Four SCOTT SUMMERS (Continued from Page 1) from citizens of the Louisiana cap ital. A letter from a friend there noted that the Marines were tak en to Baton Rouge, and that the city rolled out the carpet for the boys. The biggest restaurant in town gave them anything they wanted on the house and all theaters were free to Marines. Just thought you might like to know, in case your Marine was one ol those aboard. • A rash of “well-informed source” reports saying Kerr Scott will run for lieutenant-governor next year broke out last week. The governor, who knows how to go along with a gag, declin ed to give the rumor the dignity of a reply at his press conference Friday. “He just laughed, termed the idea intriguing.” Folks who say he wants the job are and have been his opponents. They claim the governor saw “how important the job was” in the last legislature, because the commit tee appointments pretty well stack ed committees against him. These folks seem to have for gotten that the governor pretty well got what he wanted out of the Legislature despite the stacked committees, because the city folks weren’t used to dealing with an old cow-trader who always ask ed for twice what he expected to get. • Children often unintentionally— or at least apparently unintention ally come up with better de scriptive expressions than grown ups. Six-year-old Staley did so the other day. He called the 38th Par allel the “38th Paralyzer.” Seems as though he hit the nail right on the head. • Raleigh has joined several other North Carolina cities and towns that are considering putting fluo rine in their city water supply. That’s the chemical that the scient ists say will cut down tooth decay some 40 percent. Adding the tooth fixer to the water will cost, so the report goes, around ten cents a head per year. It’ll be cheap enough, if it works like they say. • The State Utilities Commission has made it legal for Santa Claus to send a telegram from “the North Pole.” In approving Western Union for regulations, the commission okayed messages sign ed by Santa with the North Pole late line if it reads “North Pole via Raleigh,” or whatever city it is routed through. CONSERVATION (Continued from Page 1) this past year in Wake County. L. C. Liles, teacher of vocational agriculture, sowed it in along with wheat in the fall of 1950. The wheat was harvested in June and, notwithstanding a dry spring and summer, he has a very good stand and growth. He will use it for win ter grazing and in rotation with tobacco. By November this grass should be about 10 or 12 inches in height and will do some grow ing during the winter months. Bob Sears and Rufus Bell of Apex and A. C. Meadows of Gar ner report reasonably good stands this year. Tall fescue forms a good sod, thus reducing erosion. Some farmers are using lespedeza with it as a hay cop in the early fall. NATIONAL GUARD (Continued from Page 1) Guardsmen of the 30th Division have been to McClellan since be fore World War 11.
