I OVJ u * Hyder And Eld ridge Meet In Match Here On Friday, June 15 2 Amateur Champ* To Settle Dispute For Supremacy Two Amateurs Who Divided Victor ies In Two Tournaments Meet In Rubber Match. On Friday night. June 15. local boxing fans will have an opportun ity to see what so many ol them have been clamoring for—an eight round match between "Fighting Bob” Hyder and the Gastonia lightweight, Everett Eldridge. The battle royal will be staged at the Company K armory. The participahts will meet in an effort to settle southern supremacy for amateur lightweights. The two previous matches between the two fighters resulted In each gaining a decision, Eldridge winning the Golden Gloves event, and Hyder taking the Atlantic Seaboard championship. Next Friday's bout will be the rubber match .and both boys will doubtlessly put forth every effort to carry off what the promoters are advertising as the south’s lightweight laurels. Three other fast bouts will be carded this week end to run off as preliminaries to the headliner. Ef forts are being put forth to secure some Charlotte boxer to take on Cyclone Cook In the semi-final. The complete card will be announced In Monday’s issue of The Star. The fight should be the best stag ed here in years, and will draw fans not only from this section, but from entire western North Carolina, as both fighters are well known through their participation in the Golden Glows tournament and the Atlantic Seaboard AAA champion ship tournament. Hyder won out in the lightweight division In the lat ter tournament held in Charlotte but was defeated in his first match In St. Louis.. Lattimore Bantams Nose Out ’Kittens Stockton's double nettel the Lat timore Bantams a 4 to 1 victory over the Moores boro Wildkittens at Mooresboro this week. Playing at 9:30 Monday morning on a wet field, the Bantams and Wildkittens gave the scattered fans a thrill for seven innings. Until Stockton’s line drive to left, the affair was a hurling duel between "Tater” Blanton and "Ironhead' Greene. * Stockton's double was the only deserved hit off the promising young twirler.’ The Bantams will play the Shelby Red Sox at Lattimore Saturday aft ernoon at 2:30 o’clock. Shelby White Sox Play Statesville The Shelby White Sox, colored baseball team, will play of fa tie v^th Statesville at the local park Monday afternoon. The two teams clashed last Monday, and the locals won 5-2. Statesville took the second conflict yesterday 8-1. Kirkley and Rogers will serve as the batteries for the local aggregation. Still Talking About Cherokee Highway The county commissioners of Cherokee county seem to have in mitfd the unfinished link of N. C. state highway No. 18 but are un able to get action from the road supervisor in Cherokee and the South Carolina highway commis sioners: Says The Gaffney Ledger of this week . ‘ Some members of the commis sion urged Supervisor E. J. Clark to make* arrangements for begin ning work on the Shelby highway at an early date. ‘‘The commissioners adopted a resolution some two or three months ago promising to begin this 1 project in the early summer. 1 "Mr. Clary told the commission- 1 «rs he ha* been waiting for the 1 state highway department to stake 1 proposed route for grading be- 1 lore starting the work.” No Price Fixing NR A officially and definitely turned itf- back on price-rising in outlining a n*a policy that will re quire the revision of scores of codes to permit freer competition. The new declaration was a product of months of economic study, which was affected indirectly by activities of groups such as the Darro* board. Pierce I*'Vet Head j Gen. Rice A.

These two fighters have met twice before, in the Golden Gloves tournament and in the Southeastern Seaboard AAA meet Ih Charlotte, and each has one victory to his credit. The match next Friday night will be one of the best ever put on here. 4 League Gaines Set For Tomorrow Mooreaborn Leading Loop Of Tex tile And Semi-Pro Teams; Four Games Saturday.

It would permit precinct officials to begin counting primary and election votes several hours before the close of the polls. Rouse'is hot pledged to the Idea but is studying it. It did not origi nate with him. He has been told the public, and election officials, candidates and newspaper people In particular would rise up and call him blessed" were he to convince the legislature of its merit. The ballots in last Saturday's primary here were not tabulated until Sunday forenoon. It was 10 a. m. before the vote in one precinct was completely counted. Precinct officials and counters worked all night. Those in charge of the polls in many places In North Caroltna work nil night after every primary. The plan being studied by Rouse is for counters to start work at least four hours before the polls elo e. They would retire with thp ballots cast to that time They oil'd be Av._fn 10 •u.r-v. .• - lntceuary to have two sets o' boxes, or vents in the boxes through which the ballots would be ex traded. „ Local election boards would ha.c power to assign as many counters needed to each precinct. It is held that with this system returns would be known before midnight in the largest precincts. A number of officials here arc said to favor the plan, which was first advanced two years ago but gained uo consideration then. Thousands Aided By Farm Rehabilitation ROCKY MOUNT. June 7.

Losses In Banks Less, Says Neal Vice President Of Wachovia Speaks ToKiwanis Club On Banks And Banking. The loss in banks during the de pression was only five per cent of the total against a decline in stock values of sixty per cent, a decline of fifty per cent in bonds and a de cline of fifty per cent in commodity values, said Will H. Neal, vice presi dent of the Wachovia Bank and Trust Co., of Winston-Salem as he spoke last night before the Kiwanis club in its weekly luncheon. Mr. Neal gave a swift review of j banking in this country and con-1 trasted its 50 different systems witn j the centralized banking systems al i England and Canada. “The very nature of the early settlers who came to this country was such that they opposed upity and control, hence our system grew into individ ual control! rather than feders. control,” said he. Banks grew to be come what their customers demand ed, but there is a strong tendency | now toward safety and soundness, knit Into a strong national system. Mr. Neal predicted that in the fu ture the men who enter the bank ing business will be trained and ex perienced men, just as those are who enter the professions of law and medicine.

J R CLINE. Sheriff. I Nominees ^pp- e<’ To The Sales Tax, Dunnagar. Writes t kely That Democratic Major: Mill t ome JC> Raleigh Bent On Repealing Measure. RALEIGH. June 5. -Now that the lirst primary is over and most of the scats for the general assem bly are settled, barring any that the Republicans may get and a few re quiring a second primary, the claim will be made that the majority of the nominees are against the sales tax, and probably truthfully, just as the same thing may be said of the 1931 and the 1333 general as semblies. It is entirely probable, more than likely, in fact, that the majority oi the Democratic nominees for the legislature have voiced the;r oppo sition to continuing the sales lax and Wil come to Raleigh next Janu ary bent upon its repeal. The same was true of the 1931 legislature which was able finally and by a bale margin to prevent Its enact ment in the five months of travail. The 1933 body was against the sales tax and registered it almost as long, but finally came to it as a last and final resort to balance the budget and provide the eight months school. Unbiased observers apparently see a repetition of the action last year, but probably without the length and strenuousness of the fight then waged. Before a long time after convention, the legisla tors will probably realize that the sales tax will have to be continued still as an emergency measure through the next biennium. After that, If business gets back to nor mal and income, franchise, inheri tance and license taxes begin to ir crease, then it is not foreign at a!r to think of repeal of the sales tax ELIJAH PARKER DIES IN RUTHERFORD COUNTY RUTHERFORDTON.
