Helicopters Will
Vie With Planes
In Tests By Army
Carolina skies will be the scene
June 1-17 of competition between
airplanes and helicopters in haul
ing personnel and cargo. '
Tluree tests, a part of Exercise
Sky"^Drop II which starts June 1
at Fort Bragg, will take place be
tween Camp Mackall, about 10
miles, south of Southern Pines,
and specially selected air fields in
North and South Carolina.
The first phase of the tests,
June 1-3, will find pilots and hel
icopters of the 8th Helicopter Bat
talion competing against pilots
and aircraft of an L-20, fixed
wing, unit. Also competing will
be a civilian modification of the
L-20, known as the “Otter.” This
first phase will pit the various
aircraft against each other from
Camp Mackall, to the Rocking-
ham-Hamlet airfield, a'distance of
approximately 20 miles.
Phase II of Exercise Sky Drop
II will see the distance increased
to between 40 and 60 miles while
the final phase will be 80-100
miles. Careful measurements will
be made of gasoline consumption,
speed and efficiency of move
ment, .and actual cost of aircraft
maintenance during -the test.
Special ground signal equipment
will be used to keep all aircraft
on the same course during the
exercise. The aircraft will be driv
en as hard as they would under
actual combat conditions so as to
establish pilot and aircraft fatigue
factors for future use.

all right—but that was about the
only thing there was agreement
on, and in view of the conflicting
testimony of the numerous wit
nesses Defense Attorney H. F.
Seawell managed to get his client
free on a “reasonable doubt.”
Michael King, charged with
embezzling a cellmate’s watch
while both were in Moore County
jail, was found not guilty by a
jury in view of the fact the watch
was never located.

No One Remembered
Nol pros with leave was taken
for Richard Everhart of Lexing
ton, thus closing the book on one
of Moore county’s grimmest acci
dents and most confusing highway
tragedies. Two Davidson County
men were killed in the wreck at
the intersection of Highways 211
and 11-501 at Aberdeen in June,
1952. Three other men were crit
ically injured when a powerful
car plowed through a guard rail
and went over a high bank. Evi
dence pointed to Everhart as the
driver of the car and he was ar
rested, but no one’s memory ever
came clear enough to remember
definitely whether Everhart or
one of the fatality victims was at
the wheel when the accident oc
curred. The case has hung fire
two years while the Lexington
youth slowly recuperated from his
injuries, which will leave their
mark on him for life.
Motion to dismiss was allowed
in the case of Luther Smith, plead
ing guilty to non-support. Other
cases on the* calendar were con
tinued.
In another jjury trial, in which
Alfred Leslie of Pinehurst was
charged with breaking and enter
ing with felonious intent, Solici
tor Boyette interrupted the pro
ceedings after all evidence was in
to state that he would take a non
suit in the case. He had heard
nothing, he said, to indicate crim
inal intent. The youth was said to
have twice entered the home of
L. D. Frye at Pinehurst, appeared
to have been drinking and said
he was looking for his wife. The
second time, he hit a man who
tried to eject him.
Non-suit was also allowed in
the case of Harry Lee Howell, of
Laurinburg, who had .appealed
from a speeding conviction in re
corders court. Howell was re
ported to be in prison at Raleigh,
where he is serving a lengthy
term for the fatal shooting of a
young Laurinburg police officer.
Forgery Cases
Luther McKeithen drew sen
tences of two to five years for
forgery, then five to 10 years for
issuing a worthless check, the sec
ond sentence to be suspended on
good behavior conditions. This
was also a jury trial.
Benny Robbins of Southern
Pines, pleading guilty to a forgery
charge, received a similar sen
tence—two to five years on the
roads, to be followed by five to
10 years in prison, the second
sentence to be suspended on good
behavior conditions. Which in
clude the non-violation of any
law. Robbins, reported to be an
alcoholic, has served some 20 or
25 times, the arresting officer.
Chief C. E. Newton, testified.
Allen M. Grant of Southern
Pines, pleading guilty to non-sup-
port of his young daughter, was
given a road sentence of
twelve months suspended on
payment of $50 at the time, then
$10 weekly toward her support
till she is 21, or till further order.
The sentence was arranged with
agreement of defense counsel
pending settlement of a custody
case now in the civil court.
Whalen Irving Cagle, Pinehurst,
received 60 days on the roads
suspended for two years on pay
ment of $75 and costs, and was
ordered not to operate a motor
vehicle for 60 days, when he pled
guilty to a charge of speeding 75
miles an hour, with no valid op
erator’s license, on "the Midland
Road.
For drunken driving and care
less and reckless driving, Jobe
Columbus Taylor, Jr., was sen
tenced to four months on the
roads, suspended for 12 months on
payment of $150 and costs.
Year On Roads
Willie White, pleading nolo
contendere to assault with dead
ly weapon, went to the roads for
12 months. Non-suit was allowed
in the case of Andrew Utley,
charged with auto larceny.
Many cases were continued,
among them that of James E.
Waddell, charged with careless
and reckless driving in an acci
dent fatal to a Negro child on a
bicycle in Southern Pines. Law
rence M. Johnson, defense coun
sel, asked for and received a con
tinuation on the grounds that his
chief witness and only eye-wit
ness to the accident . had given
birth to a child that morning.
The grand jury returned 21 true
bills. No true bill was found in
one case, that of Monroe Alford,
charged with assault with intent
to commit rape against his aunt.
Indications were that the term
FRIDAY. MAY 28, 1954
would not continue beyond Thurs
day.
March production of total non
fat dry milk solids was the high
est for the month in 20 years on
record—131,650,000 pounds, 18 per
cent above a year earlier.
