The project which led to the de velopment of the RlRv vaccine was made pos sible by dollars contributed to the annual Christ mas Seal Sale of tuberculosis associations thru- out the country. In the top picture, a rabbit vaccines being tested, and later given live TB germs, is getting its regular X-ray. In the pic ture on the left, a guinea pig is receiving its RlRv vaccination. On the right, Mac Vandiviere (right), director of laboratories and research at the Chapel HiR center, is shown discussing X- rays of rabbits with a physician. According to Vandiviere, the strongest of the BCG vaccines did not give as much protection to the animals as the new RlRv vaccine did. New Pastor Named To Beulah Hill Baptist Chureh The Rev. Max A.

One official point ed out that Red Springs joined the conference this year for the first time and had a good year, winning about half the games on its sched ule. No schedule has been worked out at present, although dates for the games have been tentatively set. All that is lacking is to de cide which games will be played in Southern Pines. Leonard said the biggest de termining factors in converting to the 11-man program were (1), most athletic scholarships are awarSed to boys who play on li man teams, and (2) more boys would be able to play with the larger team. He said that prospects for next season’s outlook were dim, citing, the fact that most of the players on the first two teams this year I would not be back “We feel, I however,” he added, “that within la few years our younger boys jwill have gained enough experi ence to play on an even par with the best in the conference.” CHRISTMAS roiiiitmeu tnirn Page 11 scheduled for various members to paint, straighten or tighten' up toys which are donated.

Leonard said he thought Aber deen, Robbins, Carthage and Southern Pines would probably be the top four teams, though he did not discount the possibility that one of the smaller schools might field a surprisingly good team.

BLUE KNIGHTS | (Continued from page 1) been rumors that Aberdeen has considered adopting the 11-man program. The Cape Fear Conference pres ently is composed of Chadboum, Red Springs, Elizabethtown, Hope Mills, St. Pauls, Fairmont and Shallotte, though there is some question, as to whether Shallotte will remain in the conference. Massey Hill has also been a mem ber but will not be next year. The conference is in the “A” classification, as viewed by the North Carolina High School Ath letic Association. Class “A” means, generally, that a high school has less than 350 students, both boys and girls. Southern Pines, ac cording to Dawson, has about 220 at present, with an expected en rollment the next school year of some 240. Irie Leonard, who coaches foot ball and baseball, and W. A. Leon ard, basketball coach, were invit ed to a meeting of conference of ficials recently and it was there that the official invitation to join was extended. Marion Bird, sup erintendent of schools at St. Pauls, is president of the conference. It was noted here this week by school officials that Southern Pines is probably making a big step so far as its athletic program I is concerned.
