Raleigh, Sept. 17—The Doc New
ton Club, sponsored by the Depart
ment of Athletics at State College, is

member, proceeds to be used by the
State College Student Aid Associa
tion, Inc., of which Bill Sullivan is
president and G. Y. Stradley, of Ra
leigh, is treasurer.
Prospective members of the
are assured that they can deduct their
contributions when filing income tax
returns as “this is a legitimate stu
dent aid unit.”
According to the club’s roster, there
were 662 members up to September
5, 1938—the membership being drawn
from 49 cities (12 of them out of the
state) and the college campus. Na
turally Raleigh led in number of
memberships, with 83. Charlotte was
next with 38. There were 31 campus
members and 18 from Greensboro. No
other towns had as many as ten mem
bers on September 5.
The D. N. C., according to letters
being mailed by the department of

In the department’s letter tc pros

Doc Newton, the Wolfpack’s football
coach, now in his second year, is

“As you know, it has been around
Doc Newton that the State College
spirit has been revived. If you know
him, I’m sure you will agree that he
is just what the doctor ordered to
cure the Wolfpack ailment. If you
don’t know him, I’m sure when you
do have the pleasure of shaking his
hand that you will agree.”

Prices Mixed j
During Week i
i
Raleigh, Sept. 17. —Feedstuff mar
kets firmed during the second week
of September influenced principajlv
by advances in feed grains. Wheat
millfeeds were irregular. Cottonseed
and linseed meals were slightly lower
Soybean meal sold higher for imme
diate shipment but held unchanged
for deferred delivery, gluten feed and
meal were quoted lower. Changes in
other feeds depended mostly upon lo
cal conditions of supply and demand.
The index of wholesale feedstuff
prices advanced to 90.8 (1935-36—100)
compared with 89.4 a week ago and
95.5 a month back, according to the
U. S. and North Carolina Depart
ments of Agriculture.
Best grades of beef cattle ,were
stronger than last week while com
mon and medium grade steers
weaker. The extreme top for fed
steers was 13.35. Receipts were lar-
last week but grassers loom
ed large in the run. Fed heifers, cows
and vealers were stronger while bulls
v/ere about steady. In the hog di
vision most packing cows were steady
to slightly highex-. The top for the
week in Chicago was 9.45, the highest
in 3 weeks. An increased supply of
sheep and Jambs and a weaker dress
ed meat trade forced prices down on
spring lambs, yearlings and sheep.
The closing top at Chicago was 7.90.
The fall crop of turkeys is begin
ning to appear on some of the mar
kets. In New York, turkeys v/ere in a
very light supply and the market was
slightly higher. At Washington,
young hens, 10 to 12 lbs. were quoted
at 24 cents per pound ’ while young
toms of 15 lb. and up brought 25
cents. Other live poultry was about
steady except chickens which were
slightly easier. The egg markets con
tinued firm and the statistical pic
ture remained unchanged, (smaller
supplies, lighter market receipts and
smaller storage stocks than in 1937).
This weeks’ wholesale Dressed Meat
Market at New YorH was featured by
price losses in all classes except top
