STRAIGHT BOURBON WHISKEY, SIX YEARS OLD, 86 PROOF.
OLD QUAKER DISTILLING COMPANY. LAWRENCEBURG. INDIANA
An accident in which a school
bus emerged suddenly from a
private driveway, hitting a pass
ing car and knocking it over, re
sulted in the conviction of the
school bus driver in Moore Coun
ty recorders court last week.
Jerry Lee Graham, 17, of West
End pleaded not guilty but put
up no defense and judgment was
continued for him for five years
on the charge of failing to yield
right of way, causing accident
with property damages and per
sonal injury.
Sustaining injury though
slight, requiring no more than
first aid treatment—was W. J.
Woodward of Robbins, who was
on the way along the Mt. Carmel
Road to a golf game in Pinehurst
when the accident occurred. Mr.
Woodward, a well known golfer
and former Moore County cheim-
pion, and the investigating pa
trolman gave evidence in the
case.
Graham had reached the end Of
his run the afternoon of January
18, put out his last passenger ex
cept for his own younger brother,
and, turning around in the stu
dent’s yard, ran directly into the
road, the testimony showed. In
the collision with Woodward’s
car the school bus was protected
by its heavy front bumper .from
damage and neither of the Gra
ham boys was hurt.
Judge J. Vance Rowe ordered
the defendant to pay for the dam
ages to Woodward’s car' amount
ing to mor'e than $500, unless it
was paid by an insurance car
rier. School bus accidents are, un
der most conditions, covered by
the State self-insurance program.
Judge Oomments
Several other accidents had re-
percussipns in the court session,
one was that of January 9, in
which Vineyard Lester Moore of
Carthage was charged with care
less and reckless driving, acci
dent, personal injury and exten
sive property damage, after hit
ting J. C. SeawelTs truck and in
juring both Seawell and his wife.
Judgment was continued on pay
ment of $25 and costs, plus Sea-
well’s hospital and medical biUs,
and $50 to apply on the truck
damages. The judge made a con
cession in allowing the defendant
to pay off at the rate of $7.50 per
week, noting on his judgment
book, “Another argument in. favor
of compulsory liability insurance
for all cars on the highway.”
The State accepted a plea of
forcible trespass made by two
Fort Bragg soldiers,. James D
Bullion and Loy G. Davis, both
21, originally charged with break
ing into the Five O’clock Club
in Southern Pines (living quar
ters in the night time, which
could have made of this a felony
even a capital offense.) Nothing
was stolen and no harm done, and
judgment was continued for both
on payment of a joint fine of $50
and costs, also damages to the
door of the building, with 12
months on good behavior condi
tions.
Truck Confiscated
Willie Davis, of Raeford, plead
ed guilty to violation of the pro
hibition laws, with which he was
charged after two Southern Pines
police officers caught him haul
ing a half-case of ‘‘white liquor”
n their town, and he was given
six-rronths sentence, suspended
for two years on payment of $100
and costs. Alsc, his truck was con
fiscated and sold. Lorenzo Quick,
Vest Southern Pines, Davis’ com-
lanion at the time of the arrest,
was similarly charged but con-
'/inced the court he was only try
ing tC' help Davis get his truck
operating properly, and was ac-
uitted.

The dairy cow is the most effi
cient producer of calcium of any
animal species, in terms of con
verting calcium intake to calcium
produced.
To a certain extent, plant dis
eases are on the increase, but
many of cur supposedly “new”
diseases have been w.ith us for
a long time. More intensive farm
ing naturally causes disease prob
lems to mount, but part of their
abundance these days is because
they are being identified and the
losses they cause recognized.
MORE BROILERS IN '54
Commercial broiler production
in North Carolina totaled 56,827,-
000 birds in 1954. According to
the North Carolina Crop Report
ing Service, this is 12 percent
more than the 1953 production of
50,738,000 birds. This is the eighth
consecutive year in which broiler
production has increased and pro
duction in 1954 set a new record.
Moore County is one of the lead
ing broiler-producing counties in
the state. , .
The increased height of the ave
rage American man is credited to
improved diet and the tendency
for tall individuals to select tall
mates.
