September Is Big Month At Post Office Receipts Pass $5,000 First Time for That Month; Year Is $2,- 000 Ahead Receipts of the Henderson post of fice last month of $5,072.36 made it. one of the biggest Septembers in the history of the office, according to records on file. Postmaster J. R | Teague today announced the figure, | and said the month’s total was $586.77 more than September last year when the volume of business was $4.- 485.59. For the first nine months o*’ 1935, total receipts of the office were $38.- 295.10, compared with $36,215.5 f for the corresponding neriod of 1937, or a The post office thus three quar ters of the year with more than COO gain over a year ago, and with the best quarter of the year still ahead. If the present rate of gain is maintained until December 31, the of fice will set an all-time record high for receipts, and will run the year’s total close to $55,000. It was some thing over $51,000 for the calendar year 1937. The general belief and interrrtta tion of the steady increase in postal ■ receipts here is that it marks a. grow j ing business in Henderson. Last year was the biggest the off’ca ever liad and present indications ar_* that that record will fall when the story is told completely for the current year.

Commissioners Vote For Renouncing Road Claims Will Withdraw Demands Ola State If Other Counties Wlil; Miss Dorethea Wo odlief Re-Elected County Accountant; Tax Colie ctions $6,973 In Month Vance county commissioners were \ on record today as being willing to forego all claims on the State for sev ■ tlement for roads the county built and the State has taken over, pro vided all other counties making like Claims would take the same course. The commissioners formally adopt ed a resolution nullifying previous claims for some $58,000, contingent upon the unanimity of the other counties, whose total askings run well over the half hundred millions of dol lars. The board acted after hearing appeals to that effect by T. Boddie Ward, of Wilson, district highway commissioner, and District Engineer Markham, also of Wilson, who ap peared at a special session of the board two weeks ago. The commissioners unanimously re elected Miss Dorothea Woodlief as county auditor for a term of two I years. She was without opposition. It was the regular time to elect the au ditor. After hearing an appeal to that end the board refused to admit Thomas Owen to the Parker Sanatorium for further treatment. Some weeks ago Owen was discharged after engaging in a fight, which got into the courts. The commissioners did authorize Mrs. E. R. Austin, welfare superintendent, to make some provision for his care until he could be gotten into the State Sanatorium in Hoke county. September tax collections were re ported to the commissioners by F. M. Dorsey, county tax collector, at $6,973.33. Back taxes of $1,400.45 were also reported. Jailor W. S. Strange reported IS prisoners in his care at the end of September, and said that during the month prisoners in the lock-up had served a total of 719 jail days. So. Carolina Reverses On Hunting Fees Daily Dispau-a Bureau, In The Sir Walter Hotel. tr Raleigh, Oct. 4.—lt not only de pends on whose ox is gored but upon who is to do the hunting and where it is to be done. As witness, for example, the com plete reversal of South.Carolina game authorities in the matter of hunts in national forests. Last year when deer hunts were held in the Pisgah National Forest in North Carolina, loud and long were the wails and complaints that come out, of the Palmetto state because it was insisted that hunters from other states purchase non-resident hunting licenses, at a cost of $15.25 in order to participate. The South Carolinians maintained that because the hunt was being, held in a national forest, there should be no requirement for a state hunting license. Now news has just been received here that South Carolina is to have some deer hunts this fall in the Fran , cis Marion National Forest, between Charleston and Georgetown. Natural ly, it was thought thats)in view of the previously expressed South Caro ! lina opinion, this hufiting would be free and open to anybody. On the contrary, believe it or not, South Carolina plans to limit parti cipation strictly to South Carolinians and on top of that, will charge Its own citizens no less than S2O each for the hunting privilege.

PLYMOUTH BUILDS wesS GREAT CARSi PUJ Tack Is Depending On Fehley ijg.*, < * , s f' Pat Fehley Raleigh, Oct. 4.—Francis (Pat) Fehley, triple-threat sophomore from Easton, Pa., is the latest star to shine in N. C. State’s gridiron sky. Picked by A. J. McKelvin, sports J editor of the Raleigh News and Ob server, as the probable darkhorse for | State prior to last week’s Carolina i game, Pat lived up to the name. He , glittered in every department of play, | both offensively and defensively and warmed the cockles of Coach Wil limas (Doc) Newton’s heart as he sparked Newt’s second varsity in a 'esperate scoring march that was halted only six inches of the goal line. Fehley came to State two years ago and on the Freshman team showed promise of going places. Encounter ing difficulty with his studies, he dropped out of school, but returned last January. He put in a hard win ter’s practice and when Coach New ton called out the candidates this fall, Fehley was tagged to be Little Artie Rooney’s understudy. He filled that job masterfully in State’s opener against Davidson and his long passes brought the 13,000 spectators to their feet more than once. In his second varsity game, he carried the brunt cf State’s runnin attack while he was in the game and the 19,000 fans were unanimous in admitting that he outshone even Littl Artie. This week Fehley gets the greatest test of his young career when he goe up against the highly touted Univer sity of Alabama Crimson Tide down in Tuscaloosa, Ala. PA ™iiiY Last Quarter Touchdown Drive Give H. I. Win Over Dunbar Friday The Henderson Institute Panthers slashed through rain and mud Fri day to an 8 to 7 victory over Dun bar high school, of Lynchburg; Va., in the Hill City, taking the Virginia State champions in the first game of the season for the Fanthers. It was a tough battle from the opening whistle. Thp Panthers line turned in a sterl ing performance, with Reavis, husky tackle, breaking through in the first quarter, blocking a Lynchburg punt behind the goal for a safety. Lynchburg came back in the third period to stage a 35-yard drive for a score, after taking a short punt. In the final minutes of the game, the Panthers took to the air, but fail ed to connect. Quarterback Williams crossed Lynchburg up with a smash through tackle on the fourth down that netted 29 yards to the two-yard stripe. The Panthers smashed through td victory. Coach Brown is fearful of this week’s opponent, Hillside high school, of Durham, last year’s champions. He is working his team to the limit in an effort to iron out many rough spots that showed in the opening game. A win Friday for the Panthers would be a great step towards the state title this season.
