MILLS RIVER
AND ETOWAH
TO PLAY HERE
First Scheduled Game of
Year Between Them to
be Played Wednesday

The old rivalry between the ath,
letic teams of Mills River and Etc.
wah will be renewed next Wed,
nesday night when the basketball
teams of the two schools meet in
double-header on the floor OF
the city gymnasium at 1880
o'clock.
This is the first time the teams
of the two schools have met in a
scheduled game this season and,
based on their showing against
each other in a couple of informal
practice games before Christmas,
the contests should be hard fought
throughout.
Particularly impressive has been
the steady improvement in the
two boys teams during recent
weeks. Last week the Mills River
lads bested the East Flat Rock
Quintet that had drubbed them
severely earlier in the season,
while couple of nights later the
Etowah Indians did likewise to the
Fletcher boys, despite the fact
that six. weeks previously the
Fletcher team had beaten the In
dams almost two-to-one.

TWO AUTOS
Crash HERE
Several People Escape In
jury; Fire Plug Broken
on North Main

Several people narrowly escaped
serious injury last night about 10
o'clock when two cars CAME to-
gether on North Main street at
the city park and one of them
turned over, breaking off a fire
hydrant as it crossed the curb.
The car which turned over be-
longed to Howard eagle and was
driven by U. G. Roper. 1t was oc-
cupied by eagle and Roper and
two young ladies, but none of the
four were injured aside from mi
nor bruises.
The car, a Chevrolet coupe, was
practically demolished when it
turned over and came to rest up
side down on the sidewalk.
The other car was Ford sedan,
driven by Moultrie Smyth and oc-
cupied by Mr.. Smyth and Frank
Rozzelle, Bill Bangs and James
Harberson.
According to Smyth he was driv-
ing south on Main street, the 9TH
er car came up behind him, struck
his rear fender, passed around his
car and turned over on the side
walk. The Ford car had DAM
aged rear fender.
In passing over the curb the
Chevrolet car broke off fire hy-
drant about three feet below the
ground and several thousand gal
Ions of water flowed out of the
main before the water could be
cut off.
Chief Otis Powers this morning
took a warrant charging Roper
with reckless driving and exceed
ing the speed limit, and the case
will be heard in mayors court
Tuesday morning.

APPEALS FROM

ASHEVILLE, Jan. 23.-(Spe-
ciaD Clinton Hughes, county at
torney, will leave this afternoon
for Raleigh, where he will ask for
extradition for Colonel Luke Lea,
and his son, Luke Lea, Jr., who
failed to report in court here this
morning when their case was call
ed for sentence after conviction
on conspiracy charges.
Colonel Lea faces sentence of
from six to 10 years, and his son
term of two to six years. The
young LEAFS sentence may be sus-
pended upon payment of $685.
600 fine.
Arrest of the Leas was ordered
when they failed to appear in
court here and surrender. Forfeit
ture of their bonds of $50, 900 was
ordered, when the sheriff return
ed a capias, mot found"
Felix Alley of Waynesville, of
LEAFS array of council when the
suit was tried last year was the
only member of that group in
court when action was taken.
He said privately that he was
simply present as an observer, in
order to see what course the case
would take. ,-.sr
Governor J. C. B. Ehringhaus
of North Carolina, will automati-
cally issue the extradition request
on appearance Of the courts at
torneys before him, and it was
said here that it is believed Gov
ernor McAllister of Tennessee,
LEAFS old-time political enemy will
honor them.
After this had been done, it is
believed that a habeas corpus
hearing will be asked by LEAFS at
torneys and regardless of the ac-
ton of Governor McAllister on
this phase of the case, it was be-
lieved that an appeal will be taken
either to the Tennessee state
courts, or to the federal court,
both of these tribunals having
jurisdiction over such an action.
1t was said unofficially here to-
day, also that County Attorney
Hughes and Solicitor Zeb Nettles
will both represent the state in
any appearance necessary in the
proceedings in Tennessee.

eminent likely to meet with much
opposition. according to rumhlings

parent that more opposition to
these recommendations will come
from the senate than from the
house.
There will be some slight OPP
position to the recommendation

board of equalization in its con-
troll over school expenditures, al
though present indications are
that there is a large majority in
both houses in favor Of this rec
ommendation. Almost all of tho
other recommendations made by
the reorganization committee
seem to have the almost unanim-
Gus approval of both houses, and
indications are that the legislation
necessary to put them into effect
will be enacted without much diff
ficulty. 1t is also apparent that
other bills will be offered in both
houses to go considerably farther

"The only trouble with the re-

not go far enough" is the com.
ment that has been heard from
many members Of both houses.
The fight against the proposal

sion will be led in the senate by
Senator John Sprunt Hill of Dur

state highway commission and one
of the ablest leaders and best
minds in the entire assembly. He
will be assisted in this opposition

tor T. l.. kirkpatrick of Charlotte,
and several others, who maintain
that the highway commission has
all it can do to maintain roads
without having to look after
guard, feed and maintain about
5000 prisoners.

highly technical organization that

AFTER Mr.. JEFFRESS

1t is now apparent that the agitation in the egls
lature in reference to changes in highway admins
tration has to do with more than mere policies. 1t
is obviously Mr.. Jefress the chairman Of the high
way commission, that determined element in the
assembly is after. The proposition to merge the
department with the prison board with one head
and the underground suggestion that this head will
be Senator Carl Bailey of Raleigh, verifes the
suspicion that the legislature is driving for person.
alties as we'll as for new principles.
Mr.. Jeffress made himself obnoxious to the
Fountain voters in the last gubernatorial race. He
was roughly criticised for having released the army
of highway workers into the cause Of Mr.. Ehring-
haus and now this defeated element as represented
in the legislature would doubtless feel fairly elat-
ed if it could succeed in driving him out of the
services of the state.
The legislature may have the majority to accom-
plish this purpose 1t has the power, of course to
make such changes in the administration it sees
fit and it may now have the WILL in addition, so to
write the law calculating such changes as to de-
prve the governor of the appointive power.
Unless that is done, Governor Ehringhsus will,
of course, retain Mr.. Jeffress as chairman of the
highway commission; that is, if the latter wants
the job after the legislature adjusts its pay.-The
Charlotte Observer.

PROFITS IN ARMS

At least one big business foresees enormous
profits coming its way. Manufacturers of arms and
ammunition are getting ready to reap rich haT-
vest from war. Down in South America Colombia
and Peru, Bolivia and Paraguay are fighting and,
since the disease is catching in that part of the
world, who knows how soon other nations may fol-
low their example?
In the East, Japan is hurrying all available troops
into China and the stage is set for campaign that
may last as long as China and Japan can buy war
munitions.
In England, Germany, France, the United States
and Italy there are large manufacturers of NUM-
tons who no doubt look forward to prosperous
times. They will go after the business regardless
of the request of the League of Nations that the
warning nations be prevented from purchasing
supplies from the members of the league, regard
less of the message of Mr. Hoover to Congress that
manufacturers in this country be restrained by an
embargo on the shipment of arms
These wars will stop if arms are denied the ma
tons involved. Wars no longer pistol and
bowie knife affairs. The cost of operating bat
terry of heavy or field artillery one week would
equal that of operating 4 far-sized town for
months or a large industrial plant for years. War
ring nations cannot finance and manufacture their
own war munitions. Knowing that to be true for
egn munitions plants are putting IN order their
furnaces and forges their laboratories, and high
explosive plants to participate side partners IN
the carnival of death promised by the jealouses
hates and greed of the warning nations.-Spartar-
burg Herald
