(Staff Photo) COMMITTEES ARE NAMED - Planning For Local Talent Review In June Under Way Farmer* have received a new warning about the hog choleri situation this spring. Cholera seems to be on thi march again. New and severe out breaks occurred in many states, over wide areas, last year. And now, with the spring season for cholera practically here, we have real cause for concern, unless ?Wine raisers take steps to have their herds protectr ' against the disease. The only protection against cholera Is to have pigs vac cinated before an outbreak strikes. The farmer's greatest danger lies . in a false sense of security with regard to cholera. For up wards of fifteen years, most farm ers kept their herds vaccinated Tills built resistance in great area depth and outbreaks fell off sharp ly. Now, many owners seem to have been lulled into taking chances, letting pigs go unvac cinated. The result was the severe ? wave of outbreaks which struck last season. And many more of these disastrous outbreaks are ex pected this spring, as cholera hits its stride again. What to do? The important thing is to have every pig vacci nated BEFORE cholera strikes. There is no cure. The only protec tion is vaccination in advance. Several types of vaccines now give solid protection against chol era. Which should be used is best left up to the veterinarian. There I are several reasons for this. First, all pigs need a checkup before vaccination, to be sure they are in proper condition. Second, local conditions and the condition of the pigs enters into determining which i kind of vaccine is best. Here are some tell-tale signs of cholera to watch for: Slow pigs . with a poor appetite, dullness, listlessness. a desire of pigs to stay in theii1 nests, walking with a staggering, weaving gait The spring cholera season 15 here. The producer who values his profits will do well to have his pigs protected without further de lay. Planning alieady is uncer way for the annual "Red Stocking Re /iew". a local talent production I Kim:.' rid by the Franklin Junior Woman's Club. It is slatetl for June 161718 arid club officers request other organizations not to schedule any .activities on these nights, if pos ble. The money raised is to sup po t the club's "Shoes for Needy Children" project, which takes several hundred dollars each yea! from the club treasury. Staged with the help of Pro ducer Jerome H. Cargill, of New York City, who furnishes a pro fessional director and all costumes and backdrops and the like, "Red Stocking Review" uses only local talent in its dance routines and skits. Last year's show played to packed houses the two nights it was staged in Franklin. Wednesday of last week. Frank A.

Aldermen Okay Water Line For Two Businesses The Franklin Board of Alder men met April 12 and voted to allow M. L. Stiles and Harry Womack to hook up a two-inch water line running to Mr. Stiles' new restaurant and Mr. Womacks' new motel on US 23-441 east. A question had arisen as to the size line required. The original plan called for a four inch line, which would be bought by the town when the city limits were extended to take in this property Mr. Stiles told the board the four-inch line had proven too costly and that he and Mi . Wom ack would bear all expenses of the two-inch line if the beard would allow them to tap onto the town's water system. I On a motion by Alderman Frank I L. Henry, Jr.. the boaVd voted to I allow the hook-up if Mr. Stiles j and Mr. Wcmack would pay all costs of the line and meters and I meter charges, would own the | line privately, and would allow j no other hook-ups to this line. The board also voted affirma tively on a motion by Dr. J. W. Kahn specifying that for any future lines running outside the city limits, the parties putting in the lines would have to meet with the board before installation to agree on specifications.

APRIL 24-28 "Operation Petticoat" SUNDAY Thru THURSDAY No. 1 services you and I give will, in the final estimate, determine the kind and type of schools you will have ... a school re flects the character of its com munity." Discusses Points Introduced by District Presi dent Erwin Patton, of Franklin, Mr. Ross also* discussed some legislative points, including a bill he co-authored at the last session to eliminate the 12th grade in school and have in stead a longer school year of 200 days, Instead of the re quired 180 days. This bill was defeated in the house, but a substitute measure provided for a study commis sion to probe the Issues and report back to the General As sembly. Mr. Ross Is serving as a member of that commission The speaker frankly admitted he didn't "know If that is the solution, but it Is one ovenue that needs exploring." He also raised the question of using the semester system in Tar Heel schools, instead of quarters, as "another unex plored avenue". Not Economical On the subject of the 18#- day school year, as compared with 365 working days in each year, Mr. Ross said from "the stand point of business It is not an economical situation. Although he said the addition of the 12th grade in North Carolina was politically, not professionally inspired, he said he could pick no quarrel with the Idea that an extra year adds maturity to students. However, if the 12th grade could be eliminated and teach ers could teach 10 months (200 days) instead of nine, it would be more economical to the state and teachers would re ceive an average of $400 more in their annual salary for the extra month, easing some of the financial burden placed upon them. Only Acceptable In '81, the appropriations bill passed by the General Assem bly will "satisfy no one ... it will be acceptable, but a com promise between what they would like to do and what they can do," Mr. Ross declared. He challenged his audience to consider two questions: (l) Are we getting the most for our money? (2) Are we getting the most out of our facilities? Prior to the supper meeting at which Mr. Ross spoke, the school officials held special forums at Franklin High School and discussed current problems in their particular fields. The meal was served In the high school cafeteria by the lunchroom staff. No. 2 They left there in 1956 and Mr. Cox opened an accounting office here.
