DIXIE INN, Vass, N. C.
Dear Sir:
Please reserve for my wife and me a room with
bath Oct. 3 and 4. We spent one night there last
November and enjoyed the restful, informal at
mosphere. We also would like more of your DE
LICIOUS COUNTRY HAM ! We will arrive
about 8 p. m. Sincerely,
Commander R. A. Wallace, M. C.
Naval Base, Charleston, S. C.
Again on Oct. 10, 1952:
—^We want to thank you and Mrs. Credle for a
very pleasant stay at the DIXIE INN, where Mrs.
Wallace and I ESPECIALLY ENJOYED THE
DELICIOUS HOME COOKED MEALS ! We
want to return and play some of the many golf
courses nearby. Sincerely,
Commander R. A. Wallace. M. C.
For reservations, call Vass 9-7F11
Negroes of the Robbins communi
ty into Moore County recorders
court at Carthage Monday, and
earned stiff sentences for the four
men,'while the woman was ac
quitted.
Testimony showed that the five
were riding around on a recent
evening when one of them, Harri
son Myatt, spoke up, “Let’s go get
that hog.” Myatt, Garland Ghent
and Bernie Simmons went and
got the hog, which happened to
belong to one Alfred Poole. Clyde
Simmons obligingly held open the
trunk of the car while the others
crammed in the hog. Thelma Rit
ter in the meantime remained un
protesting in the car.
Later Myatt, Ghent and Clyde
Simmons sold the hog and divided
the $30 proceeds among them.
For this Judge J. Vance Rowe
gave Myatt a straight six months
on the roads. Ghent and Clyde
Simmons . also drew six-month
sentences, suspended on payment
of fines of $50 each plus costs, and
were placed on state probation
for three years. Bemie Simmons
got off lighter—a three months’
sentence, suspended on payment
of $50 and costs, as his part was
purely one of accomm.odation and
he did not share in the proceeds
of the sale.
Thelma protested that she did
not know the men had no business
getting that hog. She should have
known, said the judge, but since
her part in the action was purely
passive he found her not guilty.
The trial was unduly prolonged
by quibblings of judge and law
yers over the meaning of the word
•“intent” as regards a misdemean
or, and legal tomes were searched
at length while the prosecuting
witness, Poole, and defendants sat
in stolid calm.
Arson Case
Livelier action weis seen earlier
in the day when George Rogers,
Negro, of Southern Pines said he
wasn’t the one who set Ed Dowd’s
house afire in six places, while
Ed Dowd insisted he had caught
George in the act. Southern Pines
police testified to Dowd’s com
plaint, and the fact of the fire,
also to their arrest of Rogers in
bed at his home.
Dowd said Rogers had jumped
up and run away when caught,*
exclaiming, “You caught me,
didn’t you!” Probable cause was
found against Rogers and he was
jailed in default of $1,000 bond, to
face grand jury action on a charge
of attempted arson.
Biggest Draft Call
Is Received For
January Induction
Summons For 65
Moore Men Will
Take All Eligibles
Moore county has received its
biggest draft call to date, for 65
men, to be inducted in January,
it was learned from Mrs. Harry
W. Davis, selective service clerk,
at Carthage.
Previous high was 40 men in
ducted in January 1952. Monthly
calls since then have been fairly
smqll and there was no anticipa
tion of, or explanation given for,
the big jump upward next month.
The call is expected to clean out
the reserves of all who have had
preinduction exams and are clas
sified as 1-A, just about using up
the avaiable crop of 20-year-olds.
If the large calls for preinduction
and induction continue, the 19-
year-olds will soon be reached.
Two preinduction calls for De
cember also add up to a large to
tal. Thirty will go for preinduc
tion exams today Friday, and 30
more December 18. These will be
composed of men who were born
from August to December 1932.
The December induction call
is for 10 men, to be inducted Mon
day. Only nine will go as two oth
ers designated for this group were
deferred as students, Mrs. Davis
said. Leaving for the Army will
be Richard Comer, Cameron Rt.
1; James Furr, Vass Rt. 2; Ernest
Ransdell, Pinehurst; Eugene
Black, West End Rt. 1; Claude
Smith, Aberdeen Rt. 1; Benjamin
Smith, Carthage Rt. 2; Joseph

court orders warrant against de
fendant to be reinstated.

ter, Robbins Rt. 1, and Robert
Byrd, Cameron Rt. 1. The last
four are Negro,es.
N. C. Elks Select
Southern Pines As
Convention Site
The North Carolina Elks assoc
iation, holding their winter meet
ing at Charlotte last weekend,
voted unanimously to come to
Southern Pines for their annual
convention in the spring.
This was a spontaneous action
on the convention’s part, and was
made subject to the approval of
the Southern Pines Elks Lodge at
its next regular meeting, to be
held December 18.
The local lodge was host to the
convention in June 1950, at what
was said to be one of the most
successful and enjoyable events
the state organization has ever
held. Since that time the local
lodge has moved its headquarters
to the Southern Pines Country
club, which will be the site of con-
vention sessions and banquet if
the meeting is held here.
Delegates to the Charlotte meet
ing were Exalted Ruler Dr. David
W. Whitehead and Don Madigan.
Before the question Of a site was
put to a v6te, they were asked if
the convenion could come here.
Without authorization from their
home lodge to extend an invita
tion, they could make only tenta
tive affirmation.
Between 150 and 200 Elks, with
their wives, usually attend the
state conventions.
