DAILY DISPATCH THURSDAY, MARCH 23, 1939 I witness his final exhibition of court prowness. If the Deac’s thought the Ohio State aggregation were tough, rumor , has it that the Barrett luminaries are even tougher. The Barretts scouted the Baptists in Philadelphia last Fri day, and watched the Wake Forest lads barely lose to the Buckeyes in the closing minutes by a score of 64-52. Manager Convery’s men are boasting that they will “show Dixie how basketball is really played.” On the All-American team are such stars as Myer Bloom, Temple University’s great center, and Mincey Manszak, recognized as one of the best long shots in the nation. Bloom led Temple to the National cham pionship title last season in Madison Square Garden and he stands about six feet and eight inches in height. The Barretts also boast of two former proteges of Clair Bee, coach of Long Island University, in Mario Rossi and Ace Tramatan. Both of these men placed on the All-Ameri ca teams a few seasons back. Tommy Warwich, a forward who shoots like Waller, is also slated to make the erip from New Jersey. For the Deacons, Boyd Owen, Turk Apple, Smith Young, Dave Fuller and Rex Carter will also wind up their playing days with Waller. A1 Dowtin, Goat Hatcher, Doyt Morris and George Mauney have promised to be on hand for the accasion, and may get into the game.

STATE PRODUCTION OF HAY INCREASES College Station, Raleigh, March 23. —North Carolina farmers increased their production of hay by approxi mately 250,000 tons last year, largely by increased yields per acre of 200 pounds, it was reported today by Earl H. Hostetler, professor of animal husbandry at State College. “This is encouraging to those concerned with livestock production because an am ple supply of good quality roughage is essential for the proper feeding of most animals,” he stated. U. S. Department of Agriculture figures show that North Carolina was in line with other Southern states last year in the production of hay, since nearly 10,000,000 tons were produced in the cotton belt states in 1938, or an increase of 43 percent over the 1927-36 average production. Larger yields per acre account for most of the increase, but there was also an increase in acreage of about 29 per cent above the average.

North Carolina Exhibit At Fair Is Taking Form New York, March 23. —Among the thirty-three American commonweal ths which will participate as exhibi tors at the New York World’s Fair 1939, several southern states are planning especially pretentious, cost ly, and beautiful displays. North Carolina’s exhiibt will be divided into three parts—die “Theme Exhibit” the “Court of Tourism” and the “Hall of Development.” The “Theme Exhibit” suggesting, in form, the pallette of an artist, will be cov ered with mica thereby assigning for this important North Carolina mineral a new decorative use. On it appears the exhibit’s thesis: “North Carolina, the Balanced and Colorful State.” Symbolizing that thesis, and projecting from the pallette-shaped structure, is a rotating sphere which will flash all the colors of the spec trum. A new exhibition device, the Trio rama, is a central feature of the “Court of Tourism.” It reveals, in ever-changing succession, three re spective panoramas of the State’s mountain country, its thermal and coastal areas, .and the sun-splashed zones which provide for northerners an escape from winter. Through color projections the jßtate’s hunting, fish ing, hiking* touring, and camping attractions will be vividly portray ed. In the “Hall -of Development” 12 symbolic figures will indicate North Carolina’s economic achievements and opportunities. Climate, as an aid State Could Feed Nation In Vegetables College Station, Raleigh, March 23. —ls all the cultivated land in the Coastal Plains section of North Car -1 olina were devoted solely to the growing of vegetables, it would come close to supplying the vegetable needs of the entire nation. That is a statement made here today by C. R. Hudson, in charge of Negro twork for the State College Extension Serv ice, in urging Negro families of the i State to observe Better Gardens Week from March 27 to April 1. “That the soil and climate of North Carolina are well adapted to the growing of vegetables is shown by the U. S. Farm Census of 1935, which revealed that of the 50 best vege table counties in the United States, nine, or 21 per cent, of them are lo cated in North Carolina,” Hudson declared. “Also, taking the 25 lead ing vegetable counties in the nation, six of them, or about 24 per cent, are in North Carolina,” he added. Only one other Southern state, Alabama, has this large a percent age of good vegetable growing coun ties. No other State has over three. This puts North Carolina above all other Southern states in its total in come from vegetables, Hudson re ported. The extension agent pointed out that at least 20 kinds of vegetables may be planted anywhere east of the mountains in North Carolina during late March and early April. About half of these, however, will be suf ficient for the average family for home use, if well selected to give a balanced diet. These 20 kinds of vegetables are: Beets, Brussel sprouts, Cauliflower, garden peas, carrots, cabbage, col lards, celery, Irish potatoes, kale, kohl-rabi, lettuce, mustard, onions, parsnips, radishes, salsify, spinach, tender greens, and turnips. SEES NO SHORTAGE OF SWEET POTATOES College Station, Raleigh, March 23. —There is little chance of a sweet potato shortage on North Carolina markets this year, and growers of the State are preparing to meet the de mand for this crop which caused high prices in 1938, reports Lewis P. Watson, horticulturist of the State College Extension Service.' A much larger acreage of sweet potatoes is indicated. With this in mind, Watson offered advice to farmers about the time of setting plants in the field and spac ing plants in the row, which he call ed two paramount factors bearing-on the quality and size of the crop. to industry, will also be suitably il lustrated. Cotton here, will be used for the first time to surface walls and flooring. Still other features of the exhibit will be a vignette commem orating the landing on North Carolin ian shores of the first English settlers to reach the New World. Another vignette will pay tribute to man’s first successful flight—that of the Wright brothers in Kitty Hawk, N.
