C. State Fair history. An estimated crowd of 90,000 sun-drenched spectators swarmed over the spacious fair grounds. Masses of school children from many parts of the state were ad mitted free to the fair in observ-! ance of the annual Young North Carolinians' Day. It was also Governor's Day, and Scott played his part to the hilt. He had a full day as he looked at exhibits and livestock, launched a balloon and presented the Governor's cup to W. E. Mil ler of Washington, D. C, winner of the featured harness race. The state's chief executive re marked before cutting the rope to send the. balloon upwards that his hand was "still a little sore." He had just returned here last night from New York where he signed 50,000 bonds which com prise the first batch of the $200,- 000,000 rural road bonds sold by the state. The governor also tried his hand at operating a logging saw, tasted a prize-winning cake and ate popcorn. While examining a hay baler, he expressed his desire to own the machine but added he couldn't afford it. U. S. Senator Clyde R. Hoey accompanied the governor's party on the tour of the grounds. He termed the fair as "representative of the state both agriculturally and industrially." v 4 . A 1 JLV - f ft i v 1 S 4 ? US.

CPU Accepts Five, Gets New Adviser CPU Chairman Goldenthal said yesterday that five persons have been accepted for membership in the Carolina Political Union. The new members are John H. Sulli van, Robert E. Lee, Georgia Fox, Tom Ennis, and Jack Tripp. Dr. Louis O.

On both occasions, the Caro linians seemed to be the senti mental favorites of the local pop ulation but, nevertheless, the Tar Heels wound up on the shorty end of the score both years. This time, however, it will be a different story. Carolina is perched in the midst of an enemy camp with the local partisanship naturally favoring LSU. So far the Louisianians have played the part of a true Southern host, but according to rumors prevalent here tonight, Carolina Coach C$rl Snavely and his disciples can ex pect no favors on the field . of battle," come kkkoff time at 8 o'clock tomorrow night (9:00 EST). After a dismal season in 1943, the Tigers' football fortunes have picked up under coach GayneU Tinsley and a victory over the Tar Heels is viewed here as far from the realm of the impossible. The 1S49 edition of LSU al ready holds a coveted victory over Rice, winners last week over " the vaunted eleven of SMU, and this triumph over the recognised power of the Southwest, is fairly indicative of the scratching and clawing the Tigers can stir Up. Despite defeats at the hands of Kentucky and Georgia, the latter a victim of the Tar Heels' un blemished record, the feeling Is that the Bengals only need a good day to make the Ter Heels' 1.0O mile trip a sad one. The weather here the week has been a bit on the damp side which is welcomed by Tigers 5nd frowned on by the Tar Heels. On the basis of the record. LSU seems to be good mudders while the efficiency of Justice's runs and passes would be impaired by a soggy turf. Tiger supporters will :' be -ex horting a little fellow by the name of Charlie Pevey to per form the dirty deeds that could upset the Carolina applecart. Pevey, a mite in modern day football of only 150 lbs., will handle the LSU attack and toss quite a few aerials while the ground game chores will be dele gated to a hulk of a man with a fine family background, fullback, Elbert Van Buren. Elbert's broth er is the fabulous Steve of pro football fame and if football runs in the Van Buren household, the Tar Heel linemen will have their hands full On the Air The Carolina -LSU football game will be broadcast direct from Baton Rouge tonight starl ing at 9 o'clock (EST). Local stations carrying ih game will be WRAL in Raleigh and WDNC in Durham. Ray Reeve, of the Raleigh station. will handle the play-by-play from the field for both broad casts. WRAL is located at 1240 on the dial and WDNC is at S29. Both stations will carry the gam on FM, the Raleigh station al 105.5 megacycles and the Dur ham station at 105 to keep from getting tarre ne..
