BOOMERS LOSE TO WILDCATS 13-6 SCORE HERE 1 I Thanksgiving Day Classic Is Struggle for Supremacy by 2 Teams The annual Turkey Day Classic between the Wildcats of Andrews t and the Boomers of Murphy opened i under ideal football weather with a i dry field and a large crowd of sup- i porters for both teams. { The game promised a great duel 1 between Andrews "Little Ace" Par. 1 ker and Murphy's Tripple Threat, Barni-tt. Both boys turned in brill- 1 iant performances, until the last i quarter when Harnett's weak ankle c turned bad on him. < Only a few minutes had elapsed in the first quarter when Murphy | scored on a long pass from Barnett to Townsend, who received the ball on Andrews ,30 yard strip and raced the remaining distance to the goal. O. Taylor made this possible with a one of the most beautiful blocks t ever seen on a high school gridiron- c Andrews came hark in thn sprond * period living up to their name of Wildcats. Parker raced off tackle t fcehind almost perfect interference c for twenty five yards to Murphy's t eight. In spite of a stubborn goal C line stand by the Boomers the Wildteats scored with only inches to spare, h Andrews second tally came as a t result of a break they received when v Ramsey fumbled near his own goal. a Andrews recovered, putting them p again >n scoring position. Here again ; Andrews smashed into a fighting jc Murphy line four times before final, jo Iv putting the ball over the double e tripe. f Lute in the fourth quarter Murphy i made their last serious threat, being1! turned back on the Andrews fifteen: r by a hard charging Wildcat line. ,e The game ended in the middle of j the field with Andrews in possession i of the ball. c The line.up follows: 1 MURPHY Pos ANDREW? p Taylor, O.

There is a direct relation between he up and down price of farm commodities and the care that is given he soil, said E. Y. Floyd, of State Allege. When prices are ruinously low, ie said, farmers tend to Prow all he cash they can in an effort to frost a living from the land. They ,re virtually foiled to keep every tossible acre in cash crops. And under the pinch of low inome, few farmers are able to carry ut the good practices necessary to nri-h the soil and conserve it for uture years. Thus low prices work in two ways 0 force a type ?f farming that apidly deplets the soil, Flovd pointd outOn the other hand, high prices nduce farmers to raise all the cash rops they can in their desire to nakc money while the making is rood. And farmers tend to neglect heir soil. In places, the (custom of growing ash crops year after year with few oil-building crops in rotation or as 1 cover crop has so reduced the ferility of the land that it is impossible o make a decent living farming this and, he continued. The 1938 agricultural conservation >rogram, he said.

Cherokee Scout, Murphy, N Only Four From 1 Cherokee County File For Funds I i jt Thousands of dollars are lying) unclaimed in the United States Tieasury because those to whom the, money now due under the old-age i1 insurance provisions of the Social Security Act have not filed claims for the amounts due them, Graham'1 Martin, Manager of the Asheville Field Office of the Social Security t Board, which serves this area, said * today. a A large number of workers who ^ have reached 65 since January 1. 1037, and the estates or relatives of ? eligible worker's who have died since I1 December 31. 1936, apparently are a unaware the Social Security Board is 11 making lump-sum payments now to those eligible persons who file claims, Mr. Martin said. 0 Although actuarial experts believe that there are 751 persons in Q the 19 western North Carolina coun-| ties covered by the Asheville Field t( Office who would be entitled to i sefcure lump-sum payments this year. ^ there have been only 120 claims fil- p od to date from this area. It was a estimated that 19 claims would be a filed from Cherokee county. However, only 4 claims have so far been c, received.. is probably that many persons c> to whom lump-sum payments are due ^ have not field claims because they do ri not know the Social Security Board si is making such payments now. They g may be confused by the wide notice given the fact that payment of monthly old-age benefits will not be- d gin before January 1042. Another reason may be that the sums due to many persons are small. P The lump-sum payment amounts to 31-4 percent of the total wages of the eligible worker. For example: Suppose wages totalled' $1,000: the 31-2 percent lump-sum payment would he $35; if wages totalled $100 1 the 31-2 percent lump-sum payment would be $3.50. Many workers seem D doubtful al>out what is meant by r( "total wages". Total wages, under the Act, means the sum of all the o: wages pa>d by all employers for all w the time an employee worked in 1 covered employment after Dec. 31. h 1036, and prior to death or reaching ai 65, not counting wages over $3,000 a from any one employer. Naturally the lump-sum payment due a man tl who reached 65 on January 3, after S being paid for one working day, will ir not be as great as the amount due t< YOU CAN GO FLYING M NOW?FOR HE'S You fan go riding in an airplane. w with Rae Moore now?if you can talk | li him into it like the reporter did?for J ti he has his noncommercial pilots li- t< cense signed, sealed and delivered.

A good dairy cow has a tremenous capacity for converting feed ino milk, said John A. Arey, of State College, and to make full use of his capacity, she should be induced o eat all she can. A healthy cow rushes a grain mixure containing several different eeds, but she usually gets tired of ration Containing only one or two inds of grain. Variety in the grain mixture not nly makes it more palatable, Arey ointed out; it also insures against shortage of minerals and provides eeded proteins. The errain mixture should not he do concentrated. If it weighs about ne pound per quart, it has the ight amount of bulk. Such feeds as wheat bran, ground ats, ground barley, and beet pulp are ften used to add bulk and variety d the mixture. But grain is only a supplementary ecd. Arey emphasized. Cows need lenty of good pasture when it is vailable and a full feed of silage nd legume hay in winter. Dairymen \>riio buy feed for their attle will get better results if they urchase only feed in which the pereutage of nutrients is fairly high, /ben the percentage of 'crude fiber jns high, the fiber fills up the cow's tomach without providing the diestible nutrients she ought to have. > the man who received an equal aily wage every working day since ist December 31 till now. Yet another reason many eligible ersons have not filed claims seems j > bo they do not know they are ligible. Lump-payments now are ue to two groups of persons: First, to the worker himself who as reached 65 since January 1, 937, and who has been paid wages >r work done as an employee since dcember 31. 1936, and before ho ?ached 65. Second, to the estate or relatives f a worker, no matter what his age, ho has died since December 31, 936, provided the deceased worker ad been paid wages for work done 5 an employee, after December 31, nd before he reached 65. Every assistance will be given by ve Asheville Field Office of the dcial Security Board to those who lquire about payments or who wish > flic claims.

Three of the boys e went in with had gotten their lienses previously but all of them had lown more hours than Mr. Moore beare they could make those dangerous urves, banks and stalls necessary to et the instructor's John Henry on the otted line. Rao says it is possible for a man > get a noncommercial pilot's license 1 ith as few as 65 hours solo flying? i ut precious few airmen ever do it.

ANSWER: Where careful man- I agement and feeding is practiced, the requirements for the breeding I flock are net. However, to secure 1 maximum performance, the breeders must be In a good body weight, free from parasites, and must not be fcrowded. The diet should be care- 1 fully balanced and a liberal increment of milk products should be incorporated in the ration as well as alfalfa leaf meal and a potent reinforcing oil.
