COMPLETE COVERAGE OP RANDOLPH COUNTY H FRIDAY THE Marley Bros Ramseur Watch This Space Next Week For Marley’s Bargains Government Moves To Interest City Folk In Outdoors To Have 46 Camps Under Supervision Of National Park Service Highly Practical Government Pays For Build ing: Operated By Private Agencies With the idea of providing to those city dwellers whose incomes do not permit them to go to pri vate camps inexpensive outdoor recreation, the federal government is building a chain of 46 woodland camps in 23 states. These camps, most of them near large industrial centers, are being developed un der the supervision of the National Park Sservice. By increasing their opportunities to get out amidst natural surroundings the Park Service hopes to heighten their liking for and appreciation of the, joys of outdoor living. A half-dozen of these camps were operated successfully this summer. By next summer more will be ready. The camps are not actually oper ated by the government, but are leased to non-profit organizations, which pay a rental sufficient ’ to cover maintenance costs. h or a camp with a capacity of 100 campers, this rental has been tentatively fixed at $600. Fees chaged to the campers are set by the agency operating the camp. In addition to the organized camps, the camp areas will have picnic grounds for day use, swim ming pools, hiking trails, over night camping grounds and streams stocked with fish for the benefit of fishermen. Sub-Marginal Iamd Many areas being turned into recreation parks have been in the sub-marginal class—that is, unfit for profitable cultivation. Construction of the camps, paid for by the Federal government, has given employment to some 16,000 relief workers and ap proximately 4500 members of the CCC. “The practicality of the low-cost organized camp is not even de batable,” says A. F„ Demaray, act ing director of the national park service. States Initiated Move “A few far-visioned state parks long ago initiated the experiment. In 1913 the Palisades Interstate park on the boundaries of New York and New Jersey established such camps and made them avail able to organizations at nominal fees. Today the Bear mountain and Harriman sections of this great reservation, within easy access of upward of 10,000,000 persons, boast 93 organized camps which have an annual sum mer patronage of over 50,000 people. Indiana also maintains camps of this type, as do many of the coast cities of California. “There is such a pronounced de ficiency of organized camp facilities on the public lands that it is the belief of the national park service that the development of these areas as demonstrations by the Federal Government will mark a milestone in land use and open up to millions of citizens a way to health and pleasure une<iualed in significance by any advance yet made in the field of recreation.” Worthville And Staley Continue Deep River Race Two Teams Meet Saturday To Settle Second Half Title; Records Equal Staley, Sept. 10.—Staley won over Franklinville 9 to 1 here Saturday to keep in step with Worthville for leadership in the Deep River league. Deaton, Staley pitcher, in addition to limiting Franklinville to 4 hits and strik ing out 13 batsmen, smashed a home run with a mate on base to start the scoring for Staley in the second inning. Worthville defeated Liberty 8 to 7 to narrow the race for second half honors to Staley and Worth ville. Both teams have won 7 games and lost 2 during the second half. Next Saturday, Worthville plays Staley at Staley in. the last game of the season to decide the winner of the last half of the split season. The game will not be call ed until four o’clock, enabling the other teams in the Deep River league to view part of the classic. Should Staley win over Worthville, there will be no play-off to decide the winner of the season, as Staley won first half honors by nosing out FranKIfnville by.a one game margin.

General Reform State’s Prisons Be Evolved Escape Proof Prison Camps, Similar To Alcatraz, Is Now The Plan Changes Discussed With 8,700 Prisoners At Present At State’s Prison, Problem Interesting North Carolina will soon have several escape-porof prison camps similar in their general set-up to the federal prison on Alcatraz Is land, California. Oscar Pitts, act ing director of the state highway and public works commssion, an nounced Tuesday that this would' be carried out in connection with j general reform for the prison | system. He reported detailed! changes which, he said, would be' nearly as far reaching as those I occurring when the state assum ed control and supervision of all county convicts six years ago. Based on the theory that one rotten apple can destroy a barrel; of reasonably good apples, the re-' form calls for the classification of| all convicts in the state and the “segregation of likes.” i Pitts sees in the segregation the I virtual solution of the state’s pri- j son problem and the partial solu-; tion of its crime problem. And to prove such problems exist, he points to figures showing the j ever mounting population of North i Carolina’s jails. | Increasing Problem At present, the state has 8,700 j convicts in its custody. Of this | number, Pitts estimates, 400 are incorrigibles — desperate, dang erous continual offenders , They are the criminal incurables who heretofore have been allowed to associate with persons suffering from minor “diseases.” They are the rotten apples in the prison bar rel.
