1t is known, however. that the
Governor is determined to go into
North Carolina. At least he is de-
terInined to do so now. 1t is in
North Carolina that the opposition
to his candidacy has been more
pronounced probably than in any
other Southern State.
1t is there that the Republicans
are striving their utmost to break
into the Solid South, and with
characteristic courage, Governor
Smith is determined to make an
appearance there TO fight the oppo-
sition on its chosen ground.
There has been some difference of
opinion between the schedule makers
over the Missouri date. Originally

Win In First
The Vets scored two runs in the
first inning which proved to be
enough to win the game as Bob

first, two putouts and a passed
ball in the fifth inning gave the
Moose their only run in the last
game.
Heinke opened the game with
a hot grounder down the third
base line which Pete Schmitz let
get through his hands and feet.

vancing Heinke to second. Little

in the second for good measure
Grummett was hit by a pitched
BALL and went to second when

pick him off the bag. Bob Kea-
ton and Cunningham famed and
Heinke singled to deep left, scor-
ing Grummett with the last Lee
gion run.
One in Fifth
In the fifth inning Neflo led off
with hot grounder to short and
Little Macs peg to first was
wide, Nello going to second. He
went to third when Blake ground
ed out to first. A passed ball al
lowed him to score from there.
With two down in the seventh,
Nello smashed the bail through
second and to the road for three
bases, but he died there when
Blake grounded to B. Keaton and
was thrown out at first.
Both Keaton and Vale hurled
good ball in the second game.
Zach was touched for three hits.
Vale famed three and Keaton two
men, and the former walked four
and hit a batter. Keaton walked

two errors, dropping two hard
chances. One of them was a

judged it almost perfectly and got
under it in nice shape only to let
the BAN drop from his hands. The
other was a line drive in short

Child Welfare Pro-
gram at St. Mary's
Most Interesting

Sunday evening most interesting and
valuable service was held in the Epis-
copal church which service was pro-
NOTED by the Parent-Teacher Associa-
tion presenting at this time a Child
Welfare Program. Inasmuch as this
service was at heart for our girls and
boys it seemed most fitting that they
have part in making it a success and
their presence was an inspiration to
all. Twelve girls from the Girl Re-
serves organization, with Miriam Gwin
as leader together with the Boys choir
of Saint Mary's with Mr.. Galloway as
soloist, composed the vested choir and
in beautiful manner led the evenings
worship in song. Besides these young
folks there were many Hi-Y members
and Girl Reserves girls in the congre-
cation. The offering which was made
for the benefit of the State and Nat
ional Child Welfare work was taken
by Morris Lewis, Jr. and Pat Barrett,
both officers in the Hi-Y.
The service was led by Rev. Standi-
fer Raper, pastor of the Methodist
church while DR.. H. L. Martin made the
address of the evening. A splendid ad-
dress it was too, and one that will long
Sc remembered in the minds and hearts

indication that the building program,
entered into by the church, will be car
ried forward until the building is COM
pleted.
Every indication points to an in,

day. The splendid thing about it is
that the interest is not confined to the
members of the local church, nor alto
gether to the citizens of this immediate
community.
