PAGE TWELVE VFW Meets Snag For War Memorial Members Say Coopera tion Lacking With Legion According to members of the local VFW Post, the organization has en countered a snag in the plans for the erection of a memorial honoring the J war dead of Edenton and Chowan | County. In February, 1950, William | H. Coffield, Jr., Post, 9280, Veterans of Foreign Wars began making plans for the erection of a beautiful monu ment on the Court House greens to honor the battle dead of World Wars I and 11. The cost of this erection would be approximately SISOO and the local Post has asked for the re lease of the Memorial Fund appro priated in 1944 by the County Com missioners and Town Council. This fund of SI,OOO plus interest is being held in trust at The Bank of Eden- ■ ton and the VF\y post has offered to take the obligation of paying the ; balance of the cost if this will be re- i leased for the purpose. 1 A letter of proclamation was read to the County Commissioners and the j Town Council asking for the release j of the memorial fund for the purpose ' of honoring the war dead with an i appropriate memorial. Both bodies < considered the request and advised the ( local post to contact the other vet- ] crans organization in Edenton and de- i ciae on the type of memorial wanted, < then both organiaztions appear before them for the official release of the fund. A committee of VFW members have on two occasions contacted the other veterans organiation but cannot get any assistance or cooperation. It was announced after the VFW meeting Tuesday night that the local ’ post has not given up on their pro- ‘ ject. However, if some interest and ' cooperation is not shown by other or ganizations in the near future the VFW will be forced to alter their ( plans. This group of boys are the ones who 1 saw dead heroes fall. They know, as ' only they can know, why their fallen ' comrades should be honored; and it was announced b the VFW memorial J committee that these boys will have a memorial of some type if the Wil- . liam H. Coffield, Jr., Post, 9280, has to hand carve a monument of wood. The local post asks the public this ! question? “Do you want to honor 1 the boys who honored you enough to pay the supreme price for our free- , dom, your happiness, your peace, your ‘ life,- or would- ou like to see us drop our plans ?” ' The post has no intention of drop ping its memorial plans and VFW 1 members are still begging for coopera- * tion in the erection for those who gave so much for so many but have been remembered by so few. Correspondence and cooperation on 1 this matter will be greatly appreciated by William H. Coffield, Jr,, Post, I 9280, Veterans of Foreign Wars, Edenton, N. C.

The game developed into a i mound duel between Jobey Griffin for i the Colonials and Carratt for the ' Rams. Griffin allowed only six hits during the 11 innings, while the Co- 1 lonials collected eight safe bingles off Carratt’s offerings.

I F=? • U.S. ' ' 301 248 ~ 228 : f' f J- 4 < - i ————————— ——4 ; One of the many reasons why North I Carolina needs more improved pasture and more livestock on its farms is that • consumption of livestock products in t the State falls far short of what nu tritionists recommend for good health, I says D. W. Colvard, head of the Ani mal Industry Department of the North , Carolina Experiment Station. The State would need half again as . much milk if its citizens consumed j the amount of milk and dairy pro- 1 ducts recommended by nutritionists, says Colvard. They recommend 391 • quarts of milk or its equivalent in] dairy products per person annually. I The average person in the United j States consumes 284 quarts, but the average in North Carolina is only 228 quarts. Fluid milk was once a classic ex ample of North Carolina’s livestock deficiency. During the past 10 years, 1 local Grade A production has equalled or exceeded the demand during the summer of “flush milk” season. How | WHO KHOWS | 1.
