Large Crowd Big Plane Mrs. Brady Hostess Circles Of M. E. Church Meet With Mrs. C. A. Graham And Mrs. D. E. Highfill Ramseur, Nov. 13.—About the big gest crowd this side of Ringling’s cir cus was seen at the airport near Ram - seur Sunday when the large passenger plane sponsored by the Ford dealer at Asheboro and built by Ford Motor Co., carried a large number of passen gers over this territory, trips to Ashe boro and elsewhere. The plane was about as large as could be well handled on this field, es pecially when the soil is slightly soft from rains, as it was at this time. The load was rather heavy, weight of the plane being 11,000 lbs. we are told, and carrying sixteen passengers and two pilots, a heavy load of gas when loaded. It seems that it was safer than $he ground beneath, ad there was one crack-up of one of Ford’s product, a passenger Ford with a load of boys turning over near the field and suffer ing bruises and minor injuries.

Annual One Cent Sale The Standard Drug Co.

A joint meeting of the town board, the Asheboro school board, the county board of education, and the special committee named to secure a location, was held Tuesday evening in the town hall, presided over by the mayor of the town, W. A. Bunch. The committee composed of C. C. Cranford, D. B. McCrary, W. J. Armfield, Jr., J. F. White, Jr., and W. C. Page, made their formal report and recommended the purchase of the lot on Sunset avenue known as the Lew is Field, for the location of the new proposed school building for Asheboro. This lot, 580 by 600 feet, from all re ports, is better suited for the building' than any other available, all things taken into consideration. The price of the lot is $30,000 with a donation from the owners of $2,500. It was decided that the town would pay $4,000, the county $4,000 and the balance of the purchase price be made up from donations that were available from citizens for a communi ty building. This action, however, was to be sanctioned by the city attorney, H. M. Robins, before the action be came final. The plan at present is for the im mediate forwarding and perfecting of the plans, as the P. W. A. contract stipulates the date for beginning work as December 15th. The $40,000 avail able from the P. W. A. cannot be us ed for a lot, but is for building and equipment. For years the present building has been entirely inadequate and this year, with the largest enrollment in the history of the school, things are pretty bad. There is no question about the town needing a building and a large and modem affair is a definite necessity. For a time, it looked as if this building would not materialize, and many citizens of Asheboro anx iously awaited the outcome of the meeting on Tuesday evening. It will be a great day for Asheboro when ground is actually broken for this building and just cause for Thanks giving. Asheboro Boy Is Accorded Another Honor At School A Short Time Ago Cadet Moore Was Selected Reporter On School Paper According to special orders issued from the Commandant’s office of Riv erside Military Academy at Riverside, Ga., Cadet Charles Edward Moore, Jr., has recently been named corporal, assigned to Company “B.” Cadet Moore is a son of Mrs. Grace Moore and a grandson of Mr. and Mrs. D. C. Smith, all of Asheboro. He has earned a signal honor in achieving this rank, since Riverside is not only the largest military prep aratory school in the nation with a cadet corps of more than five hundred, but is also one of the most distin guished schools of the country, hav ing been designated by the U. S. War Department each year since 1923 as an honor school. Cadet Moore’s pro motion is based on previous record, conduct, scholarship, military profici ency, and a thorough trial period of temporary promotions during the first month and a half of the current school year, and thus represents a recogni tion of general merit. Only a few weeks ago, Cadet Moore was selected a member of the re portorial staff of the Riverside pub lication and took an active part in the initial issue of that paper. Maj. Bruce Craven Issues Statement Interest Farmers News of interest to many farmers of Randolph county is the statement recently issued by Major Bruce Crav en, of Trinity, Conciliation Commis sioner for Randolph county. Major Craven states that the farm debt mor atorium act is now in full force and effect whereby any farmer unable to meet his debts at the present time may obtain the privilege of the mora torium for three years, and that many are taking advantage of it. The previous law, usually known as the Frazier-Lemke Act, was declared unconstitutional by the Supreme court but the law was re-enacted August 28, 1936, in a form that is believed to stand all tests on constitutionality. Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Spa ugh and children, of Atlanta, Ga., were guests of Mra. Spaugh’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. E. G. Morris, over the week end. Mr. and Mrs. Spaugh were called to Linwood the past week on account of the illness of Mr. Spaugh’s father.
