ROBERT C. PLOTT, Army Air Forces, now serving in England, has been awarded the soldier's medal for heroism not involving actual conflict with an armed enemy at an air base in England on March 17, 1944. A B-17 aircraft crashed near the dispersal area where Corporal Plott was per forming guard duty. Quickly locating the wrecked plane, he flashed his light on the smoking wreckage and noticed the navigator in his compartment. Completely disregarding the im minent danger of bombs that might explode momentarily, he rushed to the compartment and with the aid of another enlisted man, removed the navigator to safety. The out standing courage and extraordin ary heroism displayed by Corporal Plott in rescuing this wounded of ficer reflect highest credit upon himself and the armed forces of the United States, according to a news release sent out by the headquar ters of the 3rd Bombardment Pi vision from the office of the com manding general. Corporal Robert C. Plott, 23, (Bobbie), son of Mr. and Mrs. G. C. Tlott, of Waynesville is shown above as he is preparing to don a gas mask during a "gas alert" drill at an Eighth AAF heavy bomber base somewhere in England. Corporal Plott is a member of the ground crew and along with his associates spends long tedious and exacting hours, day and night, maintaining the mechanical per fection that assures the successful bombing of military and industrial targets in Germany and the occu pied countries of Europe. Cpl. Plott, who volunteered in the U. S. Air Corps, was formerly AAA Committee Urges Farmers To Use Limestone The County AAA Committee is urging all farmers who are plan ning to use limestone in 1944 to place orders with the AAA office for the material immediately. At the present time orders have been rceived for 6,230 tons of limestone. Up to the present date 5.270 tons have been delivered to the farms of Haywood county. R. C. Francis, chairman of the county committee, stated that all orders for limestone on hand will be filled by the first of July. The county committee has esti mated that approximately 15,000 tons uf limestone would be used by the farmers of Haywood county in 1944. If this amount is received it will be absolutely necessary that the limestone coming into the coun ty every day through the summer and fall months. Mr. Francis stated that it is much easier for the trucker to place the limestone where the farmer desires it during the dry sum m i-r months. The county com mittee would like to urge that as much limestone as possible be plac ed on pastures at the rate of ap proximately one tone per acre. It has been found from tests that one ton of limestone per acre will greatly increase the grazing capa city for pastures. Better results can he obtained if phosphate can be applied along with the lime stone. Mr. Francis stated that orders for lL'OO tons of phosphate have been placid, and at the present time only 120 tons have been received. However the entire amount has hoi n ordered and twenty cars have been approved. The county com mittee is hopeful of filling all ord ers for phosphate during the late summer and fall months. They r gri t that the delivery of phos phate has been delayed, but the cause of the delay is beyond thiir cont rol. MARRIAGES Kmmeth L. Wilson, of Brevard, to Marvin Grogan, of Canton.
