THE ZEBULON RECORD Volume XXVII. Number 8. Wakelon Gridders Roll to 41-0 Win Over Nash Eleven A fired-up Wakelon football team runs circles around the visit ing Nashville gridiron squad last Friday night and Bulldogs reeled off six touchdowns to trample Nashville 41-0. Wakclon’s passing and running attack completely baffled the losers. A small crowd was on hand to watch the game, and gate receipts were barely sufficient to pay the game expenses. Keith Temple worked the old quarterback sneak for 30 yards and the initial touchdown in the first period. He passed to Alton Temple for the extra point to give Wakelon a 7-0 lead. Still in the fi rs t quarter, Irving Murphy charged over guard for 10 yards and Wakelon’s second touchdown. Keith Temple scored to extra point on another quarter back sneak. Trevathan went over left guard for four yards in the second per iod, and Tant kicked the extra point from the 17 yard line to run the score to 21-0. Alton Tem ple ran 40 yards on a reverse to bring the score to 27-0 at half time Third Quarter The score in the third quarter came on a 35 yard pass play from Temple to Thevathan. Tant again kicked the extra point. In the fourth period Alton Tem ple scored on a reverse for the fi nal touchdown. As a birthday gift to tackle Lowell Liles, the Bull dogs put him in the backfield and he ran the extra point over to tal ly the final point. Coach Herb Holt said every man on the team played exceptional football, and he expects another victory on Thursday night against Apex. He and Principal W. R. Whittenton of Wakelon expressed their disappointment at the small crowds which have attended the games played at Wakelon.

C., Tuesday, October 28, 1952 Community Chest Drive Begins In Zebulon Tomorrow Morning Proposed Wake Clinics, Hospital Additions Are Discussed by Rotarians The problem of a 20-bed clinic for east Wake County filled the program time for the Zebulon Rot ary Club last Friday night. Dr. Ben D. Thomas presented the prob lems, explained what must be done to obtain the clinic, and told of the facilities the proposed clinic will have. Spirited discussion followed. According to Dr. Thomas, the clinic will have from 20 to 25 beds, and will fill a pressing need for hospital facilities in this part of the county. Registered nurses will be on duty and doctors will be on call at all times: The clinic, one of three to be built in Wake County, would be financed through a bond issue from the county. Other clinics would be built at Fuquay Springs and Apex. Rex and St. Agnes Hospitals in Raleigh would be enlarged, if the bond issue were approved. Approval Held Up The holdup in having a vote on the bond issue comes from lack of approval by the Local Govern ment Commission. People of over the county have urged that Wake County be given an opportunity to vote on the bond issue but several prominent Raleigh people have op posed clinics for the county. It was pointed out during the discussion period that some Ral eigh opposition stemmed from a beliel that the rural clinics will operate at a 'oss. At the same time, it was suggested that the Raleigh hospitals have had to raise their charges several times in efforts to operate at a profit. Plart Bed Work Urged This Month October is the month for treat ing pi int beds and one pound of cyanamid per square yard gives satisfactory weed control and costs less than most other ti'eatments, R. R. Bennett, State College exten sion tobacco specialist, asserts. Bennett also points out that 16- : 6-2 supplies the fertilizer needed for plant growth and it contains cyanamid and fertilizer grade urea for weed control. Another effective treatment for weed control, but one which should | be used only by growers who will | provide ample water for the beds at seed germination time and shortly thereafter, is one pound of fertilizer grade urea and one-half pound cyanamid per square yard. While more expensive than oth er treatments, methyl bromide gas is effective in weed and nematode control. 0 Before applying any of these ma terials, rake the beds free of trash, use a coulter-type plow, dies har row and a smoothing harrow to prepar£ a well-pulverized seed bed. Regardless of treatment used, ap ply one-half to two-thirds of the recommended amount and mix thoroughly with the top three or four inches of soil, using a drag harrow and going over the bed eight to 10 times. Then apply the remainder of the material and rake the bed lightly with a five pronged pitch fork. TEACHER vflr EBB Mrs. Alease Bass Compton is one of three eighth grade teachers at Wakelon School. Mrs. Compton is from Hailwood, and her hus band is a student in the School of Law at Wake Forest College. Terraces Are Built By Nash Farmers By P. H. Massey Terraces were staked during the past week on the farm of L. R. Joyner of the Coopers School sec tion and Luther T. Bullock of near Rocky Mount. These farmers plan to construct these terraces with their individual farm equipment. On the Joyner farm a grass mead ow had to be established as an outlet for terrace water. This will be utilized as hay as well as a safe means of conducting water out of the field. Farm ponds were surveyed for E. T. House on the Boddy Ward Farm and Ernest Matthews in the Batchelors store section. Plans are to secure the services of some heavy equipment in the construc tion of the ponds. Both farmers are in the livestock business and the ponds will furnish water for this purpose as well as being a fish pond. The Tar River Soil Con servation District will assist in se curing the fish for stocking. Approval Noted Notice of approval has been re ceived for delivery of bream for the stocking of eight ponds in Nash County. Delivery will be made this fall. Bass stocking will be made in the spring to complete the stocking. Soil conservation surveys show (See NASH, Page 4) FOOTBALL To avoid conflict with the Halloween Carnivals sched uled for Friday night of this week, the Wakelon-Apex football game will be play ed on Thursday night at 8:00 under the light on the Wake lon field. The game against Wendell the following week has also been moved to Thursday, November 6, and will start at 8:00 on the Wakelon field. This will be the season's last home game. Theo. Davis Sons, Publishers Record Campaign Goal Sought by Workers; Five Groups Cooperate The most intensive campaign for funds in the history of Zebu lon will begin tomorrow morning when a host of solicitors will can vass Zebulon for contributions to the Zebulon Community Chest. During the three days that the campaign will require, every per son in the entire community will be given an opportunity to contri bute. Membership cards showing the amount of the donation will be given to every person giving SI.OO or more to the Community Chest. Five agencies participate in the Zebulon Community Chest. These are the Scouting organizations, lo cal welfare, free school lunches, the recreation program, and the United Defense • Fund. Tonight in the municipal build ing members of the campaign or ganization will attend a meeting where materials will be issued and the work for the three days ex plained, according to Ralph Talton, campaign director. The goal of $2,400 set this year is the highest ever attempted by the Zebulon Community Chest. Last year, when no goal was set, about SSOO was raised, and the Scouting groups required nearly S4OO of this. As a result, the rec reation program had a difficult time operating during the past summer. Publicity has been given to the coming drive through the Zebulon Record and by posters placed all over town. During the campaign, a large thermometer will indicate how the drive is progressing, and on Friday, a preliminary report will be published in the Record. Shepard PTA Has Goal Set for Year The Shepard School Parent Teacher Association has set a goal of $3,000.00 in its Financial Drive for funds to equip a new Auditori um which is nearing completion on the school campus. This sum is the minimum needed to provide stage curtains, cyclorama, public adress system, concert piano, and electric score board. In the event that an authorized solicitor approaches you for a contribution to the cause, please give generously, says Princial Garland L. Crewsi. " These individuals have been selected and approved by the Shepard High School P.T.A. to solicit funds for the 1952 Financial Drive. Each person listed here will be given a letter to authorize them to collect funds for the drive, and to keep a complete list of all donors and the amount given.
