! &ft S. SECOND TEAM
'•WINS FROM E, CITY
Outweighed, Second Stringers Show
* They Have the Making of
Good Football Material '
Although outweighed, the Edenton
High School second string football (
team on Monday afternoon were able
to "turn back the Elizabeth City sec
ond team by a count of 7 to 6. Both
teams played an excellent brand of
football, carrying out their signals
with precision and displaying a grow
ing knowledge of the game. The
contest was thrilling from start to
finish and provided as much interest
to the large number of spectators as
do the games of the first team. KTuch 1
favorable comment was heard re
g&ding the game which augurs well
for a large attendance at any subse
qeunt gamse by the second stringers.
They have thus far played two
v games, coming out with the long end
hb-the score in both instances.
Coach Brogden has been compli
mented for his efforts in developing
this second team, for fans realize
that in order for the school to con
tinue to be represented by creditable
teams new material must be contin
uously developed. And this is being
done, the coach already having
several players he could substitute
for first team men in event of any
injuries. This is a new situation at
the local Bchool for heretofore about
the only practice second string men
had was what they learned in prac
tice work on the field. Now eleven
(flkjupre players are receiving actual
experience in the game and will be by
far better equipped to replace a
player on the first string. *
t Every boy played a bang-up game
Monday and each one deserved much
credit, but the outstanding playing of
Sid White at left end and Pete
Everett and Clyde Spencer at the
halfback positions were particularly
noticeable. White was in the major
ity of the plays irrespective of which
end it was around, while Spencer,
aided by good blocking, made a
number of excellent gains. Pete
Everett easily displayed that he is
of first string calibre, making consid
erable gains by his driving ability as
vK*l as displaying a brand of open
field running that would be a credit
to.the first team. This chap has
promise of becoming one of the most
outstanding football players the
school has ever produced, being able
creditably perform any duty re
quired of a player.
For Elizabeth City Fearing was the
chief ground gainer, and scored their
touchdown by intercepting a pass. A
play through the line for extra point
failed.
Edenton scored its touchdowns on
a series of gams by straight foot
ball and scored when Pete Everett
broke through the line and by a sen
sational piece of sidestepping and
stiff arming plunged through the en
tire Elizabeth City team for a score.
Stanley Spruill also plunged through
“££e line for the extra point which
2 won the game.
I The Edenton lineup included Coz
zens, center; Billy Shepard and Geo.
wjp-d, guards; Edward Bass, Ewell
Hdbbs and Tom Byrum, tackles; Fred
Hoskins, Sid White and Bill Which
ard, ends; Robert Chesson, quarter
back; Clyde Spencer and Pete Ever
ett, halfbacks, and Stanley Spruill,
fullback.

tIBUTE OF LOVE TO
\ MRS. ANNIE R. JORDAN
; Wt 3 o’clock last Friday morning,
}'_-'Ovember Ist, 1935, Mrs. Annie Rob
inson Jordan, age 69, passed into the
Great Beyond. A faithful soul com
muned with her God and found the
reward for her faith and trust in the
sweet peace and contentment that
our Father bestows on His chosen
ones. We know that all is well with
her soul. In her heart there was
only love, in her soul nothing but
purity. She was a benediction to all
who were troubled. Her life has
been a golden ray of sunshine that
jjvill never fade, but illuminate the
souls of her loved ones and prepare
them for the sweet peace that is the
gift of God’s love. With only a
thin veil between us, we know she is
waiting and watching. Her Smiling
face is a memory to comfort those
who loved her so. Her love for her
church friends and her flowers has
givcti her many hours of happiness,
Hid we know her prayers have all
been answered.
Numbers of her colored friends
grieved at her passing, but they
know tljat a good woman has fulfill-
Sher duties.
e awaits the coming of loved ones
Who will meet her on Canaan’r Happy
shore.
0 blessed sleep that will not break,
For tears nor prayers nor love’s
sweet sake.
0 perfect rest that knows no pain
No throb nor thrill of heart or brain,
fife sublime beyond all speech
That only the pure through dying
reach
We bid His beloved a long good night
ONE WHO LOVED HER.

Center Hill P. T. A.
Holds Second Meet
The second meeting of the Parent-
Teachers Association of Center Hill
school was held in the school audi
torium on Friday evening, Nov. 1, at
7:30 o’clock, with Mrs. C. C. Nixon,
president, presiding.
The regular routine of business
was carried forth and ten new mem
bers added to the roll. A member
ship committee composed of Miss
Virginia Cale, Mrs. E. C. Perry and
Mrs. C. H. Davis,, was appointed by
the president. The program com
mittee for next meeting, composed
of Mrs. C. T. Jordan, Miss Nellie
Davis and Miss Dorothy Perry, was
also appointed.
A very enjoyable and appropriate
Hallowe’en program was rendered by
the school children. Black cats,
ghosts, goblins, and witches galore
roamed about, adding to the weird
scene made by the Jack-o’-lanterns
which furnished the only light for
the occasion. After the program,
numerous games and stunts were en
joyed. Much merriment resulted
from the humorous contests indulged
in. Quite a large crowd of visitors
were present.
The next meeting will be held on
Friday evening, Dec. 6, at 7 o’clock.
Every patron is requested to be
present.
Mrs. J. H. Byrum is secretary of
the Association.
Giving’ Examinations
For Driver’s License
For the benefit of those who have
not applied for their automobile
driving license, examinations will be
held at-the Police Department Tues
days and Fridays. These tests will
be given to ascertain if applicants for
licenses are familiar with proper
signals for stopping and turning as
well as other requisites in connection
with safe driving.
Those who apply for a driver’s li
cense will be assessed sl, the licenses
being free up until November 1.
Many driver’s licenses have been
received from the State Department,
but there is yet a large number who
are still without the license.
Error Made In Fee
Paid To Mrs. Bunch
The Herald was in error last week
regarding the fee received by Mrs.
Maurice Bunch for recording the
largest mortgage in Chowan County,
being that of the Virginia Electric
Power Company for property assign
ed to the Chase National Bank c
New York. The Herald reported
that Mrs. Bunch would receive $265,
which in fact is just about twice the
amount of the fee that she will get,
the actual amount being $132.50
However, the Power people realizing
the tremenduous amount of worl
placed on Mrs. Bunch agreed t<
make the check an even $l5O. This
correction is gladly made.
It is rather significant, however,
that for the recording of the same
mortgage in Perquimans County, only
12 miles away, the fee is $264. In
Perquimans County a special law is
in force that calls for fees about
twice as high as Chowan for both the
register of deeds and clerk of court.
Perplexing 1 Problems
Worry Councilmen
Town' Council was confronted with
two perplexing problems Tuesday
night when the question of connect
ing to the sanitary sewer, cable up
for discusdTon as well as the payment
of about a half-month’s back salary
to school teachers.
In the former instance laws are
on the State books for forcing con
nection to sewer lines, but the Coun
cilmen are not desirous of placing
ary hardships at present on residents
or corporations, but are very anxious
that; the sewer lines will be used as
rapidly as connections can be made.
Requests have been made by the
teachers to members of the Council
to aid in securing their remaining
backi pay, but the Board was of the
opinion that this matter is entirely
in th* hands of the Board of Educa
tion, and no action was taken.

GROCERS APPEAR .
BEFORE COUNCIL
Seek Protection From Itinerant Fruit
Trucks Selling Merchandise
During Holiday Season
i
A big portion of the time of the 1
Town Council’s meeting Tuesday
night was taken up when local gro- ]
cers appeared before the Board seek- \
ing protection from itinerant peddlers t
coming into town during the holiday (
season, selling fruits and various j
other holiday items, thus cutting
materially into local sales during the (
two or three months of the year ,
when business is at is best, and tak- ,
ing away the cream of the profit.
The merchants explained to t.he |
Town Fathers that these hucksters ,
use the town lot free of charge, while
home merchants are obliged to pay ,
rent and taxes during the entire year J
when business is poor or bad, and at
the same time these itinerants peddle
all over town. They felt that it was
an injustice to them and asked the
Councilmen to give them the protec
tion they deserved.
The Councilmen agreed with the
merchants that it was an injustice to
them and together with W. D. Pru- ,
den, city attorney, the laws were ,
scanned, with the result that Coun
cil’s hands were tied regarding the
levying of a tax high enough to pre
vent fruit trucks coming in during
the holiday season.
The grocers who appeared before
the Board were J. A. Curran, Earl
Goodwin, M. L. Flynn, P. T. Owens.
C. E. Byrum and Graham Byrum.
