The Aces had won four straight (
games, but with tension high in the
hope of defeating the Yellow Jackets,
the Aces made a few miscues which
figured in the scoring against them. I
The two teams played on about
even terms in the first quarter, but in
the second quarter, tho Yellow Jackets
made two of their three touchdowns.j
The first came after McGee snagged
an Edenton pass, but Edenton recov

Aces were forced to punt and so were |
the. Jackets, but the. ball went out on;
the two-yard line. On third down'
Stiliey fumbled and it whs the Jack
ets’ ball on the six. In four downs
Smith managed to plough through the]
Aces’ line to score. Try for extra j
point failed.

intercepted Holland’s pass on the
Jackets’ 48 and wiggled his wav to
the Aces’ 24. McGee then, passed to
Smoak. who raced for the second
touchdown a few seconds .before the
half ended. Price’s kick was good
for the extra point, so that the sir re
at half time was 13-0.

hall for another first down and lacked
only inches for a second first down
when Holland crashed through to
make it. Another pass, was grabbed
bv Stiliey for a first down and then
Holland connected with Rogerson who
was pulled down oh; the one yard
stripe, from where. Holland crashed
through right guard for the touch
down. Stillev’s try for extra point j
failed.
The. Yellow Jackets added their I
third fi'Whdown in the waning sec

4-H Boy Uses ITnioue
Method To Determine
Sex Os You ns: Chicks
[ Edgar Leon Halsey, Jr., has found
j what, he thinks to he a fairly sitccess
i ftil method of determining the sex of
|young; chicks. He picks them un in
j his fingers by the neck and holds them
for about: 30; seconds. If the chick
kicks up, to about 30;.'seconds, it is a
rooster; if it only kicks for about two
j to five seconds, it is a pullet.
Edgar started a 1-H project of 12
chicks recently and used this method.
jHe wanted eight pullets and four cock.-,
rets and used this method which prov
jed to he 100 per cent accurate this
. particular time. Although Edgar does
not at this time intend to become a
professional at chick sex determina
tion, lie plans to select all his poultry
j chicks in the future using this meth
od.
Justly to discriminate, firmly to es
tablish, wisely to prescribe, and hon
estly to award—these are the true
aims and duties of criticism.
