All 4-H Corn Club members and their dads are urged to at tend. Assistant Agent Harry Ven ters informs me that the 4-H Com Club members made ex cellent yields last year.

It insoires our Rural Youth “To Make The Best Better.” It also brings a por tion of our town and country toge her to make a better Cho wan County. Scjuppernong Grapes Are Won derful in the home orchard. As far back as I can remember, when scuppernongs were ripe, friends and neighbors gathered : at dad’s grapevine on weekends for a mess of grapes and good fellowship. Also, we had plenty to qat until they were gone. • Mother made grape jelly, grape preserves and canned grape juice wh'ch we enjoyed for many months. Does your place have a good scuppernong vine on it? L so, why not take care of it? It is some trouble to keep up and in shape, but what is worth mjuch .that isn’t some trouble? Now is the time to repair the scaffold., thin out dead wood, and prune the scuppernong vine. This should have been done in November and December but they are very busy months. Some bleeding may occur where live wood is cut but don't worry about that, just try not to cut any large canes. Get the vine up in good shape. Extension Folder 156, “Prun ing and Training Muscadine Grapes,” gives you all the in formation you need. If you want a copy, let us know. It is free at our office. Bunch Grapes Hipen Earlier than the Scuppernong (Musca dine)' and now is the time to work them over. Bunch grapes are varieties such as Fredonia, Ontario, Delaware, Niagara, Ur bana; Catawba, Sheridan and Concord. These vines should be set 10 to 15. feet apart in a row. Use durable posts setting one at each 1 end and one midway between tha \fines. Stretch two or three, vines! a'bouts 15 to 20 inches 'apart: Train a cane or runner each 'way on each wire.

Ahoskie Too Much For Eden ton Aces By BILL GOODWIN Ahoskie’s Indians and Squaws grabbed double Albemarle Con ference victories over the Eden ton Aces and Acelets in a triple header played on the local court Tuesday night. The Edenton Junior Varsity avoided a shutout by taking an 18-16 decision. The Indians came out over the Aces by a 42-31 count, and the Ahoskie girls won 41-28. The Aces, containing Indian shooting ace Bringley Overton with a modified zone, managed to stay fairly close during the first half and trailed at inter mission 20-16. Ahoskie solved the zone in the third quarter and outscored the Aces 12-5 in that period. Both teams ran rough shod in the final eight minutes and gathered in 10 points apiece. Overton, usually a 20-point performer, got only five tallies, but Ruffin Odom scored 13 and Wesley Wise and Earl Dilday made ten each to lead the In dians on. Johnny Phillips and Jerry Tol ley shared honors for the Aces, each getting eight points. Billy Dail scored five. Fred Britton and Bobby Stokely three apiece, and Bryant Griffin and Bill Goodwin two each. The Acelets, trailing 20-11 at the half, rallied to trail by one point at 20-19 before Ahoskie took charge to win handily. Kay Krause took the night’s scoring honors by* bagging 27 points for the Squaws. Mary Anne ;Over ton made 10 and Sara Relfe Smith and Beverly Morgan nine each for the Acelets.
