E fiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiniu VOLUME XLIV—29 Plymouth, Washington County, North Carolina, Friday, July 21, 1933 ESTABLISHED 1889 FISHING TRIP TO LAKE PHELPS IS TOPIC OF STORY -- Native of County Writes of Trip in Sports Magazine Of Recent Issue -w Excerpts from a story entitled “Bass fishing in the Great Lakes of North Carolina,” written by Charles F. White that contains a narration of the author’s visit to Lake Phelps in Wash ington County to secure a bass for mounting in a northern museum ap peared in the July issue of the At lantic Sportsman, now off the press. It appears that Mr. White is a na tive of Washington County, with Cres well as the spot known as “his home town.” He had been to New York or some distant city for years and had dreamed and yearned for the time for him to return to this place, even if it was for a couple of days at a time. The story was written of a trip some years ago, “It was Shird who met me at the station with the old flivver at Cres well, the nearest railroad station to the Great Lake of North Carolina, so widely known for its bountiful sup ply of pike and big mouth bass. “After the siege of handshaking was over, Shird, one of the most pleasing lake guides that it has been my privi lege to know, said in his long south ern drawl, “Cap, let’s get going and we can get in some fishing afore the sun goes down, as the old lady will have dinner afore we get down to the lake.’ “After putting the luggage in the car and wedging ourselves in the front seat we were off with a snort and a puff to oover jth'e remaining etight miles between my home town and Lake Phelps, of which I had been dreaming for the past month, and knowing my guide as 1 did, I knew that I would feel the welcome pull and dart of a large pike or bass or a beautiful glistening white perch, just whichever he knew was hungry at that special time of the day in that season of the year. I “Passing along a line of average village houses, we came to a small river bridge. After crossing the bridge and going through a wood we round ed a corner; before us lay a beautiful field and the easy rising, rolling coun try. About three or four miles out we came to the canal road that was used as a drainway for the last farm. “This farm was an enormous planta tion consisting of thousands of acres of rich black soil and on whose head lands grew a bountiful supply of par tridge peas, together with several oth er kinds of wild bird food and also furnished a first-class protection for birds against the hard winter weather. “So after a long day’s ride we came almost to the edge of this clearing, and we drove up to a little cottage, the abode of the faithful Shird and his flock—a good wife and six children.” This serves to show that the writ er in his description knew the coun try that he visited, and the remainder of the tale tells of how he landed the eight-pound bass that he was take back to the museum for mounting and of the thrills he experienced in fishing in the popular Waihinijfton County lake. Firestone Has Interesting Exhibit at World’s Fair “There is one opportunity that I hope none of the motrists of this city will miss—a vacation visit to the World's Fair—because it is the chante of a lifetime,” says L. V. Landing, Firestone dealer. “It will he the most enjoyable trip for you and your fam ily, and you will see things that you may never have the chance to see again—remember, it has been 40 years since the last World’s Fair at Chicago. “The Firestone Factory and Exhibi tion Building—one of the greatest at tractions of the Fair—is both fascinat ing anti educational,” Mr. Landing continued. “Everybody wants to know how tires are made, yet few have been able to go through the Fire stone Factory at Akron or Los An geles. Now that Firestone has built this factory at the World’s Fair, every visitor can see Gum-Dipped tires made. -$ Cherry Club Meets Cherry.—The Cherry Home Dem onstration Club met with Mrs. Joe Woodley Tuesday with 12 members present. Through the absence of the presi dent, Mrs. Bessie White was in charge of the meeting. It was decided to have a picnic on the next meeting date. Miss Patterson gave a very interest ing lecture on personal appearance. After the meeting we enjoyed a de lightful social hour. The hostess served a delicious sweet course. ' BASEBALL SIDELIGHTS ; V___* Walter Davis turned in his 12th j win out of 14 starts as Plymouth de I feated Battery D of New Bern, 10 to j 2, here Sunday. The 130-pound pitch . ing marvel allowed the visitors only 1 five safeties and whiffed 7. Joe Gurganus with a homer and two doubles led the victors with Jack Brown following in the footsteps of | his mate with two singles as Harry Van Horn counted a homer and a 'double. Marcen and Kennel], both southpaws, yielded 13 hits in the on | slaught of Plymouth sluggers, i This makes the third victory for the j locals against New Bern this season [against one defeat that was suffered | in New Bern Saturtjhy, when Bill : Ferebee checked Plymouth at nine hits, while his mates pounded Dewey Melton for nine and a 6 to 1 victory. A wild pitch in the ninth inning by Red Blount permitted Sculley to race home with the winning run as Ply mouth defeated Columbia, 3 to 2, here today. Chappell doubled to tie the score in the ninth, sending in Melton, who was walked by Booth before he was yanked in favor of Blount.

WELFARE WORK REPORT IS MADE -«■ Roper Unit Submits Excel lent Resume of Work Accomplished -* Roper.—The Roper unit of the Washington County welfase work sub m,its p splendid summary for the month of June, according to a report from Mrs. William G. Bell to W. C. Brewer, superintendent of the relief work in this county. There were 263 1-2 yards of cloth turned over to this group in June for utilization. From this material 143 garments have been made. Thirty two yards of printed goods for shirts and dresses, and 32 yards of plain material for underwear is still left from the first yardage. Scrap from the cuttings are being saved to he used in quilting this winter. This unit has only one sewing ma chine and just two helpers with one person making a record o. four weeks’ work and the second a three weeks record. These facts demonstrate the service of the group. The large amount of work done by the small group leaves no chance for criticism of the workmanship. The skill of the seamstresses was mani fested in the display of the garments on July 15 in the window of F. D. Wilson’s store here. Mrs. Bell and Mr. Brew/er both urge that all who can and will should see the work of these women as shown in the exhibit and take notice of the work that is being done in this coun ty toward clothing those who have no money to purchase the cloth and make it themselves. This report as submitted by one of the unit workers is a fair exhibition of what the workers are doing in helping out the welfare work in Wash ington County and in distributing to the needy garments ready for wear. --® 4-H Club Short Course Postponed Indefinitely By Miss Eugenia Patterson It seems advisable to postpone our State 4-H Short Course scheduled for the first week in August until early in September. The reasons for this decision are as follows: 1. Two-thirds of the counties are now' engaged in the cotton campaign and every one is working under high pressure. 2. The home agents are likewise en gaged in a high-pressure canning pro gram which will run through August. I 3. The recent ruling of the State | School Commission ' preventing the use of school busses is a real handi cap which would prevent some from attending. Watch the paper for a later date. "S ou will be advised as soon as a defi nite date is assured. Surprise Birthday Dinner Skinnersville.—On Sunday July 16, Mrs. Matilda Aumack was given a surprise birthday dinner on the lawn of her home here by Dr. and Mrs. S. A. Saunders and sons, of Aulan der, Fred and Stewart Saunders; Mrs. Clinton Everett and family, Mrs. Lil lie Everett and Mrs. Lessie Barne's two sons of Norfolk. The dinner was served on the lawn picnic style. Mrs. Aumack w'as 60 years of age. A number of gifts were given by her I children and friends. NEW TRIAL IN SUIT AGAINST POWER FIRM -9-— Supreme Court Passes on Case Heard in Superior Court Here -* Described as “their weirdest of them all” was the case of Willis Robert son against the Virginia Electric and Power Company that was remanded back to the Washington County Su perior Court by the North Carolina Supreme Court in the decisions hand ed down last Thursday when a group of matters were settled by the higher court. The charge was brought against the Stone and Webster Engineering Cor poration and their subsidiary that a fire started by the agents of the com pany back in 1930 t6 burn out a yel low jacket's nest spread from the con trol of the power company’s employees and burned an area of forest owned by Mr. Robertson, doing him $3,000 1 damage. Morris Whedbee, whose grandfather was the plaintiff, testified that the Virginia Electric and Power Com pany employees set the fire and that the reason he knew the date and all about it was that he went into the woods to sell whisky to the workmen and was there when they originated the fire that was the cause of the suit. When the case was first heard by the supreme court on an appeal from a judgment of $1,000 against the de fendants, there was no error found, but Justices Adams and Brogden dis sented. The lawyers asked a new hearing on a ground of newly discov ered evidence and produced an affi davit that Whedbee had sworn to a lie when he said that agents of the power company started the fire. This carried Attorney Zeb Vance Norman to Raleigh with a petition to rehear. Hallett S. Ward interviewed Whedbee who said that Elmer R. Jackson here had promised him $100 and had paid him $80 of this amount to testify in the interest of the power i firm. The supreme court could not very well decide who was doing the lying, so Chief Justice Stacey Thursday aft ernoon ordered the matter remanded to the Washington County superior court judge to decide whether Whed bee told the truth the first time. If Whedbee told lies and thereby caused a verdict that might not have other wise been returned, the superior court judge here can on his own motion or der a new trial. '"he important matter to be decid ed in this entire case is whether Whed bee told the truth the first time in superior court here; in the affidavit signed later, or in the depositions that were made before Commissioner J. T. McNair. Whedbee is the principal and probably the only witness in the case, and on his testimony hangs a decision. The supreme court has had no such case before it in a long time, whereby the chief witness had contradicted himself in affidavits and depositions. A number of hearings have been held here in this matter, including deposi tions. -d> Complimentary Letter Relative to Local Boy -«— - A complimentary letter was received Jront Francis S. Davenport, captain of infantry reserve, of company 411, Civilian Conservation Camp at Smoke mont, N. C, by W. C. Brewer, wel fare superintendent of Washington County relative to the discharge of Frank O. Bateman. “At the request of Mrs. Pauline Bateman, we are giving Frank O. ] Bateman his discharge on July 8. His mother stated in her letter that her son had employment at his home town "Mr. Brewer, Frank O. Bateman is a mighty fine boy and we hate to see him leave our camp, and we hope that he will do well in his new work.’’ ■-• Mrs. Tarkenton Hostess Pleasant Grove.—The Pleasant Grove Woman’s Club met at the home of Mrs. J.

(Mack) Brown on a charge of assault, assault with a dealy weapon, and trespass brought against him by Roland Gay lord as the result of an affray a cou ple of weeks ago. Mr. Gaylord accused Mr. Brown of coming to the filling station, located on his premises, and striking him and pulling a gun on him after having twice been advised never to come on his property again. Mr. Brown was riding with a couple of negroes when they stopped at the station. Evidence brought out at the trial implied that there had been enmity between the brothers-in-law for a long while. Mr. Brown alleged that Mr. Gaylord and a companion named Biggs were both drunk at the time, and the negroes riding with Mr Brown supported his testimony. The bad blood between the two had led to combat on two other cccasins, it was said. Brown married Gaylord’s sister. Interesting Program Presented At Test Farm Picnic Thursday UPWARD TREND IN BUSINESS OF HANDLE PLANT A. F. Fifield, Recently Made Head of Concern, Issues Statement -- Sales have shown a decided upward trend in the past 90 days, and plant operators are continuing on improved schedules, it was announced today by A. F. Fifield, newly elected president of the American Fork and Hoe Com pany, through C. L. Groves, resident manager of the National Handle Com ' Pany. The local plant, which is operated by the American Fork and Hoe Com pany, is now working on a schedule | of 58 hours, a week, and with the I coming of the new industrial code 1 may be increased to two shifts mak ! ing it, so that more men can be em ployed. Mr. Groves explained that the local unit was paying no less than 15 cents! an hour, or $1.50 a day, to any laborer on their pay roll, and that among the | 41 men they work, some are drawing ; the top of the schedule for workmen ■ of 29 cents an hour, which is $.290 a day for 10 hours, and that this is a fair wage at present. They have no wood crew, as their ! logging is done by contract or other- ' wise. However, Mr. Groves is of the | opinion that there will be an increase ^ of somewhere about 10 cents an hour later. He is not prepared pt the present to disclose any results that the 1 new industrial code would necessitate \ here in the lumber business. This plant was the last to reduce ! wages at the popular demand in the months past and they will possibly be the last to increase them for this reason, and also the fact that they have not sold any of their merchandise with the prospect of increased wages included in the price. Mr. Fifield, who is now president, has been associated with the company for years in charge of the railway ap pliance division. He was born in Lowell, Mas.., and is 57 years of age.
