worked tirelessly and touched every
section of Randolph county with
speakings, rallies and the like, with
the result that Randolph's majority

United States And
Canada Unite Policy
For Increasing Game
Washington, D. C., Nov. 5.—Just
now when some several million sports
men are beginning to swap fishing
rods for shotguns as the hunting sea
sons are opening, comes the announce
ment that the United States and Can
ada are to have an American Game
Fi^h policy, calculated to make bigger
and better fishing throughout both
•countries—bigger fish and millions
-more of them, according to a bulletin
of the American Game Association.
Scientists are learning that practic
ally every game fish grows in size
not by age but by the amount of food
consumed. For instance, a glutton
Mack bass eating bountiful rations
wiR grow many times larger than a
toother or sister of the same school
in the same period of time that gets
only n sustaining ration.
Therefore to make long fish stories
come true—the lfind that it takes both
arms to fflustrato—-one must feed the
fishes plenty. And that’s to be an
important phase of the American
Game Fish policy. The scientists are
to determine toe best roods ana now
to grow them naturally, abundantly
and inexpensively; they intend to cre
ate and control an ideal environment
for all varieties.
The intrease of millions of fish is
to be effected by building up environ
ment in lakes, streams and ponds and
by the creation of innumerable lakes
and ponds and stock these with the
favored fiah and their necessary foods
that will grow naturally.
When everybody else fa trying to
'get rid of fleas, the American Game
policy will advocate raising them;
that is, water fleas, for these minute
insects are the favorite food of baby
fiah and they thrive on them.
Plans were made recently at the
annual meeting of the American
Fisheries Society in Colundras, Ohio,
to formulate the American Game
Fish policy. Officials of the Ameri
can Game Association and the Isaak
Walton League and others are to be
gin work on the formulation of policy
soon. Game Commissioners of both
countries are to . cooperate, it was
McDowell county farmers ate plan
ning to cooperate in planting an
acreage of red raspberries this faH
aa a new cash crop for the county.

liberty High Team
Defeats Local Boys
By 6-Point Margin
Resuming their rivalry in football
last Friday, Liberty and Asheboro en
gaged in a bard-fought game with
Liberty gaining revenge on the de
feat handed them last year by win
ning over the Asheboro team 6 to 0.
Liberty outplayed Asheboro slight
ly in the first half, but neither team
could score and the half ended with
the ball in Liberty’s possession in mid
field. At the beginning of the third
quarter a Liberty back threw a long
pass just over the Asheboro halfback
to FVazier, who with good interfer
ence ran down the field to a touch
down. Liberty tried a pass for the
extra point, but it was grounded by
Bulla. In the last quarter Asheboro
began to wake up and led by Taylor,
Steere, and Kearns with successive
passes advanced the ball within four
yards of the Liberty line on three
tries and fumbled on the fourth down.
Liberty punted the ball back to mid
field. This ended the chance for
Asheboro to score and when the whist
le blew Liberty had scored the only
touchdown of the game.

HENRY FORD’S MEN
APPEAL TO NRA
Senator Wagner, chairman of the
National Labor Board, told interview
ewrs recently no decision had been
made on the future course of the
NRA conciliation agency in connect
ion with the Edgewater, N. J., Ford
plant strike.
Communications had been received
from the strikers asking the board lo
take charge for arbitration purposes,
but he had not seen any sent in since
the Ford management replied to the
workers’ demands in terms which the
strike leaders voted to reject.
Until this time, the labor hoard
merely has helped to establish nego
tiations, without taking active part,
since the Ford Company refused to
deal with it but announced readiness
to deal directly with the men.
Evening- Of Music
Is Given By Choir
Local M. P. Church
The choir of the Methodist Pro
testant church, under the direction of
Miss Louise Swatm, gave a musical
program Friday evening which has
won high praise by those who were
fortunate enough to be present. A
group of varied anthems were inter
spersed with two piano solos by MUs
Swaim and Miss Jane Page Walker,
and a vocal duet by Mrs. R. L. Wood
and Mrs. IHL H. Walker. Mrs. N. M.
Harrison played the accompaniments
for the choir numbers.
W. L. Ward presented Mrs. Edouard
Albion, of Pinehurst, as guest artist.
Mrs. Albion gave two stories, “How
the Temple of Music was Built” and
“The Butterfly That Stamped.” Mrs.
Albion, nationally known for her art,
was at her best and was well receiv
ed by her audience. The entertain
ment was staged for the benefit of the
organ fund.
On Saturday morning Mrs. Albion
again appeared for the benefit of the
organ fund, this time at the Sunset
Theatre and gave stories for child
ren. Through the kindness of Mr.
White, proprietor of the theatre and
Tom Wiles, part of the proceeds from
this matinee went toward the organ
fund.
At the Sunday evening church ser
vice, the Chisholm sisters, of Thomas
ville, sang for the congregation of the
Methodist Protestant church. They
gave several selections that bore a
touching spiritual message giving
pleasure and inspiration to their hear
ers.
Duke Faces Series
Of Hard Games At
Close Of Season
Team Goes To Play Maryland
Saturday And Then Takes
On Carolina Week Later.
Durham, Nov. 6.—Facing a series
of three games that will “make or
break” them in the 1933 Southern
conference championship race, the
Blue Devils of Duke invade College
Park, Md., this week for the first con
test of the aeries. They return home
Sunday to begin preparations for their
annual battles on rite next two Sat
urdays with North Carolina and North
Carolina State.
Th* Blue Devils Went to the front
otf the conference race in their first
game of the season by defeating V.
M. I. but since they they have been
playing state foes or members of the
Southeastern conference and have
been victorious over all of them, in
cluding Tennessee and Auburn, Sou
thern conference co-champions last
year.
Maryland’s sophomore ball club has
been coming along rapidly this season
and whether they have won very
many victories or not does not matter
as they face Duke, a team that is un
beaten. The Blue Devils can be as
sured that they will face another “in
spired” ball club this week and the
following two weeks as they battle
North Carolina and North Carolina
State.
The fighting Duke line again came
forward in the game with Auburn
Saturday to get most of the credit
for the victory. Led by that pair of
brilliant warriors, Freddie Crawford,
tackle, and Tom Rogers, end, they re
pulsed every attempt of those fast
stepping Auburn backs save when
Kimbrell sold out on his 75-yard
jaunt to a touchdown in the third pe
riod. It was another great exhibition
of line play.
The injured members of the team,
captain and guard, Carl Sc hock, and
Corky Cornelius, the main drive of
the running attack, will likely return
to action this week. “Horse” Hen
drickson, the Blue Devils’ great quar
terback, will be out of the Maryland
game because of a broken hand. He
played in that condition against Au
burn but immediately after the game
his hand was put in a cast.
Dr. Andrews Delivers
Sermon Here Sunday
Dr. R. M. Andrews, president of
the Methodist Protestant annual con
ference, preached at the Asheboro
Methodist Protestant church Sunday
morning on the subject of courage in
the days of depression. Carrying out
his idea, the preacher brought words
of encouragement from the different
churches and from a financial compar
ative standpoint many of them were
in advance of those of last year. His
observations are that religious ser
vices are better attended, the people
are more loyal to their church obli
gations, more considerate of each
other and on the whole there are
many evidences for optimism for the
future church. Mrs. Andrews and
daughter, Miss Alma, and Miss Fran
ces Tayipr, also of High Point, ac
companied Dr. Andrews to Asheboro.
An interesting feature story in
Sunday’s papers announced that
“Farmer Bob” Doughton would cele
brate his 70th birthday on Monday
by arising at 5:00 as usual, and do
ing "a day’s work” before the daily
stream of callers began arriving at
his office. He is chairman «f the
