Farm Life Cagers
Bow To Local Stars
The local All-Stars scored a 51-41
win over the Farm Life Independents
in a game played on the losers' court
Tuesday night. The All-Stars were
pinch-hitting for the local Eagles,
who couldn't muster their full team
for the affray.
After getting off to a slow start
and trailing most of the first period,
the locals rallied and were ahead by
a 22-16 count at half-time. Play dur
ing the second half was about even,
with both teams displaying more
offensive power.
Hie Farm Lifers used two full
teams in an effort to halt the locals,
and their scoring was divided among
nine players. Clifton Ward and J. R.
Griffin, each with eight points, were
high for the losers.
For the locals, Thomas Martin,
making his first appearance as an
All-Star, was high man, scoring 12
points during his 18 minute stay in
the game. Fenner Wallace, with 11,
was second, while Big Boy Mears
and Shorty Corey were close behind
with 10 points each.
The All-Stars are making plans to
enter the annual Gold Medal Tourn
- -orient to be held in Rocky Mount
BJ'Xt week This tournament, the
only one for independent teams to
be held in this part of the State this
year, always offers a good selection
of evenly-matched teams, and the
locals will find some tough compe
tition. However, they hope to be
able to hold their own, and maybe
get by the first round. The Rocky
Mount Y Varsity is the defending
champion.

You wouldn't think that carpets,
peanut butter and bicycles would
have much in common, would you?
But in upstate New York they do,
for Mohawk Carpet Mills, Beech-Nut
Packing, and H. P. Snyder company
(Ipkcs) have pooled their extra
manufacturing facilities in order to
bid more effectively for government
jobs to offset curtailments of their
regular output ... A non-military,
though war-caused case of conver
sion is the decision of Libbey-Owens
Ford, largest maker of flat glass
products ,to enter the field of pre
fabricated housing?to cushion the
decline in demand for glass caused
by cessation of auto production,
which formerly took nearly half its
glass output.

Mr J W Bellflower, Jr. or Oak
City, spent the day here Thursday.
IN MEMORY
Just one year
Ago today.
Our darling baby
Was taken away.
She left this world
Of sin and pain;
For a better lund
With God to reign.
What she suffered,
We'll never know;
But still we hated
To see her go.
We loved our darling,
But God loves best;
So he took her
Home to rest.
Her smiling face,.
We see no more;
Her little toys
About the floor.
Where is little sister,
Jimmie will often say;
Is she sleeping, Mother,
Why did she go away?
Then I try to answer,
So that he will know.
She's resting in heaven,
Where all little children go.
Her clothes are placed
Away with care;
Each piece laid away
With a mother's prayer.
God has blessed our home,
With another little one;
But we stm remember you,
And will, 'til life is done.
Often when I linger,
Around her grave;
It seems I hear
tier sweeny say.
"Don't grieve mother, v
Be of good cheer;
I'm so happy,
Living up here.
"I'm resting with Jesus,
Free from all pain;
Cheer up, mother,
We'll meet again."
Then as I turn
To go away,
I catch a glimpse
Of that glad day.
When we all shall meet
Around God's throne,
To dwell forever,
In that heavenly home.
By Delia Brown, Mother. Zow
Brown Revels.
