Nothing New Found
I Today in Bank Case
Things were pretty quiet on
the CarrborO bank robbery front
this morning. The FBI was still
continuing its investigation of
the ease, but local officers said
they didn’t know of any new
leads having been uncovered.
1 Main clues in the $9,085 stick
up are the detailed descriptions
of the two given by Bank Man
ager Hubert Neville and his as
sistant, Mrs. Juanita Sturdivant.
There have been plenty of good
runflors to go on, meanwhile, even 1
without any concrete evidence.
It’s understood the investigators
i are running down every possible
scrap of evidence and public
confidence is high that the pair
t . who staged the robbery last
Wednesday w$ be caught, .
There^were sevtfral tips that
the getaway car wa& seen in the
Orange Church community, and
also in Burlington. But these
leads apparently haven’t led the
officers any closer to their
VatiSfij.

MEADOW WATERWAYS PREVENT THIS DAMAGE
'Ladino Clover & Orchard Grass'
Erosion Conscious Farmers
Say Let Nature Take Course
Eighteenth in a series on the
extent of erosion damage to the
county and the land use and
practices fitted to the capabili
ties of the land by which Or
ahge County farm families and
landowners are checking it.)
When the rain falls too- hard
(pr the ground to soak it in, or
when the ground is too full to
take more water, how does the
surplus get down to the wooded
hollows and streams?
[ - Down hill it goes, seeking its
own level by the shortest path.
Rather than trying to oppose
such natural forces, many Or
ange County farmers are putting
them to work oh their farms.
Draws, and . low places in the
fields are natural pathways for
.runoff water escaping from the
I field, or from the farm.
‘Right down that draw is
where nature means for the wa
ter to go,” one farmer remark
ed. ‘‘I worked on that field for
years before I learned to let
nature take its course. Now it’s
seeded to ladino, clover and or
! chard grass, and when the rains
come I just sit back and enjoy
j- them. And, you know, I make
more off that land now than
when I was trying to cultivate
it.”
Many fields cannot be ter
raced very satisfactorily until
a meadow outlet is established
to take care of the runoff water.
If you are involved in a con
stant fight with nature to keep
runoff water out of a draw in
I Vour field, perhaps you need to
I change sides. By simply seed
ing the low place with clover
and- grass and letting nature
have her way, you may gain a

Often the field can be ar

be paired and worked together
merely by lifting the plow or
cultivator While crossing the

Duke Professor w. T. Laprade,
chairman of the American Associ
ation of University Professors Com
mittee on Tenure that sided with
the Christopher J. Thomases in
their case against Catawba College,
refused this weekend on the
grounds of “committee policy” to
give out,any advance information
on his group’s findings.
He said he didn’t know when
his committee’s findings would be
published in the AAUP quarterly
bulletin and added, quite, finally,
“What I’m telling you is that we
don’t give out any information.”
It’s the job of this committee to
investigate violations of academic
tenure in higher education and
publish its findings. Public ‘ cen
sure, .the extent of the Associa
tion’s authority, is considered a
weighty step in higher education
circles.
The Thomases, now residing
here, are preparing to sue Catawba
for what" they term a “tortuous,
malicious, and fraudulent” dis
charge. The two music teachers
