M*. 44111 iWMf t mHh -W 4m,.r, Planning And Health Orai Mrs. Riggsbee: I have recently read an article of yours in which you talk about abortion. Through my recent experience with abortion I can say that the descriptive information is true, but I would like to add a few words of my own. It is very important for women who are considering abortion to have good counseling and an understanding doctor. I was very lucky because I had the best doctor around and also had loving and understanding parents by my side, both of which helped very much. I can't imagine going through an experience of that tort done. The most helpful part to me, I think, was that after much soul ? searching and hard thinking on my own, I was able to talk over the pressures and problems I had with my doctor and his trained stalT. My abortion was done only after discussions with these professionals and my parents, and they were all a great comfort to me. Having an abortion is not an easy decision to make, and I am truly grateful that I had such fine help in making what I can definitely see now, was the right decision. I thank God because 1 am a very lucky woman in many ways. 1 hope you will print this letter. Maybe it will help someone else. "Starting over" Dear Starting Over: Thank you lor writing. Vou are absolutely right about the need for abortion counseling. The decision to have an abortion is not an easy one. Professional counseling can help the woman and the man explore their own feelings and their own situation in relation to whatever course of action is taken. Now that the* Supreme Court has declared abortion a decision between the woman and her doctor, more and more abortions will take place -- and to the benefit of everyone the illegal abortionist will be put out of business. But just because abortions will be easy to obtain does not mean that that decision will be an easy one for anyone, and certainly no one should consider the availability of an abortion as a reason for not using a good method of birth control. Ix eel lent abortion counseling is available in many places in North Carolina and you are indeed lucky to be able to take advantage of it. Dear Mrs. Riggsbee: I am 37 years old and I have done a pretty good job of keeping my figure except for my stomach. I have one son who is 18 years old. I was ll> when he was bom and the doctor never once told me to exercise. I had my son by Caesarean Section and I wtt wondering whether or not that could have made the stomach muscles less likely to firm up. I would like to know also if exercises would help now. I am a very active person - and never more than 5 pounds over weight. A.B. Dear A.B. The Caesarean Section you had when you were 18 does not have any effect on your stomach muscles now. Doctors tell me that women tend to gain weight in the stomach and hips because of hormones - much like men tend to lose their hair because of changes in hormones. There is nothing you can take to cotrect this tendency. Ixercises may do some good but there are certainly no secret exercises for this particular problem. Sit - ups and waist bends are probably the best. Also, active sports such as horse - back tiding and tennis are particularly good for this kind of problem. IPS FUR COTTON GROWERS ? ;JM JIM CANDLER Fint of a Series Careful Preparation! Pays Off. Here it is, planting time again, and many of you are getting your planters ready so when the field conditions are light you can hit the field-running. A lot of you will be banding a preemergencc herbicide be hind the packer wheel. Here are a few things to check before you hit the field. -Check all your hoses. Make sure they are not old and caking, putting chips of rub ber in your lines, clogging your nozzles. ?Check your nozzles. If they are brass, make sure they aren't worn down and over sized. They could apply more chemical than you de sire. ?Check your pump. If it is old and worn, you won't get the necessary pressure After completing the above steps, be sure to use plenty of water. A good rule to follow is to use 1 gallon of water for every inch of your band. For example, if your band width is 14". shoot for 14 gpa. Another point you'll want to check is the price you're paying for your prcemergence herbi cide. When you use Karmex? diuron weed killer instead of the other leading preemergence her bicide, you'll save enough money to pay for your post sprays. Don't worry about sacri ficing weed and grass control just because Karmex costs less. You'll still get the weed control you need at a lower cost. Finally, check the rate neces sary for your field. The higher the OM content, the more Karmex you'll need. Generally. 4/10 of a lb. on a 14" band does a pretty good job. Get ready now for planting. Check your equipment and check your preemeTgence herbi cide. You'll find Karmex is still your best buy in cotton weed control. Need further information? Contact me?

Away WithSports BY DAVID CARNRIKE KMoeeoec Baseball season has arrived and Hoke County High baseball coach. Howard L. Smith, is looking for his 1972 last place Bucks to rise in league play. The Bucks route to improvement is a simple one according to Smith. "We need better pitching and batting." Coach Smith is hopeful he has a hero in young Gary Conoly. Conoly, who arrived this year at Hoke High, posted a 1.2 I RA in the Senior Boys League at Napus Naval Base. Italy. Rounding out his possible pitching staff are Tyrone Tillman. Allan Thomas. Charles Striven, and utility-man. John Wallace. Smith has enthusiasm about the team's batting, but is depending on defensive playing. It experience means anything, the Bucks should stand somewhat of a chance in league play, l ive players are returnees to the team. They are Bruce Hurst, catcher. Joe Corthren, first base. Donald Plummer, third base; Vanr^ Penned, shortstop, and James McNeill, centerfield. Defeated in Opening Game Pinecrest collected 8 hits and 12 runs to defeat the Bucks in their opening game played at Pinecrest last I riday. Gary Conoly started for Hoke and pitched three innings, giving up 12 runs and 6 hits. Allan Thomas relieved Conoly and pitched 3 innings giving up i i-t if c Batting for Hoke High looked good. They scored 6 runs with 6 hits. Penned and Conoly collected the only extra base hits for the Bucks, both hits were doubles. Carolina 500 Racing fans will again have the opportunity to see their favorite hero during the Carolina 500 Sunday at North Carolina Speedway in Rockingham. David Pearson. Cale Yarborough. Bobby Allison, Buddy Baker and Richard Petty are rated early favorites to win the pole position when qualifying begins today. Petty won the Daytona 500 and the Richmond 500 this year.
