Coach Bing Miller is already max
ing plans for a big football season
next year. Eleven new uniforms will
be ordered this spring and the approx
innate fifteen old ones that can be
used have been sent to the factory for
renovation. The new athletic field is
being built up so that it will shed
water and plans are now being made
to sew grass on it after it has been
put into condition. Plans also for a
fence around the field have been dis
cussed with Supt. E. M. Rollins. 1t
is very likely that Henderson sport
fans will see the Bulldog squad show
their mettle on a thoroughly modern
athletic field next season.
To add a touch of color, arrange
ments have been made to have the
newly organized high school band play
at the games and at pre-game pa
rades. -
Coach Miller went to Raleigh Sat
urday to Join the third eastern dis
trict conference of the North Caro-
lima High School Athletic Association.
Henderson was placed in group num-
Der one which includes Chapel Hill,

conference football game will be play
ed at Apex on October 8. Bethel Hill
comes to Henderson on October Is and
Chapel Hill on October 20. November
will be left open in order to play off
tie, if there is one, or to play the
champions of group number two.
Non-conference games have not yet
been scheduled; november, dates are
pending with such teams as Lawrence
vile, Va, Wilson, Warrenton, South
Hill, Preparatory School for Boys,
Asheville John Marshall High School
Va, and others. Coach Miller states
that he does not intend to play schools
next fall that have consistently in the
past played boys that were not even
in high school.
Miller stated recently that plans for
spring practice had been called off on
account of a full basketball schedule
end a crowded physical education
program. Plans for an early fall
practice are now under way and the
mentor expects to find many new
faces at that time out for the team.
Many of the larger boys from the
communities around Henderson are
planning to enroll in the high school
here next fall in order to go out for
the tear IN that. case many of the
veterans from last years squad will
be pushed to hold their berths. Some
of the most promising boys to return
next year from squad which won
out OF games this season are Jack
Mitchell, tackle; Lonnie Harris, guard,
Ed Rem, guard; Billy Peace, back,
Tommy Jenkins, center; and Hunk
Coghill, back, Billy Aston, end.
The quarterback position on the
team is wide open for next fall. Both
Turner and Ayscue are graduating
this year thus leaving the team with
but one man who called any signals
at all last year Billy Dunno, hard
working back, alternated with Turner
at the signal-calling post in a couple
of games. To fill the backfield posi-
tons left open and the end positions.

graduation, will be quite problem

Due to rainy game days last fall
the towns people did not come out to
the games in as large numbers as was

CHAPTER q

JANET PAINTER trained east
today alone, did you know?"
"You mean she actually went
away and left the gorgeous Joel
alone in Hollywood" Laughter.
! ..TIe wouldn't be alone anywhere.
If he were my husband I'd never
go as far away from him. Why
did she? / thought they were
filmland's famous devoted couple. .
Nobody knows why she went. "
Business Of struggling shoulders.
"But, after all, she couldn't expect
to hold him forever. She's hardly
in his class"
Somebody told me that she had
lot of money. Was a debutante
in New York and he hadn't a red
cent when he was a chorus boy and
they were married"
'sWell, it's all over now, I guess. p"
"Who do you suppose will be the
next one?"
"I'd put my money on Carol
Griest. She doesn't care whom she
tells that she refuses to make an
other picture for Modern Century
until they borrow Paynter to play
opposite her."
"You know, he has kept the rec
ord pretty clean. Paynter. I mean.
You never see him at any public
affair that he isn't with Janet. And
l think she's cute"
"Cute? She's smart but she's
quiet as little mouse. must say
1 can't see what he sees in her.
She must have had money. Any
way, she's gone back east like
most of the girls who can't stand
the gaff of having a handsome hus-
band that 20 million women rave
about"
Janet Paynter, one short day out
Of Hollywood, sitting serenely in
the depths of a big chair in the
observatiCsa car and gazing out
over the desert, was unaware of
what tongues were wagging over
her so soon, of what conjecture
there was rampant over her de-
parture.
It was utterly inconceivable in
Hollywood that an idols wife
should go east alone for the SIM
pie reason that she desired to see
her old friends for brief few
weeks.
It had to be a breakup! 1t

able to both Of them together and

Or else, it meant that they were

EVERY COUNTY HAS
FARM AGENT NOW
Dean Schaub Says This Is
True for First Time In
State History

College Station, Raleigh, Feb. IS
For the first time in history, every
North Carolina county now has the
agent, Dean 1. O. Schaub, of State
College. announced here today.
This record coverage of all 100 coun-
ties in the State was made few days
ago when C. w. Overman went into
Dare county to assume the duties of
farm agent, the dean added.
The number of agents has increased
materially since the AAA programs
were started in 1888, he continued, as
ii was almost impossible to administ-
err the old AAA or the newer soil
conservation program in counties
which had no agents.
Many counties now have one or two
assistant agents in addition to their
regular agents, he pointed out.
The. present staff of. farm and home
agents over the State is as follows,
the dean said: 100 farm agents and
70 assistants, 76 home agents and two
assistants, % Negro farm agents, and
II Negro home agents.
Overman moved to Dare from Ber-
tie county, where he had been assist
ant agent working with B. E. Grant,
county agent. Overman was succeed
ed in BERTHE by r. D. Smith.
In his first report from Dare Coun-
ty he said he had examined the soil
and climate of Roanoke Island and
found the n1wel suited to growing
fruits and vegetables.
Another Of his first projects was to
arrange for treating hogs with serum
to eradicate cholera, which has been
attacking swine in that area.

simple facts were not emotional
and therefore not understandable.
IF Janet had been the wife Of a
young stock broker in New York
who suddenly decided to go to
Boston or Chicago or Detroit to
visit a friend nothing would have
been thought Of it.
But scarcely had the first word
been out that Janet Paynter was
eastward bound, than the tongues
began to wag, the scribes to swing
into action and all the forces of
the publicity machinery to move.
It buzzed on telephones and in
telegraph Offices. Before Janet had
arrived at Albuquerque, the movie
going, newspaper reading public
knew that Janet Paynter was on
her way east without her husband.
The inference was plain, The
Paynters were going to split up.
Janet didn't know that. That
anything she did could be Of any
interest to the public was beyond
her comprehension.
When the usual phalanx of news
reporters met the Century on ar
rival in Chicago, and sought her out,
she thought it extremely odd and
decided it must have been because
there were no stars travelling on
the same train.
They asked her the most per-
sonal questions about Joel and her
marriage. Long schooled in the
art Of keeping in the background,
Janet merely smiled or said TITS
ridiculous" or. 81 haven't the least
idea what you're talking about"
She was willing to talk about
everything except her marriage or
Joel. She was always careful
about those two subjects. Janet
had began to realize that what the
studio wanted her to say and do
was important.
She didn't take the questions of
the reporters seriously and there
everything except her marriage or
for when her train from Chicago
to New York was boarded by a
Mr.. Kelley ''of the New York Of
fee" at Harmon, az miles out Of
New York, where steam locomo-
tive is exchanged for an electric,
Janet was trif1e stunned.
Mr.. Kelley had been waiting the
arrival of the Century impatiently.
He was anxious to reach Mrs.
Paynter before the train arrived
at Grand Central and she was be-
sieged by reporters.
what on earth would they want
to besiege me for?" Janet asked,
considerably annoyed that she had
to endure the company Of this
worried and annoying young man
for the last hour of her trip.
Now that she was far away
from the coast and nearing New
York and Martha, she was begin
ming to experience a new feeling
of anticipation. She had never
been truly lonesome since she had
known Joel. There had been no
wrench for her in leaving the job
she had enjoyed, the circle Of
friends she had had in the days be-
fore she was married. She had
left New York with only the
slightest pang. But then she had
had Joel always at her side.
Now she was alone. Every small
garment, every appointment in the
airplane luggage neatly piled in
her drawing room was hers. There
were no pipes in her jewel case as
there usually were in her joint

travels with Joel. Joers slippers
were not to be found, wrapped in
her soft chiffons. There would be
no box Of imported shaving cream
lcrowding out her small crystal
jars of cosmetics. Should she open
her case suddenly, no neckties, no
discarded shirts would tumble out.
Janet felt strangely lonesome
for those things even while she
first began to enjoy the feeling of
being complete entity. She was
not really a Mrs. Paynter. She
was Janet Paynter. She was a
lady travelling alone with every,
minute Of her time belonging to
herself. T
She could do exactly as she
pleased. IF her feet were tired,
she didn't have to stand on them
and pretend to feel fresh as a
daisy or have them walked over at
night club. She didn't have to
push her way through mobs Of
people with outstretched hands
begging for autographs. People
wouldn't turn to look at her in the
streets and she could turn and
look at as many people as she
wanted to.
If she wanted to buy a five
dollar hat, no salesgirl would say,
But Moddon, you wouldn't be in.
terested in that"
Not Mrs. Joel Paynter. She was
free Of the price she had to pay
for being with her celebrated hus-
band.
She was free to curl UP for
hours and listen to Martha talk.
To hear about the shiftless Harri.
gans who'd never done a lick of
work in their lives but paid for
their maintenance in Chester with
the humorous doings of their brood
of children. To hear about the
new young doctor who was young
to Chester even though he was SO.
To hear about the changes in the
church board. To hear all the
things that would be music to her
ears after the tiresome, repetitious
gossip Of Hollywood. Not to hear
a word about ''the picture I'm
making.
At least she would be free, when
she got rid Of the young Mr.. KEEL
cey who was trying to capture her
attention while she packed the
things she had been using on the
train.
''Er ,. Mrs. Paynter, I'm afraid
you'll have to tell me the truth so
that We'll know how to meet the
press" he was saying amazingly
enough. He captured her atten-
ton.
1.-THE truth? About what? And
why would the press meet me?"
He was embarrassed but bust
ness-ike. about your separation.
What statement do you wish to
make regarding leaving Mr.. Payn-
ter. They'll ask you about di-
vorce."
"a divorced" Janet turned a
shocked face to him. "What di-
vorce? I haven't left Joel! And
I'm not going to! We're as hap
lpily married as we always have
been. You can tell that to your
press. And you can get rid of
them any way you please but TIL
not say one word to them. This
trip is my party and the public
has nothing to do with it! Now, if
you'll excuse me please, I'll finish
my pacxing!"
