Hassell, Jr., Administrative Office for the Agricultural Stabilization and Conservation State Committee, farmers who fail to plant 75 per cent of their allotment and fail to release the xmplanted allotment to the ASC county committee will, in accordance with National cotton regulations, cause their next farm cotton allotment to be reduced. Hassell said some cotton farmers in this state have been "second guessing" action by Congress which would affect cotton farmers. In this "second guessing" some farmers have come up with the idea that Congress might institute a program similar to me 0011 nanK Acreage Keserve Program which ended in 1958 and which reimbursed farmers for cotton acreage left out of production. Hassell emphasized very strongly that no such plan is in the mill and no mention has been made of such a plan. In fact he further stated that no such plan is ex- ; pected out of congress this year. Since the now discontinued , Soil Bank Acreage Reserve Program was designed to re- . duce planting of allotment crops which were in surplus supply, the very fact that the National cotton allotment was ; increased for 1961 shows the program for 1961, Hassell said. ; T. E. Watson, local ASC nfflrp manaffor enirl ffile nronlr that farmers who know now that their cotton allotment will < not be planted should visit their local county ASC Office ( and preserve their planting his- ( tory by releasing their allot- , ment for use by other farmers ] in the county. The deadline date for ac- | ceptance of this released acre- I age by the ASC county com- j mittee is April 5, Watson said. 1 However, in order for other j farmers in the county to bene- ] fit from this released acreage l and in order for the planting j history to remain in the coun- j tv farmorc nnarl <n ralanrn their allotment which they don't intend to plant. They should take this releasing action now, Watson said. Car Wash , A car wash will be sponsor- ' ed on Saturday from 9 a. m. until 5:30 p. m. by the Rainbow Girls of Warrenton. Tickets for the car wash are currently on sale by the girls, who will wash the cars in the parking lot behind Odom's Service Station on Main Street.

I Propos High S Count) Would Use Macon HS Facilities Proposed plans to establish a junior high school serving the Warrenton and AftonElberon school districts by making use of the old Macon High School facilities were unveiled here on Monday night. The proposal drew both praise and criticism?but no definite action?from the Warren County Board of Education which met with proponents of the plan at a joint meeting held at the John John Graham High School here. Advocates of the proposed junior high school?designed to introduce an improved curriculum and eliminate combination grades?included members of the district boards of the Warrenton and Afton-Elberon school districts. Outlined in plans presented the county board was an improved curriculum which Dr. rhomas Holt, chairman of the Warrenton district board and spokesman for the district boards, said amnld nut tho Warrenton high school "on par with any other high school in the state." Before any concerete steps can be taken in the direction of a new junior high school, approval from the county board of education must be obtained. Holt caled on members of the board to "act in the best interest of the children involved and not penalize them by an inadequate curriculum." Currently the old Macon High School, built in 1917, houses six elementary grades. Under the proposal, the existing facilities would be used and seventh and eighth grade Want Teachers Exempted From CamtIaa Am jwvitc vii ouiy The possibility of having all Warren County school teachers jxempted from jury duty was liscussed at the regular monthly meeting of the Warren bounty Board of Education lere on Monday night. Currently school teachers can >e excused from court duty at he discretion of the presiding ludge. but time is lost from tchool even if they are ex:used. "When a teacher misses a lay of school, even when there s a substitute available, her itudents suffer," W. Boyd Mayield, a member of the board, arcr If school teachers are to be xempted from jury duty, an ct of the North Carolina legslature must be forthcoming. Presently firemen and active nd contributing members of he North Carolina National ruard are among those autolatically excused. The clerk of court of a couny is given the authority to exuse persons only if they have een excused by the law. If ley are not exempted by legation, then it is the prerogaive of the presiding judge as s whether or not they should e excused. In most instances, lie judge does excuse school other,, Mayfleld laid, hot here U itill Ion of time.

No mention was made of the children presently enrolled in Macon. In all probability they would either be assigned to Warrenton or would be separated from the Junior high school students at Macon. Holt told the board that the only expense involved would be minor renovations at the Macon school and the construe Board Vetoes Satur TT IEj^ [For Los School time lost because of sleet and snow which fell earlier this year in Warren County will be made up at the end of the school term, the Warren County Board of Education determined on Monday night Board members voted in favor of making up the lost time at the end of the school year rather than on Saturdays. If no more time is lost; schools will end their 1960-61 term on June 2, the board ruled. Littleton students will have to go to school on Saturday to make up a day lost because of boiler trouble which caused the Littleton High School to close earlier this year. J. R. Peeler, superintendent I of Warren schools, told the board that a total of five days were lost because of bad weather, and that another day would have to be made up beAQ11CO f\t ??> avtanJiul OV?ln* Kay Fair Na In JGHS Spe Miss Kay Fair, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. A.

The total cost would be equivalent to the cost of constructing one new classroom, he said. If plans for the junior high school are approved, the problem of transporting students from W^rrenton .jmd AftQii"Elberon would arise. Holt said this could be solved by using a shuttle-bus system to take students from Warrenton to Macon, a distance of five miles. Holt said that the three disdays xtended it Days mas holiday. A three-man committee to work with Supt. Peeler in a study to determine the needs to be included in the 1961-62 capital outlay budget was appointed by Board Chairman E. R. Davis. Named to the committee were board members G. E. Harvey and W. Boyd Mayfield. Dr. Sam Massey, mem I irei-cjctv, was aisu namca 10 I the committee. In other action taken by the board, approval was given to the following teachers: Florence Hudson to replace Hattie Kearney at Burchett Chapel; Loverstine C. Scott to replace Catherine J. Smith at North Warren; and Monroe J. Fuller to replace Mary G. Yar bo rough at North Warren. The board also approved the transfer of a Littleton student, Joseph Stansbury, to the Aurelian Springs school. med Winner atking Contest contest, which was open to . members of the junior class, were Bill Taylor, Eliza Burton, Lyndell Aycock and Anne Twitty. The program was endorsed by the N. C. Legislature and a boat of drte^M>d^>fcMianal participants also nroaent their speeches for sarious civic and community clubs. 4: pind?

Although praising the plan in general, several members is of the county board said that they felt portions of the plan were not feasible at the present time. Among the drawbacks to the proposal was the request for a teacher's salary from county funds. Board member H. M. Hardy told the district board members that county funds were used for capital outlay only and that Warren County needed approximately two million dollars to improve and build school buildings Money for teacher's salaries must come from state and federal sources, Hardy said. Other members of the board said they felt the plan was premature and that action should await the outcome of legislation pending in the state's general assembly and in the federal congress. They were also of the opinion that no steps could be taken until the end of the current fiscal year. Also questioned was the trasporting of Warren ton students who lived in walking distance of the school they attend. Whether or not they would react to having to take a bos to school each day was the subject of several questions asked Holt by county board members. Holt said that he was con- 5 fident the advantages of the plan exceeded any disadvantages and said he felt the establishment of a junior high school, as a separate entity with its own principal and ~ good teachers, was "a preroga- . tive if students were to * emerge frog*, high school pre- J pared to nrtet the challenges of a science-minded world." m After hearing the plan presented by Holt, and after lietening to arguments favorable J to the plan voiced by various district board members, the county board decided to take no action on the proposal until further study could be made.
