Kevamped Martin Quint Will Begin Season On Sunday The current basketball season will get underway here next Sunday af ternoon when the Williamston Mar tins will tangle with the strong San ford Spinners in the high school gymnasiurfl. Members of the local semi-pro squad have been hard at practice during the past several weeks and reports state that the team will be as strong as in the past years. Returning from last year's edition will be "Big Leaguer" Beaird, with his very capable shooting eye; Pap Diem, the bunch of dynamite who can do practically anything with a basketball; and Jack Manning, I steady-and dependable. Among the newcomers to the squad are Oscar Bie, Hack Gaylord and possible one or two other local boys who have not been able to take part in the workouts. The addition of Bie and Gaylord should improve the Martins' offense considerably and make them a great deal more potent on defense. Bie has had considerable experience in high er professional circles, and although he is no longer a youngster he can travel along with the best. Hack Gaylord. who played with the Wind sor Rebels last season, continues to be a dangerous player both at hitting the hoop and "hounding his man." Irving Margolis and George Sfet sos are in charge of the Martins and they have reported an exceptionally fine schedule in the making for lo court enthusiasts, which includes the House of David, the famous Red Heads who rank as the nation's top girls' team, the Pocomoke Clowns, and a number of semi-pro teams in this State.

SARATOGA are pictured as they line up for Cap tain s inspection. Aircraft carriers in the U. S. Navy are called "covered wagons" because their miniature half-acre airfields serve as the top side decks for their hangars beneath and form the largest covered decks of any type ship in the Navy. At the present time the U.S. Navy has six carriers in operation from any one of wl ? * decks as many as seventy-ft ..r pk-nes cnn be launched in eight, n minutes and can be landed in slightly more than twice this time. In sr>ite of their great height and length, these carriers are officially credited with designed speeds of from 29 to 84 knots, wnich is nearly that of the destroyers. With new Navy ships of all de scriptions being launched at the rate of at least one every ten days, the Navy and Naval Reserve need men and offer opportunities for any quali fied young man to receive free spe cialized training worth hundreds of from the first day of enlistment.
