WINDSOR DROPS OUT OF LEAGUE Elizabeth City ;Withdraws from Play Last Of This Week Activities in the Albemarle Bate ball League were upset ever the week end, when the Bertie rlub withdrew from play, leaving five clubs to carry on an unbalanced schedule. No rea son for the club's withdrawing could be learned definitely, but small gate receipts are believed to have been re sponsible for the action. Preliminary plans for carrying on activities in the league were discussed last night in Windsor, and it is un derstood that definite announcements will be made the latter part of this week. According to unofficial re ports received here, there is small chance of replacing the Bertie team, giving rise to the assumption that one of the five clubs now in the lea gue may withdraw within the next few days. Information released at noon today stated that Elizabeth City would end its connection with the Albemarle league Saturday of this week.

After many delays, th> Keir tobacco rontrol bill was finally parsed by both brandies of Congress . Monday and sent to the President for approval. There is no doubt that the bill will In signed since it has the full approval of the De partment of Ajjjric tilt in e, w 11 n gards it as more desirable than the similar Bankhead cotton bill. Representative John II. Kerr, the author of th. bill, issued a statement following its final passage in which lie predicted the tire taw will -result in an average price of not less than 20 cents for the North Carolina tobacco crop in 1934. Hut aside from the law may or may hot do in regard to decreasing produc tiou or raising prices, anil its spon sors are certain it will do both, it stems quite certain that tin law will .to- a largci --extent eliminate the condi tion which was- responsible -iux ii^ in troduction. The 95 per cent of the farmers win had signed reduction agreements felt that it was a manifest in/ustici for the 5 per rent who had not benefited more than tlu'y did themselves h> |he cooperative- effort. It was thai sort of a situation which was primar ily responsible fpr the failure of the Tri-State C ooperative Association and under the agricultural adjustment ail of last year the government sought to eliminate such a condition through benefit and rental payments. This year tobacco farmers who co operate will receive rentals of $15 or $20 ah acre on all laud removid from production and will also receive ad justment payments < 7 12 12 per cent Despite these advantages, however, there was much avprthension con cerning the probability of resentment t?ecailsf of the opportunity for fariHef-s not cooperating to produce on an un restricted basis.

Willie Cromwell, young colored nun, created quite a commotion in the Martin County hall of justu yes terday afternoon when he had a fit just after he pleaded guilty in a ease charging him with secret a ault.

He was re moye<r bodily to a small room open* ing into tin auditorium, where he changed his tunc t" one similar to that coming from a dyipg dog. He was later removed to the jail, where his condition gradually improved. Court activities were interrupted, and court attendants, including the judge, offered assistance. Cromwell is said to have had fits before, hut the one yesterday took _ place in an ideal setting for his own good, probably. This morning tfie judge sentenced him to 18 to 24 months on the roads.
