ALSO CHARGED WITH DRUNKENNESS Mother Tried For Neglect Of Child Left Uncared-For About Three Days A two-year-old child lying in+ its own filth, covered with sores, too weak to move or to cry, was found last Wednesday in a house at Vass where it was believed to have been left alone for about three days. Assistant Police Chief J. R. Grissom of Vass said he went to the one-room home of Beulah Little Ewing Daniels on informa tion from the neighbors that the young Negro mother had left the boy there alone since Monday. In Moore County Recorders Court Monday, where the mother was tried for public drunkeness and neglect of her child. Officer Grissom said, “It was the most pitiful thing I’d ever seen. The baby was lying in the middle of the floor, just filthy. It couldn’t move at aU. There was no food or milk in the house. There was not even a clean garment for the baby.” While he was there, he said, the mother came staggering to the house, drunk. He placed her under arrest and took the baby to a neighbor, to whom he gave some money to buy food and milk. He said when the neighbor tried to wash the child, it was so thirsty it grabbed the rag and tried to suck it. Grissom notified the welfare authorities, and this week said he thought they were making some arrangements for the child. In court, the mother made an attempt to testify but was nearly incoherent. Judge J. Vance Rowe placed her on 12 months’ proba tion on condition she take care of her child, feed and support it, and if she has to leave the house, to arrange for someone else to care for it. Otherwise she goes to jail for 60 days.

GAVIN, MOORE (Continued from Page 1) offices, from which they will work with the people and agencies of the region to help them rea lize their best industrial potential. Moore came to Mid Pines from Pinehurst, where he had also ad dressed the N. C. Bottlers As sociation, in a speech sounding a conservative note. He blasted “big government” as not con ducive to a true prosperity, not ing that “the key to prosperity is productivity, and the key to productivity is an abiding deter mination to strengthen free enter prise.” Rep. H. P. (Pat) Taylor, Jr., of Wadesboro, who will probably be the next Speaker of the House, succeeding H. Clifton Blue of Aberdeen, was also a morning speaker on the Young Bankers program. He described his decade of ser vice in the General Assembly as an era of great change, noting that “the changes are not slowing down but on the contrary, are speeding up.” In that period, he said, the State budget and reve nues have practically doubled, the pay of school teachers has gone up almost 50, per cent, and many new programs have been institut ed and old ones changed to meet today’s new demands. As a busi ness must be constantly seeking new ways to serve the people while using its resources wisely, so must the State government, he said. Bankers and other business and industrial leaders should “lead the way in study of new programs, helping to determine which should or should not be adopted, and help to send to the General Assembly men of vision and ability capable of meeting Uhese needs.” Among other program items for the bankers was a talk by Nile F. Hunt, director of public instruc tion of the State Department of Public Instruction, reporting on education today, in the light of interest in the subject shown by the Young Bankers in the esta blishment of their College Foun dation, Inc.

Sunrise Theatre All the captivating good humor and robust, lusty fun which have made Henry Fielding’s celebra ted novel of life, liberty and the pursuit of ladies in Somerset, England in the mellow 18th Cen tury an enduring favorite, come to the screen in the United Ar- tists-Lopert Eastmancolor re lease “Tom Jones” which opened Wednesday at the Sunrise Thea tre. Hailed by critic after critic as one of the finest pictures ever produced anywhere, the comedy stars England’s famous Albert Finney as Tom, and supports him with such impressive players as Susannah York, Hugh Griffith, Edith Evans, Joan Greenwood, Dianne Cilento, George Devine and David Tomlinson. “Tom Jones” was produced and directed by Tony Richardson with special music by John Ad dison. Because it so largely retains its 18th century flavor despite the encroachments of “modern ity,” the green meadow country of Dorsetshire in south western England was selected as the “lo cation” for the filming of “Tom Jones.” NEW JUNIOR ADMISSION PRICE, AGE 12-15. SET The Sunrise Theatre loegins new admission prices for young peo ple, starting October 1, called “Junior Admission Prices” and offered to ages 12 through 15, it was announced today by Robert Dutton, manager. The new prices wiU be in be tween the present children’s ad mission price and the adult price. As a rule, the new junior ticket price will be 15-20 cents below the normal adult admission. This will be the first attempt to offer a special price to all young peo ple of the 12 through 15 year age level. In the past, a student card was used by most young people and it proved most popular to the 12 through 15 year age group but failed to reach aU young people in this category. Surveys have proven that the student card has became increasingly unpopular and will no longer be used. There will be no card of any kind need ed for the young person. The new admission prices will be used for a trial period of one year and if the junior admission price proves acceptable and pop ular with the young people, it will be continued as a regular policy after the one year trial period.
