Sampson Plans '
Big Farm Fesf
During a recent meeting of the
Sampson County Agriculture Work
ers Council it was voted to ask
busine. ~ leaders, professional peo
ple and those interested in Samp
son County Agriculture to join in
a "BIG TFST” for Sampson Coun
ty The "BIG TEST” refers to a
soil testing program for every farm
in Sampson County.
The good farmers in our county
have followed soil test recommen
dations for several years and can
attest to 'he fact that it gives them
some information about their land
that they do not get from practi
cal experience alone. The Agri
culture Workers in our county
have stated that information gain
ed from soil test reports help them
more accurately to recommend the
right amounts and the right analy
ses of fertilizers as well as lime.
Information gained from these soil
tests also tell us that many times
a farmer is buying too much phos
phoric acid in his fertilizer and
too little potash. Soil tests tell us
that sometimes we are fertilizing
some crops too much and other
crops not enough. Members of
the Agriculture Workers Council
believe that several hundred thou
sand dollars can be realized by
our Sampson County farmers us
ing the right analyses and the
right amounts of fertilizers and(
lime on the various crops.
Heading up the soil testing com
mittee is Frank Harris, County
Agricultural Agent and J. B.
Boone, Midway Agriculture Teach
er as Co-Chairman. Serving with
them are representatives of the
following agencies: Soil Conserva
tion Service, Negro Extension,
Negro Home Economics Teacher,
Agriculture Conservation and Sta
bilization, White Home Economics
Teachers, Farm Homes Adminis
tration, The White Home Econom
ics Agents and two fertilizer deal
ers, This Committee held its first ’
meeting on Monday afternoon of
this week and set up its organiza
tion for the “BIG TEST”.
The county was divided into dis
tricts, townships and areas with
in a township and certain mem
bers of the Agriculture Workers
Council were made responsible
for an education^ campaign, dis
tribution of materials, picking up
.soil samples at designated points,
and delivering them to a central;
county warehouse.
Read your local papers and tune j
in radio station WRRZ to get fur
ther announcements concerning
soil test materials and how you
might do on accurate job in tak
ing your soil samples. It will pay
you to make plans to cooperate in
this soil testing campaign by tak
ing a sample from all your fields
and helping your neighbors do the
same.
The slogan for this big test is “It
Pays To Be Sure”.

Snead Gaining
On Grid Records
GREENSBORO (UPI) — Wake
Forest quarterback Norman Snead,
who became only the fourth “1,
OOO-yard” back in Atlantic Coast
Conference history last weekend,
will write three new ACC records
if he can complete at least five
passes for a minimum of 40 yards
against South Carolina Saturday.
Snead, who completed nine pas
ses for 196 yards and two touch
downs in a 31-33 loss to Clem
son's new conference champs last
weekend, is on the very brink of
new standards in total offense,
pass completions and passing
yardage.
The Deacon junior now has
1.109 yards in total offense-just
39 yards shy of the ACC record
of 1,148 set by N‘>rth Carolina's
Jack Cummings last fall. He has
70 pass completions, four short of
the record 74 thrown by Virgin
ia’s Arnold Dempsey in 1958. And
he has gained 1,116 yards pass
ing, just 21 less than the confer
ence record of 1,137 set by Cum
mings a year ago, according to
latest ACC Service Bureau com
pilations. ,
S^ead also n»w has thrown
nine scoring passes this fall, only
two short of the ACC record of
11 shared by Cummings and Cle
mson's Harvey White. Cummings,
White and former Deacon full
back Bill Barnes are the only
other ACC backs ever to emerge
from a complete season with a
net of 1,000 or more yards in to
tal offense.
Snead is not closely challenged
in either total offense or passing
with only one game remaining
before the 1959 season goes into
the record books.
But Jim Joyce of Maryland,
j back on top as the rushing lead
t er, is very much in the chase
| for the season ground - gaining
i title. Joyce, with 485 yards, is
followed by Phil Lavoie of South
Carolina with 471 yards, Joel Ar
' rington of Duke with 435 and
! Doug Cline of Clemson with 415.
1 Of the four, Arrington has the
| best rushing average - 5.1 yards
I a try.
| N. C. State’s Roman Gabriel,
i who tied the ACC record with 19
completions against South Caro
lina last weekend, is by far the
most accurate passer in the con
ference. He boasts a completion
percentage of .604 which, if main
tained for one more game, will
give him a new ACC accuracy
record. The current record of
.586 was set by Mackie Prickett
of South Carolina in 1954.
Hooper Has Big
Shoes To Fill Now
RALEIGH (UPI) — G 1 Hoop
er Jr., who is rising fast in his
.-ix-months old job in the attor
ney general’s office, encodes he
is just beginning to realize the
magnitude of the work.
Atty. Gen. Malcolm Seawell na
med the 32-year-old Erwin nat
ive less than a week ago to fill
a vacancy created by the death
of a key assistant attorney gen
eral — Claude Love, the state’s
expert on constitutional law.
The farmer Dunn attorney says
the appointment offers a chall
enge he has never before faced.
He is the first to admit that he
has a big pair of shoes to wear.
He is the son of Dr. and Mrs.
Glenn Hooper, Sr. of Dunn.
It was Love who handled a
maj'r part of the legal work be
hind the Pearsall Plan which be
come North Carolina’s guardian
of segregation.
As an assistant attorney gen
eral, Hooper says he will handle
three types of cases: education
ABC, and criminal appeals.
"It’s a very interesting com
bination.” ho adds, “1 haven't had
time to loi'k into anything but the
education and it surely will take
time to get familiar with the job
"I don't know whether I will

of these subjects,” Hooper says,
‘‘but the opportunity is here if
one is willing to study.”
He adds that “Mr. Love had
a great store of knowledge and
I don't know whether I would
ever be able to match that. But
I'm going to be trying.”
When Hooper was the attor
ney general’s representative with
the Highway Commission, most
of the cases he handled were bas
ed on land condemnation1,
“People seemed never to agree
on rhe price the highway officials
offered them for their land and
it was my job to handle the legal
action,” he notes.
“Actually, the people didn't
gripe much, they just wanted mo

j involved wanted to keep the land
because it was part of a home
place.”
Hooper graduated from Duke
University Law School in 1952
and opened his practice in Dunn
| v^here he had lived since he
i w as seven years old.
He later became an assistant
district solicitor for the 4th Judi
cial District, a job he said proved
to be very interesting.
One of the cases that he re
members best concerned a man's
fight to avoid facing trial for
murder. The man, who was later
sentenced to 30 years in jail,

Most Tobacco
Allotments To
Remain Same
| WASHINGTON (UPI) — The
Agriculture Department late Mon
day set the 1960 acreage allot
ment for flue-cured tobacco at
[715,110 acres.
This was an increase of 783
acres over the 1959 allotment.
The department said that for
most farms, 1960 allotments will
be the same as in 1959. Farms
which have not grown tobacco in
. the past will get the small in
crease in the national allotment.
The 1960 crop will be grown
under federal marketing quotas
which were approved by growers
in a referendum held Dec. 15,
1958.
With quotas in effect, growers
of flue-cured tobacco who comply
with their planting allotments are
eligible for price supports at 90
per cent of the “fair earning po
wer” parity prices. Farmers who
overplant allotments lose their
rights to price supports and face
cash penalties on their excess
production.

years. ^
G. Warfield Hobbs III, of«-New

Hooper says criminal law in
terests him most, mainly becau

district solicitor.
On July 10, 1958, he joined

for the Highway Commision.
Long Snooted
Some Big Money
NEW YORK (UPI) — Louisi
ana's Gov. Earl Long was quoted
Monday night as estimating he
had been offered 10 million dol
lars worth of bribes during his
political career.
The estimate was made to Look
Magazine writer Robert Wool, ac
cording to his article in the cur
rent issue of the magazine.
He noted that Long told a coun
try audience last summer that
Thursday, “This sorry state will
end within a few years.” He pre
dicted that old persons would be
“self respecting and financially in
dependent.’’
Hobbs told a gerontology con
ference at Duke University a
combination of federal social se
curity pensions, private pensions,
private financial savings and wi
der home ownership would cause
the change.
“Today we have a large group
of several million aged with sc
little resources that it must be
; assisted financially. This unfortun
; ate group is diminishing both b>
i numbers and proportions.
“It will be replaced with s
! newly - aged” group, increasing
i lv able to care for itself,” he said
1 _
he'd just been offered a $100,000
bribe but told them not to worry
about it.
“That’s not the first bribe rve
been offered,” Long said, “it
won’t be the last one. But when
I take one, I hope God stops my
| crooked, heathen brain from op.
|eration’. .
