SPKING SCHEDULES SLIM
This time of the year,' there is usually
very little happening on the local sports
scene. The college Is playing baseball, as
is some high school teams and the Green
Hill Golfers are participating in the Green
Pastures weekly tournaments.
There is plenty of news forth coming about
the ACC baseball. . . and of course the M a
jor Leagues, but very little can be found
out about things happening under our noses.
We still do not have a schedule for any of
the high -school baseball teams. We have
Franklinton's Track Schedule, but never
any results of the meets.
Louisburg High School baseball team we
hear, is not as strong as in years past. Thoy
lost at least one game to Raleigh Enloe" last
week.
There has been no news on Softball lea
gues this year. However, we feel certain
there will be one at Pearce's.
Those of you that are in charge of local
sporting events are invited to send us in
formation of your teams or leagues. We'll
be happy to use it.

Off The Record Comments
By T. H. Pearce
I am t quite certain that Joe
Moss Is very proud of his well
deserved honor In being select
ed one of the four leadH^Wm
ers in the entire country, but 1
don't see how he can be any
prouder of his award than Is
Jaycee President Ralph Knott.
Now, 1 haven't sepn joe, but
I have seen Ralph and Pm here
to tell you he is beaming. As
a matter of fact, every mamber
of the Jaycees that r v? seen,
sitae the award was announced
In Tulsa, Oklahoma,' Tuesday
night, has had a mighty satis
fied expression on his face.
The way I see it, about all
that is left to bring honor to
the local group Is for them to
have a Miss Louisburg Pageant
winner to go on to win the Miss
America Pageant. And don't
think for one minute that It
can't happen. >
Joe Moss has proved to the
entire nation that Franklin
County can produce farmers
that are equal to any In the
world. A whole lot Qf us have
known for years that Franklin
Hicks Speaks
To Lions
At Youngsville
Mr. Robert Hicks, who is a
member of the Loulsburg Res
cue Service Squad, was guest
speaker at the Youngsville Lions
Club meeting held Tuesday night
at the community house.
introduced by Lion A. E. Hall,
Mr. Hicks presented a most In
formative talk on survival In
case of nuclear war attack.
Literature from the Department
of Defense on fallout protection,
first aid, and Home protection
were given out to members. A
number of Youngsville citizens
remember Mr. Hicks as one of
the" capable teachers of a First
Aid Class taught at the com
munity house.
President Ray Pearce presid
ed at the meeting. Welcomed as
guests were two members from
the Warrenton Lions Club,
Lions Clyde Whltford and Allen
Tucker, who spoke briefly In
behalf of Deputy District Gover
nor Monroe Gardner of Warren
ton. Gardner Is now a candidate
for District Governor of Dis
trict 31-G.
Mr. Robert Cooper was In at
tendance as guest of Lion J.T.
Allen. "(R.E.C.)
G. A.'s Meet
The Centervllle and Wood G.
A.'s met with Paula Gupton
Saturday April 6 at 7-30 p.m.
Dene Ward called the meeting
to order. The Opening hymn
was, "We've a Story To Tell
To TV Nation." The devotional
was read by Miriam Leonard.
The Centervllle roll called and
minutes read by Stella Neal.
The Wood roll called and minu
tes read by Margarett Jones.
Then all of the members said
together, the G. A. Allegiance
and Watchword.
Paula Gupton was In charge of
the program, titled "Philippine
Puzzle." Seven members and
the Counselor Mrs. Eula Ber
tha Collins took part In the
program.
Refreshments served were:
lemonade and assorted cookies^
County girls are the best look
ing ones to be found; so now
all we have to do Is sit back
and wait.
J think It Is a great honor
for FrankHn County to have Joe
Moss win and all of us are
just as proud of him as are the
Loulsburg Jaycees who spon
sored him In the contest, but
HI have to admit It didn't sur-'
prise me one bit. I had read
his qualifications and knew that
it was beyond the realm of
possibility for him not to be
selected.
You may remember In one of
the columns I wrote last week,
I mentioned a lady that used
some liquid detergent by mis
take when she was cooking corn
bread. Picked up the bottle of
detergent Instead of cooking oil.
Well, I have a sequel to that
sad story, and unbelievable as
It seems, it was told to me for
the absolute truth.
Seems that one day this week
the same lady w as getting ready
to do some washing. She filled
her automatic . washer with
clothes, then called for her maid
to hand her that bottle of liquid
detergent on the shelf In the
kitchen.
This was done by the maid, or
at least that was what they
thought until they noticed a
definite lack of suds In the ma
chine. She Investigated and found
the contents of the washer to be
very much on the greasy side.
As you may have surmlssed
by now, In this case she had
added cooking oil to the wash
er Instead of the detergent.
Just the opposite from what
she had done with the cornbread.
My advice to her would b? to
start keeping those two bottles
In separate rooms. Just doesn't
look as though it Is going to
work out, keeping them on the
same shelf.

Speaking of politics, as I
sometimes do, I noticed anoth
er happening recently which I
added to things the government
does which I am at a loss to
understand.
In the dally papers one morn
ing recently there was a story
about a "Hate The United
States" meeting which was be
ing held In Brazil. Seems that
representatives from 78 nations
Including Russia, Red China,
and Cuba were meeting for the
purpose of denouncing the U.S.
and praising Castro and Com
munism.
Over the radio that same
afternoon I heard on a news
program that Congress had ap
proved a $398 million loan to
Brazil and postponed payment
of the $1.5 liilllon they already
owe us.
Seems that according to this
system, If T.S. would quit brow n
nosing and start talking about
how much he hates the Kennedys
he might get even more than
he had been hoping for.
Divorce Granted
London ? Emma PUklnfton
decided to gel a dovorce from
her husband 44 years after he

Previously she had refused
him a divorce when he told her

However, when aba learned the
