MpraMnlative of lha Social Security Ad- I ministration, is in Edanlon every Thursday at the North Caro. / Una Employment Security Commission in Citisens Bank Farm landlords over the age of 65 have started filing claims for their social security benefits. The number of such claims will reach a peak early in 1958, after farm ers have filed their 1957 tax re turns. The 1954 law which covered self-employed farmers beginning with 1955, did provide cover age for any landlord receiving rental income from his farm land. This meant that many landlords whose sole business was farming and who actually took part in the farming operations were denied the protection of the Social Se curity Act. To remedy this, Con gress in 1956, changed the law so that a landlord who by arrange ment with the tenant or share farmer takes part in producing a crop and whose activities signifi cantly affect the amount of the crop, will have his net income from this activity credited to his social security account.

The game was played at the Na tional Guard armory in Edenton. Three NAAS players hit for dou ble figures as the local team could do no wrong. Leading scor er was Chuck Bates (VMA-211) with 24 points, followed by Don Holman (PMA-211) with 17 points and John Block 14), 13 points. All-Star Lieutenant Harold E. Shore (MABS-14), used every member of the team present as he striv ed to pick out the best combi nation. Other members of the team are: Dave Fenty (HEDRON-1), Bill Snider, Chuck Wepner, Don Christensen, Francis Conneeny, Sam Epps, Bill Smith, George Tfrqrnpron (all from MABS-14), Aubry Cornelius, Mike Szyman ski, Walt Stephenson (from VMA-11), Jim Owens and Bob Haggard (from H&MS-14). On the 4th of January, Chowan College beat the Medical College of Virginia by a score of 73-62, so it looks as if the local team may have a pretty fair group representing the base. Lt.

Mrs. Babylon DAR Speaker The January meeting of the Edenton Tea Party Chapter of DAR was held at the home of Mrs. J. L. Pettus. After group and committee re ports, Mrs. Eugenia Babylon, Pet tigrew Regional Library director, gave a very illuminating and in teresting talk on the library movement in the state. She traced the history of North Carolina libraries from their be ginning as a project of the State Federation of Women’s Clubs to the present. As the first South ern state to organize a Library I Commission, and in spite of the depression and other set-backs, North Carolina libraries, she said, with their many bookmobiles are now serving even the remotest sections of the state. She also gave a history of the organization of the Shepard-Pruden Memorial Library and what it has meant to the community. Mrs. Babylon concluded her remarks with an explanation of the various func tions of the regional library set up and the duties of its officers and librarians. Tea was served by the hostess es, Mrs. Lloyd Griffin, Mrs. W. I.; Hart and Miss Ann Harless.
