SO S F o r H u b b a r d P a in t in g s A n d C h o r is te rs

In honor of Whitney M. Hubbard, the Red Group of the United Methodist Church of Green­port and the Stirling Historical Society are looking forward to presenting many of his paintings at an Exhibit on August 15, 16, and 17 at the United Methodist Church in Greenport. These paintings will all be owned by local people who knew and loved Mr. H ubbard-som e having been his pupils. This long deserved tribute will be to honor a truly great artist who was listed in “ W ho’s W ho,” was not born here but spent most of his life in the village, capturing through his paints and brush much of its beauty. We are interested in locating as many of his paintings as possible so if you have one or more that you would like to share with us, kindly contact Ruth

Corwin, 477-0184 or Winifred Brooks, 477-0328.

In conjunction with this tribute to Whitney Hubbard, one is also being planned to honor his wife, Ruth Langlois Hubbard. Ruth Hubbard was organist and choir director of the United Methodist Church in Green­port for many years, as well as a private piano and voice teacher. She was also organist for many years of the Paradise Woods Studio in

Southold. We are trying to locate all past members of her choirs so that on Friday, August 16, we will be able to do a musical program of music that we learned with her. Will all that ever sang with her please come forward and call Joyce Klipp, 477-1375 so that we might be able to honor this very talented lady.

More details for these occasions will follow.

Another satisfied vacationer to our shores opened a new business in Greenport and makes plans to settle his family within the locale. Such is the case of Billy Orr, formerly Vice President of Botany Industries, presently owner of The Clipper Mist and The Admiral’s Deck, Ltd.

Having two m en’s clothing stores with one owner located a scant two blocks from each other may seem a bit strange, but Bill Orr told us he is “ trying to create a coordinated look for a m an’s wardrobe.” The Clipper Mist, recently opened in Sterling Square, features casual sports and cruise wear for the young business­man. Catering to the more conserva­

tive. older businessman, The Ad­miral’s Dock. Ltd., had it’s grand opening on Main Street Friday evening. This new shop carries name brands such as Yaeger, Hathaway, Canterbury, Oleg Cassini, Marra­kech and Brentwood Sportswear.

After spending six years in the clothing industry and the past few years doing consulting work in the business, Mr. Orr is in a front seat position. He hails from Riverdale, just outside of New York City, and hopes to relocate his family in the area within a year. Owning several pieces of real estate locally, Mr. Orr will be on hand to service his customers with the exception of the

time he spends traveling to the city to do the buying for his two stores.

He enjoys his boat and some fishing in the waters off Orient in his free time. Asked why he settled in Greenport, he told us “ Greenport is a nice town, has a lot to offer and is growing; I’ve met some very nice and interesting people.”

In case shoppers have some difficulty finding The Admiral’s Deck, be advised it is situated next to

Cookery Dock. The new sign isn’t up yet, and Mr. Orr told us “ as soon as the sign painter gets to i t ,” its presence will be loud and clear. With sign or not, Billy Orr is open for business.

Duryea Tells Class Apathy Is EnemyAssembly Speaker Perry B.

Duryea (R-Montauk) speaking Sun­day at commencement exercises in Pierson High School in Sag Harbor, called the Class of ’74 the “ fortunate generation” because he said, “ you are the prime beneficiaries of an age when emphasis is being placed on improving our values, lifestyle and environment.”

“ That is the graduation present for the Class of ’ 74” , Duryea told the graduates. “ In essence you are entering a world overflowing with opportunities.”

“ I am confident,” he said “ it will be an exciting and productive tim e-w ith people dedicating their lives toward the betterment of their institutions, community and the world.

“ Often your parents and grand­parents tend to tip the cup of nostalgia while reflecting on the serenity, tranquility, simplicity and discipline that permeated their lives as they grew to maturity.

“ But your generation does not face the disruption of a great war or economic depression.

“ And as we approach the 21st century, we can look forward to a future of a peace, economic security and stability.”

Duryea pointed out that the world powers were in meaningful dialogue, adding.

"Ancl the same applies to our institutions in America. People are talking within the family, within the church and within centers of education.”

At the same time, Duryea warned that “ apathy, ignorance and cyncism are our worst enem ies.”

“ These are the detractors of our political environment,” Duryea said.

“ To insure continuation of a free society,” he said, “ it is dependent on you moving into the governmental process. Become active. Democracy is fueled and thrives on an informed public opinion.

“ And the most effective manner to

achieve your goals is to work within the established political processes-a system that will survive us all.

But Duryea told the graduates it means a “ dedicated effort on your par t.”

"That is an active, constructive role,” he said. "You must get involved and become participants in the democratic process.

“ It is you-who by participating in the political process can improve your personal exi^tence-and pre­serve our heritage and ideals.

“ More than ever we are under­going an awakening. Americans cannot, and should not, take government for granted. People, unfortunately, were lulled into thinking government worked on its own.

"It does not. It is directly dependent on participatory demo­cracy. And now that you have the franchise-to make your voices heard in the ballot boxes,” Duryea concluded, “ - d o so .”

"Ybu’ve always thoi g you wore a Good Now prove it.( M n U b . )
