competition of the season Friday ence. He actually scored twice
night in the form of the Laurel'more, once on a beautiful 75-
Hill Red Raiders, but came out:yard run that was called back
on the high side of a 44-14 score. 1 because of an offensive holding
The score, though one-sided
like those in the Knights’ fimt
two games, was not indicative
of the hard-fought battle the
Raiders put up. If anything, it
served, to prove the Knights are
primarily an offensive team,
with plays built around several
backs who can score when they
get within striking range.
The Red Raiders kept South
ern Pines at bay the entire first
half with a trap pass play that
was good better than 50 per cent
of the time.
Lynn Van Benschoten, who,
even at this early stage in the
season has demonstrated his
adeptness at doing about any
thing asked of him, couldn’t be
stopped as he ran for four touch-
penalty, and again on a two-
yard plunge that was also nulli
fied because of a backfield in
motion penalty.
He was nothing short of bril
liant and, good news to him,
several coaches of the Duke Blue
Devil squad were in the stands
watching and admiring him.
Good prospect, they said.
The game was fairly rough, as
evidenced by the many injured
players who had to be taken
from the field, particularly in the
last half.

a clever baU handler and ex
ceptionally good passer

has been announced by Lt. (jol.
Paul Kinnison, temporary chair
man of the group which has been
promoting the idea.
The idea was started here last
spring by a small but spirited
group interested in exploring the
idea and starting such a progr^

nothing more than a “cultiural”
affiliation.

Kiwanis Club Gets
Report On Work Of
Fire Rating Bureau
William S. Bizzell, of Raleigh,
manager of the North Carolina
Fire Insurance Rating Bureau,
told members of the Sandhills Ki
wanis Club on Wednesday why
rigid regulation of insurance is
needed. He cited as principal
reasons: (1) To assure the solven
cy of companies writing policies;
(2) to promote uniformity of con
tracts; and (3) to prevent Unfair
discrimination.
He explained how fire insur
ance rates are based, how they are
changed from year to year, raised
or lowered in proportion to losses.
The rates are established in the
office of the Rating Bureau,
through which pass for audit and
approval or disapproval each year
some two and one-haK million
policies and documents.
Mr. Bizzell is a native of Texas,
son of a former president of Texas
A & M College. He spoke at the
weekly meeting held in the Edu
cation Building of Page Memorial

Hurricane Flossy
Soaks Area With
Over Four Inches
The backlash of hurricane Flos
sy dumped almost five inches of
rain on the Sandhills this week.
No serious damage was report
ed in this area, although several
sections of the state, particularly
the coastal area, suffered heavy
wind damage.
WEEB, which maintains a
weather station here, reported to
day that, as of 10 o’clock this
morning, 4.67 inches of rain had
fell here since 5 p.m. Monday,
fallen here since 5 p.m. Monday.
The bulk of it, 3.25 inches, fell in
a 24-hour period beginning Tues
day at 5 p.m. The sun failed to
shine at all in Southern Pines
Wednesday.
The last day that any rain was
recorded here prior to this week
was September 8. The area had
three inches the first week in Sep
tember, but a hot sun had rapidly
dried out the soil.
A late advisory on Flossy indi
cated it was out at sea headed up
the Eastern coast. It is now term
ed “storm Flossy” rather than
hurricane.
A new tropical storm, which
may brew into a hurricane, was
reported this morning in the Car

No action was taken by the
club regarding the points taken
up in the discussion. The matter,
it was stated, is still being
studied in an endeavor to work
out some scheme by which more
of the trees along the roadside
may be saved. As was stated by
one member: “Those trees mus
be at least fifty years old, prob
ably more. Think what a start
that is towards whatever land
scaping is done!”
The visit and talks by the
mayor and town manager con
stituted the first program of the
club this season. The town offi
cials were introduced by Mrs.
L. T. Avery, program chairman.
Mrs. Claude Reams is president
of the organization.
