For the first time, the sales

For example, all calves entered
in the sales must be vaccinated
lor blackleg. They must also be
Vaccinated for shipping fever at
least 10 days prior to the sale.
No bull calves will be sold. All

sales. Both steer and heifer caives
will be included.
All heifer calves will be tested
for Bang's disease when delivered
^to the sale. All animals must be
^ field-lnspeeted and approved by
the sales committee prior to the

At least three young North
Carolinians will go abroad in
1952 as "grass roots ambassa
dors" under the International
Farm Youth Exchange program
according to L. R. Harrlll, State

On a national scale, a grant
of up to $150,000 has been

No government funds are
used in financing the program,
which Is dedicated to the be
lief that understanding- is the
foundation of world peace.
The 1FYE program seeks to
further international under

Delegates from farms In this
country live and work with
farm families in other count,
ries for four to six months. Al
the same , time, rural youth
from cooperating countries
come here for similar exper

Last year, 75 American
young men and women visited
29 foreign countries, while 45
exchanges from abroad came
to the United States. With the
assistance of the Ford grant,
this year's program will be ex

Barrett Serving
Aboard USS Cockrell
Along with other crowmon serv
ing aboard the destroyer escort
USS Alvln C. Cockrell, Claud Bar- 1
rett, seaman, USN, formerly of
Gantt st? Kings Mountain, recent
ly partici|iatcd in the largest Pa
cific Fleet training exercises held
since the Korean outbreak.
The exercises, called "Lex Bak
er One," took place off the coast
of Southern California. Over 70
ships and 15,000 men of the Navy
artd the newly activated ? Third
Marines participated. .
Reality was added to the mock
war games by assuming that low
er California and several islands
off the shore had been captured
by an "aggressor" enemy. The
Navy's problem was the retaking
of the enemy-held islands through
amphibious assaults.
Ships of all types were used In
the exercises including subma
rines and aircraft carriers.
'Aggressor" submarines and
planes made repeated "attacks"
in harassing the task force, add
ing even more reality to the ope
ration. . . ; .
