TAX PAYERS GROUP
IS ORGANIZED HERE
(Continued From Page One)
stuff off the tax books. Judge Eng
lish said that he would be willing in-1
deed for the commissioners to take a j
portion of his property in this man
ner, and take it at the price per acre
that it is listed on the tax books. |
“If I had my back taxes out of the .
way now I could start paying on my |
present stuff and keep it up to date, j
Very likely ^ majority of other !
property owners who are delinquent
are in the same fix. If it can be so :
arranged to allow the commissioners j
to take over a part of property as (
outlined, both tne taxpayer and the
county would be in far better shape, j
As it is new, I cannot afford' to ,
strain to the very limit or go over!
the limit to pay my back taxes and ,
then stand tne chance of losing my
property for current taxes. Likewise,1
1 cannot afford to pay current taxes
when the back taxes constitute a
legal lien against my property. Taxes
are more just, more equitable and i
fair now than ever before, and if
there could be a way worked out to
take care of the delinquent taxes, I
believe we would all be in far better
shape.”
W. B. Henderson, member of the
board of commissioners, and W. L.
Aiken, chairman of the board, ex
pressed themselves as being in favor
of the proposal put by Judge Eng
lish. Mr. Aiken stated that the board
had no desire to push any delinquent
.tax payer, and certainly did not wish
to throw any man out of his home,
at this time. ,{
Matter of taking care of suits that
have been instituted by the county
was gone into, and definite announce
ment will be made through The
Times next week as to proper pro-j
eedure of delinquent taxpayer, it was
said by the chairman.
The following were appointed to
draft suitable bill for presentation
to Transylvania’s senator and repre
sentative:
A. M. Paxton, D. L. English, U. G.
Reeves, li. W. Coren, W. L. Aiken,
11. P. Nicholson. Ralph II. Ramsey,
J. C( leman Owen, Rev. C. C. Reece,
Sutton Wilson, Spurgeon Owen.

L1BRARY0PEN EACH
AFTERNOON IN WEEK
The U. D. C. library is open every
afternoon from 3 to 5 o’clock, and
every night for two hours from 7:16
to 9:16, for the convenience of the
reading public.
This improvement in the library
schedule is made possible through
funds made available by the FERA.
This fund pays part time salaries to
three Brevard College students for
acting as librarians at the designated
hours, thereby enabling them in
financing their college expenses. Miss
Sattie Parker, librarian, is also in
the library the greater part of the
time with the students.
Misses Winnie Matthews and Lor
ena Rogers are the students in charge
during the afternoon opening hours,
and Carl Hepler acts as librarian
during the two hours at night.
It is expected by the U. D. C.
Organization, sponsors of the library,
that many people of the town will
avail themselves of the opportunity
for this frequent use of the library
during the winter, and that many
new memberships will be secured on
account of the improved service to
the public.

B. H. S. BETTERTHAN
FRANKLIN HI ELEVEN
Brevard’s crack high school eleven
:ontinued its winning streak last Fri
day afternoon at Franklin by defeat
ing that team by the shutout score
of 26-0.
All four of Brevard’s scores were
made on spectacular plays, with

the first quarter, but weakened be
fore the offensive of the Brevard ag
gregation in the second. Morris pass
ed fifteen yards to Pickelsimer for
the first score, little Pick taking the
ball for thirty more yards to score..
Try for extra point failed.
Again in the second quarter Sin-j
iard rhot a bullet pass to Pickelsimer
fot 20 yards, the latter taking it over
from the ten yard Wr.e. Moir>s passed
to Souther for the extra point.
With Franklin on the defensive,
Liverett intercepted a wild pass in the
third quarter and outran the field for
forty yards and a score. In the fourth
quarter Gray snagged an attempted
pass before it reached the hands of a
Franklin player and meandered down
the field for 30 yards and a touch
down. Morris kicked a placer for the
extra point.
Altogether, the entire squad of
starters and subs played an excel
lent game, with Gray, Morris and
Huggins starring for Brevard,

Liverett and Souther, ends; Huggins
and Mull, tackles; Ashworth and
