Here TomoDow
Coach Cap Clark’s imdefeated Hoke
county high school baseball temp
will take toe field tomofow after
noon against toe strongest team they
will have to meet in toe conference
this season, Rockingham,
The Hoke coimty boys have a very
impressive record to date, being un
defeated in five starts, four of them
against conference foes. In two
games with Hamlet toe local boys
won One and toe second was called
because of darkness with the score
tied at 6-all. In conference compe
tition toe tie game coimts as a game
and will not have to be played over.
Other conference V victories are over
Sanford and Siler City and the Hoke
boys have also defeated Red Springs
high school.
The Rockingham hi^ team will
also start tomorrow’s game unde
feated, but with oqly two conference
games played to date. Teams they
have defeated are Siler City and
Sanford.
A win for Cpach (Tlarii’s boys here
tomorrow afternoon Would put them
in the position where a victory in
toe return game with Rockingham
would clinch toe conference title and
where a loss in toe return game
would leave toe two teams tied for
the flag.
Although there-were he candidates

In^rmation of
IiOportaiice To Fiuniers
Of Hoke County
It has been brought to our atten
tion by A. S. Knowles, county a^nt,
that toe Emergency (3rop and Feed
Loan office-of toe Farm Credit Ad
ministration is endeavoring in every
way possible to take care of the fi
nancial needs of toe farmers in thia
county for toe purpose of producing
their crops iji all cases where the
farmer is unable to secure financial
assistance from other sources in
cluding the Production Credit Assoc
iation.
The sole object of the government
in making these loans available is
to render a service to such farmers
who might need financial assistance
but for certain reasons are unable to
procure this assistance through local
production credit association, and yet
without assistance would be imable to
adequately carry on their farming
operations.
These loans are in no sense a relief
measure, but are made where there
is a Reasonable expectation toit the
crops, to be planted will be sufficient
to repay the loan and take care of
the needs of toe borrower and his
family. ^ These loans are secured by
a first lien on toe crops to be planted.
Applications for these loans are be-
ihg accepted by Mrs. Jewel KIoum,
at Raeford, N. C., in the court house
Monday and Thursday of each week.
