This hind was designated for the
undernourished children. As a coun
tywide project all schools were pri
vileged to participate. The sum of

• the community chest ot last year, and
IS531.92 of the amount pledged was
'received and put in the First National

money was handled on a prorated
bases worked out by the president
of the Vance County Council of Par
ents and Teachers, and the Vance
county superintendent ot schools as
sponsor.-.. Each school presented their
hst of possible cases and often the
iamiiy woiua request that their chil
dren be given free lunches. And.
those names were put on the possible
list and were presented by each
school to t.\i- weiiare superintendent.
These cases were investigated and
passed upon by the welfare superin
tendent.
All schools were grateful for the
amount of money that their schools
received. Aycock and Junior High
School Parent-Teacher presidents
declared that the check they receiv
ed saved the day when it came to
balancing the budget for last year's
free lunches for the underprivileged
children's health project. 657 chil

county, save the Henderson high
school and West Knd school, bene

Johnson Given
No Road Term
The statement in the story in the
Dispatch Thursday ;iboiit padlocking
of Rock Tavern was in error, due to
a misune.eri tancung, 111 saying that
Garland Johnson operator <si the
place, was given a twelve months
road sentence upon conviction of
selling whisky. John-on was charged
with selling liquor but acquitted by
a jury.
Johnson, however, is now under
bond of $1,000 pending superior
court trial 011 charges of securing
false testimony which acquitted him
of the liquor charge, according to
court records. Zona Johnson is under
S80U bond. Ruby Tucker Renn $500
bond and Richard Hershman $500
bond pending trial in superior court
on charges of perjury in. the case,
having waived examination when
the charges were called in recorder's
court. Zelma Myrick is being treat
ed in Maria Parham hospital, but a
warrant charges her with perjury ii.
a deposition she gave and which wa
offered in the case before the record
er.
Julian Carroll, said to have been
employed by Johnson at Rock
Tavern, was tried and convicted b\
a jury on charges of selling liquor,
was given twelve months on the
road, and noted appeal to superioi
court, his bond being fixed at $300
The statement referring to convic
tion and sentencing of Garland John
son on the liquor charge was In er
ror and is regretted by the Dailj
Oifpatch, and this correction inadt
that the record may be straight.

Alter a girl completes her Ira in

amount weekly or monthly until her
debt is paid. This makes her feel an
obligation which she should have. A
small rate ol' interest is charged from
the day she goes to work. When she
completes her payment that fund is
open to another girl.
It has been suggested that there
are people of means in this and oth

Oldsmobile's exclusive Hydra-Matic Drive is a combination of fluid

shifter. It provides a special fourth speed for
cruising. It gives you a special pirk-up gear for
