Says Music Business Not Peaches, Cream By GARY BOLEY "It's not all peaches and cream in the music business," said the little man the rock and roll fans call The Bouncing Cornell Blakely. "It's meant a lot of hard work to me." Mr. Blakely has toured the eastern part of the nation, walking the streets of Detroit and New York, promoting his shows. He has been in and out of Nash ville, the recording capitol of the world making rock and roll songs he hoped would someday hit the top. Records were recorded and released, and some showed signs of catching on in various parts of the nation.

And then came "I've Got That Feeling," his biggest hit. "I don't think there's any doubt about that being my best," the singer said, "but records aren't easily sold. They've got to have a lot of national backing, which that record didn have. In Greenville, the song was recorded on a survey of most popular tunes. Mr.

Blakely is a native of Greenville and was graduated from Sterling High School. At present, he is a disc jockey on a Travelers Rest radio station. Within two weeks he'll make another try at the recording business, releasing two songs written by another radio announcer, Don Duddley. "Rhythm and blues songs are my favorite type of music," he admitted. "But it's the easiest field to crash.

You just need one record to go all the way, and we hope one of these will be the one." While in school, Cornell was singing classical and semi-classical music to nearly anyone who would listen, but it wasn't the music profession that he first decided to pursue. Soon after graduation, he joined the old Brooklyn Dodgers at Vero Beach, Flai( in spring training and later play ed with other baseball clubs. "I later found out that it's music I really like," he added. "And that what it been for me ever since. Since last returning to Green ville, he has made numerous public appearances, promoting The Bouncing Cornell Blakely Show.

He is currently performing at The Club Jamarta, a local teen-age club. The music business can be rough at times," he concluded, but it the life I want. Bear Victim i BY NEWS STAFF WRITER WALHALLA About 25 Negro students are scheduled to transfer Friday back to predominantly White schools to which they were orginally assigned under Oconee County's "freedom of choice" desegregation plan. The county school board ordered the Negroes to return to the formerly all-White schools. Most of the Negroes failed to register at the schools after their parents applied for their assignment there.

Others registered, then returned voluntarily but unofficially to Negro schools after school opened Aug. 28. The board ruled that the stu dents must return to the schools to which they were orginally as signed at their own request so the county could comply with federal edicts. County Supt. of Education Fred P.

Hamilton told the Negro parents involved that the school district would like to al By LUCILLE B.

C. High winds, apparently from a tornado, ripped through a chair factory in Asheboro Thursday, killing one worker and injuring three others. Heavy winds, described as possible tornadoes, also caused heavy property damage at Ay-nor, Beaufort and Hilton Head, S.

but no one was reported injured. The one-story concrete block building that housed the Crickett Chair Co. plant was practically demolished. The roof was ripped off and one wall collapsed. Jesse Councilman, owner and operator of the small plant, said there were about 10 workers in the plant at the time.

"What saved the others from being injured or killed," he said, "was their diving under the frames of chairs and sofas" in the plant. Councilman described the windstorm this way: "There came a heavy rainstorm with a sudden wind that went 'swoosh' and that's all I remember." Clyde Whatley, about 60, of Rt. 5, Asheboro, was killed. He was buried under the wreckage. Glenn Mabe of Rt.

5, Asheboro, was admitted to Randolph County Hospital in Asheboro with leg and ankle injuries. Paul Green of Star and Albert Hamilton of Asheboro were treated at the hospital and released. The U.S. Weather Bureau reported a tornado just south of Asheboro at 1:15 p.m., about the time the storm hit the Crickett Chair Co. plant.

The storm was part of a squall line of thunderstorms that moved eastward across the state. Two cars parked near the plant were damaged by flying debris. A truck sitting next to the building also was overturned by the winds. The small chair company is located in an industrial park in the southern edge of Asheboro, a Randolph County town 24 miles south of Greensboro. Another windstorm struck Hilton Head, S.

about 3 a. Thursday and ripped the roofs from the plush William Hilton Inn and two nearby homes. An estimated 141 hotel guests apparently "slept right through it," according to a hotel employe. The storm scattered portions of the 250-foot hotel roof over a wide area. The top of a tall pine was sheared by one flying section of roof.

A possible tornado struck a residential area near Beaufort, S. about 3:25 a. causing damage in a 500-yard area. Two homes received roof and water damage. And at Ay nor, S.

another possible tornado damaged a dozen buildings and uprooted several trees about 6:05 a. m. Residents estimated damages at between $100,000 and $150,000. Dorothy Malone To Leave Hospital HOLLYWOOD (UPI) Dorothy Malone, the "Peyton Place" television star who almost lost her fight for life two weeks ago, is so improved that doctors announced Thursday she will be able to leave the hospital next week. Miss Malone, 40, an Academy Award winner for "Written On The Wind," was removed from the serious list Thursday.

Comet Expected To Give Bright Celestial Show NEW YORK (UPD A com-et just becoming visible to the naked eye is expected to provide "the most spectacular celestial show of the century" by Oct. 21, a noted astronomer reported Thursday. Dr. Thomas D. Nicholson, chairman of the Hayden Planetarium, said the Ikeya-Seki Comet, discovered Sept.

18, is similar to the Great Comet of 1882 which startled the world with its brilliance. Lt. Berry Has A Busy Day If Walt Alston thinks he has trouble with the Twins, he should talk to Lt. W. R.

Berry of the Greenville Police Department. Yesterday one of the men in his platoon was involved in a three-car accident resulting in the total loss of the police car. After investigating the accident, he was returning to headquarters when he spotted what looked like a driverless 1956 Chevrolet traveling at a high rate of speed. He pursued the car and finally noticed a small head barely clearing the back of the front seat. The closer he got, the faster the Chevrolet traveled.

The Chevrolet turned into Means Street and came to rest against a house, doing minor damage to the structure. While waiting for other officers to take charge of the four-foot, five-inch driver, he saw flames coming out of a house on St. John's Alley. After notifying the fire department, he proceeded to headquarters to complete a routine day, and arrived almost in time to take the stolen car report on the 1956 Chevrolet he bad apprehended. Sermons Now Are Hitting Harder CHICAGO (AP) An old-style sermon confined to the "spiritual realm" is giving way to a new kind of preaching which relates the gospel to specific issues, and thus disturbs many church members, a Methodist analysis reports.

The denomination's publication, Christian Advocate, says pastors in the past "developed an ability to sound practical without being specific," with the result that this "old-style sermon was assimilated without any real threat to existing patterns of life." But now, writes editor James M. Wall, pastors are pressing members to make concrete religious applications to national and community problems. "We are leaving the age of pious generalities. In the end the pain of particularity will be a joyful one." Great Amount Of TNT Stolen ABINGDON, Va. (UPI) -Enough dynamite to blow up a city block has been stolen from the State Highway Department powder magazine near here, the Washington County sheriff's office said Wednesday.

Stolen were 250 sticks of dy namite and exploder caps, valued at $839, officers said. low them to continue sending their children to the school they are now attending. But Hamilton, in a letter, said, "We have no choice except to ask you to send your child to the school where he was assigned." The superintendent pointed out that parents had a chance to make a choice before school opened and the board had approved all transfer applications without question. Transfer of the students was expected to create some problems for both students and teachers, school officials admitted, because the school year is well under way. Friday was chosen as the date for the move because it is the first day of the second six-week school term.

The Oconee board rejected federal appeals to reopen the registration period after school had opened. The Oconee civil rights compliance plan won belated approval earlier this week. Peggy Wilhelmsen, Greenville High School, secretary; Jean Black well, Carolina High School, historian, and Judy Edwards, Spartanburg High School, editor and promotion manager.
