Judge Moore heard the final arguments, from the lawyers, with J. R. Morgan ap pearing for the Town of Waynes ville and the Library. Judge Moore handed down his decision 111 favor of the county at the May term of court. The Town of Way nesville and Library then appealed to the Supreme Court. The case was argued before the Supreme Court on September 1, by the three lawyers who have handled the suit all the way through. In the case of Warren, sentenced for shooting his son, the Supreme Court granted a new trial because of Superior Court Judge Dan K. Moore's charge to the jury, an Associated Press dispatch from Raleigh said. Warren was given 5 to 7 years for the assault. Warren admitted he shot Hall Warren, but contended it was in self defense. Judge Moore told the jury the law of self defense "ap- : plies equally" in cases of homi cide and assault not resulting in death. The Supreme Court said this was not correct. When a defendant ad mits a killing and claims self de fense, the burden of proof is up on him to justify his action. On the 6ther hand, when a defendant ad mits an assault the burden of proof does not shift to him, al though he pleads self defense, it explained. It said Warren would be given a new trial because Judge Moore's charge raised the "implication" that the burden of proof was upon Warren to justify his conduct in the shooting. Warren was represented by John M. Queen and Frank Fergu son. _ Picnic Planned Saturday By Farm Tour Group A picnic for Haywood residents who have made any of the coun ty's 12 out-of-state farm tours will be held at 6:30 p.m. Saturday at Camp Schaub.

Officers Tell Bethel PTA Juvenile Delinquency Can Be Controlled From Home Two officers talked to the Bethel PTA Tuesday night on juvenile delinquency. The speakers were Chief Orville Noland, Waynesvllle, and Cpl. Pritehard Smith. Cpl. Smith pointed to the need of parents setting the right ex amples for the children, as he said: "Children imitate, very often, what they see their parents doing." "There are too many teen-agers driving that their actions are un aware to the parents," lie said. Ho pointed to three traffic deaths in Haywood, all caused by teen-agers, who were too careless. "Some teen-agers have access to cars without their parents know ing it," he continued as he cited the example of stopping a 13-year old boy near Lake Logan Saturday. The boy was driving, and sai?.' he was the owner of the car. although his parents did not know this fact. The bov was cited to juvenile court for driving without an operator's license. Chief Noland told the gicup of the importance of keeping children in school. Sunday school, and at tending church regularly. "The trouble usually starts in the home, and only in about one case out of every 100 do we have trouble with those teen-agers who attend church and school regular ly. Most of the problems of juve nile delinquency starts right back in the homes." he went on. Mrs. Harrison Henson, president, was in charge of the meeting. 1 Sherrill Jimison,- Mrs. Troy Ford.

The ranger urged: "Let's learn a lesson from the recent California fires and exercise extreme caution at this time. Do not burn oil piles of brush or old fields until after we have had a good rain. Be care ful with matches and tobacco when ! in the woods. A cigarette butt that would normally go out can start a serious fire under present condi tions.
