FOOD DRIVE HOTEL PURCHASED (Continued from Page 1) as a radar technician at Pope Field during the war, he was as- isocicfted in the holjel business with W. E. Flynn and the late Millard H. Turner at Charlevoix, Mich., for about eight years, and at the Highland Pines Inn, Sou thern Pines, for some time. CAMERA CLUB COTTON INDUSTRY (Continued from Page 1) agriculture was Senator John H. Bankhead of Alabama, who was honor guest at the special “Bank- head Night’.’ program. The subject of the Alabama senator’s^ address, setting the keynote for the con vention, was “The Southern cot ton Farmer and His Problems,” as tributes were read terming Bankhead “the Southern cotton farmer’s most outstanding friend.” In the course of the ev ening’s program Bankhead was recipient of a gift from the manu facturers, in token of their appre ciation of his public service. Among others who have spo ken, or will be heard through the remainder of the convention, are O. Max Gardner, Undersecretary of the Treasury Hugh M. Comer of Sylacauga, Ala., chairman, and Dr. Claudius T. Murchison of New York, president of the Cot ton Textile Institute; W. L. Ran dolph, president of the Alabama Farm Bureau Walter S. Mont gomery of Spartanburg, associa tion vice-president; and T. M. Forbes of Atlanta, executive vice-president of the Georgia Cotton Manufacturers Associa tion. GOOD PEACH YEAR (Continued from Page 1) Auman, both with orchards in West End, are expecting a good year. The total current production of Ijhe succulent fruit throughout North Carolina is being estimated at 3,200,000 bushels or 47 per cent more than was produced last year, it was announced earlier this week by Russell Handy of the State Department of Agri culture. Handy points out that this is an estimate of production for the entire state, and not just the commercial crop. Earlier in the season, a severe attack by cuculio was reported from some parts of the orchard section, but the growers follow ed warnings from State College entomologists and apparently the insects were brought under con trol. Sandhills peach growers have notified extension officials at the college that the first ship ments should begin by May 25. Last year there were sections of the state in which the peach crop was almost a complete fail ure, resulting in a lower aggre gate estimate for this year than would appear from the size of the present Sandhills crop. The South Carolina crop is in dicated to be slightly naore than last year, while the total produc tion for Georgia is estimated at 6,580,000 bushels or 19 per cent less than in 1945. Production in the ten Southern states is estima ted at 25,995,000 bushels or 3 per cent less than last year, but 64 per cent greater than the 10- year (1935-1945) average produc tion. (Continued from Page 1) transportation for the food coll ection. 'Jere McKeithen contacted a similar group in Aberdeen with equal success. The Boy Scouts, under Mr. J. K. Melvin, will coll ect the cans of food and the Pres byterian Ladies Aid Society will furnish the transportation. Time, did not allow for the mechanical set-up in Pinehurst for this Saturday, but it is con fidently believed that the drive will be county-wide by the foll owing Saturday. The cans will be turned oyer to Miss Flora McDonald at the Curb Market in Southern Pines at non Saturday, who will in turn see that UNRRA gets them in short order. Anyone who is not contacted by the Scouts can leave a can of food at the Curb Market and add that much more to this desper ately needed food drive. DONATIONS It has also been stated that with any donations that are made Miss McDonald can buy canned fod wholesale through the UNR RA. Checks may be sent direct to Miss Flora McDonald, in Car thage or to the UNRRA Food Fund, care of The PILOT.

Be tween them, they provide the Club with excellent information. With their Jcnowledge, as well as that of other members, the Club offers amateur photographers of the Sandhills an -excellent chance to learn a very excellent hobby. The first print contest to be held by the Camera Club has been set for August 13th, by which time it is expected that all members will be able io turn in a good salon print. “Scenery” has been agreed on as the best subject for the first monthly con test. The Sandhills Camera Club’s next meeting will be Tuesday, May 28th at 8 p. m. and the Camera Club’s first outing, where composition will be studied first hand and mixed with a picnic, will be on Sunday, May 26th. Miss Floyd and "Jessie" (Continued from Page 1) “wanted no sympathy gifts from anyone.” Six years ago, in Morristown, N. J., Miss Floyd and Jessie be gan their partnership. Jessie cost $150, although her training cost over $1,000. The balance is taken care of through the generous aid of organizations that want to help the blind get started on their own. This it has done for Miss Floyd who now sells subscrip tions and gathers material for the popular magazine “The State”, so ably edited by Mr. Carl Goerch. Miss Floyd uses a Braille filing system that she in vented herself and does her own typing, except those times she is over-run with business and has to hire a part-time secretary. One point in the relationship between “Jessie” and herself Miss Floyd stressed very definitely. No matter how deep and very last ing affection between the two. Seeing Eye Dogs are not pets. . . and are not to be treated as such. While they are not at all vicious, they are taught to protect. They are taught many things, and some they learn better than most humans—traffic, for instance. Jessie has never made a mistake, never jay-walked. Once, Miss Floyd had instruct ed Jessie to take her to a certain service station where they had gone about a year before. Every thing went along smoothly un til Miss Floyd said “Right” to Jessie>, but Jessie wouldn’t go right. Instead, she turned left to where the man who ran the fill ing station was standing. . . be cause. Jessie knew from the year before this was the person her mistress was looking for. If someone stops and talks to Miss Floyd, Jessie invariably stands between that person and her mistress. After she has given the stranger a thorough once over, Jessie very politely minds her own business. With the Seeing Eye Dogs so Successful in doing their jobs, maybe they’ll start a school pretty soon and teach us humans how to do our own better. (Continued from Page 1) field. ' Leading sluggers for Southern Pines in the nip and tuck affair were Wicker, center gardener, with 2 for 4, and Harper, Howell, and Thomas, each with two hits for five trips to the plate. Bat teries; Southern Pines, Thomas and McNeill. Star, Jenkins and Cochrane. Thomas allowed 17 hits, Jenkins 12. Lose io Siler City A hard hitting Siler City out fit, in second place earlier this week in the chase for Sanclay honors, touched the portside de liveries of moundsman Woody Davis for 9 hits to down South ern Pines 6-1 at the ^ocal diamond on Wednesday, as the Chatham boys chalked up their fourth win out of five. Decisive in the after noon’s fray were the fire ball slants of Hicks, on the hill for Siler City, who turned back 14 at the plate while allowing 5 scattered hits. In the first inning, with one man down and a runner at third, on base by an infield error, Siler City pushed across an initial tally as catcher Les McNeill fielded an easy roller and threw to first, the plate uncovered. Holding the locals scoreless for eight innings, the clay country outfit scored 2 additional runs in both the fourth and sixth frames, with a final tally,in the seventh. Lone score for Southern Pines came in the last of the ninth, as Howell, short stop, beat out an infield hit and Walt Harper walk ed; the latter scoring from third as Frankie Buchan laced out a hard single to center. Thomas hit into a double kill, howeyer, and the game ended as Vest grounded out to short. Leading hitter for the after noon was Buchan, third sacker, with 2 for 3. For the invaders, moundsman Hicks collected 2 for 4, and Glosson 2 for 5. Missing from the local line-up was Ed Newton, first baseman and play ing manager, who suffered an ankle injury in Saturday’s game.
