Married State
Employees Fear
Jobs Doomed
Al Married Women Whose
Husbands Hold Jobs
Work for N. {.
By J. c. Baskerville
The Timos-News Burenu
Sir Walter Hotel

RALEIGH, Feb. 15.-Married
state employees, especially those
where both the husband and wife
are employed by the state, are al
ready much agitated as the re-
suit of the resolution introduced
in the house by Representative
Thompson of Columbus county,
requesting all department heads
now employing these married peo-
pie to discharge one or the other
before February 20 and SO report
to the committee. This resolution
is still in committee, but indica-
tions are that it will pass the
house, though its fate is profile
NAUTICAL in the senate.
According to the list attached
to the resolution and now posted
in the house, there are rs mar
ried couples, with both the hus-
band and wife employed by the
state, who are receiving more
than $1,000 year in salaries
from the state. The list was COM
piled by Representative Thomp-
SON from the salary lists in the
department of personnel.
Under the terms of the resolu-
ton, the couples would be given
the privilege to decide whether
the husband or the wife shall
continue in the employ of the
state.
Married women who are en-
ployed by the state but whose
husbands are employed elsewhere,
are also getting nervous, although
no resolution or bill has been in
Itroduuced as yet affecting these.
It is indicated, however, that a
resolution is now being prepared
that will relate to these married
women, but that it will not be as
drastic as the other one. He in
Dictated that the cases of these
married women should be consid-
cred individually on their merits
rather than collectively, and that
the committee is not trying to
GUST any women from a job mere
ly because she is married. But
the committee does believe that
unless there is specific reason
why married women should be
employed, especially if her hus-
band is employed and able to
support her, that she should make
way for a single woman who has
no means of support. There are
al married women employed by
the state whose husbands are at
present employed, many of them
at substantial salaries, who are
now receiving a total Of $4S,620
year in salaries from the state.
Thus the present total Of sal
aries received by married couples
and married women working, for
the state amounts to more than
$118,600 a year.

There is youth, and certain ur-

that makes the younger stars love
them.
Vivian Reid wears a claret wool
jumper dress, with white silk
crepe blouse with pulled sleeves
and a turned-down round collar.
The skirt and straps are made all
in one. She pulls them up over
her shoulders the way lazy man
does his suspenders. She wears
white accessories, giving the dress
a spring look, and white earrings
or the chalk-china LOOK made for

Other youngsters who lean to
jumper dresses include:
Sari Martha, who wears a black
one, with red. black, white and
gold plaid taffeta blouse.

This sky pony corresponds
closely to the "blimps" of the
American navy, except that l. has
a rigid keel its full length, into
which are built the armaments,
the crew cabin, and the two 400.
horsepower motors.
After this first model ship ha.,
been put through tests, more may
follow to provide a dirigible fleet
to accompany navy transports as
protection against cruiser and
submarine attack. Equipped with
a pneumatic bumper, this ship
can land by itself. -
The E-9 is shaped like a gold.
fish, short and squat, with the two
lobes of the balloon definitely de-.
signed. 1t has a gas capacity of
10000 cubic meters. The semi
rigid envelope is 240 feet in
length, 65 feet in height and 81
feet through at its widest.
Fully loaded with fuel and arm
aments, the Egg can travel $500
kilometers at 100 kilometers an
hour. Stripped of ornaments and
its keel fitted with fuel tanks. it
can fly 4,500 kilometers at 80
kilometers an hour.
This is the first dirigible France
has built since the loss of the Dix

dirigible, which was wrecked in q
gale between Italy and Tunisia.

HOYAS DROP TIGHT
GAME TO CARNEGIE
Skibos Intrench Selves in
Second Place in League
With 1927 Win.

~ ITTSBURGH, February 18-
- Carnegie Tech bounced into un-
disputed possession of second
place in the Intercollegiate
basket ball conference by handing
Georgetown a 32-27 setback tonight.
The victory was the third for the
SkiboS in league competition against
one defeat and Georgetown's fourth
loss against only one win.
From the time Bob Smith drove a
field goal into the basket in the OPEN
ing minute of play, the Skibos were
never behind, although tied twice in
the first half by the HoyaS.
Tech went into an 11-3 lead, saw
i Georgetown pull up to an I'LL
tie, again at 1913 and then the
Plaid got going for a 23-16 margin
at the half.
Georgetown tossed a scare into the
Scotties' ranks with 5 minutes to go
when Hargaden connected for a field
goal underneath the hoop to make the
score 28-24, and Carolan added a foul,
putting the Hoyas only three points in
arrears, but they couldn't maintain the
pace.
Hargaden, the Georgetown guard,
took scoring honors for the evening
with five field goals and two out of
seven free throws for IL.
