The Peanut Committee of the North Carolina Farm Bureau and re presentatives of the Virginia Farm Bureau met in a joint meeting at Jackson, N. C., on Friday afternoon. October 30th and canvassed the indi cated yield and quality of the 1936 peanut crop and the carry-over of 1935 peanuts into the approaching marketing season. It was the con sensus of opinion that the carry-over of 1935 peanuts was negligible; and that the cost of producing the 1936 crop of peanuts was much greater than the cost of producing the 1935 crop. In view of the yield and quality of the 1936 crop of peanuts and the small carry-over of 1935 peanuts, it was the opinion of this meeting that the minimum price of Virginia type peanuts grading 60 per cent sound meats should not be less than 4 cents per pound at the farm; and that farmers should not sell under this price. It was unanimously agreed that a diversion of low grade peanuts into oil under a plan similiar to that in augurated by the United States De partment of Agriculture during the early part of the 1935 marketing sea son would be helpful and would sti mulate and sustain the price on bet ter grade peanuts. Plans were formulated looking to an early conference between mem bers of the Peanut Committees of the Farm Bureaus of Virginia and North Carolina and officials of the United States Department of Agri culture for the purpose of working out some oil diversion plan for the 1936 crop of peanuts. Jesse Forehand Taken Back To Augusta, Ga. Following action of the court at Manteo last week, when Judge J. Paul Frizelte refused to grant Jesse Forehand his liberty on the grounds that he was not mentally qualified, Sheriff J. A. Bunch left with Mr. Forehand Wednesday for the Veter ans Hospital at Augusta, Ga. Fore hand had been previously an inmate of the institution, but several weeks ago left the place and arrived in Edenton. After being picked up by Sheriff Bunch a writ of habeas cor pus was granted, Forehand claiming that he was perfectly sane and en titled to live at home. Doctors, however, declared that while he appears normal at times he does not remain so and that he would be dangerous to be at liberty. Teachers’ Meeting In Greenville Nov. 20-21 John A. Holmes and W. J. Taylor attended the meeting of the School masters’ Club held in Hertford Mon day night. At this meeting E. E. Bundy, of Elizabeth City, very ably spoke to the gathering on “The Pro gress of Public Schools in North Carolina During the Past 100 Years.” The northeastern district meeting will be held in Greenville on Novem ber 20-21, at which time the 100th anniversary of public schools in North Carolina will be celebrated. There are 26 units in the north eastern district, 11 of which have 100 per cent membership, this number including Edenton.

Just for reflection, following is; the scores made on the Edenton field, since its defeat at the hands of Eli zabeth City in 1933:. 1933 Edenton—3o; Hertford—o. Edenton— 7; Beaufort —0.

Franklin is reported to have a strong team and is the first Virginia team scheduled since 1934, when the Edenton State champions defeated Suffolk, who that year captured the similar title in Virginia. Franklin, in all probability, will invade Eden ton Friday determined to avenge the defeat of a Virginia team in 1934, and Coach Holton’s charges are equally determined to continue a clean slate so far as home games are concerned. In view of this fact a battle royal is on the docket and fans should turn out in larger numbers than has been the case at previous games this season. The Edenton boys are in good shape for the fracas, though the line will most likely be minus the strength of Josiah Elliott, who was injured in the Elizabeth City game. Melvin Layton in all probability will be in his backfield position following in juries last Friday when he was forc ed to be out the biggest portion of the game. Layton was kicked in the face while attempting to block a punt, a number of stitches being necessary to close the wound. Despite the absence of Layton, however, the Edenton boys last Fri day took on old-time form and turn ed back a stubborn Williamston team to the tune of 14-0. John Byrum was shifted from end to backfield af ter Layton’s injury early in the game and by his powerful driving dragged the pigskin over the line for the first touchdown. Pete Everett, one of the most promising high school players, who is this year play ing his first year of varsity ball, also turned on the steam and ploughed through the defense to score the other counter. The entire team showed up well, giving the general impression that Edenton has again another championship team in the making. Friday’s game will be called at 3:15 instead of the usual time due to the distance the Franklin boys must travel after the game. In an effort to create interest in the game and to attract fans to Hicks Field a pep meeting is being planned to be held tonight in the Court House. Red Cross Call Begins November 11 (Continued from Page One) the south and in flood swept states along the Atlantic Seaboard, the Chairman said the Red Cross gave personal assistance to 370,000 per sons, victims of the most wide-spread and severe catastrophies in recent years. Nationally, in the past year, Red Cross has aided 445,000 disaster victims in a series of 105 catastro phies, both large and small, in 39 of the 48 states. “Although less spectacular than disaster relief, other Red Cross ac complishments in the past year are much more pleasant and gratifying to contemplate.” Mrs. Pruden con tinued. “In North Carolina these in cluded a very substantial increase in home hygiene and first aid instruc tion and equally gratifying progress in Junior Red Cross membership.” “This is your organisation—the People’s Red Cross,” stresses Mrs. Prudsn, “it represents you, and in times of emergency it does for the victims of disaster that which you snnelf would: do, were it possible far. you to visit: each one of them in dividually. “Here in Qtawaii the Red) Cross Soli Call starts on Armistice.

Belated returns maka it impossible to record the entire votes throughout the county for the- different county candidates, nor hqjv the county went (Hi the five constitutional amend ments.

For Governor Hoey carried the county hy 1,363 against 102 for Gris som. United States Senator Bailey was victorious over his rival, Patton, by 1372 to 70, and, of course, Lind sey Warren won by 13TO to 62. The other candidates for State office came out on top by majorities ranging from 1,343 to 1,373, the last cast for Thad Eure, running for Secretary of State.
