The Lions staged a late season spurt that carried them from third place in league standing to the champion ship. Hubert Lewis and Jacoby Williams hooked up in a mound duel, with each being hard hit, but given plenty sup port. The Lions got six safeties, while the Bankers were mustering seven. The Lions drew first blood in the first inning when Richardson got a double -after one was out. Terrell grounded out, but R. Turner dropped Dodd’s blow to left field, allowing Richardson to come home. CITY SOFTBALL LEAGUE (Final Series Standing) Lions 3 1 .759 Bankers 1 3 .250 PIEDMONT LEAGUE (Final Standings) Club W. L.

C. Railroad To Some Other Line (Continued from Page One.) the leasing program is likely in the not too distant future, as the gover nor, through the attorney general, advised against election of officers at this time, indicating that there would be no need for installing a new, official set-up. H. P. Crowell, who has been in ac tive charge of management of the Mullet Line, has been opposed in many quarters, but will almost cer tainly continue in charge until some thing definite is accomplished. Prior to today’s meeting there werej many reports that the directors, at the Governor’s suggestion, would con sider the possibility of selling the road; but nothing was done, in the open at least, along that line. There is not the slightest doubt that Governor Hoey and all the di rectors would jump at the chance to sell ,and thus permanently rid them selves of a perennial headache; but at present there is no legal authority for them to do so, and as far as can be learned th*are is no prospective purchaser in sight. Some months ago the governor was approached by certain North Carolina interests who wanted to find out what could be done in the matter of buying the Mullet Line, but when the matte! 1 was referred to the attorney general— then Supreme Court Justice A. A. F. Seawell- Li was learned that there would have to be legislative authori zation before any sale is possible. With that, the interests lost all in- ! terest, as they were planning either to buy the road then or do something else. When they found they could nor. buy immediately, but would be forced to wait until another session of the legislature, at the earliest, they drop ped out of the picture. The road has been something cf a Important Notice The names of the owners and operators of Cooper’s and Banner Warehouses, which appeared at the bottom of their half page advertisement in Wednesday’s issue (Tobacco Edition) of this newspaper were incorrectly listed. The correct names should have been as follows: W. M. Young, W. B. Daniel, Jr., R. S. Young and F. S. Royster The Dispatch regrets the mix-up in names and is glad to make this correction. In the fourth, the Lions got another tally by the unearned route. Royster first up, was safe on Williams error, and Church doubled him home. . The Bankers threatened constantly, but failed to have the necessary punch to send tallies over the plate. D. Turner doubled in the first in ning for the Bankers, but died there. The losers rallied in the seventh in ning, but lacked the necessary bing les to win the ball game. The entire series has been l:otlv contested, with good games being turned in. Large crowds witnessed the contests, and the players showed fine sportsmanship throughout. Score by innings: R- Lions 400 100 o—20 —2 Bankers 000 000 o—o0 —0 Lewis and Royster; Williams and Weldon. Miller Cuts Grid Squad To 40 Men Coach Bing Miller has already let the axe fall on the Henderson high school football squad, paring some ten to fifteen boys from the squad, leav ing about 40 in camp at present, with future cuttings to be made. Miller is giving the boys exercises will stand thpm in good stead with tough work just ahead. The mentor commented on the fact that some of his reserves for the past two years have failed to show first string calibre, and unless they dis play something very early in the sea son, they will be dropped from the squad. He feels two years is long enough to work with a lazy reserve, needing that time for work with new men eager for a chance to play. Uniforms will likely be given some of the men this afternoon or tomor row, with rough work beginning in earnest next week. The coach plans to use all new plays this year, using short punt and single wing back formations. He is scouting around among his players for a capable quarter and fullback.

Sounds as if it might be per manent. losing proposition of recent years and, in addition, there has been perpe tual and incessant bickering over its operation. Crowell was imported from the North as an outstanding expert in doctoring sick railroads, but, despite his reputation, there has been noth ing spectacular in the matter of get ting tetter results. Recently drastic reductions in ope rating expenses, including who'.csale layoffs, have helped keep the road out of the red. 24-Hour SB m k ill W I Service Loughlin City Taxi louisburg meets LUCKIES ON FRIDAY The South Henuwnp l.w.lriei and Ixtns’iur? will meet.
