FRIDAY, DECEMBER 3. 1948
Bowls And Bowls
The Paper Bowl at Canton is scheduled to
present to thousands of football fans of this
area the first game of what is expected to be
come a big annual sportint; event in Western
North Carolina.
From all accounts and records, the Way
nesville and Marion teams are about evenly
matched and should give the fans a little
bit of everything on the football menu.
Historians a thousand years from now, un
less the atomic bomb intervenes, will prob
ably refer to the period from Thanksgiving
to New Years as the "Bowl Season."
Sports promotors have marie a national
thing of staging the bowl games in all paits
of the country.
There is almost as much interest and ex
citement as what bowl will get what teams,
as there is during the season of what teams
will win.
Last Saturday there was much more inter
est shown in what bowl Carolina would play,
anfi their opponents, than in the score of the
gartie then in progress. Close followers of
the game can pretty well predict with a high
degree of accuracy the outcome of most
garries, but as yet, the bowl officials maintain
secrecy that adds to the excitement of the
sport.
America is sports-minded, and records
show that interest is increasing instead of
getting less.
A Big Success
The second annual Tobacco Harvest Festi
val staged here last week was a success.
There was enough pageritra showman
ship to provide a variety entertainment,
and enough down-to-earth i educational fea
tures to make it worth while. '
The festival did not just .happen it took
many hours of careful planning and hard
worK. wnicn many people lust taxe ior i
granted. i
After two years now, there are many things
that the sponsors have leartjed from actual
experience. 'C$&f i,.
The parade was far better: than most peo
ple expected, but the rain iustbout ruined
that pretty, and expensive' part' of the festi
val. In 1947 the day the puadewas held was
damp, and bitter cold. This , time of the
year it is hard to get a perfect day for a
parade.
The indoor- events drew better than last
year. In fact, had it not been for the rain,
the armory would not have held the crowd
wanting to attend.
The 1949 committee might well consider
having each community enter a candidate
lor the queen, with several attendants. This
idea comes after seeing the interest each
community took in the festival this year.
Perhaps this plan could replace the parade,
and attract even more people.
There are ten months yet, before plans will
be started for the next festival. In the mean
time, all can look back on the last one as a
success, as eyes turn towards the third next
fall.

Looking Back Over The Years
15 YEARS AGO
Sheffield is found guilty of first
degree murder.
Btirley Comes Through
The burley tobacco market opened satis
factorily and the average was up to pre-seas-on
predictions, of $52 to $54 per hundred
average.
Reliable estimates show that Haywood has
about two million pounds, or about a million
dollar crop this year.
Next to beef cattle, burlev is Haywood's
largest cash farm crop.
The growers of the county have made great
strides in the past few years, and as was
pointed out by an expert recently, the farm
ers have learned the importance of grading
and how to prepare their crop for market.
When one gets to handling tobacco that
brings an average of over S50 per hundred,
he can afford to take time to grade and prop
erly prepare it for market.
An American Story'
It seems to us that it's of more than busi
ness or commercial interest when the news
comes that the American automotive indus
try has produced the 100 millionth motor
vehicle.
Among all the miraculous inventions of the
past three-quarters of a century within the
life of many living persons none has affected
the people of this nation so deeply as has the
automobile. Our way of life simply could
not exist without motor vehicles. The auto
has influenced education, religion, morals,
sports and practically every field of human
endeavor.
Indeed, we sometimes find ourselves dating
events in the past by the automobile we own
ed at that time. If you mention the year
1933, some folks are likely to think of the rise
of Hitler or the inauguration of Franklin D.
Roosevelt. Not us. To us 1933 is the year
we traded a 1928 Model A roadster for a 1932
Model A convertible coupe, .We're suspicious
enough to think that cars have meant and do
mean as much in the lives of many other per
sons. Like the words of old songs, the phrases
"self-starter", disc wheels', balloon tires",
"four-wheel brakes", come back to us trailing
a stream of memories of the years when these
subjects were the latest thing the matter for
heated conversations and wondering inspec
tions of the newest model cars.
America's production genius is what pro
duced 100 million motor vehicles, of course.
That alone is an amazing story regardless
of how deeply the automobile is bound up in
the inner and outer daily lives of the Ameri
can people. Sanford Herald.

Uncle Sam Learns
Uncle Sam has decided to call just half as
many men by the draft system in January as
he first intended. The reason is given as
limited funds.
Uncle Sam is now getting down in the same
level with a lot of us doing on half of what
we started out to get.
What is your answer to the time
worn question of childhood, "Is
therr a Santa Claus?"
Mrs. Dan Watkins": "Yes, there is
i a Santa Claus. 1 like children to
; feel there is a spirit of Santa Claus
always."
Mrs. Henry Davis: "I think there
is a Santa Clans for everyone not
only children. We should all feel
that way about him."
Francis Massie: "Definitely there
is a Santa Claus from the stand
point of children and always
should be."
Mrs. M. R. Williamson: "1 think
it is a lovely idea up to a certain
a;'e. Then I think the commercial
part of Christmas should be re
duced." Herbert Brarcn: "In the hearts
and minds of people yes. there is."
W. A. Bradley: "Sure there is a
Santa Claus. Everybody knows
that."

al Press Club. On his lat visil
he told friends that Mr. Truman,
"a Taurus boy. v.as awful slow and
gradual" but that by being consci
ously diplomatic he could over
come some of his difficulties.
Mr. Wrighter denies he's a "for
tune teller". He says he merely
calculates a persons chances ac
cording to astrology, which he-
looks upon as a science of the high
est order. Last January he observ
ed that Senators Arthur Vanden
berg and Harold Stassen and Gov.
Dewey were all under the sicn of
Aries and said that of the three Mr.
Stassen had the best prospects.
Other observations: Gov. Dewey
has good ideas but is attended by
difficulties of his own making.
Speaker Joe Martin enjoys the behind-the-scenes
roles more than
taking the spotlight for himself.
Gen. MacArthur's star is declining,
his power diminishing.

served as secretary of the board ot
managers of the Pennsylvania
Grand Opera Company for two
years, later was secretary of the
board of the Philadelphia Civic
Opera Company.
At 14 he was told by Evangeline
Adams, a famous astrologer, that
he was fitted for the world of busi
ness, but all through college and
law school he analyzed charts to
prove she was wrong. In 1936 a
back injury compelled him to take
a rest. He went to California, where
in his long leisure hours he worked
out his own horoscope. He was so
impressed with the job he did on
himself that he went into the busi
ness professionally.
