Football Drills Start Friday Loulsburg Coach Tommy Twitty has issued a call for all Bulldog grldders to report for the start of football practice Friday night at 7:30 P.M. Coach Twitty reminded squad members that a physical examination is required and said that players could obtain examinations from Or. B. L. Patterson, Dr. Carey Perry or Dr. Doyle Medders. He added there is no charges for such examinations. The Bulldogs have a nine game slate thus far for this year with five games to be played at home. Coach Twitty says he is hopeful he will be able to fill the normal ten-game slate. The open date is the final game of the season, traditionally played against Helena. This school is being consolidated with Roxboro this year. Officers Get 529 Stills During the fiscal year end ing June 30, 1969, special tnveittgators of alcohol, to bacco and firearms in North Carolina seized (529) five hundred twenty-nine illegal distilleriea. The moonshine whiskey the distilleries could produce represents a revenue loss of approximately ((266,101.00) two hundred sixty-six thousand, one hun dred and one dollars every day. The use of old car radia tors and unsanitary equip ment continues to make moonshine whiskey poison enough to cause blindness, paralysis and even death as long as a year after the moon shine has been drunk. (663) Six hundred sixty three persons were arrested during the period for viola tion of federal laws, and (179) one hundred seventy nine vehicles were seized. Speedway To Reopen Oxford ?

Limits Set By Wildlife Commission Raleigh, N. C. - The Wild life Resources Commission has announced the seasons and tug limits on doves, marsh hens, woodcock, and Wilson's snipe. The dates and bag limits were selected from a framework authorized by the U. S. Bureau of Sport Fisheries and Wildlife, Wash ington, D. C. First to open will be shoot ing for doves and marsh hens on Labor Day, September 1. Dove hunting will begin at 12:00 noon and end at sun down daily throughout the season. Shooting hours for marsh hens will be from one half hour before sunrise to sunset. Biggest surprise to game bird hunters is the bag limit on doves: 18 birds daily, 36 in possession after opening day. The Commission was not given an alternative to the 18-36 bird bag limit. Biologi cal studies have shown that 80 percent of the summer population of dove* each year are lost by natural mortality by the beginning of the next breeding season, regardless of whether or not they are hunt ed. The 50 percent increase in the bag limit this year is an experiment to determine whether heavier gunning of doves would have a notice able effect on next year's crop of birds. The increased limit applies only to states east of the Mississippi River. The Commission, despite anticipated complaints from hunters about the usual hot weather around September 1, selected that date because re search has shown that the birds begin leaving the State i ' miitimi'nnii n i ?r. ? ml Meets (Continued from Page 1) overcome racial imbalance It further quoted the Act: "Noth ing herein shall empower any official or court of the United States to issue any order seeking to achieve a racial balance In any school by requiring the transportation of pupils or students from one school to another or one school district to another in order to achieve such racial balance." The Maddox filer also quotes from what it says was a statement by candidate Richard M. Nixon in late 1968: "Federal aid to education has been necessary, and I have supported it. But, I draw the line on one point. If we are going to have federal aid to education, it is the responsibility of those at the national level and particu larly the President of the United States, to see that federal control does not follow. We want federal aid and local control." The flier says ". . .HEW and the courts are in violation of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Appro priations Bill for HEW of 1968, the clearly stated position of the President and the wishes of the people." An announcement this morning out of Raleigh said that Governor Bob Scott "would be unable to attend" the Atlanta meeting and that Superin tendent of Public Instruction Craig Phillips "has other committments."

The peak of ' the dove population will have been pused by September 1, but this was the earliest date allowed by the Bureau. The first segment of the dove season will end October 11. The second segment will run from December 18 through January 15, 1970. Bag limits on marsh hens will be 15 dally, 30 in posses sion after opening day. This limit may include any single species or a combination of seven! species of marsh hens. The Commission chose the latest allowable dates for woodcock and Wilson's snipe to take advantage of flights of birds coming in from New England states. The wood cock season will open on November 28 and run through January 31, with a Wheless, Warren Lose InCGA Two Louisburg golfers failed to make the final rounds in the Carolina Golf Association Tournament at Ptnehurst last week. Kevin Warren, who qualified for the tourney with a 78 was de feated in the first round last Thursday by Buzzy Basinger of Charlotte, 7 and 5. Louis Wheless, Jr., qualifying with a 77 last Wednesday, in the second round by Bob Thomp son of Greenville, 6 and 5 after having defeated Pat Brady of Reidsvllle in the opening round, 4 to 3. Bob Bryant of Charlotte, who played in Warren's bracket, won the title Sunday defeating Steve Walker of Burlington, 10 and 8. One That He Missed "Hat your husband any hobbies?" asked the neigh bor.

Bag limits for snipe are 8 daily and 16 in possession after the Tint day. Seasons on ducks, geese, and other waterfowl are still under consideration by fed eral and state authorities and will be announced early next fall. An excellent crop of birds this year is not expected to be reflected in any impor tant relaxation of seasons and bag limits due to an accum ulated shortage of birds dur ing the past decade. Finch Injured, Misses North-South Tilt Big Thomas had one more football game to play. Unless, by some miracle, he managed to overcome aome very large obstacles and land on a college team, Thomas Finch looked forward to the North-South AU Star game as one final fling at the thing he does best- play football. But the unkind genie that struck Finch a little less than a year ago in the game at Norlina, also had one more fling. A bad fall which tore a knee ligament sidelined the All-East end and linebacker for most of the remaining season. Last week, practicing for Saturday night's contest. Finch injured the same knee on the opposite side. Sources say that another operation will be needed to correct the injury. Needless to say, the latest stroke of bad luck prevented the Louisburg ace from participating in the important game played at East Carolina University Saturday night. The North squad won, 26-14 and this, perhaps brought some joy to an otherwise disappointed Louisburg graduate. And on this sour note, an outstanding prep grid career may have ended.
