Martins Gain Victory Over Hill Billies After Thrilling Battle Tearns Will Meet Again Tonight In Local Gym Miss Nora Mttnerief Leads Girls From the Ozarks Against Men Record Crowd the Uniifiie Sporting Event Of the Year By WHEELER MANNING Paced by a charming little lady. Miss Nora Muncrief. the Ozark Hill Billies offered stubborn resistance before a capacity house last night before bowing to the Williamston Martins by a 38-30 score. Taking the lead shortly after the game opened, the lassies were not headed until late in the fourth quarter. The first half found the ladies in the van by an 18-12 count. During the third quarter the locals scored 8 points while holding the Billies to two, to bring the count to 20-all as the last quarter began. During the early part of the final period the lead see-saw ed until five minutes before the end. and then the locals began to find the hoop with a little more accuracy and forged into the lead on three quick goals, two by Grant and a bprnity from near mid-court by Beaird, which put the game on ice for the Martins. The Hill Billies offered one of the best passing and smoothest-working teams seen on the local court this season, and their play exceeded that of proff^jppfll pr^'s teams which have appealed heie during the cur rent campaign The girls were un usually attractive and they would he a credit to any girls' college. Leading the Billies' scoring were Misses Helen Onson, Nora Munchirf and Vinia Hobbs, each counting eighf points, several being beauties from way out, while the entire team of fered fine floor work. Tallying hon ors for the Martins went to long Jeff Grant, who scored a dozen points, most of them on one-handers. as he spun away from his opponent, the comely six-foot three-inch Mis.s Monica Ryan, the world's tallest girl *r-.?Breezy?Bcaiid a?d?Fee Wallace followed closely with 10 markers each. The crowd was treat cd to some comedy as Trickster Pap Uiem spent annul half the -gflnm"o5I the floor. A return game is carded for to night at eight o'clock when the two teams meet, and another good game is promised. There will be plenty of laughs as well as good basketball. To My Fri?'n?!n ami Patron* I want to make it known through this ad that circumstances render it impossible to do any more time bnsiness except by the week?at hjd no longar than SO days ? to good paying customers. Thanking you all tor your past patronage. L. C. NURNEY "Straight" from the Ozarks The "weaker" sex. as many rail women, looked mighty strong last night when the Hill Billies from the Ozarks, a girls' traveling basketball team, played the Williamston Mar tins and offered a much better game than the large crowd anticipated The final score was 38-30. but throughout the contest the lassies were leading the laddies, until the final quarter when the locals drop ped in the payoff buckets And the good part about it is the fact that if you were unable to witness the affair last night you can see the same two teams in action in the high school gym tonight at the same time. Yep, and a number of those who went out last night for the first time this season, will be out again to night. This Miss Monica Ryan, a very pretty young lady, who stands a mere 6 feet 3 and earns the nickname of ?Shorty", had a time guarding Jeff Grant. Expecting Jeff to do all the holding, the situation was exactly opposite. And he didn't get mad ? but I can't blame him After seeing the Hill Billies in action last night, we rank them far ahead of the House of David and about on even terms . with-the QJson Swodas Thoy are without doubt the best blocking team ever to perform on the local court and also possess an un erring accuracy in Shooting has In the exhibition last night ' the Mart'ns made more bad passes than the Billies, a fact which must not be overlooked when judging the ability of any team Pappy Diem paced the show for the night, his antics bringing down tHe house time after time Evep the Ozarks had to laugh at him ?Misses Nora Muncrief.

Newsprint Is Made With Southern Pine While governors of 11 southern stales are renewing their answer to the challenge about the South be ing the nation's "number one eco nomic problem" by launching a 10 year "Balanced Prosperity" pro gram, one of the most definite steps in turning southern resources into income has been taken with actual launching of the new newsprint mill near Lufkin, Tex. It brings to real ity the long-held dream of the late Dr. Charles H. Herty to use abun dant second-growth southern pine as raw material for a great white paper industry?so that the'initio growing "'for?
