C., Friday, October 26, 1951 Zebulon Members Os National Guard Stand Inspection “Your men are far superior to your facilities,” Colonel J. C. Sal man, 3rd Army Inspector General, told Capt. Barrie Davis following the inspection of Battery A of the 113th Field Artillery Battalion. Al though citing the need for further improvement, Col. Salmon was well pleased with the appearance and training of the men in the Zebulon National Guard unit. A rating of “Excellent” was a warded the battery by the Inspec tor General. Col. Salmon and his assistant, WO Owens, began the inspection at 3 o’clock in the afternoon, checking carefully all the records and equipment. Only minor faults were found, and the inspector com , hmented Cpl. Elton Price, care taker, on the excellent condition of the vehicles. In his tour of the armory, which is located in the rear of the Town of Zebulon Water Plant, Col. Salmon observed that the building was inadequate for an armory, unsafe for storage of government property, and a handicap to the men. ersonal Check During the first hour of drill Monday night, a personal inspec tion of each man in the battery was conducted. Col. Salmon ques tioned the men on their knowledge of the organization and functions of sections in the battery and on their personal duties. “Your men are well-instructed on their duties, which is proved by the excellent grade they received for their work in summer camp,” the Colonel told Capt. Davis, “but more work should be given to the fundamentals of first aid, which may save their lives sometime in the future.” Voices Compliments Col. Salmon voiced high compli ments of the men in the battery. “They are good men,” he said, “with s+rong faces. They will make excellent soldiers.” He stat ed that the appearance of the ma jority of the men was deserving of a superior rating, but “two of the men looked as though they had just crawled out of bed with their uniforms on, and a superior rating means that everything is perfect.” Two of the classes drew praise from the Inspector General. Sgt. John Clark’s communications class, conducted in the Boy Scout hut, was cited by the Colonel as super ior. Sgt. Clark was reviewing the past year’s work, and his men were setting up a complete tele phone system, with phones and switchboard in operation. Other Class Cited The other class cited by the Col onel was attended by the canno neers, who were taught the fun damentals of map reading by Lt. James Potter, executive officer. Lt. Potter used charts and a mo tion picture in his class. Visitors attending the drill in cluding Major Edward Yarbor ough, commanding officer of the 113th Field Artillery Battlion from Louisburg; Major Darrell Perry, Battalion Executive Officer; Lt. Col. Arthur C. Ball, Regular Armory Instructor; Capt. Collin McKinne, Battlion Operations and Training Officer; Capt. Malcolm Holmes, commanding officer of' Headquarters Battery; and Sfc. Frank, assistant to the Regular Army Instructor. (Continued on Page 8) LOCAL COACH * jij^T B * '-we w” v ; y >£■ Pictured is Herbert L.

Speeding on Streets and Highways Causes 17,195 Arrests in 9 Months Speeding on the streets and highways of the state resulted in the arrest and conviction of 17,195 North Carolina motorists during the first nine months of the year. The Department of Motor Vehi cles, in releasing the figures today, reported speeders as the major offenders in the department’s cam paign for general highway safety. September, the department add ed, was the worst month of the third quarter with 2,580 speeding violations reported. The overall summary of traffic violations, however, was generally lower than the first nine months of 1950. During the third quarter of this year the department recorded, in addition to the 17,795 speeding of fenses, 10,074 reckless driving vio lations and 10,833 cases of no ope rator’s license.

Heating Checkup For Farm Homes Urged by Agent With cold weather approaching, it’s a good idea for farm families to check their heating equipment and make sure it’s in good condi tion for safe winter service, says Grady Miller, Wake County farm agent for the State College Exten sion Service Farm property fires always in crease in both numbers and sever ity as the winter season approach es. A little attention to the prob lem now may save costly and trag !c fires later in the season, says the county agent. Winter also usually brings a toll of casualties from carbon monox ide. This deadly gas is colorless and odorless and gives no warning. Defective chimneys rank high as a cause of farm fires during the heating season. All joints should be tight and a spark arres tor installed when combustible roofs are nearby. All stove and furnace pipes should be put in good condition and located a safe distance from combustible walls, ceilings, curtains, and pagers. Safety Suggestions The National Safety Council makes these additional sugges tions: Repair cracks or other defects and replace rusted and burned-out stove and furnace pipes. Make sure that combustible ma terials are protected. Use a metal or asbestos floor covering under wood or coal-burning stoves. Use double metal-ventilated thimbles where stove pipes pass through walls. Never use petroleum products to start or hasten a fire. See that tank heaters, feed heat ers, and other type of heating equipment around the farmstead are installed safely and kept in good repair. Make sure that dampers in stoves and furnaces are never closed enough to force carbon monoxide or other gases out into the room. P-TA SUPPER A barbecue supper will be serv ed in the Wakelon cafeteria tonight from 5:30 to 8:00 by the Wakelon School Parent - Teacher Associa tion. Plates are $1 each. Proceeds from the supper will be used to help finance the PTA project for the year. cations were by far the major of fenses listed on the department’s summary. Other offenses accounted for the following convictions; faulty e quipment, 3,1,00; improper passing, 1,139; failing to stop at stop sign, 2,165 and bad lights, 1,598. Altogether 52,032 North Carolina motorists were found b jilty of moving violations on the highways of the state, an encouraging drop from the 73,228 convicted of like charges during the first nine months last year. Biggest decreases for the same period were noted in the number of motorists accused of having im proper lights, 3,299 last year as against 1,598 this year, and disre gard for the safety and rights of others down from 185 last year to 51.
