COLLISION A seven-year old Ohio child suffered a broken collarbone in a rear end chain collision Wednesday night involving three cars on U.S. 401-Bypass. Others escaped with only bruises. H oke ighlights by Btrry ?111$ Well, Easter and spring vaca tions are over and everyone some how managed to drag themselves back to Hoke High for the remain ing six weeks of the school year. The seniors, however, had an extra day off this past Monday and came back on Tuesday. From what I heard, though, many of them needed it to recuperate from Senior weekend at the beach. Everything's back to normal (if you can call this normal!), and all of us are trying to get back to work, even though with spring on the way it's getting very hard! Everyone is in a pretty good mood, now at Hoke High, with the seniors walking around with smiles on their faces, knowing graduation isn't very far off, and the rest anticipating summer vacation. The Hoke High Dance Band performed for the students at Upchurch on April 15, before Easter vacation. Thursday was 'Tacky Day' at Upchurch and from what 1 heard some of the students were very 'tacky' in their make-up and wild looking outfits. The Dance Band performed in the morning at 9 A.M. and in the afternoon at 1 P.M. The Health Careers Club with Mrs. Young, club adviser went to McCain the week before Easter and gave a party for the patients at the sanitonum. Mrs. Young said they really enjoyed giving the party and hoped the patients enjoyed it as much also. The week of April 26 through April 30 has been named 'Bicen tennial Week' in Hoke County. Wednesday, April 28, was set aside for all schools in the county to celebrate and they all celebrated in a variety of ways. At Hoke High it was a free day to watch the various events and maybe even participate. There was a talent show, band concert, and athletic events in the stadium with competition between the homeroom classes. 1 could not obtain the results of the events in time for this week's column, but 1 will get them for next week. It was a fun day for everybody and we all had a great time. Farm Items W. S. Young & Freddie O'Neal County Agricultural Agents North Carolina dairy farmers voting in the dairy referendum on April 6 approved the six cents per hundred weight assessment on Grade A milk. A total of 2.798 votes were east and 67.47 per cent of the votes were in favor of the assessment. The assessment will begin with milk shipped on or after May 1 and run for three years. All Grade A dairymen will be notified. The income generated w ill be used for the promotion and sale of milk products. The University television stations will present a program entitled. "Biltmore, A Castle In The Sky" next month. The schedule is Mav 5 at 7:30 P.M.. May 7 at 3:00 P.M.. and Mav 10 at 8:00 P.M. It is a 30 minute color documentary that is a salute to our nation's Bicentennial. It will be a program worth watching. The season is fast approaching that farmers will be using pesticides at an increased rate. It is most important that all chemicals are handled safely and that they are stored under lock and key. Chil dren sometimes play around the storage area but they should be kept away, if possible. It's a good idea for farmers to notify their doctors as to the types of pesticides they will be working with, so if a mishap occurs they will not lose in time applying an antidote. Make this summer a time when no deaths occur from pesticides use.
