DAILY DISPATCH, SATURDAY, JANUARY 16,1937 EPSOM WINS OVER I Double Bill In State Elim inations Taken Op Local Court Thursday Epsom high school basketball teams swept Nashville in a doubleheader Thursday night in Henderson high school gym, the girls getting a 12 to 0 verdict, while the boys chalked up an 18-8 win.

Edgar Edwards topped the boys in their victory with seven points. Every man looped the basket at least once. Ballard led Nashville with six points.

State Will Meet Carolina and Duke During Next Week College Station, Raleigh, Jan 16— The Big Five and Southern Confer ence basketball spotlight falls on North Carolina State’s Techs next week as they engage Carolina and Duke in two of the outstanding games of the week. Undefeated in Big Five and Con ference play, the Techs hope to turn back the Tar Heels on Tuesday night in State’s Frank Thompson Gymnas ium. Carolina is one of State’s most respected rivals. Carolina got the better of State in three meetings last year, Carolina tak ing the Big Five crown as a result of two of these wins as no other Big Five team was able to defeat the Techs. The first two games were won by two point margins and were regu scheduled games. The third meeting came in the semi-finals of the South ern Conference tournament and Caro lina won by three points. The team went on to defeat Washington and Lee in the finals to take the Confer ence title. State will be favored to take Caro lina, but the Tar Heels, having gotten themselves out of a losing streak, will come to Raleigh with a powerful team and hopes of upsetting the Techs. A capacity crowd is expected to witness the game. The game with Duke on Saturday night also will be run off in Frank Thompson Gymnasium and another full house is expected. Duke is con sidered one of the strongest teams in the conference and also is undefeated in Big Five play. State conquered Duke the two times the teams met last year. 1 You We Telling Mel 4 —1) By WILLIAM RITT Central Press Writer It begins to look as though this win ter will go down in history as the Year Santa Claus made the big mis take of giving junior a sled instead of a bathing suit —considering the weather in certain supposedly cold regions. Germans may go on a meat diet to aid conserving their food stores. It seems they are with Hitler, for better or cor wurst. Millv, the titian topped type writer tapper, says she guesses, after a glance at the news from Spain, that, apparently, Europe intends to keep its New Year’s revolution. We’ll bet Mussolini is madder than ever today. A cameraman actually caught him smiling. Pineapples, we read, are full of vitamin C. That’s news when we lived in Chicago in pre-repeal days We thought they were ful of vitamins TNT. Manager Connie Mack of the Phil adelphia Athletics has also been elect ed president of the club. Think of the fun ho is going to have trying to ar gue himself out of a raise in pay. “Real prosperity,” reads a newspap er editorial, “isn’t here yet.” Maybe not, but we’re pretty well satisfied with the sample. Makers of “Monte Cristo” Repeat With “Mohican*” About a year ago, two comparative ly youthful and exceedingly ambitious motion picture producers, Harry M. Goetz and Edward Small, dug the old, familiar “Count of Monte Cristo” out of the library shelves and pro duced it with perfect fideltiy for the major screen sensation of the year, making its leading actor, Robert Donat, a screen, star of first magni tude and of their company, Reliance Pictures, a new and major force in the industry. Today this same pair, with a num ber of screen hits tucked under their belts, are repeating with another fa miliar classic. “The Last of the Mo hicans,” by James Fenimore Cooper, which comes to the Vance Theatre Sunday night, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. What has delighted millions of peo ple in book form, they argue, will de light more millions in a good cinema adaptation. Not every classic, not every popular work, is successful in motion pictures, i’cut certain familiar authors — and they enthusiastically nominate Dumas and Cooper—were natural screen writers, born too soon, The elements of suspense, hair breadth escapes, the lone scout bat tling his way through hordes of sav age enemies, the chase, the dramatic hand-to-hand combat—all the ele ments that make a film a source of never-failing delight to thousands of movie fans—are present in large mea sure in the Cooper materpiece. LEGISLATIVE CHATTER Daily Dlsiiateli Bureau, In tht* Sir Walter Hotel. Raleigh, Jan. 16 —Rumors that Hu bert E. Olive, campaign manager for Governor Hoey in the primary, is seek ing one of the two Supreme Court places to he filled in accordance with the constitutional amendment adopted in November seem to be without any real basi- in fact. At least so it is positively stated by one who was ex tremely close to Mr. Olive s r. the pri mary battles. This source, which Golfers May Use Course Tomorrow West End Country Club’s golf course will be all right for play tomorrow, it was stated today, pro viding Sunday enjoys the sunshine that has beamed through today. The heavy rains andj cloudy weather for the past several days has kept the greens in such a con dition that they were too soft for a mower to be used to cut grass there, and It is extremely long at this time. Golfers may play the eourse tomorrow, but they are re minded that the grass will be long on every green and accurate putt ing will be something impossible. It was stated today that if con tinued sunshine was enjoyed throughout the week-end and Mon day, the grass would be cut, and the eourse would be in fine condi tion by Tuesday.

I If there are any liquor lobbyists ,anywhere around Raleigh at this stage of the game, their presence has | been very artfully concealed. The | dry “lobby” headed by Cale K. Bur j gess, however, has been much in evi dence. *~" t I “We don’t need new election laws, 1 Kve Jneed Ihonest section officials,” said D. F'. Giles. McDowell county rep ; resentative, in making clear his op- I position to repeal of the absentee bal | lot law. Yet in the very next breath j he told an eastern colleague he would ! gladly vote to abolish absentee bal loting in Democratic primaries. Mrs. Charles J. Hutchins, Yancey’s House representative, has so far been perhaps the most active member on the floor. IsTot only did she intro duce the referendum plan liquor bill, but she has since been stirring about conferring with her co-sponsors and evidently planning to play anything but a shfinking violet role. incidentally she is undoubtedly the best dressed member of the House, appearing every day in a different ensemble—all of them attractive. Many of the mals members envy her the privilege of wearing a hat during sessions. An unidentified member of the joint finance committee drew a laugh dur ing a recent hearing by rising to in quire if there was anything signifi cant in the close conjunction of “dapeing, wrestling and boxing” in one of the schedules. Representative Con C. Johnston proved his gallantry the other day by coming to the rescue of an attractive committee secretary who was vainly trying to make her voice heard in a roll call of the group, assembled in the hall of the House. The Iredell solon put on display the same voice he used in giving commands to the jtroops he commanded during the World War. f'IfITVENSON I Sunday, January 17th Matinee 2:30 20c and 35c ’=3s 45—a1l seats 40c «S ORGAN CONCERT A 15 minute organ program will be rendered by VICTOR L.
