A leading tobacco official predicted Wed-; nesday that the opening day of 1 flue-cured tobacco sales on the I Carolina Border Belt Aug. 3 will average a minimum of | $60 per hundred pounds. Fred S. Royster of Hender-! son. managing director of the' Bright Belt Warehouse Association. who made the predic-1 tion said the Border Belt eron I I is in very good condition. W. P. Hedrick, tobacco mar-j keting specialist for the North Carolina Department of Agriculture, stated he looks for an opening day price range of $58-$60 The Border Belt opening day average last year was $57.68 per 100 pounds for 9,073,000 pounds. Royster said, "It is apparent , that the total yield of the Bor< der Belt crop will be below . that of 1960, but we should . realize a satisfactory price in . view of the demand situation. He added that frequent rains of the past few weeks will cut the yield somewhat, "but I don't think it will have a material effect." The Georgia-Florida markets begin the sales season July 27. Hedrick noted that harvest, ing in the Border Belt is about , a week or 10 days ahead of 1960 when the markets opened [ the season on Aug. 11. , The North Carolina Crop Rei porting Service issued a crop summary Wednesday which' j showed that between 20 and 30 11 per cent of the tobacco crop j in the Border and Eastern belts have hppn hamorl | The crop summary for the ' | week ended July 15 stated i that harvest of the crop in the ' two belts made rapid progress1 ing during the week.

Tuesday in a statement he . made that sales of such propI erty last week alone aggregated approximately $43,000. The t lots are sought for the con, struction of cabins for use . during the summer season.

F. Holliday of Henderson, Carolina Telephone Manager for this section. At that time subscribers served by the Warrenton and Norlina exchanges will be able to dial each other' on a toll-free basis. Manager Holliday said that all a Warrenton subscriber will have to do to call Norlina j will be dial "15" plus the desired number. T o reach Warrenton from Norlina. subscribers will dial "7" followed by the Warrenton number. A new telephone directory is slated to be published just before the change. It will list the special numbers used for inter-town calls in addition to the usual information. At about the same time some 50 new subscribers in the Afton - Axtell - Parktown Crossroads sections are to receive service for the first time. Construction forces of Caro-| lina Telephone began work last week on one of the largest rural projects undertaken in this areas in recent years. New and additional telephone i lines will be placed in the areas around Axtell School, Afton and Parktown Crossroads. Holliday in making this announcement stated that the new lines were needed in these areas to provide service to more than 50 applicants. Plans call for construction of over 9 miles of large feeder cable and 12 miles of smaller distribution cable and wire at a cost of more than $44,000. The majority of these lines will be placed underground along the shoulder of the road in keeping with Carolina Telephone's latest policy to plow in all rural lines wherever practical. This type of construction eliminates the costly damage from ice and wind storms and also helps keep farm fields clear of poles and guy wires, Holliday said. Holliday pointed out that applicants for telephone service in this area will be notified when construction of facilities is complete. This is one of many suth rural projects being undertaken by the telephone company to provide rervice to the rural areas in its 41 county operating territory, Holliday said. Hie project was planned for completion at the time of the new directory because some existing telephone numbers must change in order to use the new lines. Modest rate adjustment will accompany the extended service plan, resulting in some increase* and some decreases in monthly charges for telephone service, Holliday said.

He asks for a front page correction, which is readily granted. However, a bit of explanation is in order in fairness to the Board, of Education, to Mr. Daniel and The Warren BecoM. Technically, Mr. Daniel is correct, for the Board of Education at its March meeting assigned the little girl to John Graham as a safety factor after Mr. Daniel had explained that be was worried about the child having to cross Highway No. 158 at an extremely dangerous crossing.

T Stephen Daniel be allowed to attend school at John Graham '' High School and ofMaced that ^ he be assigned to the Norlina school." Technically, Mr. Daniel neeer requested that his daughter be asigned to the Warren ton i school. It is to be assumed that as a Norlina citizen he would have preferred to have his child assigned to the Norlina school except for a safety factor. But Mr. Daniel did concur in the action of the board in assigning his daughter to the Warrenton school.
