This is not a criticism of officers, school officials or the public but rather a suggestion which might be considered for future games here. It is almost imposible for any officer to direct proper parking if the public doesn't cooperate. Drivers are too anxious to park anywhere they see space, disregarding proper lining of cars, the pos sibility that they might have to leave due to an emergency, long waits following the game for cars to "untangle," and the possibility that a player might get injured and a quick exit necessary for an am bulance. Friday night, cars were parked at every angle, headed in every direction, making it literally impos sible for a quick exit from the Island. , This is dan gerous and! unnecessary. Double lines of cars, all parked, in the same di rection with adequate space between the double lines, would alleviate this danger and inconvenience. Would it be possible for several officers, or per haps, even students, be on hand by 6:30 o'clock to start proper parking? Once the public gets used to how to park, the problem will be licked. Let's try it! WHAT HAPPENED TO TOMATO PRICES? GUEST EDITORIAL By HARRY G. SILVER County Extension Chairman Madison County farmers and businessmen are a little stunned over the recent rapid decline in the tomato market. On Wednesday,, August 13, vine ripe tomatoes were selling for ?4.00 a 20-pound pack and Monday, August 18, the market price was $1.50. What happened? " Trying to forecast; or to immediately under stand price changes in fresh produce is difficult. The Crop Reporting Board, . SRS, USDA, in their July 8, 1969, forecast release estimated a late sum mer tomato national acreage of 21,900 acres, down; from the 23,080 acres harvested in 1968. The Au gust release of the forecast called for 246,300,000 pounds of tomatoes, down 9 from 1968. These forecasts land good prices for the early market in creased expectations for a record tomato Income with good prices. , s ? v ! . ' .

There 'will be comrressional reAstricanj before the 1972 pri maries and general election. While the Republicans made. latnong bid for governor in 19G8 un der the leaderahip of Jim Gard ner and failed of their goal. they are nevertheless not dis heartened and are planning to make another hard push in 1972. Don't be surprised if Wiliner (Vinegar Bend) Miiell winds np as the GOP candidate, andl he could cause the Democratic candi date plenty of worry. Should redistrictimr Tlace Con gressman Earl Ruth of Salisbury and Mizell of Lexington in the same district, Mizell will run foe governor, leaving the congress race to Ruth provided Ruth is able to win again in his present district in 1970. State Rep. Jim Holshouser.
