Monday afternoon, at Eva Mur

argument over some "bootleg whis

Eva was shot with one buck shot
between the eyes. He was not ser
lously injurled by the blast with
most of the load missing him.
Monday
College Students
seek deferment as a student
can take the test only once.
"At the present time, Norlh Caro
lina local boards reach men for in
duction at about a"e 23," Sinilh
said. "Students generally can fin
ish their undergraduate studies at
that age. But those hoping to con
tinue studies in graduate school, for
example, will need a deferment to
do so. Also heavier draft calls wou
ld lower the age at which local
boards reach men for induction,
and deferments might be necessary
to finish undergraduate work."
In either case, the Chairman poin
ted, out a test score in the HI will
give the local board an additional
piece of important information to

corn at $1.29 per bushel. This is
iseven cents above the mid-west
price support on corn. The reason
for the higher price support in Nor
th Carolina is the fact that North
Carolina is a corn deficit producing
State, which means the State uses
more corn than it produces.
However, grain is now being ship
ped into Eastern North Carolina
from the mid-west and being sold
to farmers for $1.32 per bushel.

in doubt about their status as cot
ton farmers or farmers with a cot
ton allotment who do not wish to
plant it, should contact the County
ASCS office before March 23.
Under the leasing program for
cotton, the County and the farmer
loses the cotton allotment if it is
not planted. However, farmers who
do have cotton allotments and wish
to not plant it can help protect the
County's possible income from cot
ton production by leasing it.
