Silently standing Weeds and grass appear to be about to overtake this boxcar as it stands waiting for a chance at a cargo. The weather and elements are also taking toll on the train car. With a new coat of paint, some rust remover and some grease squirted into the fittings, this old car may once again be ready to move from its Hoke County location. Turkey Olympic plans shape up Plans for the first Turkey Olym pics have been nailed down, and the competition is sharpening its nails to dig in for the six events scheduled. The Olympics will begin at 3:30 p.m. behind the Raeford Depot during September 21 Turkey Festival Activities. Here is a list of the events and rules of the Olympics: ?Costume - Turkey will be judg ed by Most Original Costume. Costume must stay on turkey dur ing judging. ?Fattest - Turkey will be judged , by weight. ?Slalom Race ? Five traffic cones will be set up 10 ft. apart and each turkey must complete the race by going in and out each cone from start to finish. Coaches may not touch his turkey once the race has started, to do so will eliminate yourself. If bird misses a cone, he must turn around and complete the turn to qualify as a finisher. There will be five lanes running at a time. Each winner from each heat will compete for the final winner in a timed slalom race. ?High Jump - Turkey will be given two attempts at each height. Failure to either jump within 15 seconds or to complete the jump successfully will eliminate your turkey. Heights will start at six in ches, going to another six inches, then followed by two inch inter vals. ?Ealing Race - Each turkey will be given Vi cup food and timed. The turkey to eat all his food the fastest wins. ?Fastest - GOBBLER'S GRAND GALLOP - There will be 10 lanes, SO ft. long, with each lane being 3 ft. wide. Each winner from each heat will compete for the "Grand Champion" in a timed final race - you may not touch your turkey once the race starts. Each turkey does not have to stay in his lane, but must remain within the 10 lane boundary. To deviate from the lane boundary will elminate your turkey. Each coach may use two household brooms to encourage his turkey. No other devices will be allowed. At no time will any brutality be permitted. At the completion of the Olym pics all locally given out turkeys will be collected. Registration forms are available at the Raeford-Hoke Chamber of Commerce, The News-Journal, Howell Drug, Western Auto, Southern National and United Carolina Bank. Turkey Parade Wed. Sept. 18 - 6:00 p.m. Main Street There will be an opening parade for the Turkey Festival. All Olympic entered turkeys are asked to participate in the parade. When coaches pick up your turkey on Wednesday, September 18, they will be given a small holding cage. This cage can house your turkey for the parade, but coaches are asked to make some type of transport arrangements for the parade - Example, turkey in a cage in a red wagon, wheel barrow, pulled or pushed by yon. Turkeys will not walk the distance of the parade route. After the parade each person may choose to keep his turkey in a suitable pen (dog pen, enclosed fenced area) or the turkey Olympic committee will make arrangements to house your turkey until Satur day. Food will be distributed. If coaches can work with the turkey between the parade and the Olympics, it is suggested, but not mandatory. Completes 30 Annie P.
