MONEY Physicians as a rule make good money in North Caro lina, despite the fact that many of you readers owe your family doctor a small bill right now. In 1941, for instance, 2,854 physicians in this state made a total of $12,695, 000. But 8,163 teachers, principals and superintendents had total in comes of only $10,422,000. And 1,285 lawyers in 1941 reported total incomes of $5,246,000. However, the average North Carolina physician has spent around 10 years and $12,000 preparing himself for his vocation as com pared with four years and $3,000 for the teacher and five years and $4,000 for the attorney. So there you are. R. HUNT PARKER Governor Broughton has assigned Judge R. Hunt Parker, of Roanoke Rapids, to preside over the special term of court to be held in Wilkes county on September 13 at which time Highway Patrolman W. B. Lentz and Guy Scott, of the SBI, will be tried for the alleged larceny of 91 cases of whiskey taken in a raid on June 1. R. Hunt Parker will be remem bered well by those who attend the trial. He is as lank and lean as a greyhound. His face is equipped with an aquiline nose, steel blue eyes, a somewhat Koosevelt chin, and a firm, now-that's-that mouth. The man is as alert as a well bred stallion. There will be no fool ishness at the trial and all jurors, CHAUFFEUR Victor AUlridge, of Stanley County, is the State Patrolman who eases Governor Broughton around in that big Num ber One. He likes the job, too and admits, "I never lack for en tertainment when I am out on a trip with the governor, for he can really tell good jokes." But AUlridge overlooks one point of humor which occurs quite fre quently out on these trips when Governor Broughton requests him in cadent tones to reduce the speed of the vehicle just a whit so that he can fire up the big, black pipe which he puffs on now and then. NOTES -J. C. Horton went to police headquarters in Raleigh last week to see about getting a friend out of jail; observant officers found a three-year-old warrant against Horton for hit-and-run driving and now he is in worse trouble than his friend An amusement com pany virtually had the State Fair grounds rented for a big one-week show in October, but Governor Broughton said no, that it would let down the bars for other shows and a great deal of useless driving A man here in Raleigh wagered even money last week that Dr. Ralph McDonald will never actually file as a candidate for governor Mrs. Gertrude Clinton, one of the smart est women in North Carolina, has finally tendered her resignation as director of the U. S. Employment Service and assistant director of the War Manpower Commission for this state; reason; Dr. J. S. Dorton, WMC head, had been given virtually all of Mrs. Clinton's au thority.
