ST. PAUL'S BOYS WIN
TWO BASKET BALL GAMES
St. Paul's high school won two bas
ket ball games from Newport highs
last week. The local boys won in a
game here, 14 to 9, with Owens lead
ing the scoring. In a return game at
Newport, Owens again featured by
tallying 15 points to feature a 27-13
win. Captain Longest made 11 points.
Items of Interest
From Newport School
Every Monday morning some sen
ior has charge of chapel in the New
port school. Chapel is held three
times a week but the whole student
body meets together once a week,
on Fridays. On Mondays just the high
school and seventh grade meets. On
Wednesdays the elementary school
has chapel and every Friday some
classroom gives a program on the
stage. Such variety in chapel pro
grams make this period of the school
day one much looked forward to and
enjoyed by all students who other
wise would dread going to chapel al
most as much as many boys hate to
go to Sunday School. The time for
chapel is the same each time 10:20,
and the public is invited to any exer
cices. The time for chapel is put in the
middle of the forenoon so as to break
the monotony of one recitation af
ter another. It comes after two rec
itation periods in the high school and
is followed by two periods before
lunch. Another advantage of having
chapel at this time is to enable the
truck children to be Dresent. as
many times some of the trucks may
be late for one of a hundred reasons
and the pupils on that truck then
would miss chapel if it were held the
first thing in the morning as i3 done
in many schools. Again, by having
chapel in the middle of the forenoon,
it gives the parents an opportunity
to do their housework and come out
to school for the exercises and then
get back in plenty time for preparing
dinner, whereas if chapel came earli
er in the day many housewives would
not be able to come as they would
not be through their work at home.
The training derived from standing
before a student-body and being able
to express oneself on his feet in in
valuable, and this is- just the reason
the seniors are conducting chapel ev
ery Monday morning. Occasionally,
some faculty member is on the pro
gram for a talk at chapel, but for the
most part, it is the pupils' chapel
period, of, by and for the pupils.
Girl to Play Baseball
Not because they want to be "tom
boyish" but beacuse they like it the
girls of the Newport High School
have organized a baseball team and
every day they have quite a time
playing the great American game.
They do not use the hardest baseball,
neither is it an indoor ball, and there
Ms little need for eloves. mits, etc.
The size diamond played on is just
a little smaller than regulation size,
but the rules are the same as for pro
fessional baseball. It may be. that
later in the spring the girls baseball
team will play a match game with a
erirls team from some other school.
They are open for challenge.
Play To Be Givr-
The P. T. A. of Newport School Is
sponsoring a play to be given on Fri
day night, January 29, at 8 o'clock.
The name of this play is "Welcome
Home Jimmie." It is a comedy-drama
in three acts somewhat of the "Way
Down East" type.
' The publishers say this is one of
the best plays they have ever put
out and it is meeting with tremen
dous success everywhere it is given.
There will be a special added attrac
tion by way of chorus girls and spec
ial musical numbers between acts.
These promise to be good.

WASHNGTON, Jan. 23 Since
formal announcement of Mr. Hoov
er's candidacy for renomination
would have to be made some time, it
is well that Mr. Brown has acted thus
early. This will end the talk, never
taken seriously by informed observ
ers but nevertheless persistent, that
Mr. Hoover was tiring of the burden
of office and loath to enter upon a
contest such as is foreshadowed for
the 1932 campaign. The announce
ment finds no other active Republi
can candidate in the field, since form
er Senator France can hardly be re
garded as in the category. The insur
gents are awaiting word from Senator
Johnson, whom they have invited to
make the race. Ambassador Dawes
has emphatically declined to oppose
Mr. Hoover, to whom he pledges his
loyal support.
10 A. M. to 1 P. M. and from 2 to
4 P. M. All Juniors and their fam
ilies and the public in general are in
vited to take advantage of this offer.

Senate and House conUitis have
reached agreement on the Walcott
Strong bill creating the Reconstruc
tion Finance Corporation, keystone
of President Hoover's relief program
All the differences between the two
houses have been reconciled and steps
were taken to seek final passage, so
as to enable this largest government
al fiscal agency to begin operations
at the earliest possible moment. Sen
ator Carter Glass, of Virginia, and
Senator Robert J. Bulkley, of Ohio,
Democrats, won their fight to make
corporation's securities ineligible to
Federal Reserve rediscount. The
House conferees carried their de
mand for immediate cash advances to
depositors in closed banks up to
$200,000,000, and for advance of at
least $50,000,000 in loans to distress
ed farmers.
The House of Representatives will
pave the way for a general reduction
in government salaries by voting a
cut of at least 10 per cent, and pos
sibly as much as 20 per cent, in its
own, it has been authoritatively stat
ed. Similar action by the Senate was
said to be certain to follow almost
immediately. Initiation of this legis
lation in the interests of government
economy and renewed public confi
dence is awaiting only the presenta
tion to the House, probably some
time next month, of the legislative
general supply bill, which carries the
appropriation for the salaries of the
members of both branches of Congress.

Want Cat Tax Back
Half a dozen counties of the State
have brought court action to recov
er from the State Highway Commis
sion their part of the one cent gaso
line tax provided by the 1929 Gener.
al Assembly, for the period, about
three months from the time the 1931
General Assembly increased the rate
to six cents until the State took ov
er the county roads for maintenance,
July 1, 1931. The gasoline tax runs
some two months behind and the
counties claim they are due the a-
mount, since they maintained the
roads during that period.
Judge N. A. Sinclair, in Superior
Court, gave the counties judgment
in the amount, the highway commis
sion appealing to the Supreme Court,
where the case wil be argued in the
spring term. The amount involved is
about $1,500,000, as the highway
commission would have to pay about
that amount to the 100 counties, an
average of $15,000 a county, if the
Supreme Court holds the counties
are due what they claim. Doubt is
expressed that the counties will re
cover. The State Board of Equalization,
at its meeting last week, reached a
minimum standard agreement on
school busses, samples of which had
been made up and were displayed by
North Carolina body manufacturers,
the effort being to supply a body
that is indestructable and will not
crush if it should turn over on its
top, or permit the children to be
thrown out.
Iron linings for the standards hold
ing the top and iron joints holding
the body together, along with divis
ions in the windows with a central
bar strong enough to hold the chil
dren inside in case of accident, are
features These bodies, thus stand
ardized, can be made as cheaply, or
cheaper, because of the regulation
requirements than bodies now in use,
nor are they heavier. The new bod
ies will be bought as needed to take
places of old ones or to supply needs
when new consolidations are made.
The Chowan county school row,
caused by refusal of county authori
ties to consolidate three small schools
as provided by the State Board, and
efforts to continue them by volunteer
teachers, was not settled. Hope is ex
pressed that the Chowan authorities
will follow the provisions of the
Equalizing board as all other coun
ties in the State have done, thus end
ing the controversy.
