Tobacco Crop In
County Classed As
Best In 25 Years
Moore County’s tobacco crop
this year is the finest in the past
several seasons, farmers and
agricultural leaders said this
week.
'The announcement coincided
with reports from other areas in
the flue-cured belt which said
the crop was one of the finest in
txie past quarter century.
Walter I Fields, office manager
for the Agricultural Stabilization
and Conservation Committee in
Carthage, said yesterday that
some 4,873 acres make up the to
tal allotment for Moore County.
Of that total, he added, 757 acres
had been placed in the Soil Bank
and farmers will receive $220 per
acre for the land placed in the
acreage reserve.
Some $177,000 will be alloca
ted to farmers under the Soil
Bank provisions, he added,
though he could not say when
such payments would be made.
If farmers average. $800 per
acre for their crop, one official]
estimated, Moore County would
gross about $3,200,000 this year,
a figure that would equal any
other season. That total does not
include Soil Bank payments.
Some farmers receive up to $1.-
000 gross per acre; others receive
as little as $500, depending, of
course, on the quality of the
weed.
Fields, whose office is in
charge of acreage reserve pro
grams among other duties, , said
that approximately $10’6,000
would be paid farmers in Moore
County this year for cotton land
now in the reserve. More than 60
per cent of all the county’s cot
ton allotment land is in the re
serve, he added, a statistic which
indicates that “King Cotton” is
on the way out for many farmers.
The county has a total of 2,903
acres in the cotton allotments.
There has been no report on
the cotton crop except for indiv
idual farmers in several sections.
They, by and large, said their
yield would be “good” or “better
than average.”
Tobacco farmers have already
started putting in their crop. The
warehouses in Aberdeen and
Carthage, only ones in Moore
County, are preparing for their
openings in the next few weeks.
THEATRES
SUNRISE
“Tarzan’s Fight for Life,” new
Sol Lesser Production released by
MGM marks the 40th anniversary
of “Tarzan” as a motion picture
star. It plays Sunday, Monday
and Tuesday at the Sunrise.
The first story of the jungle
king and his mate, Jane, was
filmed by the silent cameras in
1918 and there have since been 31
Tarzan pictures released.
Through the years there have
been eleven Tarzan and nineteen
Janes. The eleventh and nine-
teteth are Gordon Scott and Eve
Brent, who team for the first time
in “Tarzan’s Fight for Life,” writ
ten by Thomas Hal Phyllips, bas
ed on the characters created by
Edgar Rice Burroughs and direct
ed by Bruce Humberstone. It
marks the third Tarzan role for
Scott, following on “Tarzan’s Lost
Safari” and “Tarzan’s Hidden Jun
gle.”
Playing featured roles in the
new adventure drama are ten-
year old Rickie Sorensen, as Tar
tu, the adopted son of Tarzan and
Jane; Jill Jarmyn and Cheeta, the
irrepressible chimp.
Exciting wild animal scenes, tri
bal life and other authentic Afri
can scenes for the picture were
filmed in color by noted big game
cameraman Miki Carter during a
six month safari on the Dark Con
tinent in British East Africa, Por
tuguese East Africa, French Equa
torial Africa, Northern and South
ern Rhodesia and parts of the
Sudan, among them sections of
Africa never before photographed.
Shown in various scenes are
lion, leopard, cheeta, hyena, wild-
beast, topi, jackal, elephant, rhi
no, hippo, gazelle, antelope, dui
ker, dik-dik, waterbuck and reed-
buck. There are also innumerable
species of birds, including ostrich.
pelicans, buzzards, vultures and
hornbiUs.
“Tarzan’s Fight for Life” re
volves about the conflict between
Tarzan and the witch doctor of
the Nagasu tribe, who can only
hold his power over the natives by
proving that his sorcery is more
powerful than white man’s medi
cine.
Among the thrill highlights are
an episode in which Jane comes
close to being strangled to death;
the struggle between Tarzan and
an 18-foot python; the scene in
which Tarzan bursts his chains
and escapes from imprisonment
in a dungeon; the mangling of a
native girl by a crocodile; and the
escape and attack of the Golden
Lions.
