YOUR OLD FAVORITE OQOOOQOQOOOOOOOOOQQOOOOC In The Spotlight By Quentin Enlow •500000000000000000000000 With the 1945 Buncombe County football championship tucked un der their belt, the 1946 edition of the Swannanoa Hi. Warriors ex pect to go places again this year Brock Burgess. under the guidance of Head Coach Burgess, a n ex-servicemane, called the first light practice ses sion for Thursday, August 29. Ex pected to greet him are Jacs Mar tin, frt?sh from overseas duty, Gene Mills, also a returnee, and twelve lettermen. Richard Sides, the backfield ace of last year’s squad, will be back to contribute his service’s again this year. Le roy Baily and Johnny Tipton will also return, but local fans will miss Alger Rainwater, the swift performance for the local team ex-navy lad who turned in a fine last year. The forward wall will have Jay Burgess, brother of the head men tor, L. E. Carroll,. 180 pound tackle, George Dunlap, Red Creas man, Harold Nichols, and John Lee. Local fans will also miss the performance of Kenneth Buchan an, a husky lad who, during the summer, donned the uniform of the U. S. Navy. The Swannanoa boy played first-class ball at the close of last season, after going unrecognized in earlier games. Facing a tough schedule that includes such opponents as Hen dersonville, Canton, Tryon, and Black Mountain, Coach Burgess and the boys face a huge task in protecting the coveted Buncombe County crown. Our hats off this week to Bill Ward, W. N. C. A. sport’s an nouncer, who’s expert analysis keeps fans well up on whats hap pening in the world of sports. If you haven’t heard Bill and his Sideline Slants, dial your radio at 1340 at 6:30 o’clock weekdays, and hear a well-trained sports commentator at work. Hoping to see you at this same spot next week. In the meantime, by all means, BE A GOOD SPORT. Barren Land Nearly half the world’s land area is largely uninhabitable because of deserts, mountains, ice or tundra. SWANNANOA NEWS “Fly” Says Bill Series Os Turns This manuever, known as “Series of Turns,” embodies noth ing which you have not already learnsd, but it will be one of the required maneuvers on your part, be cause it calls for planning, for holding altitude, and for preci sion. This series of turns is done at 1,500 feet, and the excellence of your performance depends on the accuracy and precision with which you make the turns, and on the degree to which you hold your altitude constant. It is necessary that you mem orize the order of this series of turns, which is as follows: 1. Two gentle 90-degree turns; first one into the wind, then one cross-wind. 2. Two medium 180-degree turns; in opposite directions, started when flying cross-wind. 3. One gentle 90-degree turn into the wind. 4. Two steep 360-degree turns made in opposite directions, each started when flying directly into the wind. First: Choose two roads or sec tion lines for your landmarks. They must be at right angles to each other, and the first landmark must be cross-wind. Second: Begin the maneuver by '"lying cross-wind, down your first landmark. As you approach the in tersection of your second land mark, look around for other planes and then make a gently banked 90-degree turn into the wind. Third: Fly straight and level directly into the wind for a few seconds, look for other planes, and make another gentle 90-degree turn in the opposite direction from the first turn. At this point you will again be cross-wind and parallel to the original landmark. Fourth: Fly straight and level for a few seconds, and after check ing for other planes, make a med ium 180-degree turn into the wind, using not more than a 45-degree bank. Again fly straight and level for a few seconds, look for traffic, and make another medium 180-de gree turn in the opposite direc tion. As you finish your second 180- degree turn, you should again be firing cross-wind, parallel to your original landmark. Fifth: Check for planes, and then make a gentle 90-degree turn so that you are again flying into the wind, parallel to the road or section line which is your second landmark. Sixth: Look around, and then make a steep (60-degree bank) 360-degree turn. Fly straight and level into the wind for a few seconds, again check for other planes), and follow immediately w ith another steep 360-degree turn in the opposite direction to your first 360-degree turn. It is important that each turn be completed exactly in line with your landmarks. In other words, they are to be precise 90, 180, and 360 degree turns. It is also very important that you come out of this series of turns at the same altitude as you entered it. Ideally, you should neither gain nor lose altitude on any of your turns, but if you should lose altitude on one turn try to gain it on the next—in other words, keep continually cor recting for errors, and plan ahead so that you will complete the series of turns at exactly 1,500 feet. Remember: During the time you are flying straight and level be tween the various turns, it may be necessary for you to “crab” into the wind in order to keep your flight path parallel to your refer ence landmarks. Look in all directions for other planes, particularly in the direc tion you will be turning! The Southern Cross, found off Australia in 1883, was a group of nine pearls joined naturally in the shape of a cross 1 1-2 inches in length. THE BLACK MOUNTAIN NEWS William L. Stephenson Os Swannanoa Died At His Home Thursday o SWANNANOA—WiIIiam L. Ste phenson, 72, farmer and life-long resident of Swannanoa, died at his home Thursday afternoon about 3:00 o’clock.

A. Stephen son of Asheville. New Poultry Meal Starfish, though a serious pest in oyster beds, may be an asset to poultry growers, the department of agriculture concludes from a series of tests of starfish meal fed to young growing chickens. Shortages of pro tein feeds for livestock led depart ment research workers to experi ment with several materials for merly discarded or poorly utilized by various industries. One was star fish, which oystermen take in quantity in cleaning oyster beds. Whole starfish, when sundried and ground into meal, contains about 39 per cent of protein. 19 per cent of calcium, and smaller quantities of other nutrients including phos phorus. Tests of its suitability for poultry feeding showed that it com pares favorably with sardine meal, familiar as an ingredient of poultry feeds. The tests were with White Leghorn and Rhode Island Red chicks fed diets adequate in all nutrients except those that the starfish and sardine meals were ex pected to supply. Starfish meal proved a good source of protein, but it gave best results when fed in rather small quantities.

Frozen Potatoes French fried potatoes that can be served wither* ‘"-e time-consum ing process of d ying and oven browned potatoes that will only need to be heated through are possibili ties to which American homemak ers can look forward within the next few years. Tests made recently with precooked quick-frozen potatoes at the New Jersey agricultural exper iment station bear out this predic tion. New Jersey-grown Green Mountain potatoes were boiled, baked, french fried, scalloped, and prepared in several other ways and then quick-frozen and placed in a freezer locker unit at the station last fall. A few samples were re moved from the locker, thawed, and reheated at the end of 10 days, and the rest were given the same treat ment four months later. Ihe six men and women who taste-sampled the potatoes in their various forms were of the opinion that although further experiments would have to be conducted to improve the flavor and texture, the results of these first tests were promising. Rhubarb was introduced into western Europe from Russia in the sixteenth century. o Some newspaper presses are capable of producing 300,000 copies an hour. o BLACK MOUNTAIN NEWS » We Urge You To Patronize Our Advertkm.
