Correction It was reported in last week's News-Journal that an area automobile accident contained an incorrect name. Linda Faye Gib son, of Raeford, was involved in that crash. We regret the error.

On March t, the Hoke County Sheriff's Department was called and alerted to a stabbing, accord ing to reports. - Upon arrival, deputies found Roscoe Torrence face down in a road.

Sheriffs deputies have a suspect in the case, reports say. On last Thursday, the trailer of Mary Ann Butler was broken into and $1,353.50 in personal property and cash were taken.

Jobs programs offer training By Ed Miller Employers in Hoke County can get labor at reduced initial costs in exchange for training through a program offered by the North Carolina Employment Security Commission (ESC). A recently implemented pro gram called "Youth Tryout Employment" 'will allow employers in the private sector to hire a high school senior, for 20 hours per week, for nothing for the first 250 hours, said Sandra Moss, Raeford ESC Branch Office Manager. The ESC will pay the full salaries, no matter what the hourly rate is, up to 230 hours, she said. At the end of the training period, the employer must hire the worker as a regular employee, Moss added. At minimum wage, $3.35 per hour, an employer can save over $837. Any type of business can use this service as long as it is not state or federally supported, she said. "There is not even that much paperwork involved," said Moss. "In fact, there is no paperwork for the employer," she said. To qualify for the Youth Tryout program, a worker must be a high * school senior who has had SO hours "pre-employment skills training," or vocational educa tion, said Moss."" The ESC will send a number of applicants so employers may inter view and screen in a normal fashion, said Moss. Enviro-ChwirfSo ~ EXTERMINATORS HOUSEHOLD PEST CONTROL 120 W. EDINBOROUGHAVE.
