Touchdown No. 1 came the first time Elizabethtown had the ball and was made when Helms pass ed to End Robert Jessup from the 10-yard line. Try for point failed. The other first quarter score came when Glenn Helms ran 53 yards. Again the kick for extra point failed. Roscoe Raynor ran from the Elizabethtown 24-yard line for the third touchdown, with Helms passing to Jessup for the extra point. Before the half ended Ken Nye entered his name in the scoring records when he took a pass from Helms and traveled 80 yards for the score. Try for point failed, and the score was 25-0. Early in the third period Helms got away on the Elizabethtown 15-yard line and went all the way. Bobby Mann ran across for the extra point. Then it was Nye again, this time for 60-yards on a play starting on his own 40-yard line. The point was no good, making the score 38-0. The final Elizabethtown score came in the opening minutes of the fourth quarter when Helms went over from the 20-yard line. The try for extra point was no good. l It was just one of those nights when Southport was cold and Elizabethtown was hot. The Dol- i pliins could not do anything right, i and the home team could do no | wrong. Only on two occasions did Southport look like the same ball club that had held Elizabethtown j to a hard-earned one-touchdown victory here a month ago. The only local offensive was, mounted in the late stages of the game at a time when the Eliza- j bethtown second string was on the field. With this game out of their system, Southport set about the business^ of getting ready for Bo livia Tuesday and Hope Mills here Friday. The latter engage-1 ment is to make up for a date J that was postponed because of the1 recent hurricane. Catch Georgia Man Stealing Hay Passing the home of M. L. Holden on Route 17, three miles west of Shallotte at 1:30 o’clock Saturday morning, Deputy Sheriff Drew Long noticed a pickup truck parked back of a tobacco barn near the highway. The offi cer turned in to see what was up. He found a car on which 10 bales of hay had just been load- ' ed from a quantity stacked under the shed. Frank Dallas, a Georgia white man, was doing the loading and when he was asked what he was doing he said: “I just got caught.” He will be tried at Mon day’s session of the Recorder's court. Southport Has Narrow Squeak Bolivia Bears Put Up Rug ged Battle Before Losing By 7-0 Score To Dolph ins Yesterday Johnnie Ellis scored in the third quarter on a reverse play to give Southport a ha.rd-eamed 7-0 vie-! tory over a battling Bolivia ele-j ven Tuesday afternoon. Charlie; Splawn kicked the extra point to complete the scoring. This was not the same Bolivia team that Southport defeated 45 0 earlier in the season. The Bears have come a long way, and have gained a lot of confidence and valuable experience from their games played since that time. Their record now stands at 4 victories and 3 defeats, with one i more contest against the Wil- ] mington JVs. The closest Southport came to scoring in the first half was just before the whistle, when Jerry Moore intercepted a pass at the Bolivia 10-yard line to break up the threat. The touchdown came following! the second half kickoff, with A1 Trunnell and Jimmie Harper al ternating as ball carriers. This set the stage for Ellis at the 7 yard mark, and he toured his own right end for the score. On the first play of the third quarteer Southport was threaten-1 ing again, with Ellis still in the I starring role. He went to the Bo- '! livia 10-yard line, but the play , was called back and Southport1 was penalized 15-yards. On the next play Carter Rabon intercep ted a pass to break up this threat. During the greater part of the ! contest the center of the Bolivia line refused to yield yardage when Southport needed it to sus tain a drive. On the other hand, the Dolphin forward wall was hard for the Bolivia backs to penetrate, and most of the game was played between the 20-yard stripes. Coach Hal Buckner refused to single out any of his players for special praise. ‘‘It was a team ef fort,” he said, “and I am proud of the way they played.” Southport plays the powerful Hope Mills team here Friday af ternoon at 1:30 o’clock and Halls boro comes here Tuesday at the same time for a 6-man game, the first venture for the Southport squad in that field.

Southport Man Out Of Service i John Richard Newton Re ceives Honorable Dischar ge From The U. S. Coast Guard; Will Resume Col lege Work In Spring The Coast Guard announced Monday that Electronics Techni cian Second Class John Richard Newton was honorably discharg ed this week at the Fifth Coast Guard District office in Norfolk. Newton, who resides with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. E. C. New ton at Southport, currently plans to enroll at East Carolina Col lege in the spring semester. Rom in Southport in June of 1932, Newton attended* Georgia Military Academy in College Park, j Ga., and was graduated in 1950. 1 He then enrolled at George j Washington U., in the nation’s capitol, and after one year as a student there he enlisted in the Coast Guard, October 23, 1951. j Following twelve weeks of re cruit training at Cape May, N. J., j Newton was sent to electronics! school at the Coast Guard Train ing Station in Groton, Conn: Up on completing the school he was assigned to the Cape Hatteras Light Station. From there he was' transferred in April of 1953 to the Frying Pan Shoals Lightship for a short tour of duty prior to an assignment aboard the CGC Ing-1 ham, which operates out of Nor folk. In January of 1954, Newton returned to the Cape Hatteras Light Station where he served un-1 til his discharge. Social Security To Help Farmer County Agent Says That Assistance Will Be Forth coming As Result Of Re vised Insurance Protec tion ■ "Farm people in Brunswick co unty should be assured that the Wilmington Social Security office is prepared and qualified to serve them with complete infor mation about the new charges in the Social Security law.” This was the statement of County A gent A. S. Knowles after a visit with Social Security officials last week. County Agent Knowles pointed out that the 1954 amendments to Social Security give insurance pro tection to both farm operators and farm workers. "The costs are low, and the benefits are great,” he said. Beginning January, 1955, per sons who 'farm for themselves will | be included in Social Security if they make as much as $400 a ye ar profit from their fanning op eration. Farm workers are in- i eluded if they are paid cash wa ges of $100 a year or more from any one farmer. The first thing these people should do, the County Agent ex plained, is get Social Security cards — if they don’t already have one. The farm operator will report his own earnings at the end of each year — at the time he files his income tax return. The So-! cial Security law provides a very simple way of doing this — fann ers won’t have to do any compli cated bookkeeping. Wages of farm employees will be reported to the government by the person they1 work for. Details about these thing's can be had from the Wilmington So cial Security office. Persons in that office will be glad to explain to persons who call at the office; or to send informative booklets to those requesting them. Statesville Man Urges Assistance R. A. Hedrick Wr.’tes Con gressmen To Urge Fed eral Aid In Restoration Of Brunswick County Beach Strands Writing both Senator Sam T. Ervnn and Alton A. Lennon, his own Congressman and Congress man F. Ertel Carlyle of this Dis trict, R. A. Hedrick, Statesville attorney, wrote W. B. Keziah of this paper and inclosed a copy of his letter to Congressman Carlyle. In his letter to the local man Mr. Hedrick urged an immediate campaign for Federal aid for, Long Beach, Holden Beach and j Ocean Isle. The letter he wrote Congressman Carlyle was as fol lows: “I Was one of those unfortun ate individuals, like yourself, who I lost a home at Long Beach, as a result of the recent hurricane. Al- j though my loss was great, it is! nothing compared to the loss of the people of Brunswick County. • “It is distressing to me to read and learn that vast sums of the State and Federal money are be- i ing spent at Carolina and Wirghtsville beaches, Kure beach, and other beaches north of Cape Fear River, but so far as I can determine, not a penny of Federal money is being spent on the beaches of Brunswick County, al- j though probably some is spent in ' Southport itself. The worst hit place in both North and South Carolina, is receiving the least. “Brunswick County, unless it receives immediate aid, will be forever bankrupt. The economy of that county is greatly depend ent upon summer trade, which unless Federal aid is forthcoming irftmediately, is gone forever. As a proper ty owner of Long Beach, I stand ready and willing to render every assistance possible to the reconstruction and future development of Brunswick Coun ty. It is true that I have a per sonal interest in this matter, but I assure you my interest is not limited to something for myself. "I have this day written my own Congressman, Hugh Alexan der, and Senator Lennon and Er vin. to urge that immediate steps be taken in your district to ob tain for Brunswick County what is so vitally needed. “Time and tide wait for no man,” and be cause of this, the beaches of Brunswick County are fast erod ing and will be unfit for habitation unless dunes are prepared to keep out the slightest abnormal tide. This can only be done by the use of Federal money. “I respectfully urge you to take immediate steps to organize a campaign to aid Brunswick Coun ty.” Wells Rebuilding Dock At Old Site W. S. Wells and Son have started building a new shrimp house on the site of the old one, which was completely destroyed in the recent storm. Mr. Wells states that the new building; will be of the same size and on exactly the same location as the old. It is understood that the Wells boats will go to Florida for. the coming winter and that the new building will be ready for occu pancy long before their return in the spring.
