tossing the
contents to surprised watchers, an
innovation introduced this year.
Yours truly had a great time
pretending to be some kind of a ce-
lebrity. I thank those who selected
me for this honor and extend ap-
preciation to Hy Visse for keeping
us all safe and sound.
THE WHOLE OF Harstine
Island seems to have celebrated
the historic day safely and sanely.
Lieutenant Nick Neuerburg of Ma-
son County Fire District 5 said: "It
was quiet on the Fourth. In fact,
nothing occurred over the weekend
prior to the holiday nor the week-
end following it. It did seem pret-
ty loud and noisy on the Fourth,
but everyone was careful and we
weren't called out to any fireworks-
related fires or injuries."
Always eager to remind island-
ers continually to be vigilant,
Neuerburg emphasized that hot
days lie ahead. The danger of fire
in the woodlands will be height-
ened so extreme care is essential
in outdoor burning.
Perhaps, you have noticed the
growing piles of nicely split fire-
wood at Station 7 on Pickering
Road. The firefighters association
Special needs children can camp for free
A Gii for Special Children will

will be raffling off four separate
cords of that wood and a $1 dona-
tion buys a chance to win in the
drawing for each cord. Raffle tick-
ets will be available at the Har-
stine Island Farmers' Market and
Jarrell's Cove Marina. Tickets also
will be available at Allyn Days and
the Labor Day breakfast at the
Spencer Lake Fire Station. Pro-
ceeds will go to the Station 7 train-
ing facility. District 5's new tender,
which when needed would be used
to fight fires on Harstine Island, is
now stationed close by at Spencer
Lake and is fully operational.
Dave Rolfs, secretary of the
Harstine Island Grange, informed
us that the organization recently
bestowed a community leadership
award and the Grange Member
of the Year award on Hugo "Bud"
Glaser. At the same time Grace
Latimer was honored for her 50
years of service as a grange mem-
ber and leader.
MR. GLASER recently donated
more than $1,000 to the Harstine
Island Grange, revenue gener-
ated by his sale of the recycled
aluminum he has c511ected. His
donation will be shared by the
grange with numerous other orga-
nizations: Fire District 5, Cub and
Boy scouts, Harstine Island Com-
munity Club, Pickering Kiwanis,
Pioneer School, Island Firefighters
and the Harstine Island Women's
Club Children's Carnival.
Besides thanking Glaser for his
generosity, the grange extended
thanks to Charles Isaacson for
the use of his truck to transport
the aluminum and Neuerburg for
loading and driving the vehicle.
Glaser continues .to collect alu-
minum cans and aluminum scrap
and would appreciate a call from
anyone who has such available for
donation. He is also willing and
ready to talk to anyone interested
in grange activities and member-
ship.
Is my Old Farmer's Almanac on
the mark or way off somewhere in
left field? Two weeks ago I wrote
that the publication predicted for
our area that the average tempera-
ture for July would be 63 degrees,
slightly below our usual average
for the month, and that precipi-
tation would be a degree slightly
above the average. Well, guess we
will have to wait until the month
is over before we can find out what
the average temperature for July
will be. In the meantime have you
noticed that we have had a few hot
days recently?
THANKFULLY, THE tem-
perature has dropped significantly
at night for cool slumber. Those
cooler nighttime hours figure in
computing an average. Your corre-
spondent hopes that those island-
ers who habitually keep records of
the weather will let us know what
the score turns out to be when the
days of July have passed. Let me
know so I can share your findings
with those who read this column.
July is a month that usually
comes up with some weather sur-
prises. It was 94 years ago this
month that the hottest tempera-
ture recorded in the U.S. was 134
degrees in Death Valley, Califor-
nia. A few years later, on July 6,
1928, a heavy hailstorm hit Potter,
Nebraska, during which the larg-
est icy sphere to fall was weighed
at one and a half pounds and mea-
sured 17 inches in circumference.
The only surprise that we can
report for Harstine Island in July
is that the sewing group is not
meeting this month but will re-
sume activities in August.
When someone says, "Pulled
pork!" to a person born and bred in
North Carolina that would mean,
"It's barbecue time!" Such a person
hailing from below the Masol
on Line might tell you that "p
pork is the oldest type of Ame
barbecue."
THERE IS A differen¢
opinion, however, as to just i
part of the hog is best to barl
North Carolinians from the l
ern part of the state would sal
whole pig should be cooked o
spit. On the other hand, peopl
ing in the central or western
of the state recommend bark
ing pork shoulder, also knoV
Boston butt.
Traditionalists believe the
cret to making pork so tender
it can be torn apart with tb
gers is slow cooking of up to
16 hours as it is smoked o
hickory fire. Eastern residen
joy a thin, piquant, vinegar-b
barbecue sauce, and those
farther inland like to add tom
to the sauce. !
I wager that the LaJune I
nior Lunch crew did not go
hog when they chose pulled
for the menu on Wednesday,
18. Also, I would bet they fou
quicker way than 12 to 16 hou
cooking to render the pork te
and pullable. Thirdly, it's a
bet to say that, if you come
"Alabam' or Tennessee or
line" or anywhere else in t]
great United States that you'll

sandwich with a spinach
