Extra Million Dollar
Bond Sale Sought
In Holmes County
Money Will Buy
Bomber To Fly
Over Berlin

The name Holmes County may be
on the nose of a giant Flying For
tress bomber in a raid over Berlin,
Tokyo or Rome in the near future if
the county participates fully in the
campaign of the Mississippi Farm
Bureau Federation to sell an extra
million dollars worth of war bonds
during February, March and April
according to an announcement by
Owen Cooper, secretary of the Farm
Bureau Flying Fortress Bond COM
mittee.
Each county has war bond quota.
This quota is to be filled by bonds
either purchased or sold by Farm
Bureau members. When the county
reaches the quota, it will get 100
points. Another point will be given
for each per cent the quota is ex-
ceeded, and another point will be
given for each $1,000 in war bonds
sold. The two counties with the
highest number of points will each
name Flying Fortress.
The quota for Holmes County is
$4,000. Plans are underway now
to get the county Farm Bureau
members to either buy or sell that
number of extra bonds in the next
three months. Bonds sold in this
campaign will count on the regular
county quota, however. Much in
terest has been shown in the cam
paign thus far and indications are
the program will be a great success.
Farmers in Mississippi have been
doing a swell production job on the
home 'front.'" commented Owen
Cooper, secretary of the campaign,
"but they have long wanted per-
sonal representative over Berlin,
Tokyo, or Rome. This is their
chance and they win make good their
opportunity.

ened considerably today when
Ray Wolff, who starred for three
years at Dartmouth as half
back, reported to Coach Frank
Kimbrough today.
While Wolff isn't expected to see
great deal of action against
Wake Forest, Kimbrough said he
would be used extensively against
Camp Lejeune and N. c. State in
games later this season.
Today's drills featured a little
of everything in the football book.
N. Strazdas, who was shifted from
fullback to the wingback post,
went back on his old job, and
Kimbrough said that Hecker and
Holmes, both of whom are Ca
diets, would start against the Dea-
cons at wingback.
Kimbrough said that while there
were no outstanding injuries in
the squad, the roster was not
well-off physically. Several cadets
expected to start are ailing from
minor injuries.
