H1NT0N DREW PRAISE FOR HIS RING WORK "Pug" Hinton, Brevard favorite of the rpoed arena, drew very favorable comment from sports editors of the Carolines last week when he won the semi-final bout of the Newberry Keeling card from Bobby Turner. The Greenville News had the fol lowing to say about the prowese of Hinton : "Bobby Turner, of Dunean, yield ing 10 pounds to "Pug" Hinton, put up a really great scrafy, Hinton won and deserved the decision but it was a sure enough battle from first to last Turner kept tearing in and Hin ton refused to yield. They fought but few letups. This fight pleased more than any, as far as action was con cerned." Pug has fought seventeen bouts in the past two years, winning ten of them, lost three, drawed three and one no-decision. He is slated to meet Rambling Rufus Miles of Columbus, Ga., within a short time, probably at Greenville, for the welterwight cham pionship of the Carolinas.

Asheville was high ly honored to be among the list of cities to receive a tree. The nuts are from the walnut trees at Mount Vernon. The tree planting i3 a part of the program to celebrate in 1932 the bicentennial of the birthday of George Washington. Among the distinguished guests present were the Secretary of Inter ior, Raymond Wilbur, the Treasurer of the Boy Scouts, George D. Pratt, , and the Chief Scout Executive, | James E. West. Troop 1 arrived in Asheville about 10:30 and they celebrated until 1:30. At that time all the Scouts met at the court house to form a parade. The parade was composed of Boy | Scouts from all over the Daniel Boone Council. Even the Indian Troop at Cherokee was present. "The drum and bugle corps of Ashsville led the parade. All the United States flags were massed, which greatly added to the appearance of the troops. The parade began at the court house, then to the square, down Patton avenue, around the old post office building, back to the 6quare, snd down to the court house. Here they formed an almost complete circle aiound the road in front of the court house and city hall. Scouts were or dered to fall out. | At 2:30 the troops were called to attention as James E. West arrived. Mr. Pratt took charge. When Dr. jWest began to speak all the Scouts land citizens crowded around, for he I was the man of chief interest at the meeting. The Chief Scout executive gave a real interesting talk on scouting arid he referred to Washing ton several times. His speech was closed by all the Scouts repeating the Scout Oath together. Several import ant speakers were present and each of them put some dirt on the tree. Mr. Wibur could not be present. Next Dr. West made a careful in spection of each troop. He person j ally congratulated each Eagle Scout. 'Each Scout was given two walnuts from the trees at Mount Vernon. They are to work out their own way of raising them. Troops were then dismissed. Troop 1 again stormed Asheville for a few hours. We left for home about five o'clock. The boys bought out one hot-dog stand on the way back.

"It'# great weather for cutworms," Mr. Brittain says. "The mild lady like winter and balmy spring have greatly encouraged the output of these notorious pests and are there fore a greater menace than ever to garden and truck crop*, corn and to bacco. "They're especially fond of crops growing in freshly turned sod land where the ground is soft on the feet and easy to bore through. "To destroy these worms a poison bait must be prepared and scattered over the ground. "The easiest way to prepare such poison bait is to dissolve 3 pounds of Paris Green in 3 gallons of water and sprinkle it on 100 pounds of Purina Bulky Las. Shovel it over and you have enough bait for five acres. | "At sundown scatter the poisoned i bait on the ground. When the cut- j worms corns up at night to feed, the I odor of the moistened Bulky Las at tracts them. It tastes good. The worms eat hearty and go home hap-| py. That will be their last- public appearance. "Many cars of Bulky Las are used each year for this purpose in the United States and Canada, especially among the tobacco growers, " states the B. &. B. and Dillsboro. L. C. Case made a business trip to Brevard Monday. Mrs. Charlie Wood of Cashiers was the guest of her daughter, Mrs. Floyd Jones, last week. Straub Clayton of Brevard, was a Toxaway visitor last Sunday. BREVARD BOY JOINS FACULTY AT TULANE W. Ernest Merrill, formerly of Brevard, received his M.
