Jaycees Set Wrestling
For February 3 Here
Rip and Chuck, the one end
only original Scufflin Hill
billies, come to town Friday,
Feb. 3 to head a big all-sur
wrestling card in the Old Rock
Gym.
Accompanying Rip and
uck will be their colorful
Chuck
manager. Cousin Alfred.
They will go against the Blue
Infernos, a pair of masked
men who rate with the best in
wrestling.
The sponsoring Jaycees are
expecting a large turnout and
popular prices will again be
charged, with ringside seats
costing $1.50, general ad
mission $L. and children under
12 years of age being a (knitted
for 50 cents.
Co-featured is a dual match
which brings together two of
the very best are Cheif White
Eagle and Rocket Monroe.
White Eagle is a big Ind
ian from Oklahoma who has
picked up a great following
since moving into southern
rings. The redman is quite
talented and it will take a big,
all-out effort by Monroe to
subdue him.
Monroe, incidentally, is
considered one of the rough
est men in the game. He has
appeared several times
in this part of the country and
fans who have seen him, either
in person or on TV, well know
what to expect when the batt
ler enters the ring.
The first match will start
at 8:1b p.m.
Nick Galas, Roy Welch and
Harry Thornton are match
makers for the card which is
sanctioned by the National
Wrestling Alliance.

The meeting was called by
the new Commissioner in re

bear hunts. Items discussed
at the meeting included thequ

year in areas* where survey
data indicated this would be in
order.
Also discussed was the
extension of the program and
the possibility of establishing
new herds of deer at locations
where the habitat is suitable

FEED GRAIN SIGN-UP NOW
OPEN
Cherokee County farmers
can again divert their corn
bases in the 1967 feed grain
program.
Feed grain surpluses have
been reduced from 85 million
tons in 1960 to about 43 mill
ion tons now. By October 1967,
supplies are expected to be
down to no more than what is
considered a comfortable res
erve. In order to protect the
reserve, we will need to in
crease the acres of feed grain
produced by about 15 to 18 mil
lion acres.
Farmers can sign to parti
cipate in the 1967 program th
rough March 17.
Farmers with bases under
25 acres can divert the entire
bases with payment rates
comparable to last year's.
The major change in the 1967
feed grain program is this?
F arms with feed grain bases
over 25 acres cannot receive
any diversion payment, or less
they request temporarly red
uction of the base to 25 a?. res
for one year and plant no feed
grains. They will then receive
diversion payment for div
erting 25 acres.
Last year over 360fariners
in Cherokee County signed up
in the program and received
payments tooling 165,000 do
llars.
Payments will be split ag
ain this year. The farmer will
receive one half the total pay
ment when he signs up and the
other halt later on in the year.
Please contact the ASCS
Office, if you have any ques
tions.
