OLD M'COY PORCH IS COMING DOWN That eld frame porch off the McCoy Building on Main Street in Franklin is being raied this week. It was built in the early 1900's and in recent years has been the tavRCt of criticism from a number of citizens who labeled1 it an eyesore. Earlier in the year, town aldermen < r tiered the building owner, Crawford McCoy, to have it torn down, i Staff Photo i VOLUNTEERS INVITED ? * Driver Education Clinic Slated Every Thursday A Driver Improvement Clinic will open in Franklin Thursday, October 6. The clinic will be held at the Vocational Agriculture Building at Franklin High School with instructors. Joe Sherrill, local driver education representative, Patrolman Bud Ensley, of Mur phy, and License Examiner Robert Hooker, of Franklin. The school will operate each Thurs day night from 7:30 to 9:30. Mr. Sherrill said the school is being established as a part of the State's program to re duce the rising toll of traffic i accidents in this district. The schotfl is sponsored and financ ed by the North Carolina De partment of Motor Vehicles in connection with the Point Sys tem. He urges all citizens to take advantage of this opportunity to increase their knowledge of safe driving practices. "We feel sure that the subject matter taught in this course will help you in some way," Mr. Shernil said. Volunteers are invited to at tend the clinic. However, only a limited number of volunteers can be accepted at any one time. Interested persons should contact the local License Ex aminer for further information. 1 It is not necessary to start I with the first session of the series because new students will i be accepted at any time, Mr. j Sherrill explained. The subject j matter is divided into four units so that students may enter at any session and get full bene fit of all the clinic. Subject matter will include the physics of motor vehicle operation, safe driving practices, and state motor vehicle laws. Interesting movies will ' be j shown and demonstrations giv- j en. it is expected that students! will include persons learning to ; drive, as well as experienced j drivers Who wish to brush up on the fine points of safe driv ing. Traffic clinics have ' been i established in many commun- ! : ities for the express purpose j ! of dealing with drivers who are i either uninformed or who do ! not have the proper attitude < or respect for their responsibil- \ ities. As the name "clinic" im- ; ; plies, they are designed to in struct and edijeate and are not ' ? intended to be used as punish ment. i ; The clinics are open to both | : violators and volunteers, peop- 1 pie who arc interested in learn- j ing more safe driving make up ; a sizable percentage ol the at tendance Violators, who are re- | ( ferred to these schools by the courts, are usually the first of- 1 fenders, the youthful ?k>taU>re,' or the "attitude" violators, in many of these courses where people have attended the clinic, the percentage of "repeat" vio lators has been remarkably low. The prime objective of all traffic clinics, whether they be for violators only or for both violators and volunteers, is to prevent traffic accidents, Mr. Sherrill said. This is effected in two ways: First, by instilling the proper driving attitude in the student: and second, by im proving the student's knowledge of traffic laws and regulations, driving techniques and limita tions, physical laws, and other factors connected with the ac tual operation of a motor ve hicle. In addition to the benefits derived through a reduction in traffic accidents, these clinics promote good will and are a fine public relations activity for traffic accident prevention agencies, particularly the traf fic courts, he said.

CANT GET MOVING - Local Juniors Lose To Swain Bv TODD REECE Capitalizing on a ktng-iize end who towered over Panther defen ders, Swain High's junior-varsity football team passed to a 19-0 vic tory over Franklin last Thursday night at Bryscn City. Franklin's J-V team travels to Murphy tonight (Thursday) for a return engagement with that team. In the little Panth ers' first game of the season. Murphy topped them 21 to 0 and the local boys will be out for revenge. Realizing that a good bier mail can sometimes Ret around a good little man. Swain's J-V gridders took to the air lanes and passed 31 times. Franklin J-V defenders i i.ainely fought to stop the aerials, but the Swain computed 12 for a total of 212 yards. Franklin's' line proved too tough for Swain's ground gainers and held them to 70 yards rush ing. Long Runs Despite several long runs that nought the crowd to its feet Franklin was never able to get a sustained offensive drive going. Superb punting by Alex Corbin for the junior Panthers kept the Swain forces running in their own territory much of the night. Franklin's rushing game fea tured quarterback Joe Hall, and backs Gene Young, Lawrence Cook, Jimmy Simpson, and Cor bin, who outdistanced Swain's ground game with 83 yards rush ing. Tough One Hall, the quarterback, proved that a little man can run the ball with success, even against much bigger defenders. On several plays Hall was unable to get off passes and simply was left to truck the" pigskin himself. The little signal caller weaved, twisted, and squirm ed for extra yardage on every occasion . . . and stood up under plenty of rough tackles. Hal! attempted nine passes and j completed two for 31 yards. Swain j racked up 15 first downs to six t for Franklin. Franklin intercept ed two Swain pass attempts and last none of their own. Swain's, final score came In the last two seconds of the game as the result of a penalty which cost Franklin about 35 yards. A Panther pass defender was called for offensive holding down field and a 15-yard penalty was chalk ed off from where the folding oc curred. . Line Stalwarts Stalwarts in the Franklin line' were J. C. Anderson, L. T. Gibson, Alex Corbin, on defense. Morris Stockton, Jimmy Dal ten, Max Cunningham and Don Fisher. Others in on the action were Tommy Fagg, Bobby Dalton, Ar len Evitt, Ronnie Barnes, and Butch Mallonee. Coach C. K. "Ike" Olson played every boy on the squad during the game. Franklin kicked off to open the game and in 11 plays Swain drove to the one yard line, with 17 and 28 yard passes highlighting the drive. From the one, Talmadge Jones drove ovet for the score. Swain tried to run the extra point and failed. Returns Kick Franklin returned Swain's kick to their own 39. but couldn't move the ball and had to punt. Swain returned the punt to the Franklin 47 and drove to the 38 as the quarter ended. One play later Franklin intercepted a pass. On first down. Lawrence Cook scampered around left end for IB yards to the 50. But again Frank lin couldn't pick up the first and punted on fourth down. Swain droved down to Franklin's 35 and punted on fourth. Franklin got the punt return back to their own 40 but lost yardage on two plays and punted. fJwaln returned to their 45. Two long passes moved Swain to the Franklin 19 but time ran out in the first half. Franklin returned the second half kickoff to their own 37 and and then picked up 'a first down as they advanced to the 50. This drive faded thers and they punt ed. Franklin tackles pinned Swain on their own 26 on the re turn and two plays later Swain fumbled and Franklin recovered. Came To Life Franklin fans came to life as they were trailing by only 6 points and had the ball on the Swain 28. A first down plunge through the middle moved the ball to the 15. Then two passes failed to click and two running plays moved the ball to the. 9 where Swain took over on downs. Swain tried two passes from deep in their own territory ' that failed. But. on third down they connected with a 19-yard pass. As the the third quarter ended a 23 yard pass and 12 yards on three! rushing plays moved the ball to] Franklin's 32. Then, a 17-yard ] pass clicked to the Franklin 15 ! and the next play was a touch down pass -Bwnln then ran the point to lead 13-0 Still Fight* Franklin still fought gamely as they returned Swain's kick to the 1 40. Then. Hall couldn't get off a pass and ran to the Swain 45. On the next play Gene Young skirt ed left enr to the Swain 25. Bui again, two passes and two run ning plays failed to get a first ( and Swain U>ek over. Swain passed out to their 45 | , and then Joe Hall intercepted. A ! 20-yard Franklin pass moved the ball to Swain's 25. but Franklin stalled again. Swain took over and passed to their 45 in five plays. 1 Then the long penalty moved the r ball to Franklin's 10. With t\vo| seconds left. Swain passed for the final score. 19-0. REAL ESTATE r - FOK SALE: 25 acres, roads, tim ber and springs and electricity available. 2i miles South of Otto, N.
