church said, Reverend Chambc<x
has been with us six months and
has made splendid record. But
he has not worked with the Of
ficers of the church. He took his
recommendation directly to TIE
church instead of talking them
over first with the officers OF the
church He presented his recom-
mendations to the body and they
were accepted. However they were
not carried out in full; so he pre-
sented them a second time last
Monday.
The deacons and the pastor
had never had a meeting. The of
ficers had never seen the recon-
mendations. He brought them di-
rect to the body and the body az
a whole acted on them.
Usually we pay the pastor his
salary and pay all the help ON
Monday night. He wanted his ON
Sunday night. But we don't do
that. He says he meets his bills
on Monday, but 1t is contrary 10
our discipline to pay on Sunday.
We pay him $4,000 a month plus
light, heat water, and telephone.
Then he wanted the pastor and
the help to be paid by check. But
If he had to be paid on Sunday
and the others on Monday, there
might not be anything in the bank
when he went down with his
check. 1t might not be possible to
write check on Sunday for we
might not have anything in the
bank.
I'VE tried to talk to him about
it, but he would not let anybody
express himself. We either had 10
accept his recommendations or let
him 60.
HE read his resignation, asked
all to stand and have prayer, then
dismissed them and walked out
OF course, the church will have
to act on his resignation one way
or the other"

machinery. The question of ade-
quate training is large problem
in itself and deserves serious study
by educational authorities.
In discussing the designs and
production pattern of farm ma
chinery, White stressed the need
for machines to fit the family
sized farm. mo doubt" he said,
adequate credit to buy farm ma
chinery will be a problem for
rany of the smaller farmers
Farmers on smaller family
sized units may need credit to
consolidate their holdings and en-
able them to get on basis to
mechanic their production. To
handle this problem we have the
credit facilities and background
experience Of the Farmers Home
Administration and the Farm Gre
dit Administration, as well as the
commercial lending agencies.
Concluding. White said, ITO
summarize the thinking OF those
of us in the Department OF Agri-
culture who WORK with cotton, ]
would say that we want to push
mechanization all we can and as
fast as II is economically feasible
We would like to see 1t suited fol

to do all we can TO help people

w ILL., BY Roy Cook

# has been a long time, but while LOOKING over .
.rap book of Joe Newton, we discovered a mistake made
~ or column. The mistake was made in 1919 hnt Ioo
III 4rI insists we publish a correction.
In THE Eastern North Carolina Navy Day CONTINGENT"
which left Wilmington late in the summer of 1912 was Joe
Newton. who was a star player on the Star-News softball
Joe sang his swan song with the Newsies team with :
npfect day at bat, smuggling out three hits in three times
# hat. Joe was a good player, a hard fighter, and being a
rather small chap, ne was extremely proud of his batting
average.
In our column we had this to say about him,
Young Joe, a ikeable chap as ever donned ? baseball
Toyp. was star catcher on the Star-News softbal1 m and
Galley boy in the COMPOSING room. He prohabl- was the
Hanover leagues most colorful player, a hard working
o+chpr and batting .351."
Joe told us that he thought he could do more good fight
ing the Japs than solving the slants of opposing pitchers
,s he left to Join the Navy.
Little Joe was assigned to the aircraft carrier Wasp and
vas aboard for many missions. He was aboard the Wasp,
n the same task force, when the carrier Franklin was lost
! in the Pacific.
The Wasp was also hit in this battle and 1o3 of Joe's
shipmates were lost, but the Wasp crew continued their
fight
After the Japs surrendered, Joe returned to Whining
Inn and resumed his duties in the COMPOSING room. He
Joined the Veterans of Foreign Wars and Immediately
iofnpd their softball' team.
It was one evening a couple of months ago that Joe
came into the news room with a huge scrap book under his
arm. Say, fellow. you made a mistake about me and I
want it corrected"
Being a little puzzled at his sudden outburst we asked
what we had done to offend him. Joe opened his scrap
book, turned to pace % and pointed to our column, whats
WRONG with that" We asked.
wait a minute" he yelled as he turned the pages.
page after page of Joe's provinces as a softball player was
posted in the book. Soon. he turned back to page % and
located the item he was seeking.
A complete list of the averages of the players in the
Hanover league was printed. Joe Newton's name was on
top of the list. The records were plain. Joe Newton, Star
News. ALB rs, R 6. NJ IA, RBI 5. Pet. 400.
"Thats what | mean, YOU made a mistake, and l have
been embarrassed, | want it corrected" Joe stammered.
So it is with a great deal of pleasure that we make
this correction.
Joe Newton entered the Naval service in the summer
OF 1912 and at that time had a batting average of 400 in
the Hanover Softball league.

Series

The fifth game of the Sen

championship series will be
played tonight at Robert

Bert Hawley, city recreation

The Spofford Spinners,

the split season, will meet the
City Opticians, second half
champions.
The series is now knotted
with each team having won
two games. Wet grounds and
rain have cancelled the fifth
game for the past two weeks
and both teams are looking
forward to fair weather to-
day in order to complete the
seven game series as soon as
possible.
Lawrence Cook, ace hurler
of the Spinners, will more
than likely get the starting
assignment for tonight's bat
tie. A. L. King, speed ball
artist Of the Eyemen, is the
probable choice of Manager
Frank McCOll. The remainder
of the two lineups are ex-
pected to be the same as in
