Negro Grid

Here Friday
Two undefeated Negro football
teams will clash /here Friday night
for the Class AA, eastern division,
football championship.
Winner of the game, pitting Lin
coln of Chapel Hill and Clinton High
School, will advance to the .state
championship final against the win
ner of a western division playoff.
Lincoln, undefeated in eight games
this season and not beaten in 29
straight games, will host a Clinton
club which has only one tie on its
1958 record.
Clinton advanced to Friday’s big
and clash by knocking off Winfall High
School last Friday, 19-6 at Clinton.
They have won nine games.
The game, starting at 8 p.m., will
be at Lion’s Park in Carrboro.
ABC Store Opposition Forming
Organized opposition to the base-
entrance of ABC stores into
Orange County seems to jre
forming.
“Everyone who is* opposed”
to the sale of Alcoholic bever
ages in the county has been in
vited to attend a “citizen’s meet
ing” Friday.
According to Carolyn F. Noell, a
member of the group, the meeting
ment of the University Baptist
Church.
Plans will be mapped at that time
for activities to fight the ABC
stores.
The Friday meeting was pre
ceded last week by another meet
ing held by opponents of the ABC
establishment. According to offi
cials, the “major achievement”
of the first meeting was to “de
vise a system of contacting some
persons in each community in the
Chapel Hill-Hillsboro area.”
It was noted that while contacts
are being - made primarily through
churches, the new “dry” organi
zation is not church-sponsored.
“Rather,” according to a spokes
man, “we are a group of citizens
interested in the issue.”
The Orange County Board of Com
missioners in September 'set Feb. 3
for holding of an A. B. C. election
in the county, after first setting
P'eb. 7. According to the commission
ers, the date was changed so that
it might be held prior to convening,
on Feb. 4, of the State Legislature.
No vote on the Establishment of
ABC stores has been held in the
county since the mid 1930's, follow
ing the adoption of the North Car
olina local option law.
