COX INVITED TO KANNAPOLIS Gallant Leader in World War and Legion Department Commander May Visit Towel City. Kannapolis, Nov. 28.—General Al bert Cox, of Raleigh, commander of the North Carolina department of the American Legion, who attained the highest rank of any North Carolina ian during the World War, in all probability will be entertained by the local legion post at an early date. He has been tendered an invitation by Commander S. Z. Phlieger to be present here at the installation of the new officers, which is scheduled to take place in the immediate future. Although Mr. Phlieger has received no word from the department head quarters of the Legion as yet, it is believed that General Cox will gladly make the visitation to Kannapolis. In a letter of recent date he wrote: “I had so many splendid men in my command from Kannapolis that noth ing would give me more pleasure than to be present for the meeting of the post.” Praise Kannapolis Woodmen. J. Milton Todd, writing in The Charlotte News Sunday, paid the fol lowing Tribute to Kannapolis Wood men : “Kannapolis Woodmen members are among those that keep the camp fires burning the year around, and we THE CONCORD never fear but what they will keep pace with the other camps of the dis trict in this work. Clerk .Mofris is one of the miost enthused clerks in the district and is always on the lookout for new plans to present to his membership, to not only secure new members but to interest those who attend the regular meetings. Consul R. F. Patterson is one of the best -posted presiding officers in this section, fend we feel that with iiim and Mr. Morris, as well as many others of his camp, we will have woodcraft well represented in that part of the district at all times.” LEGION PLAY WELL PRE SENTED AT KANNAPOLIS Large Audience Enjoys Production of “Cool Knights.”—Good Acting, Funny Skits, and Pleasing ‘Danc ing.—Benefit Performance. Kannapolis, Nov. 26.—“C00l Knigh’ts,” the three act American can Legion play, was greeted by a brilliant audience when it opened last night in the Central high school au ditorium ferr a run of two nights. The group of Kannapolis amateur performers, who acted every part, presented the play with an earnestness that received numerous rounds of ap plause. The music was lilting enough, thanks to Miss Della Peeler, who de serves a lot of credit for the success of the show; the specialties were nov : el; and the choruses of girls were better looking, better dressed and per formed better than most groups of girls than usually have a big part in home talent productions. Some of the most prominent persons of Kannapo lis were included in the required cast of fifty. Miss Helen Harris, high school teacher, who played the leading femi nine role, acted her part attractively. She was well supported in the main role by Lewis Lanier, of the Cannon Mills office force. First honors for laugh productions go to Sam Wiley, as the manicured and coiffured Percy, the colorless boy who w-ould find it difficult to join the Army or Navy, and Jack Hallman, the blackface comedian, who has previous ly shown unusual merits in comedian roles. The school girls, Gladys Wagoner, Idelle> Collins, Mary Harrison and Dorothy Antley, played their parts smoothly and with ease as did R. M. Lowder, as the airship commander, and R. R. Allison, as the dignified pro fessor. The story of “Cool Knights” is all about a woman haters’ club, an or ganization of college men Rworn to bachelorhood. Seeking freedom from the wiles and ways of designing fe males, they emigrated by airship to an island in the Pacific ocean, on which no woman has ever set foot. The is land is celebrated for its famous cheese mines, an industry of the ex tinct inhabitants, who made the cheese from the milk of the dangor ouse, a creature of the stone age, and stored it in vast caves for times of famine. The airship encountered considera ble trouble and delay en route to the island and before its arrival the land became the abode of a group of do mestic science co-eds and their teach er, who were on a little cooking voy age and were shipwrecked off the coast of the island. The airship landed and the girls, overhearing the boys exchange congratulations over the emancipation from woman’s rule, decided to teach them a lesson. This they did by disguising as pirates, cap turing the boys and forcing them to perform all the drudgery that gener ally falls to the lot of woman. The professor, a member of the We Are Offering the Fol lowing USED CARS At Attractive Prices: One Buick Four Touring, 1923 Model One Buick Four Touring, 1924 Model. One Buick Six Touring 1925 Model. One Buick Six 4 Passen ger Coupe 1923 Model. One Studebaker Six Tour ing, 1923 Model. One Durant Four Sedan, 1923 Model. One Durant Four Touring, 1923 Model One Dodge Touring, 1922 Model. One Chevrolet Cabrolet, 1927 Model. Standard Buick Co. i Fresh Nuts from the Nut House Almonds Pecans Pistachio Mixed Nuts Phones 22 and 722 Let Us Serve You Pearl Drug Company club, saved the day by discovering that the rare ungoder plant grew on the island, the leaves of which plant, when steeped, make a tea which has a remarkable effect on those who drink it. It not only produces a deep sleep but completely changes the dis position and temperament, making an act of deception on the pajt of the drinker impossible. When the boys served afternoon tea to the supposed pirates, they took advantage of the professor’s discov ery and the tea caused the pirates to fall into a deep sleep. When the pirates awoke, the effect of the tea on their conscience making deception impossible, caused them to remove their disguise and make them selves known to the boys. While the boys were greatly bewildered and as tonished, they finally reconciled themselves to women and decided that, while it appeared impossible to live with them, they just could no.t exist without them.. It was therefore pro posed that the entire party take pas sage on the airship for him. Not hav ing enough gas in the airship, the professor brought his ingenuity into play again by finding a method where by the bag may be inflated with gas taken ffom the celebrated cheese mines on the island. This discovery made it possible for their plans to be carried out and everybody was happy. High class entertainment between acts was furnished by Cat Lockman and Guy Ritchie, whose number en titled, “Twenty Black Toes” fairly brought down the house with laugh ter. Jack Hallman gave an interpre tation of buck dancing that received a big hand. The proceeds of the show were giv en to the disabled World War veteran in the hospital at Oteen. ERLANGER BEATS KANNAPO LIS FIVE BY SCORE 25-12 Victory Was Third of Season For Er langer; Other Good Games Are Booked. Erlanger, Nov. 26. —The Erlanger Y team defeated the Kan napolis Y cagers here last night by the score of 25-12 in hard fought con test. The victory was the third of the season from four starts for Er langer, and the boys displayed good form in the tilt. The Erlanger boys started their scoring machine functioning early in the game, and managed to keep their forwards well in line for additional goals while keeping the Kannapolis lads from scoring to any great ex tent. The Erlanger club has scored 99 points in four games, while opponents have chalked up 64 points. The Er langer club plans a number of games in the next few weeks, including the Mooresville Athletic club at Erlanger December 2; Kannapolis Yat Er- Janger December 9; Salisbury at Sal isbury December 13; American Leg ion at Taylorsville December 20.

FOR PROFITS READ TRIBUNE WANT ADS. j MONEY TO CONTROL GOVERNMENT SCORED North Dakota Solon Refers to Oil Fraud to Prove His Charge-Tried to Beat Justice. Boston, Mass., Nov. 27.—Use of money for the control of government constitutes the greatest menace to American -democracy, Senator Nye, a Republican independent of North Dakota, declared here tonight in an address at the Ford Hall forum. Selecting the oil scandal as the “roost flagrant example” of the place the American dollar is given in Amer ican government, Senator Nye * said there was involved the “purchase of the administrative branch of the gov ernment,” large expenditures in an effort to sidetrack a congressional in vestigation and finally an effort of wealth to subvert justice in the crim inal trial. “I have never ben an advocate of capital punishment,” the North Dako ta senator said, “but when I see what men of the type of Sinclair and Burns are attempting to do, and succeeding in doing, I can only confess myself as seeing occasions when capital punish-, ment is altogether proper. “They and their kind, with the means which are at their comand, constitute a threat against our w ell being as a nation, thousands of times greater than that afforded by all the ‘Reds’ in creation combined 1 They and their kind have no regard for justice except in its use against foes. Justice'they regard with utter contempt is so far as they themselves are concerned.” The young senator viewed the oil scandal as a natural culmination of a system under which he contended the wealthy bought favors of govern ment by liberal contributions to the “war chests” of the two major poli tical parties during national cam paigns. Other fruits of the system, he said, were “the fixing of tax bills” in favor of the wealthy, the protection of American dollars abroad by send ing armed forces into Nicaragua, Mexico and China. “Events in Nicaragua. China and Mexico, tax legislation, the Vare and Smith cases, the Fall-Sinclair case, making mockery of justice, these and other developments ought to thorough ly awaken Americans to the real threat being made against them,” Senator Nye added, “and cause them to accept the challenge which wealth is offering every day. If they will ac-* cept that challenge, they will first voice genuine indignation. An in dignant people will create an indig nant Congress and an administration that will turn solidly upon this ac cursed power which holds so fast a grip upon our economic and political life.” Senator Nye said the senate had “a wonderful opportunity” to strike “at this curse in American politics” in settling the issues involved in the question of seating William S. Vare, of Pennsylvania, and Frank L. Smith, of Illinois. He predicted that both would be denied seats. WOLFPACK WILL PLAY THE MICHIGAN AGGIES Game Will Be Played In Raleigh Next Saturday Afternoon- BY HENRY LESESNE, ins- Corres. Raleigh, N. C., Nov. 29.—Conced edly the most powerful Wolfpack in a decade will do it utmost to end its thus-far successful season in a blaze of glory on Riddick Field next Satur day when it plays host to the Michi gan Aggies. With a clean Southern Conference record behind them, and the state championship theirs without dispute, the 1927 Wolfpack, centering around the cyclonic McDowall, will make one final effort to add intersectional tang to its prestige. Just returned from Columbia, where they dealt a 34-0 defeat to the University of South Carolina game cocks in their last conference game of the season, the Wolfpack will be gin Monday on a week’s practice be fore they take on the Aggies. The State Michigan tilt will be the last grid attraction of the season in North Carolina, and is expected to draw an uusually large crown to Riddick Field here. All of State’s “Big Five” opponents ended the sea son Thanksgiving Day. The final game on State's schedule is expected to be its hardest, despite the fact that it has lost this year only to the Furman University Hur ricane, a S. I. A- foe. In addition to its Big Five oppo nents —Wake Forest, Davidson, Uni versity of North Carolina and Duke —all of which it has humbled this year, State also has two victories to its credit outside the state —the Uni versity of South Carolina and FIoJ’K da, TODAY’S EVENTS.

Stevens of Arling ton, Mass., grandson of the Federal officer who removed the flag from the Capitol flagstaff Sells Long Staple Cotton at 30 Cents. Albemarle, Nov. 26.—M. A. Caudle, who lives in the Finger vicinity, a well known farmer, was in Albe marle Monday. He brought five bales of cotton which he sold to the Efird Manufacturing Company. And the re markable thing about this cotton sale was that one bale brought 30 cents a pound. It was a long staple, measur ing 1 5-16 inches. Mr. Caudle realized 26 cents a pound for his No. 2 long staple, and 25 cents for his shortest grade, which measured 1 1-8 inch. The variety which brought 30 cents was Delta Webber No. 1. That which sold for 26 cents was Delta Webber No. 2, and it all goes to show that quality in farm produce still counts. Mr. Caudle said that he could make as much lint per acre of the Delta Webber No. 1 as he could from the common variety which is selling on the local market for less thafif 20 cants a pound.
