The s,Ze of the vote cast, they sav,

The "Nickels for Know-How"
Flan, worked out by farm leaders
themselves, calls for an assessment
o five cents per ton to be added to
cost of all feed and fertilizer
sold in the State.
The average farmer would pay
?bout 23 cents a year, and the J
8mount collected would be aD
rrortmately $125.000 a year. All
th? Pcoceeds would be turned
ttZF t the AerlcU,turaI Founda
tion. Inc., at State College to pro
mote research and the dissemina
tion of research findings.
No expense would be involved in
collecting the money This would be
done at the manufacturer's by the
State Department of Agriculture
?long with the collection of regu
lar inspection fees.
Agricultural leaden point out
that the nickel per to assessment
would he a contribution and not
? tafc. Any fanner desiring to do
so could obtain a refund of all the
"?Mf ha had paid in.

M.Sgt. Lee M.Martin
Downs 1,200 lb. Elk
Lowry Air Force Base, Denver?
M/Sgt. Lee M. Martin, son of W. 1
R. Martin, of Suit, is believed to J
have downed the first elk in Colo
rado this season.
One of Lowry's top sportsmen,
Sgt. Martin is sending the hide,
hooves and head to Mr. Martin for
mounting and preservation.
When Sgt. Martin first sighted
the 1,200 pound bull, darkness
hr.d just begun to fall and scat- j
ered shrubbery separated him
from his target, some 450 yards '
away.
"My first shot was way off," j
said Sgt. Martin. "When I found
I the range, I pumped three quick
ones into him?one hit him in the
t front leg, and two in the lungs.
After the last shot in the lungs,
i the bull dashed about 500 yards
before it fell."
Martin moved the carcass from
| the woods by jeep. He took it to
his brother-in-law's ranch near
fort Collins Colo.
"After we finished skinning the
carcass and cutting the meat, I was
so nervous I couldn't light my
pipe." Martin said. "That's when
you begin to think of the possibil
ity of missing the shop. I would
have died if I had missed, that
shot!"
Sgt Martin explained that ha
was out to get elk and wasn't in
terested la deer.
The elk dressed out at 640
pounds; antlers were 48 high and
33 wide.
Three months ago, Martin
cau"ht the largest trout reported
"y Lawry personnel this season,
a five pound, 23 inch German trout.

Andrews Wildcats
Play Hayesville
In competition with the highly
tauted Bryson City-Franklin foot
ball encounter, the Andrews Wild
cats felt that some of their fans
might not be present, so in appre
ciation to those who were loyal
Friday night, the Wildcats turned
on all their power and delivered a
ball game that satisfied even the
most demanding customer.
Having lost to the Hayesville
Yellowjackets earlier in the sea
son, the Andrews lads were more
than egar to even the score Fri
day. Having bittled through the
first quarter without a scoring
threat, an Andrews fumble gave
Hayesville the ball on the Andrews
14 yard line as the quarter ended.
Setzer went off tackle for the
score and Hayesville led 6-0. The
conversion failed. The two teams
battled on even terms, with neither
chalking up enough yardage to
threaten, until the Yellowjackets
took to the air. As Harris Crisp
let loose a long pass, Andrews'
Loyal Trull intercepted on the 38
stripe and raced 62 yards for the
touchdown. Hayesville would-be
ticklers were breathing down
teammates' blocking he avoided
Trull's neck, but with the help of
them. Gene Griggs kicked the cru
cial extra point and Andrews led
7-6. The final period was one of
desperate defense by the Wildcats
and desperate scoring attempts by
the Yellowjackets.
The Yellowjackets came into the
game with only one defeat to their
record, having lost a tight game to
Franklin 7-6. The Wilcats had suf
fered two defeats, one to Franklin
and the other to Hayesville.
A lot of credit is due the Wild
Cat team and their coach, Hugh
Hamilton, for marked Improvement
as the season has progressed and
for teamwork that makes it ex
tremely difficult to single out out
standing players. Big. L. V. Blay
lock, versatile end, had been de
livering some excellent punts as
well as playing consistent alert de
fence and offence. A well rounded
backfield has shown Bay Adams <
supplying the driving power,'
Griggs and Frazier speed. Loyal |
Trull and Cecil Rogers defensive
alertness.
A couple of wide awake lines
men prove that size isn't the most i
important thing in football as is |
illustrated by Lawin Truett, one I
of the smaller men and Merrill
Trull, among the larger. Both boys
consistently give a good account
of themselves.
Fans have watched the chang
ing starting line up from game to I
game showing that a good fresh-'
man can upset an upper classman
who doesn't put his best into the
game. Bench warming is one of the
most enlightening occupations of
football players.
This week the Wilcats travel to
Robtinsville. Past laurels hold
