Thomas) Carolina spoiled State's Home coming. TUlane wrecked Caro lina's celebration, and Duke threw a bad apple in Wake For est's barrel. Now, will the Home coming jinx hold true this week when the Blue Devils, last of the major elevens in the state, go on parade along with Georgia Tech at Durham Saturday? Wallace Wade's damaging Blue Devils have been doing all right for themselves, in spite of what happened to them in Knoxville. Carolina tackles Fordham in New York City, and the Tar Heels will be fighting to protect one of their proudest boasts ? the envia ble record of never having lost in the metropolis. Davidson entertains Centre Col lege at Davidson, and Wake For est plays George Washington at Washington City. State College takes on Furman wit<h a night game at Raleigh, j giving the fans of this section another Saturday double-header. My pick this week: Duke over Georgia Tech. | , Fordham over Carolina. i| State over Furman. Davidson over Centre. Wake Forest over George Washington. j ? ADVISORY COUNCIL The Advisory Council of the Franklin County Unit/ of North j Carolina Education has been or ganized with the following offi cers : Mr. \V. K. -Mills. Advisor. Miss Louliu Jarrnan.

At the first' meeting, held in October, the president of the Council pointed out the objec tives for the County unit during t'he year. Discussions followed as to how the Council could guide 1 the County unit in planning a | program which would help our schools in becoming a unifying force in -the preservation of the "American Way" of life. The interest 6C the local unit repre- ? sents a well-rounded program of professional service, professional growth and wholesome pride in achievement. Definite phases in planning the year's* work which j were adopted are: The develop- | ment of a program adjusted to the present day needs of boys and i girls; secondly. The public rela tion's program; thirdly. The pro fessional relation's program: fourthly. The legislative program and fifthly. The program of teacher welfare. "It seems best to assume as our guiding philosophy that the schools are in reality the pub lic's schools, rather than merely public schools. The schools and all other public service institu tions in the present world crisis face an emergency. There Is not only an emergency, but it is also a period of transition which calls for wisdom, leadership, patience and fortitude of the highest or der. School people generally and the public at large, when proper ly informed maintain a sympa thetic attitude toward their school." The second County meeting will be an "Observation" meeting in Franklinton School system on i Wednesday, November 6th.

Diphtheria . .Again I wish to call the atten- j Uouj.qf parents to the necessity i of ' havfng their small children i vaccinated against diphtheria. Ac- | cording to official figures record- i ed from Washington, D. C., by i Dr. Carl V. Reynolds. State | Health Officer, reports that> North i Carolina led the entire United States in the number of cases of I diphtheria reported during the week of September 28t-h. For North Carolina wTcTi its 1 y 40 population of 3,563,174 there were 46 cases reported as compared with 14 cases for New York with its population of 13, 379,662. Cases reported from sur rounding Southern States, Virgi nia 10, South Carolina 8, Georgia 18, pud Tennessee 10. Do the par ents of North Carolina care less for the protection of tljelr child ren than pa!reqts of ofher States?, I cannot believe it, It must be they do not realize the protection lnnoculat>lon against, diphtheria confers on their children. The last legislature passed a law requiring all parents to have their children inuoculated against diphtheria at six months of age. The Franklin County Healt-h i Department each month notifies ; all parents of children becoming 1 six months of age. of the impor- j tance of vacc<natlon against diph- 1 therla and quotes the State Law. j Parents lets observe this law and stamp diphtheria out of Franklin County.
