MRS. EDGAR EWING
Pinehurst, North Carolina
IN RECORDER'S COURT
‘Words’ Lead To Cutting Scrape
In WSP Cafe; Man Gets 8 Months
A request for a match, simple
words in themselves, led to a
cutting scrape in West Southern
Pines about two weeks ago and
eventually landed Gonzales
Spears, alias Sam Spears, on the
road for eight months.
Spears, 33, has a record in
High Point where he lived prior
to coming to this area about two
months ago as a plasterer on the
construction project at Moore
County Hospital.
Testimony in Recorder’s Court
Monday indicated that Spears
had pulled out a knife while in
■‘Eats Grill” in West Southern
Pines during an argument with
Daniel W. Mason, son of a West
Southern Pines minister. On the
stand Mason exhibited two holes
in his coat and healed wounds
made when Spears cut him.
Southern Pines police officers
Wright and Seawell had been
called to the place about 6:30
Saturday night, February 9.
They first went by Moore County
Hospital where Mason had been
taken after the cutting. Later
they arrested Spears on Steph-1
ens Street, took him to the hospi
tal where he was identified by
Mason, then lodged him in the
jail in Carthage.
In court Spears pleaded guilty
to simple assault (he had been
charged with assault with a dead
ly weapon) and said the argu
ment started when he and Ma
son had engaged in casual con
versation.
Solicitor W. Lamont Brown
produced Spears’ criminal rec
ord which showed he had been
convicted several times before of
cutting people. Mason, testimony
indicated, was of good reputa
tion.
Judge Rowe handed Spears an
eight-month road term.

Sen. Scott Callis
For Senate Probe
Of Poultry Set-Up
Senator W. Kerr Scott of
North Carolina has called for an
investigation of the poultry in
dustry, from hatchery to market.
. Poultry means some five to six
million dollars to Moore County
farmers each year, the county’s
biggest income producer.
The investigation. Senator
Scott said in a resolution which
was accepted by the Senate,
should determine whether collu
sion and monopolistic practices
are involved in fixing prices for
market eggs and broilers; wheth
er production controls should be
established; and should asess the
benefits, hazards and extent of
the so-called “vertical integra
tion” scheme.
Under the “vertical integra
tion” plan, the hatchery, the
equipment dealer, and the feed
man are directly involved in
broiler and egg production and
the farmer is their producer and
tool for a small fee per bird.
day.
Judge Rowe took time at the
end of court to dispose of 37 cases
that had been pending on the
docket for some time. Most of
the cases Were violations of traffic
laws. Cash bonds were ordered
forfeited in many of them.
