Love, ELAINE WOOD 301 South 13th Street ERWIN, N. C. Class Rings Teen Lines By Sylvia Strickland • HEY RE HERE! Juniors have suddenly become left-handed due to *he fact that class rings arriv ed on Wednesday. Excited folks dashed to the auditorium at the end of homeroom to be near the fust of the line. Mass confusion is a tjood description of conditions that followed the ringing of the bell to end homeroom that day. Many Dunn students partici pated in the Christmas parade in ; Dunn last Fr'day. Those who ! weren’t actually in it joined the I largest crowd ever watching from | ‘he sidelines. Ann Jackson was j eiected by the Senior Class here jtc represent Dunn High as Miss Merry Christmas. DBS's basketball season got off to a slow start with both our girls ;and boys losing to Wallace - Rose Hill last Saturday. However, on Tuesday things were somewhat im proved when the boys beat Pine Forest and the girls scored 20 points in the final quarter to lose by only 6 points. The new rules realjy make the girl’s game a lot lougher. The starters for the girls have been: Harriett Thomas, Cat herine Westbrook and Arlene Turnage as forewards and Margie Hamilton, Gail Walker, Carolyn Taylor, or Kay Alphin as guards. Boys starters were: Gale Tart, Herbie Ruark, Cliff Butler, How ard Godwin, and Mason Warren. It seemed good to see Baxter Sterling playing Tuesday. Baxter broke his ankie during football ceatun and only recently got the cast off. « Reactions to the College Board which Seniors took last Saturday were pretty well summed up by someone who said "I don’t even want to talk about it!” Lloyd Byrd said he didn’t make 1600 (which is perfect) because he thought he missed one. Congratulations to Lloyd on his football scholarship to Wake For est which is valued at $8,000. I think I’ll go out for football next yeai! Tuesday night Dunn held its first home game. Since our gym has been new, it Jbas been a school policy to allow ho conces sion? inside — they had to be kept in the lobby. For this game as an experiment drinks, pop corn, candy, etc. were allowed inside. This was very messy: drinks were spilied on the court and several people got a very unwanted bath in a sticky drink. It seems to me that it’s not too much of an in convenience keeping drinks outside Sind it surely improves conditions inside. Wonder what all the hush - hush act vities are around school? Don’t b-.; alarmed - its only the Juniors discussing themes for the Jr. - Sr. Some of the best ideas are . . . well, you’ll find out in the spring. RECORD FORUM TO THE EDITOR: About a mohth ago I suffered a heart attack while in your city on business. From the moment of the attack, until I was discharg ed from the hospital last Sat urday, I experienced a friendli ness and warmth op the part of tire people in your fine city which I’ve not known- in many years. from the desk clerk in the hotel who called the doctor, the mana ger who cared for my luggage and brought me my mail, to the nurses and dietitian in the hopsital and eveh the other patients who shared their visitors with me- to keep me from being so lonesome. *'ly especial thanks for kindness es shown go to Mr: J.

Dunn Man (Continued hub rag* One) Costilla County, Colorado and an Hounced intentions Of fencing it accoiding to a special story pub fished in The New York Times. Opposition Arises A considerable portion of th< coui ty's 4,217 population, manj of .hem Spanish-Americans, • wen angered by Taylor’s fencing plan sat a The Times' report. Thej claimed that the original lane grant, coverin' the tract, issuec in 1944 by the Mexiean Govern meut, provided that the lane should be forever open for grafc ing. gathering wood and recrea Ucn. A protest was filed, charginf encroachment on grazing a n c o'ner rights. Taylor carried his ca.'e to Federal Court in Denver During the months the case has - he«n before the court, the feud i between Costilla cattlemen and • Tayior and his men has threat > ened to flare into real trouhle. s Taylor’s opponents dybbed the • ranch 'The Port.” 1 "So heated did the dispute be ' coue that some two weeks ago, k Colorado Gov. Stephen L. R. Mc 1 NiCi' ols ordered a detachment of state troopers into the area. Then 1 .rioie recently, he went himself to ' look over the situation. ' The latest climax to the epi J sode occurred Thanksgiving Day when violence erupted upon dis covt ry by Taylor’s men of three ’ Spanish-American cowboyk on the ' Taylor ranch. Stories of just what occurred: ’ differed. The three vaqueros, or cowboys, said they were peace fully eating lunch when set upon by Taylor’s men, Parvis Raley and Alfred Randolph, and beaten with rifle butts. Then, they said, ' they were tiketi before Taylor 1 himself, and he beat them again with a heavy stake. The trio were identified as Gilver Medina, 29; Eddie Medina, 26 (no relation); and Thomas Rael 26. They claimed they were on the Taylor land looking for a stray heifer. One of the men was taken to a hospital for treatment of in ternal injuries, the other two were treav.ed by a doctor and released. Taylor’s version to officers was that his men simply were attempt ing to arrest the three for van dalism and arson. He claimed they had set fire to a house trailer he had on the ranch and had damag ed his $24,000 tractor by shoot ing holes through portions of it. There was a right, ne admitted, but said it began when one 9c the three "went for his gun”. ; Taylor took the cowboys te Sheriff Ruben Navarro in San Luis and demanded the three be chaiged with arson. Instead, the Sheriff sent them to a doctor, and a «ew hours later, charged Tay lor, Raley and Randolph with kid naping, robbery and felonious assault. C loradQ law provides the death penalty for kidnaping, if victims are hurt. The robbery count ate mi med from confiscation of the cow boys' horses and pistols. "How can anyone be charged with a criminal offense for pro tecting his own property,” Tay lor asked, according to The Tim es’ story. When Taylor, Raley and Ran dolph were taken to the county jail at San Luis, a mob of 100 gathered quickly, continues the Times news story. The Jail door was kicked in, rocks were thrown and shots were fired in the air. "The Governor’s visit was ext peeled to ease the trouble ior A time,” The Times correspondent wrote. "But the resentments cre» aied by the Thanksgiving incident may take a long time to die} Taylor purchased the land for 1300,000, says The Times. It is a part of a one-million acre tract granted to a French Canadian settler in 1844, and is located on the west slope of the Sangre de Cristos, a mountain range named for "the blood of Christ.” Loeal tradition says the agreement was that range rights would be re tained by future generations jdt cattlemen living in this area. f-for Christmas W Make It A Happy Christmas With A General Electric Console Stereo Phono graph PLUS With your Purchase o* $29.95, or More FREE 51b.
