Air Forces, Whose Parents Live Here, Says Airport Would Mean Much to Concord. “Any city that does not have a mu nicipal airport within the next five years will be as'much out of date as a sea coast city without a municipal dock or an inland city without a rail road,” today said Lieut. Colb Mor ris, of the United States air forces, who is visiting his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Z\ A. Morris. Lient. Morris made this statement in connection with his expression that Concord would establish an airport and take advantage of the many op portunities that are to come in com merce -through the promotion of air passenger and freight lanes. * Liqut Morris will spend some two months with his parents before he reports to Langley Field, Va., where he has been transferred from Dallas, Texas. Mr. Morris has been sta tioned in Texas for the past six years, spending three years each at San Antonio and Dallas. Mr. Morris entered aviation at the time the United States entered the World War. He did duty overseas. Mr. Morris declined to comment on the overseas flights, but manifested great interest in Concord to establish an airport. “Now is the time for the people to act, and secure a land ing field for planes,” he said. “A suitable location may be obtained, and Concord will be among the first cities in the United States to enjoy the' great service that airplanes are cer tain to render within a short period.” Dr. Tracy N. Spencer, secretary of the Concord Chamber of Commerce, and H. W. Blanks, secretary of the Y. M. C .A., are keen on the question of establishing an airport here also. “We should have a landing field for planes. It is a field of transportation that will mean much to cities before many more years as already the airmail routes and passenger lines ar popular and are growing nu numbers month ly,” said Mr. Blanks. LUTHERAN PICNIC ENJOYABLE EVENT FRIDAY AFTERNOON Feast Was Sponsored by the Brotherhood Class and Held at Cabarrus Fair Ground. —80 Present. Although the heat was rather severe, it did not spoil any of the fun at the annual picnic of St. James Lutheran church at the Cabarrus fair grounds late Friday afternoon. Some 80 per sons were in attendance, including members of the church and Sunday school. Priok to the hour when the feast was served, the children were provided amusement with a variety of games by H. W. Blanks, secretary of the Concord Y. M. C. A. Everyone must know the menu of a pienic—fried chicken, pickles, as sorted sandwiches, pie, cake and ice cream. Such was the menu of the Lutheran festival. The picnic was sponsored by the Brotherhood class of the church. Rev. Mr. We&singer, of Salisbury, invoked the divine blessing at this occasion. MRS. GATLIN MAY GET TRIAL AT SPECIAL TERM Solicitor Gwyn Will Take Matter Up With Attorneys Before Making Re quest. Reidsville, Sept. 16.—“1 shall con fer with Solicitor S. Porter Graves and the counsel for the defense early next week with regard to plans for a special term of Rockingham county Superior court for the trial of Mrs. Alma Petty Gatlin,” said Allen H. Gwyn, solicitor of the county court, this evening when questioned as to whether Governor McLean had been requested to order a special term of court so the local young woman charged with the murder of her fath er, Smith T. Petty, could be tried be fore next January. It was Solicitor Gwyn who directed the investigation of a statement by Rev. Thomas F. Pardue, former evan gelist, that Mrs. Gatlin had confessed to him that she had murdered her father early last December, that re sulted in the finding of the decom posed body of Petty in the basement of a house in Lindsay street formerly occupied by the Petty family. The remains were unearthed about noon on Saturday, September 3, after a search that started on August 19. A few minutes Inter Mrs. Gatlin was under arrest and as soon as Coroner Whar ton could get a jury, she was formally held for murder. Since that time she has reposed in jail at Wentworth, eight miles from here, where only members of her family and her hus band, chief of the local fire depart ment, are permitted to see her. U. S. Exports Fall As Grain Demands Are Less Abroad. By International News Service. Washington, Sept. 16.—Curtailed demand abroad for American graiir and the reduced price of American cotton this year as compared with 1926 is cutting caterially into the money value of American export trade. , At the same time lower prices for coffee, tear, raw silk and crude rubber are cutting down the valuation of imports to America from abroad. The export loss, however, is greater than the import reduction, the next result being a tightening up of the trade balance as between exports and imports. These conditions are disclosed in a compilation just completed by the De partment of Commerce of export and import statistics for the month of July. Exports for July 1927 were $22,- 000,000 under July 1926. Imports for the same month this year were $19,000,000 under the same month last year. Exports this year exceeded imports by $25,000,000. In July exports exceeded imports by $29,000,- 000. Thus the trade balance was narrowed by $4,000,000 as compared with July last year. Oak Ridge Has Good Team. Oak Ridge, Sept. 17.—(INS)Coach es Bostian and McGee are particu larly pleased with Oak Ridge grid prospects this year. Indications are that Oak Ridge will have one of the fastest backfields it has ever known, although the line is causing a little worry on the part of the coaches. THE CONCORD TIMES HIGH SCHOOLS OF COUNTY HAVE BIG ENROLLMENTS NOW More Students in Three Ru ral Schools on Opening Date This Year Than Last Year. More students enrolled in the three county high schools on the opening date this year than last year and in two of the schools the enrollment on the opening day was greater than the highest at any time last year. At the Winecoff school 75 students reported for work on Monday morn ing against 59 as the greatest num ber in the school at any time last year. x At Harrisburg 77 students were on hand for the opening this year as against 63, the largest number en rolled any day last year. At Bethel 91 were present for the opening, this total being in excess of the opening total last year. However, during the last term at Bethel 92 were registered at one time. It is known that a number of stu dents not yet in position to take up their school work will enroll at Bethel at a later date and the total is ex pected to reach the 100 mark in the near future. S. Glenn Hawfield, county superin tendent iof schools, stated that the work in the various schools was off to a fine beginning and he predicts a most successful year for the three schools. The high school at Mt. Pleasant will not open until October, and an other large enrollment is expected there. Under plans worked out re cently between patrons and school of ficials this school will be operated eight months from the opening date. The decision to operate eight months was not reached until recently and for that reason patrons asked that the opening be postponed until the first of October. DR. EDMUND SOPER TO VISIT CONCORD EARLY NEXT YEAR Dean of Religious Education at Duke University Deliv er Lecture Here Either in January or February. Dr. Edmund D. Soper, noted scholar of religion at Duke University, Dur ham, has consented to visit Concord either in January or February in 1928 to deliver an address to the public at the local Y. M. C. A., according to announcement today by H. W. Blanks. Mr. Blanks, who is the Concord “Y” secretary, invited Dr. Soper here recently, and has received a message from the eminent scholar will be here some time early in the new year. Dr. Soper has recently returned from Lausanne, Switzerland, where he attended the World Conference on Faith and Order. At the present Dr. Soper is preparing a book on the conference. TAR HEEL COACHES MUST FILL PLACES Kickers and Passers Are Outstand ing Needs at Chapel Hill—First Game Next Saturday With Wake Forest Chapel Hill, N. C., Sept. 17.—With exactly five days of practice remain ing before the University of North Carolina football squad takes on Wake Forest in the opening game here on Saturday, September 24, there are four things lacking that are causing the Tar Heel coaches considerably worry. Those four things are a left end, a right guard, a kick er of ability, and someone who can throw forward pagses with some de gree of accuracy. With eighteen lettermen in camp, coaches Collins, Cerney, Fetzer and Ashmore have veterans for every post on the team except left end and right guard, although the competition may force some of the old men out of their places. “Jay” McMurray, regular end for two seasons, com pleted his allotted three yearn of var sity play last Thanksgiving, and “Red” Whisnant, last year’s captain, left a big hole to be plugged at right guard s Out of nine letter backs on this year’s squad there is none who can punt a football high and wide. There were none last year although Block. Shuford, Ferrell and others booted them beautifully at times. None of them were consistent hooters for any distance up to forty-five or fifty yards. The passing attack last season was woefully weak. That defect is a serious one, for the Tar Heelp now find themselves facing a season in which aerial attack threatens to be a potent factor- That states the needs in brief form, now what have the Carolina coaches to draw from in filling them? There are more than four score would-be varsity men in togs daily, but of that number possibly four elevens can be considered factors in the season play. * There are more than a dozen as pirants for McMurray’s flank post. Os that group the leading contenders appear to be Sapp and Kesler. Dod derer, a regular end of two years ago. and Fenner, freshman flankman last year, may prove strong prospects. Both Dodderer and Fenner have play ed the other end, but they may be shifted. t .* Beard, Davis, and Donahoe look like the strongest possibilities in the scramble for the position at rignt guard. One of this trio may he Shuler’s running mate when the Tar Heels face Wake Forest Beard and Davis were on the squad last year, while Donahoe was a reserve center two years earlier. When Jimmie vMaus, promising freshman back of last year, was in jured in a summer baseball melee, the Tar Heels lost a strong possibility to remedy both the passing and kicking needs. Maus could perform well in each role, but broken bones in his right hand may keep him out of the game until midseason. Other passing possibilities include Gresham, letter halfback of last year, and Jackson, Ward and Spalding, from last year’s Tar Babies. * I Baptismal Service. The pastor of McGill Street Bap tist Church announces a baptismal service Sunday evening at 7:30 o’clock. A large congregation is ex pected to assemble and observe this most sacred and solemn service. J. L. Thrower has gone to Clayton where he has accepted a position. CITY OF CONCORD HAS NEW SWEEPER IN SERVICE NOW New Machine Arrived This Week and Already Put in Use. —New Sweeper Cost s6,soo. An Elgin Pickup sweeper was put into service this week by the City of Concord, replacing a worn and less effective sweeping machine. The mo tor-driven sweeper was purchased by the city at a cost of $6,500. The sum of SSOO, however, was allowed by the Elgin company *on the old sweeper. The Elgin type ot sweeper is .in use in more than 375 cities in the United States, ms a machine that .is especially suitable to clean the streets of Concord, being equipped not only with sweepers but also sprinkler and flusher attachments. This enables level streets to be cleaned by the sweepers while the flushers and sweep ers will clean rolling streets. • A special feature of tne flushers is noted in the Elgin type. No motor power is needed to give force to the water coming from the flushers, but an air force places power behind the water. Before purchase of this sweep er the board of aldermen made an intensive study of various machines and their work. Only one man is needed to operate the Elgin Motor Pickup sweeper, a rather curious-looking vehicle with its three wheels, while the old sweeper required two operators. It is readily seen that city is saving money in labor. The sweeper begins its cleaning tour over the city each day at 1 o’clock in the morning, and covers 21 miles in street paving. NEW SUPERVISOR OF MUSIC SINGS AT KIWANIS MEET , Hobart Davis Renders Solo Numbers, and Outlines Proposed Plans and Activ ities of Year. After his rendition of two solos, Hobart Davis, new supervisor of music in the ConcoFd city schools, briefly outlined proposed plans and activities of the high school band and orchestra during the ensuing year .at the weekly luncheon of the Kiwanis club Friday afternoon at Hotel Con cord. Mr. Davis expressed the hope to produce a splendid band and orches tra, and expects to add a number of new instruments to these organiza tions. While Mr. Davife sang, the ac companiment was played by Mrs. Leslie Correll. He was the guest of Dr. It. M. King. Other guests were: L. W. Bointon, of Miami, Fla., and Dr. Charles Wads worth. D. Bay McEachern, new wel fare officer of Cabarrus county, was introduced to the club as a new mem ber. The attendance prize was award ed to R. E. Ridenhour. . Dr. Joe Pike and Judge A. B. Palm er have charge of f.he program for the next Kiwanis luncheon. IMPROVE CURYE AT CORNER OF McGILL . AND KERR STREETS City Forces To Eliminate Danger at This Point. — Work Will Be Completed By Next Wednesday. Elimination of the dangerous curve at the intersection of Kerr and McGill streets is being made by the forces of the city. Earl Calloway voluntarily gave the city sufficient land in order that the danger might be lessened at this point. In rounding the old curve, vehicles traveling west on McGill street, mak ing a left turn into Kerr street could scarcely make the bend without the wheels of the car rolling upon the side walk. Capt. Quint Smith, city engineer, states that the improvement will be completed by the middle of the en suing week. CARS DAMAGED IN MISHAP FRIDAY ON N. CHURCH STREET Essex Coach of Capt. Quint E. Smith Wrecked by a Chevrolet. —No One Was Injured in Wreck. The Essex coach of Capt. Quint E. Smith, city engineer, was badly dam aged early Friday afternoon when it was struck by a Chevrolet on North Church street! Brownlee Goodman was driving Mr. Smith’s Essex while the Chevrolet was operated by Jim Smith, negro. The Chevrolet was also damaged considerably. The negro acknowledged that the mishap was his fault, and consented voluntarily to pay for repairs to the Essex. The negro was driving in the direction of the business section while the Essex going north. Shelly Howell Will Go to Charlotte. Albemarle Press. Shelly Howell, who has been with the Belk-Parks company here the past year, has resigned to connect with a large chain store in Charlotte, effec tive September 26th. His departure breaks a relation ship that has been mutually pleas ant, and it is with full and friendly understanding that the local company gives up Mr. Howell and that he sev ers connection with the firm. The beat wishes of many friends follow Mr. Howell to his new field, and it may be said that his splendid business attainment makes him an as set to any firm which may control his faculties.
