The Green Wave line-up will be mostly rookies, but Coach Edwards is quite optimis tic about developing a good team.

Taylor, Sammy Taylor, j Robert Jones, Harold Hargett, Mau rice Moore, Luther Peele, Billie My ers, Charles Hines, Jimmie Man ning, John Got! and .Reg Griffin Coach Edwards is still very doubt ful about the starting line-up, but either Thurman Perry or Billie Peele will start on the mound. Today's Praise Farm Leaders For Scrap Collection Rural North Carolina has done a remarkable job of collecting scrap metal off the farms, and making it available for war-time uses, says D. S. Weaver. Extension agricultural engineer of State College who oi> ganizcd the Scrap Collection cam paign. To date more than 25 million pounds have been collected, and there are indications that an equal amount remains to be collected. "Let's make i very "Saturday 'Scrap Day' for farmers," Weaver suggest ed. "Rural people usually come to town on Saturday, and it would be an easy matter for them to pick up a few pieces of old iron or steel lying around the farm and throw them in to the back of the car or wagon. The hauon neeus an the scrap it can get months, furnaces having an annual capacity of several million tons of game will begin at 4:00 o'clock.

Greater Than the Loss of Singapore The fall of Singapore means little to this old Malayan mother as she sits on h pieee of debris in the city's streets after a heavy Japanese bombing attack and cries to Heaven her grief at the loss of her child.

Madonna to China's Millions Madame Chiang Kai-shek comforts a shy newcomer to a war orphanage in Chungking, China's war capital. Childless herself, Madame Chiang is "mother" to the thousands of homeless waifs being provided for under her care with the aid of funds from the United China Relief. _ (Centra/ Vrc99) for munitions, guns, tanks and ships." The State College leader said that the scrap shortage is one of the most serious problems affecting the whole armament program. During recent new metal have been forced to shut down solely due to lack of iron and : steel scrap. The steel mills must be kept rolling, and the scrap shortage for 1042 is estimated to be a mini mum of six million tons. Weaver is high in his praise of the job done 111 the rural areas by the County Agricultural Workers Coun cils and the community and neigh borhood leaders. "Some counties have collected more than a million pounds," he said, "but other coun ties equally as large have fallen short of this mark. If we get 50 mil lion pounds of scrap, as is now indi cated, that will be only about 180 pounds from each of the 278,270 farms in North Carolina, There should be at least 500 pounds of scrap on every farm." In calling on the county agricul tural workers councils, and on rural leaders, to continue their scrap-cot1" lection efforts, Weaver said: "We can't afford to rest on our laurels, when the men on the battlefront art crying for guns, ammunition, tanks, ships, and planes."

Million Pounds Scrap Iron North Carolina farmers have re sponded enthusiastiea ljy to the na tional need to repair farm machin < ry and to sell scrap metal, accord ing to reports made to the State USIM War Hoard. Machinery must be in tip-top shape for production of urgently needed war crops this year, and scrap metal is essential for steel mills producing arms to fight the Axis. Approximately 28,000,000 [rounds of scrap metal have been collected J in the State so far-, with much more | to be gathered from Tar Heel farms. New appeals are br ing rqade for more scrap from farms by the War Production Board which says Some 1 mills are slowing down due to lack of scrap. The board says there still is enough scrap metal on farms of the nation, if used with other ma terials, to make more? battleships than there are in the world today, or enough 2,000-pound bombs to drop one every second for more than three years. Containers Paper bags will apparently come into wide use as containers for fer tilizer and other supplies as the bur lap situation become# one of agricul ture's immediate probh^tis. Shoes Last year's shoe production figures smashed all past records, and came within 7,000,000 pairs of the 500,000, 000-mark, with an even greater out put scheduled for 1942. Farm equipment and tractor deal ers have been requested by Price Administrator Le*m Henderson not to advance the prices of machinery thlayir. * | NOTICE OF SALE Notice is hereby given that under and by virtue of an order of the Clerk of the Superior Court entered in that certain special proceedings pending in the Superior Court of Martin County entitled: "Sam Moore and wife and Jasper Moore and wife, and others vs. Reginald Chesson, Bonnie Harroll Wynne and others," same being a partition proceedings, the undersigned Commissioner will on the 10th day of April, 1942, at twelve (12) o'clock Noon, at the Courthouse door of Martin County, Williamston, North Carolina, offer for sale, at public auction, to the highest bidder, for cash, the follow ing described real estate, to-wit: FIRST TRACT: A certain tract or parcel of land in Martin County, State of North Carolina, adjoining the lands of Lemuel Glisson, S.
