Highs Win First Championship Game; Play Here Again Friday < CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE ) brace himself, and given flawless support by his teammates he pull ed out of all holes except In the fourth frame when the upper county lads banged out enough hits to cross the plate twice. Dangerous Hitting. It was far from being the one sided game the score Indicates. Belwood had a dangerous hitting array and threatened to score con stantly from the first frame until the last. The fact that Farris and Hamrick caught several runners off bases coupled with Mayhew's flashy fielding was the real difference be tween the two county outfits. As it was W. Devine, fast little Belwood shortstop, contributed the fielding feature of the game by dashing In on a hot. grounder, scooping It up and tossing It to first like a bullet ns he was halfway on a fall to the ground. It was the niftiest bit on infield work seen here since Cline Owens Lee snatch ed 'em dp on all sides of him last year. Another Devine—B. Devine, the Belwood first sacker—demon strated the fact that he could smash a baseball ns well as the other Devine could field. He secured two hits, one a screaming double to the tin can which should have been stretched into a three-bagger. Propst, Belwood left-fielder, afco contributed two nice catches. Shelby Features. Harrelson led the slugging for Shelby with a double and two tri ples, while Capt. Farris, McSwaln and Smith secured two hits each, but It was Smith who started the fireworks with a screaming single In the first frame, scoring two run ners after two men were out. May hew, at short, played the best game since he has been In the line-up scooping up hot ground drives and dashing back Into the outfield to spear pop-ups in a style bringing memories of the 1929 Infield. Mc Swaln, steady second-sacker, also made a nice catch of a fly in short rightfield. Willis and Cook, the two Bel wood hurlers, both exhibited a snappy fast ball, but for them, un fortunately, it was too ba^ that fast balls are easier, so it seems this year, for the Morris outfit tc hit than are hooks. Title hopes are getting high In Shelby again. Should Shelby win again Friday only two games will be between them and another west ern title, and only three victories for the state crown.

Republicans To Name Candidates After the Primary (CONTINUED PROM PAGE ONE) tic of winning a county office this year than in bygone years. By strengthening the party generally, it is believed, they plan to build up better support for Congressman Chas. A. Jonas. The Llncolnlon man, in fact, is the big hope of the Republicans not bnly of this county but of the entire section roundabout They admit, reluctantly, of course, that they have little hope of hold ing the tenth congressional district, even with former chairman Brown low Jackson as their congressional candidate. The same admission Is made about holding certain county offices won in Gaston and other nearby counties. “Hoove/ prosper ity” has proven too much of a boom erang to Republican dreams of overthrowing the State. So It Is that Cleveland Republicans togeth er with all other Republicans in Piedmont and Western Carolina are uniting with the big hope of keen ing in the public eye by sending Congressman Jonas back to Wash ington. They are all talking Jonas, and will likely talk Jonas and very little about their county candidates even when the slate is made public. Had Hoover-Jonas prosperity de veloped into the flowing, golden thing it was painted by Messrs. Hoover and Jonas in their cam paigning it would have taken some high-powered Democratic cam paigning to unseat the Llncolnton lawyer. As it is the Republicans of the district are girding themselves for a battle royal, taking the chance of returning their congressman at the risk of losing their other scat tered gains in the district. Anyway, the publication of the Republican county ticket after June will give a bit of activity to the cus tomary siesta between the primary and the fall election. Dance Scheduled Not Sponsored By School Officials Supt. Smith Says Junior-Senior Dance Is Strictly a Private Affair. Says Supt. B. L. Smith of the city schools: The Shelby high school is not sponsoring a dance. The sponsors of the classes, the principal of the high school, and the superintend* ent wish it distinctly understood that they are not repsonslble for scheduling a social affair for Friday evening which is being advertised under the captain “Junior-Senior dance." The function is being pro moted by private intertest without the knowledge, consent, or assist ance of the school authorities. The school folks say that they do not presume to dictate the social policies of the community and that they are not suggesting any reflec tion upon the affair or its promot ers. They simply feel that a public institution cannot sponsor activi ties that many patrons disapprove. Moreover, they do not want parents to allow their children to partici pate feeling that it is a school func tion and Is being chaperoned by the school teachers.

The School Board is in especial need of the funds due them. Unless the taxes are paid in, the ne cessary funds will have to be borrowed. The interest paid on borrowed money does not benefit the community. On the other hand, it deprives the community of that much service or adds that much to the ta* burden. One way to keep taxes low is to pay l the levy on time. t ■" * Your taxes will have to be paid sometime. Why not pay them now—save the interest and enable the town a"d school to meet their obligations? Yours sincerely, S. A.
