AstCAPITAL REPORTER North Carolina’s two senators— Clyde Hoey and Willis Smith, both Democrats are expected to go along with the administration’s foreign policy in general. But both of the conservative gentlemen are expected to oppose any “Fair Deal” domestic legislation. Some notes on Mr. Smith: Dur- ! ing the “lame duck” session of Congress he probably will use the same office Frank Graham occu pied while senator. When the new j congress convenes, he may move. Banks Arendell, Raleigh lawyer who was a Smith aide in the two primaries, and Smith’s Campaign Manager Charles Green of Louis burg will go to Washington with Smith to help set up the senator’s office. The arrangement is ex pected to be temporary. Perma nent staff members probably will be announced by the time you read this. Mentioned for the two posts— secretary and special assistant are Santford Martin, Jr., son of the Winston-Salem editor and now at Gardner-Webb College in Shel by, and Charlie Daniel of Fuquay R, S, T Drivers Have 45 Days To Renew Licenses, Says Hocutt Driver’s License Examiner C. M. Hocutt of Zebulon, said today that the R, S, T, group represents the largest of the groups of mo torists who must stand examina tion for drivers license renewals, and only a month and a half re mains in which they may obtain renewals. He stated that motorists in the R, S, T, group are, on the whole, applying regularly at his station, but an examiner seldom can give more than 20 tests per day. Examiner Hocutt urges the re mainder of the R, S, T, category in Springs, an ardent Smith suppor ter. Smith’s Campaign Publicist Hoover Adams of Dunn and Type writer Salesman-Radio Commen tator Alvin Wingfield say they are out of the running. Smith may not take his Senate I seat until around December 1, un less some way for a pre-signing of his certificate of election is found. Although it will be ready for Gov ernor Scott’s signature after the State Board of Elections session November 27, the Governor will be out of the State. Normally, the certificate would be signed, and Smith would take the oath of of fice in Washington the next day. But the Governor may not get back from Chicago, where he is ad dressing the National 4-H session, until November 29 or later. So— unless the Governor can sign a blank certificate before he leaves, or some other method can be de vised, Mr. Smith’s trip to Washing ton may be delayed a few days. • Here’s an interesting note from (Continued on Page 8) his area to report to his station now and avoid a last minute rush. If you wait until the deadline, De cember 1, approaches, your chances of waiting in a long line increase, he said. On January 1, the U, V, W, X, Y, Z motorists will be subject to renewals. The daily schedule for Exami ner Hocutt will be as follows: Zebulon, N. C on Monday and Tuesday of each week. Wendell, N. C on Wednesday. Spring Hope on Thursday and Friday. Zebulon, N.

Woodhouse, Dis trict Biologist with the Wildlife Resources Commission came by my office recently and stated that plants are now being shipped to farmers who have applied for them. Mr. Woodhouse is of the opinion that farmers in Wake County would get higher survival of bicolor plants if planted in early winter, say December or January, rather than in March and April. These plants are free and may be applied for through the Soil Con servation Service Office located in the County Building at the corner of Davie and McDowell Streets, or to the Wildlife Resources Commis sion. • Mr. John F. Mcßane entered on duty as an employee of the Soil Conservation Service in our office to assist in the district soil conser vation program.

Football Players Awarded Letters At Close of Successful Season The Wakelon Bulldogs com pleted one of the best season’s in Wakelon’s history three weeks ago when they battled a heavier Cary eleven to a 0-0 tie. With prospects dim for a good season in early September, the Wakelon squad won five, tied two, and lost only two games during the season. Coached by Herb Appenzeller, the team employed the split T at tack. Jimmy Allen assisted as line coach and helped develop a tough forward wall. Lee Rhodes, who directed the summer recreation Theo. Davis Sons, Publishers Baptist Church Dedicated By Pilot Community At Services on Sunday Sunday was a “red letter day” for the village and community of Pilot, seven miles east of Zeb ulon on the Rocky Mount high way. To a packed house Dr. M. A. Huggins preached the dedication sermon. Sunday School preceded the sermon. Nearly 300 people gathered for this service. The reg ular Sunday School offering was about $75.00. The Sunday before was over $60.00 Following the morning services dinner was spread on tables on the school grounds. Pilot is fa mous for its barbecue, chicken and cake dinners, and this occasion i added to its fame. After dinner the people gather ed in the church for a second ser vice. Rev. V. E. Duncan, Associa tional Missionary, spoke on “The Power of the Task ” emphasizing the needs of the Tar River Associa tion. Following Rev. E. N. Gard ner, pastor of the First Baptist ! Church in Henderson, and also Moderator of the Association, dis cussed “Our Association for Christ.” Pilot Baptist church has within about a year completed and paid for one of the most beautiful and complete church houses in Eastern Carolina at a cost of approximate ly $90,000. Nearly $50,000 were cash contributions. The balance was contributed in material and labor. Beautiful memorial win dows give soft light. Too large oil burning heating plants make both the church and S. S. annex com fortable. The auditorium is com plete with oak seats, pulpit and communion furniture, choir loft and baptistry. A vested choir fur nished special music for the occa sion, directed by Cadwin Cone. Many former residents and friends of the church gathered with the community in celebrating this very auspicious occasion in the life of this progressive neighbor of Zebulon just over the line in Franklin County.

Horton, president. | program, assisted in scouting. In the Cary game, even though they were three-touchdown under dogs, the Bulldogs exhibited the spirit which carried them through the season, including two one-point victories over Wendell. The squad was handicapped by the small number of men report ing and the light weight line. The pre-season practice at the John’s River Camp in the western North Carolina mountains helped the team tremendously, Coach Ap (Continued on Page 8)
