f Jlr / Pflut o*:stJto^ // ZEBULON RECORD VOLUME 38. NUMBER 41. ZEBULON. N. C., OCTOBER 17. 1883 a ire HUNSmWtS MLMi km wkmncx. \H NWIE) UNIS IK i l NATIONAL NEWSPAPER WEEK OCT. 13-19, 1763 This is National Newspaper Week. All the way across the United States newspapers are taking a little time and space to tell a story to their readers. For 51 weeks newspapers have been reporting the news, giving a report of community, state, national, and interna tional life. This week newspapers have the opportunity to tell their own story. And it’s a great story to tell! The worth of a newspaper can be determined best by doing away with the newspaper. First victim of tyrants is a free press, because tyrants cannot continue where a free press is insured. Businessmen appreciate a hometown paper most when they don’t have one, because merchants in communities without a newspaper know that trade follows the newspapers. Civic groups look first to the newspaper for publicity for their many projects. When a project meets success, they are quick to see that the happy news is publicized in the local paper—front page, if possible. So it goes. Fuss with it. Cuss at it. Discuss its faults. The newspaper—big, little, daily, weekly, local, national —proves itself crucial to the lives of most Americans. In this community it’s The Zebulon Record that records the week by week progress of our people. We’v§ publi cized revivals, pancake suppers, barbecues, school plays, dances, sales, meetings, and court sessions. Dining the past year we’ve been praised until we blushed and threatened until we fumed. It’s been an interesting and seldom-dull year. We hope that’s the way you found the Record. Some time this week try to find time to drop in our plant for a visit. We’ll be proud to show you around the back shop. The Record belongs to the community, and we’d like everybody to see where it is produced. Why not stop by today?

Louisburg Is 13-0 Victor Over Bulldogs By Wayne Davis Taking advantage of a 15 yard penalty and an intercepted pass, a strong Louisburg team defeated Wakelon 13-0. Two 15 yard pen alties set up the first Louisburg score and an intercepted pass started the second scoring drive. This is not an attempt to alibi for the Bulldogs, because Louisburg has an outstanding defensive team, but Wakelon was guilty of two fumbles, having two passes inter cepted, and being penalized at crucial moments. First Half The Louisburg Bulldogs marched to Wakelon’s 32 after taking the opening kick. There the drive stalled and Wakelon had its first attempt with the ball. The Bulldogs moved for a first down in two running plays, but at this point the penalty bug stepped in with the Bulldogs being set back 15 yards for holding. They were unable to get out of the hole and were forced to kick. Covering the kick, a Bulldog failed to see the fair catch sig nal and made contact with the Louisburg ball carrier. This re sulted in another 15 yard penalty against the Bulldogs, putting Louisburg in business on the Wakelon 38. From there Louisburg moved in for the. score in 10 rushes. The first quarter ended with the extra point conversion. 2nd quarter started with Johnny Clark failing to connect on three pass attempts. Thurston Debnam’s kick to the Louisburg 35 was fum bled and recovered by Kenny Tem ple for what looked like a Wake Ion break. This opportunity was nipped when the Bulldogs fum bled a crucial fourth down play. Two plays later Wakelon was back in business again on the Louisburg 40, but missed on a fourth and two situation. The first half ended with Louisburg leading 7-0. Second Half The second half started with the Bulldogs showing a wide open spread offense. Jerry Brayboy led a 30 yard move that ended when Louisburg picked off a pass on the 50. Louisburg failed to gain and kicked into the end-zone. The Bulldogs started another march, but this was killed a sec ond time by a pass interception at mid-field. This time Louidburg mounted its second scoring drive and a 13-0 lead. Wakelon took the ball on their 40 when the Louisburg kickoff went out of bounds. Brayboy clipped off 15 yards to the Louis burg 45, but on the next play a pitch-back was missed and Louis burg recovered on the Bulldog 33. Louisburg failed to gain and kick ed into the end-zone. From the 20 Wakelon, led by Johnny Clark’s arm, moved 68 yards through the air. This drive terminated on the Louisburg 12 when a short fourth down jump pass missed. After being held to just 20 yards gained in the first half, the Bull dogs opened up the second half with a passing attack and spread formation and had a chance to pull the game out, until the sec ond Louisburg score. However mistakes eliminated any hopes for a come back. Wakelon lost the game, but from here it looks as if the Bull dogs may have found a much needed passing game. It was evident as the second half of the game progressed that Johnny Clark gained confidence and was passing with a new found authority. Wakelon’s ability to pass will be a factor in Friday’s game with Wendell. ... . _ Abs woAciun vs. weuoeu uus Friday. It looks like Wakelon's speed against Wendell’s size and we do mean size. We have it that one of the Wendell tackles will tip the scales at 301 pounds. This will probably be the last time that a Wendell football team will play in Zebulon, and it’s homecoming too.

EVERYBODY HAD A TIME? Visit to State Fair —by the Editor— The 1963 grandstand show at North Carolina State Fair is out standing, according to the consen sus of newspapermen and legisla tors who saw a preview presenta tion of the varied program Mon day night. Among those present were Gov ernor and Mrs. Terry Sanford, Commissioner of Agriculture Stag Ballentine, Secretary of State Thad Eure, and Editor and Mrs. Barrie Davis. Everybody had a wonderful time. I thought the Rockette dancing girls were skilled, talented, and beautiful. Judy thought the high wire artists had the best act. Then came Mr. Chitwood and his Hell Drivers! Wheeling, spinning, skidding, Jumping, clowning, those crazy people did unbelievable things with automobiles, and nobody got hurt. Judy watched them roar back and forth, and exclaimed: “I’ve found my calling!” It looked like fun, and it was fun looking. There were so many acts we liked that all can’t be listed. It's easier to name the two that should be changed. , The vocalists may have been superior, but the acoustical cha racteristics of the grand stand and its public address system were never meant for such entertain ment. Those of the cast we met proved interesting people. The German juggler who tossed three hats in amazing fashion joined us in the grandstand to watch the Hell Dri vers. “This looks like fun,” Judy said. “Can’t I join your act?” “I’m looking for a two-headed man to take care of my extra hats,” said the juggler. So Judy turned to the gentleman who was with the high wire per formers. “I like your act best, anyway,” she said. “When can I try out?” “Oh, gut,” he said with a pleas ed, gutteral voice. “You come to morrow and change the light bulbs over the wire.” (Continued on Page 4)
