we want to give students a
“Spring Break” that they will
long remember.”
An expected crowd of over
500 people, alone, will be
something to remember, but
the experiences that the
crowd will enjoy will be
tremendous.
Rock and Roll will be the
fare as the Union Pacific
Band brings explosive music
to the dance floor. Young and
old will be given the oppor
tunity to win prizes, while
they dance to the greatest
beat to hit Edenton in years.
Following the dance,
Virginia’s most sucessful
recording act, the Robbin
Thompson Band will thrill the
crowd with live renditions of
their hit album “Two B’s
Please,” Number 1 singles
“Candy Apple Red,” and
“Brite Eyes,” with new selec
tions from their forthcoming
album. Strong vocals,
flawless musicianship, action
packed stage presence, and
dynamite material are the
keys to the Robbin Thompson
Band’s powerful concert
presentation.
Jerry Parks, President of
the Chowan Edenton Optimist
Club stated, “This dance and
concert is our effort to fill the
void of things to do on Satur
day night. All the club

be working to make the even
ing a huge success. I hope that
our young people will come
out and enjoy themselves.”

Since its inception in 1919,
The American Legion has
taken an active interest in
foreign policy and national
security policy. Representing
over 2.6 million veterans
(45,000 in North Carolina)
who have personally ex
perienced the dangers and
horrors of warfare while
defending freedom during
periods of conflict, we seek a
world peace that is condusive
to justice, freedom and
democracy. We feel an im
mediate nuclear freeze would
be harmful to the U.S. na
tional security.
Delegates at the Fayet

meetings and seminars con

children and youth activities,
americanism and patriotic
programs, rehabilitation and

scale and pump used in trade
in the state. Every year, in
spectors from the weights and
measures section of the Con
sumer Standards Division of
the NCDA inspect every com
mercial measuring device for
accuracy. If the device passes
the test, it is sealed and the
stamp of approval applied. If
the device fails to pass the
strict requirements, it is re
jected and not released for
use until properly calibrated.
Spot checks are made from
time to time to insure that
once-passed devices still meet
specifications, and also field
inspectors from the NCDA
visit establishments to in
vestigate complaints on
suspected irregularites
reported by consumers. In
one such case, a lumberyard
in Mecklenburg County was
recently brought to court by
the NCDA for under paying
by paying for less wood than
they actually received.
The theme of National
Weights and Measures Week
is “Equity in the Market

Agriculture is committed to
making that theme a reality
in our state, so that both con
sumers and businesses will be
protected from erroneous
weights, and measures.

PIK Program
Continued From Page 2-A
“The payments-in-kind
under the PIK program will
be a partial substitute for the
commodities that would have
been produced on land
diverted from production,”
Block said. “So, we think it’s
only fair that,the timing of
taxes on PIK commodities be
adjusted to coincide with
when the producer has in
come from their disposition.”
Block encouraged farmers
to sign up early, noting that
contracts can be revised or
withdrawn through March 11,
the final date to sign up. He
said the contract does not
become effective and binding
until after the deadline. Thus,
farmers are urged to sign up
early to advoid overloading |
local ASCS offices during the I
final days.
