Expecting Large Crowd For 'Loyalty Day' Thursday Night
Ticket Sale Is Off
To Splendid Start
Here This Morning
I'niled Support Pleaded For
Bv Club Official* To Boost
The Team's Financed
; i
First reports from the sale of spec- !
ial tickets here early today indicated >
that a large number of fans will be <
on hand to support "Loyalty Day" at
the baseball park here Thursday
evening. Selling for one dollar, the 1l
tickets may be used Thursday,eve
ning and if it isn't convenient for
the purchaser to attend that game he
may use it at any subsequent game
during the regular season, but the
movement is designed to fill the park
to overflowing for the Thursday
night game.
Handled under the direction of
Mrs. E T Walker, chairman, the
sale of tickets was progressing un
usually well this morning, and club
officials had good reasons for be
lieving that several hundred of the
one-dollar admission slips would be
sold.
The Martins are playing Go Ids bo ro
here that night, and the manage
ment is assuring the fans a good
game
Operating on its own resources for
the most part, the I<h . base'.ill ( tub j
is admittedly in ttoLtblespiiie fman- t
cial straits M the present time, but <
wih an increased support beginning I
with Loyalty La\ will see the Mar- j;
tins through Club President 1. T |(
Fowden b? lieves that v\^t! a eon <
tinued support oji the'part of all it
fans the Martins will be m the play- (
off. But there aie several-rriore pay ,;
days to come and a strong support \
for Lovaltv Day will have much to '
do with putting the Martins m the j
finals. Plan now to 1*?on imnd?for j ?
Loyalty Day Those persons who find
it impossible to buy a loyalty ticket !
are assured that then booster tickets
and regulai admissions will be rec
ogn ized.

Fans Disgusted B\
Wilsons Conduct
Of all the^players in the Coastal
Plain League. Williamstun's "Slim"
Gardner is the last man who would
wilfully hurt or injure anyone and
it was disgusting to the.fans when \
Rube Wilson Green\ ill(^ fiianager. 1
threatened Shm with a bat m the j
garni at Green villi last Saturday j
nighV
Catcher Wilcox Mgn.ued lor a high ^
ball, and it struck Wilson on the
head Wilson took his bat and went
for Gardner, cursing and abusing
him. Wilcox intervened and pushed
Wilson away Even after taking his 1
place on first base. Wilson made I
slurring remarks and informed Shm
that he would cut his throat if he ;
hit him or another Greenville man M
Wilson's conduct has not been re- '
pOTted officially to league officials, '
and there is some doubt if the game
umpires will say anything about it.
Recognizing in Slim Gardner a will |
ing and faithful worker, local fans
are supporting Club President L. T
Fowden in filing a vigorous protest !
with the proper authorities against ;
the cowardly action taken by Wil
son. j

tion has been unusually good, re
ports C. F. Parrish. extension poul
tryman at State College, but "too
many" producers are marketing
their pullets as broilers instead of
holding them as layers. At the pres

Farmers Urged To
(/row More Hogs
i p
A 11 -"'ill increasing dimand f,,r
pol k lias caused Kills V. Vestal,
swine specialist of the N. C. State
College Extension Service, to call 011
North Carolina farmers for larger
hog numbers.
More money m circulation as a re
sult of the Defense Program has cre
ated a brighter situation for swine
raisers Likewise, the lease-lend act
guarantees pork supplies to Britain.
"These factors have brought about
a favorable ratio between bog prices
and feed prices," Vestal said "With
hogs selling at II) cents a pound and
better, farmers and 4 H club mem
bers may well afford to feed any pigs
they have, even if they have to buy
some corn as well as protein and
mineral
A11 average of ten trials conduct
ed by the. North Carolina Experi
ment Station showed that 10-cent
hogs will return $1.57 a bushel for
corn consumed, basis cottonseed
meal at $ 1 75 per 100 pounds, and.
fish meal at $3.50 per 100 pounds.
farmers and farm boys wishing to
conduct feeding demonstrations are
advised by Vestal to use the follow
?ng procedure:
Wt igh the pigs at the beginning of
"if period '
Use a self feeder Blueprints may
be obtained from any county agent
Use shelled corn or ground barley
111 one compartment, and cottonseed
meal and fish meal (or tankage! in
the other.
Use the recommended mineral
mixture in a dry .place. Green feed
is important too.
Keep 1, record of the feed used
Vestal said county agents will be
glad to assist farmers in carrying
out these swine-feeding demonstra
tions.

Dick Cherry Returns
To Take Mound Duel
From Bill Teller, 2-1
Cherry I* Liberal With HiU,
But Bear* Down When
Necessary
Dick Cherry returned to action
here last Friday night as a Martin
hurler and won a mound battle over
Bill Teller and Greenville 2rl. It
was an exciting battle all the way,
with Dick giving up 10 hits and Tel
ler allowing half that number. Cher
ry fanned five and walked one, while
the Greenie ace walked one and
struck out one.
Williamston scored its two runs in
the third When Charlie Wilcox open
ed with a single and went to second
on Ken Rymer's sacrifice. Cherry
hit safely but Wilcox had to stop at
third base. Johnny Byrum made a
beautiful bunt to score Wilcox, with
Bill Shelton following with a single
to bring in Cherry.
The Greenie run came in the
eighth frame on singles by Scagg and
Manager Rube Wilson and an infield
out.
However, Dick Cherry proved
a miracle man in the clutch Filling
the bases with none out in the sev
enth. he made the next Greenville
batter fly out to shortstop, fanned
the second and the last batter was
out on an infield grounder. Also in
the ninth Greenville had two men
on with only one away, but Ches
Sparr snagged Finfrock's line drive
and threw to second to make a dou
ble play and end the exhibition.
Bill Shelton was the only Martin
to lut safely twice, the other hits be
-+ng?i'<i n a 11?iln elon?amongr Elmer
Cone, Wilcox and Cherry.
Ken Rymer made a difficult catch
m deep center field to feature afield
with Sparr.
