C f TRIXIE WELLS AND HER ALL QX&L. BAND i !?' On Stage at Louisburg Theatre, Tuesday, Nov. 12th This Week's Big 5 Schedule (By E. F. Thomas) Wake Forest and State Col lege will fight it out at Kaleigh Saturday for the foot'ball cham pionship of Wake County. This promises, as usual, to be a hard fought contest. Wake seems to be in very good shape for this game and State has a number of injured players that will not' get into the contest. Duke entertains the Wildcats from Davidson at' Durham. Of course Duke will win. but the scrappy Davidson outfit always puts up a strong fight, and quite a number of fans will journey over to see the Dike's prepare for t'he big game with Carolina at Chapel Hill on the following Sat- [ urday. Carolina journeys up to the Old Dominion capital ?0 take on Richmond University. This will probably be a good work-out for Carolina, as Richmond seems to have one of the best l?ams among the Virginia colleges this seasou. My pick for winners this week are: , Wake Forest over State. Duke over Davidson. Carolina over Richmond. Although tractor tires were first sold in 1932, approximately 85 per cent of all farm tractors made in 1939 were equpiped with rubber pneumatic tires at the factory. RENEW VOl'R SLH^ nii'TION .
