Let Davidson re ceive the kick-off and run it back, •niey have shown an ur/;anny abil ity all year to receive and return kick-offs. Send in Carolina team to advance the ball in midfieldu Let Slusser run the ball downfield in several plays with ^the Carolina in- terfereivce clicking as it doc.'s in mid- field. Scoring territory is entered. Inject the Duke team and let their ability to score when the chance is found, put the ball across. Let them make the point too. Now the oppon ents are clicking. Put the Wake Forest defense into the game. They hold, the opponents must punt. The Duke team runs on the field and the punt is blocked. Suppose the other team scores. Substitute the State team, which has .^hown good ability to brace and stave off the extra point.. And for administration let ■Monk YouViger give out the pre game publicity. Let Bob Warren ook after the injured backs and Chuck Colins give “B. a’s” to the linesmen, let Dehart brace the team when they’re failing and play the game on Pat Miller’s field. Let Will Rogers cover the game, Cecil Bell announce it and Raeford fans pre dict the outcome. What could be more perfect? NOW that the football season is over, we’ll have to go back to talking hard times all the time, In stead of just part of the time. The season was a good one with suffi cient i;iix-ups and baUping / contra dictions in scores to furnish even the slow tempered with material for ar gument. Nothing is .’so annoying to the average fan as to have a team win a clear cut title with no chance of some resourceful fan harking back that So-and-So beat this college and the latter in turn frocked this oth- When that occurs, the football er season is over but the present sea son will probably still be raging while people -are ferreting out Christ mas cards for Uncle this and Aunt that. PINE STRAW sympathizes with Mr. Lowrance, well-liked superinten dent of the Raeford school, and wishes him, for his many freinds a quick recovery from his painful accident. ♦ » ♦ LAST FRIDAY’S basketball game in the Armory with Fayetteville "Y” was not only very creditable, con sidering the newness of the game to Raeford, but ^rks a new-era in winter sports for the community.

Raeford's basket ball was not impresJsive in those days, although it might have been, had an indoor court been available. Many worthy men ran 'quiverin.g over the crusty ground ai^d submitted cold toes to a brutal stompin.g, in the days when Basketball didn’t have a chan'ce here. The sport should, re ceive noteworthy impetus . from th° new and ample facilities which the Armory-Gymnasium offers. SOME excitement was manifested by the people of Raeford over the news that Armour and Company were to build a new packing house at Laurinburg. Visions ^of a return to prosperity, similar to that recorded in the territory around Moultrie, Georgia, through raising of ^ttl© afid swine for slaughter, were uppermost in many minds. Now comes the CATS. Archibald Rutledge, the Southern nature-lover and writer, tells of a famous cat, w.hose exile was committed to him. He was go ing that day a long tortuonfe road through a somber, swamp. Arriving at a; point where the .fewamp was thickest he plunged into the forest and in the thick growth let the cat out of the bag. Rutledge then drove on five miles to hi? work and on re turning to the town that night found the cat he had “lost” sitting on the steps of the house whence he had taken him. It is remarkable that the cat riding in utter darkne^ seven and a half miles should have picked unerringly the right way home. I can never get over the impression when I see the angry glare of the eyes of a cat as the lights of a car find* him on the side of the road at night, that there is a cat who has been purposely lost, going back to the house of his loser, there to tor ture him -for the rest of his days. BIRDS. The ability of birds to fly directly to a certain place over immense distances, is well known t'o every observer of nature. .. In Ar kansas a man who was interested in tBe problem Of whether the same fliicks and geese returned yearly tc bis little rice pond, wher3 he and his friends enjoyed shooting, re solved to make an experiment. One raw, grey day in December he and a companion succeeded in catching a dut'k alaive and tying a- metal tag around his foot. The duck was then released and soared into the air. A year passed and the men had not forgotten;. Walking around the ..pond in the late afternoon some ducks zoomed overhead and the quick bark of the guns brought down two. On the leg of one was- the metal tag. Had this duck hit by chance upon this same 'pond a yi^r later? Proba by not. It is another sign of the in fallible intuition of birds in flying, or so the tale goes.

With an old gentlemen, who from his very boy hood has been a close observer of animals, we drifted in to talk about I I Order Your 11 Coal Now! O n o DON’T WAIT UNTIL A FREEZE ^CHICKENS. The talk went to chickens with some misgivings. Have chickens any striking intuitions? Postitively came the answer from the close observer; “An old hen comes off with her brood of chickens the day after they are hatched. It is a sparkling sunny day and the little chicks run about looking for bright things to eat. Way up yonder in the sky the hen sees a hawk and immediately gives a warning cluck. Those biddies whether there are five or fourteen will every one flatten out on the ground and remain still as death until a signal is given that the danger Is past. They have nev er seen a hawk and don’t know what it is, but this strange warning note from the throat of their mother they do in some wonderful way under stood.
