TAX TIP
(Salespersons’
Gift Expenses)
Question: Each year at
Christmas I give my customers
ballpoint pens with my name
printed on them. The pens cost
me a total of $100. I am a car
salesman and am paid on a
commission basis. Can I deduct
the cost of the pens if I do not
itemize on my income tax
return?
Answer: Sorry. Since a car
salesman does not qualify as an
"outside salesperson” (one who
does his or her selling away from
the employer’s place of busi
ness). your entertainment and
income-producing expenses are
not allowed as adjustments to
income. The cost of the pens, if
otherwise qualified, is deductible
as a miscellaneous expense if you
itemize. — Provided as a Public
Service of H&R Block, The
Income Tax People.

Tryon Wins Two
From Rosman
The Tryon High School basket-
ball teams won a doubleheader
from Rosman Tuesday night at
Tryon. Due to the snowy weather,
both games were cut short, so
that Rosman would be able to get
back home.
The Tryon girls won 55 to 9 and
the boys 90 to 49.
The Tryon girls had no
difficulty in its rout of Rosman as
they jumped out to an early lead
and by halftime it was 32 to 3.
(The 3 Rosman points were
scored from the charity stripe)
Robin Simpson had 16 points,
Lawana Littlejohn 15 points and
C. Booker 12 for Tryon.
The Tryon boys missed a
number of shots early in the
game, but soon found their range
and had a 21-12 lead by the end of
the first quarter; by halftime
time it was 43-26 and at the end of
third quarter 72-39. In the
shortened fourth quarter the
Tigers hit 9 out of 10 shots for
their 90-49 victory. Tony Cun
ningham was unbelievable as he
hit 12 of 13 shots for 24 points. He
also hit two more that didn’t
count, due to an earlier foul. Sam
Miller and Warfield Kirkendoll

THIS IS THE LAW
Sponsored by The Lawyers of North Carolina
REVOCATION OF WILLS
Problems sometimes a-
rise in deciding whether a
person has revoked his
win.
A woman died leaving a
typewritten will in which
several provisions were
lined out with a pen and
ink. There was no
evidence as to who made
the pen marks, although
the will was found among
the papers and books of the
woman who made the will.
Was the will revoked as
to the lined-out portions?
The North Carolina
court said no.
A written will, or any
part of it, may be revoked
by being burned, torn,
canceled, obliterated or
destroyed with the intent
and for the purpose of
revoking it. This must be
done by the person making
the will or by another
person in his presence and
by his direction.
The court said that even
assuming that the woman
made the ink marks her
self still there was no
evidence that she made the
marks with the intent to
revoke.
A great deal of care is
required in the effective
revocation of a will.
