The Pirate Log By JOAN BENNETT Hi Folks! Ready for some more news around school? We’ve had a pretty busy week, but we’ll try to give you the highlights any way. Tuesday the halls were lined with students either combing their hair (getting pretty for the pic tures) or dashing like mad from one place to another. The cause was; that pictures for the annual] were taken. This was all the gro up pictures of grammar grades and iclubs, etc. Incidentally, it was a cold windy day. W<e have two new clubs organ ized- now. They are the Math j Club, organized last Monday by Mrs. Edna Russ. * Officers are: president — Marion Ballard; vice president — Marion Galloway; secretary - treasurer — Barbara Murden. The other club, organiz ed on Monday also, was the French Club, whose sponsor is Mrs. Katie Mae McKeithan. Fren ch Club officers include Scott McKeithan as president; Carol Anne Sellers, vice-president and June Caison as secretary-treasur er. Do you remember when class officers were elected the first of the year? Well, the Freshmen of ficers were omitted, so we have them for you now. They are Fred Simmons, president; assisted by Lois Ann Hewett — vice-presi dent, secretary — Jane Rogers, and Junior Varnum, treasurer. You surely have a group of ca pable students to lead you, Fresh men. Congratulations to them! Congratulations also go, this week, to Henderson Rourk and Evelyn Register, who are new members of the Beta Club. They earned the honor by making an “A” average on all high school — that's what noted throat specialists re ported in a coast to-ccast test of hundreds of people / who smoked only /, Camels for 30 / ! days ! ip TOWN OF SHALLOTTE PRIVILEGE TAX NOTICE » The Town Board has authorized the Tax Collec tor to Collect 1951-52 Privilege Tax Due the Town i of Shailotte at once.

Tar Heel School Superintendents Release Plan To Regulate Sports HIGH POINT. — .North Caro lina public school superintendents Thursday outlined a 22-point pro gram for regulating public schopl participation in interscholastic athletics. The program will be presented to State Board of Edu cation with request that it become effective July 1, 1952. Most of the recommended po ints conform to the code now governing interscholastic 'sports. In an afternoon session, the Su perintendents Division of the Nor th Carolina Education Association now in convention Jhiere^ revised a number of the , recomfnendations previously made at the1 Mars Hill conference in August. \ S tine recommendation provides that a player must have been a resident in attendance in his school at least 60 per -cent of the previous term at an approved ugh school. Also, a player must secure pass ng grades on at least three cou rses each term, pne of these an icaaemic course, junysicai ecmca tion, according to. the recommen dation, would not, constitute an ac idemic subject.' Excluded from further partici pation in a particular sport would be any student who has played in an all star game in' that sport. No more than one regularly scheduled football, two baseball, two basketball games, t\fro tennis, and two golf matches per week may be played. The group “strongly recommended” that girls basketball games, be limited to one per week. The group also recommended ftiat the season should be limited to 10 games including practice games or scrimmages with other schools in football. Twenty basket ball games (after Dec. 1)' and 20 baseball. Coaches must be.certified teach ers who are bona fide members of the school or practice teach ers, the group recompiended. And all players must receive a medical examination within 30 days prior to the beginning of practice in any sport. .Practice in any sport may not start before August 15 or two weeks prior to the opening of the regular term of school. Tour nament play would be limited to three days in any week and there would be at least one day be tween succsesive contests played j by a team. The final revision provided that violation of any of the regula tions would forfeit the right o the school to participate in intei scholastic athletics for a period of time to be determined by the executive committee of the divi sion of superintendents. Another recocmmendation wou ld eliminate all post-season games in all sports except county, con ference or state playoffs.

Bt'ILDING FOR SAFE In order to keep steadily at work at times when material es sential to other contracts may run short, Dearmond Swain has bought three large building lots and is now constructing a pret ty 6-room home on one of them. He plans to sell as soon as he can after completing the struc ture and will then start right out building on the other lots. The property is on Route 130 in the eastern part of town and is pret tily located. VETERANS BENEFITS (Crawford L.

All companies noted a drop in volume over last season but in dicated colder weather would bring forth a heavier volume in December. The general price range is off a few cents as com pared with the 1950 season but :s in line with a five-year aver age on the local market. G. V. Singletary & Sons, R. B. McRoy & Co., Miller Brothers (Farmers. Warehouse), Wasliam and Warlick, and Columbus FCX comprise the buying companies on the market. A total of $01, 540.00 has been paid out by the buying companies, and, with a heavier volume expected this month, the final outlay should reach well over $150,000. Whiteville, ranked as one of the largest pecan markets in the Carolinas, should maintain its ! leadership in this field as pur j chases have been made on the lo | cal market from five different j counties. Daily requests for j company names, prices and other j information concerning the mar I lfet are handled through the Whiteville Merchants Association. Company representatives are still vitally concerned over the thousands of pounds of pecans that are annually left on the ground, which, if they were pick ed up and brought to market, could supplement the income of many families.
