ported.
“From the applications already re

clared, “we should have one of the
largest and finest livestock shows in
history at the 1953 State Fair Oc
tober 20-24. Among the entries al
ready on hand are a number of out
standing herds of dairy, beef and
dual-purpose cattle from other
states.”

cattle show are “open to the world”.
The three “open” beef cattle breeds
are Hereford, Aberdeen-Angus and
Shorthorn Entries in the Brahman
breed of beef animals are restricted
to North Carolina owners.
“If prospective exhibitors of live
stock have not yet received a copy of
the State Fair Catalog and Premium
List,” said Dr. Pou, “there is still
time to receive a free copy by writ
ing: Manager, N. C. State Fair, P.
O. Box 1388, Raleigh. The catalog
includes a copy of the official entry
form which must be used in filing ,
applications for bam space.”

What Do You Know About
Motor Vehicle Laws? j
The horn on my car is broken. A
friend told me the law says I must
have one. Is this true ?
Z.E.R.—Morehead City.
Yes, the Motor Vehicle Manual
states that every motor vehicle op
erated on the highway must have a
horn. This horn must produce a warn
ing sound audible at a distance of at
least 200 feet. Furthermore, the
book says horns should not emit
harsh or unreasonably loud sounds.
Which is another way of saying com
pression whistles, sirens, or other
noisy devices are prohibited on pri
vate motor vehicles.
Education is our only political safe
ty. Outside of this ark all is de

John Whitson Races 31
Yards for Edenton’s
Touchdown
Coach Bun Perry’s Edenton Aces
were forced to return home from Wil
liamston Friday night with a 6-6 tie
game. The Aces got off to a sluggish
start and it was not until the second
half until they began to click.
Williamston scored a touchdown
late in the second quarter climaxing
a 77-yard march when Billy Glover
crashed over from the two-yard line.
During the drive Bobby Mobley, Bill
Lassiter and Jake Zeamon alternated
in adding yardage.
In the third quarter the Aces look
ed more like themselves and early in
the fourth quarter they scored a
touchdown. Starting at the William
ston 38, the Aces in four plays chalk
ed up a touchdown. The drive was
sparked by John Earl Whitson, who
gained the majority of yardage and
thrilled Edenton fans when he spotted
a hole in the Green Wave line and
raced 31 yards to score.
The Aces again threatened when
they advanced to the Williamston 35,
but lost the ball on a fumble.
Out of the Aces’ lineup were Robert
Twiddy, Sonny Wright and Ray Rog
erson, who are on the injured list.
Jimmy Harrison was also forced to
leave the gams early in the second
quarter due to an ankle injury.
Bill Hardison at center was easily
the outstanding defensive flayer for
the Aces, while Cecil Miller and Ted
Wright played a splendid brand of
ball.
For Williamston, Glover and Lassi
ter were best on offense and Har
ris, Carraway and Perry looked best
on defense.
