Child Aid Is
To Be More
Daily Dispatch Bureau,
In tho sir Waiter Hotel.

Raleigh, Jan. l0.-S0mc 2j.UDO Tar
Heel children will get about Il dollar
apiece more in grants t. dependent
children than in previous months, a.
a result in the Federal governments
assuming a greater percentage OF :he
total paid them. Perhaps Nv" or three
thousand of these bcnciic@Ti"5 VIII
be children who have not before been
receiving aid.
In figures, based on Inc Division
of Public ASsistanCe's quotas EOr JAN
uary, 24,255 children are expected to
get an average of SOL each against
actual grants of $500 each To 2O,14O
children in December.
Mrs. w. 7. Bost, commissioner Of
public welfare, pointed out that this
months grants will, therefore, ap-
proximately reach the departments
goal of $40 to each family with dc
pendent children. The family aver
age has been 2.55 children; and so
in January the average will be ST. 80
cents per child as compared with
1888 in December.
The increase is due to the fact that
the law providing for new method
of Federal contribution became cI-
fective the first of January. In the
past the grants to dependent chill
dren have been supplied in equal
sums by the Federal government, the
State Of North Carolina and each
county. Hereafter the Federal gov
eminent will match the total con-
tributed by State and county.
Thus there will be an increase OF
practically a third in the total amount
available for grants to dependent
children. In December there was
spent, in round figures, Sl27, 100000;
while under the new plan there will
be available for January $685. l.S9,
although there will be no increase to
either state or the counties.

The Calvary Baptist cagers hung up their uniforms
last night after a most successful season in which they
won the title in the Church school loop. During the sea-
son the boys won Fl of their "a games, which is no bad
record in any line of competition. Of these victories, Is
were over teams in the Church loop and the remainder
were over high school teams in the surrounding counties.
Calvary, which has always played a nice defensive game
and displayed at the same time a goodly shooting attack,
compiled no less than 745 points to 298 for their oppon-
ents. Graham McKoy and Woody Plyant were outstanding
at the guard positions during the season, while. Leonard
McKoy, big gun in the Calvary %offense, scored 302 points
alone. He was aided by Captain John Hunter, William
Rogers, and Ernest johnson, who played very well both
extensively and defensively. Substitutes were Sheldon
(Baby) Silva, J. C. Rogers, and Julian Nappy) Surles.
Calvary will lose the majority of its first string players
before the season opens next year, but already the boys
are scouting for new material that looks promising.
