The coach added that the 1979 team will consist mainly of sophomores and juniors in the line-up.

(See SHOW, page 6) Jeep Cherokee 4-WHEEL DMVMG FUN FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY VISIT THE HOME Of THE *OM* GIANT MOTOR CORP. EDENT0N482-8421 N. Broad St Ext Earn The Highest Prices For Non Quota Peanuts Gold Kist recently announced a new concept for handling your non-quota peanuts which can work effectively during the next four years under the present peanut legislation. This program offers our members the opportunity to receive the highest price possible for non-quota peanuts without fear of having to deliver quota production to satisfy the contract. Gold Kist has formed a "limited Contract Pool" which carries with it a substantial advance when the non-quota peanuts are delivered, but the important feature is that additional advances will be made as the peanuts are placed in world makets. In this manner, our patrons will continue to receive more money for their non-quota ton of peanuts up to its full market value when the pool is closed on June 30 or before. Hie initial advance, additional ad vances and final pool settlement will all be paid in cash. This program is a good example of how the farmer and Gold Kist can work together to get the most for his crop. Gold Kist has proven its reliability over the years. Since 1957 when Gold Kist entered the peanut business, it has earned over 21 million dollars for Gold Kist patrons. This was in addition to the market price paid at time of delivery. At the present time, our current statements appear favorable for a good patronage refund on the 1977 crop which will add to the above total. We will do everything possible in trying to make the non-quota peanuts equal in value or hopefully exceed the quota peanut value. This can't happen unless you support your cooperative. A cooperative program is only as strong as its active, participating members who have faith in its ability. Gold Kist and its patrons must recognize that we are doing something that should work not only for this year but for additional years to come by giving the farmer a chance to do something for himself. Our initial advance on all non-quota peanuts will be 93 per cent of the quota price which calculates slightly over $390.00. A word of caution. You must come in to your nearest Gold Kist plant or facility to sign your non-quota contracts as soon as possible. The signing of a contract is required by USDA regulations and must be completed by June 14. If you have not signed a contract by that date, all non-quota panuts, when delivered, must go into the CCC pool which will carry and advance of only $250.00. It is important that you act promptly. Also, if in the future we must restrict the tonnage in the "Limited Contract Pod", members who have participated previously will receive first priority. For additional information, contact your nearest Gold Kist representative. We wish for you a good peanut growing season, a good harvest and good returns on your crop this fall. ACT NOW...TIME IS LIMITED! FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CALL: Valhalla N. C. 32 It Edenton Phone 4823426 - ^
