SUPERIOR COURT rolls
around again, and while a sizable
group of folks gather for the
sessions of the tribunal, the
event don't draw the mass
crowds of yore, due partially to
the fact, that the people have
other things to do and other
places to go. Also motivating
against the popularity of the
courthouse scene is the fact that
nowadays when a man's indicted,
if the odds seem fair that he will
be convicted, he submits, and the
judge metes out the penalty.
Few trials occur, and the folks
weary after a short stay in the
temple of justice. Autumn, and
the tang of snappy morning air.
Good football weather, the fans
say, and Appalachian's Moun
taineers get going with a victory
in the first game of the season
. . . Lee Gross, former police of
ficer, and friend of ours through
many years, goes away, and we
share the sorrow of the family
and the community at the death
of a good citizen.
? ? ?
LEE GROSS, was on* of the
few officers we had known,
who had an abiding and deep
seated respect for the laws of
the land, and for the society
which had created the statutes
. . . For many long years he
walked to and fro along the
street, preserving the peace
and dignity of the community,
while mixing amiably with the
people, and rendering a help
ing hand wherever possible . . .
Conscientious and sincere. Lee
Groes made an honest effort to
enforce the laws, and that he
was unusually successful was
evidenced by the fact that be
was persuaded back to the
police force on more than one
occasion, when things again
got out of hand ... He lived a
life of devotion to the public
welfare, and will be missed in
the city where he labored so
long and effectively and whece
his friendships were so deeply
established.
FAIR WEEK PASSES, and the
folks had a good time . . . The af
fair was unusually successful and
the exhibits in keeping with the
progress Watauga has made
agriculturally. From the fat
plump Herefords to the big ap
ples, from the big horses to the
dainty picce of needlework, the
fair depictcd the life of a grow
ing farm economy in stricking
fashion, and demonstrated the
fact that pretty nearly every
sort of staple food crop can be
grown here, and that the region
definitely excels in the produc
tion of some of these, and is
without question the mecca for
the cattleman and the sheep
grower . . . Incidentally on every
hand, there is evidence that
farmers are turning more and
more to beef and dairy cattle,
and to the flocks on the hills,
and arc backing away to an in
creasing degree from the row
crops, which have periodically
reacted so disastrously to the
farmers at market time . . . Troy
Norris of Meat Camp, is one of
those who is following this new
method of farming, and says he
has put his entire farm in grass
and other forage crops ... He
finds that millet, cut at the pro
per time provides both roughness
and grain for his cattle, and that
other hay crops fill in and en
able him to get along just as well
without corn crops and without
the laborious and expensive pro
cess of filling silos . . . Troy says
the shortage of farm labor made
a change in his farm program
mandatory, and he likes the
change.
A FEW YEARS AGO. the
Democrat want all out against
tha so-called carnival*, whan
tha attractions had raacbad

and lawlessness that the folia
were crying out loud for relief
. . . The folk* went along with

since that time the folk* have
been saved a small fortune . . .

Freedom Drive
To Begin Here
'On Thursday
The Crusade for Freedom cam
paign (or 1931 will open in Wa
tauga County Thursday, Septem
ber 20, and continue throughout
the month, according to an an
nouncement by Jim Taylor, local
Crusade chairman. (
Mr. Taylor gives the following
information about the Freedom
movement;
The Crusade for Freedom pro
gram was inaugurated in 1950 by
General Lucius D. Clay. Its pri
mary purpose is to combat Com
munist propaganda with demo
cratic truth. Last year over one
and one-third million Americans
signed the Freedom Scroll;. These
were moved to West Berlin as
an everlasting symbol of Ameri
can democracy.
The most effective and con
crete program made possible by
Crusade dollars was the establish
ment of two 129,000 watt radio
transmitters. These have been
beaming the freedom story into
Communist Russia and satellite
nations for the past year. This
voice of truth has been labelled
"Radio Free Europe." It is not
an official organ of the Ameri
can government as is the Voice of
America, but is rather the story of
liberty s# told by escapces from
behind the Iron Curtain.
Plans are already completed
for the building of two additional
transmitters for Radio Free Eu
rope and the establishment of a
Pacific radio network to be de
signed "Radio Free Asia."
"We can all participate in this
important ideological war," Mr.
Taylor writes. ''Freedom Scrolls
are being distributed throughout
the county for your signature.
And the Crusade needs your
dimes and dollars. If you wish to
join in' the war against Commu
nism, mail ypijr .cfceck, regardless
of size, to Crusade for Freidom,
P. O. Box 72, Boone, N. C."
Blue Devils In
Loss To Hudson
Appalachian's Blue Devils
wore handed a shocking 39-0 de
feat by Hudson last Friday
night, on a rain-drenched field.
The game, which was expected
to be very close, turned into a
route with Hudson dominating
the play almost throughout the
game.
Appalachian received the open
ing kick-off and on the first
scrimmage play, Hudson recover
ed a fumble and then drove to
their first score with less than
fives minutes having elapsed in
the game.
Hudson scored two more touch
downs in the first half and, add
ing two extra points, led 20-0 at
half time.
The second half was almost a
repitition of the first half, with
the Hundson team scoring 19
more points. Both coaches sub
stituted freely in the last half.
The game was rough through
out, with many unnecessary
roughness penalties being called,
one of which cancelled a Hudson
TD. The ' Appalachian boys
couldn't hold the ball and lost it
many times on fumbles At least
four bobbles resulted in Hudson
scores.
Jim Brown and Harbin Mor
etz played a good game in the
line for the Blue Devils.
Appalachian meets Flatrock
this Friday in their first home
game of the season.
Coach Bob Nolan states that,
"The game with Hudson is for
gotten. We've found our mis
takes and we're going to correct
them.- We're going to beat that
Hntrock team Friday."
