RALEIGH, N. c., Dec. 3D.
Defending champion North Car
olina State faced the finest bas-
ketball field in the tournaments
history as the fifth annual Dixie
Classic got under way at Rey-
nolds Coliseum today.
Included among the seven en-
trants hoping to break the Wolf
pack string are two undefeated
teams-Navy and North Caro-
lina-who play each other in
this afternoons opening game.
Despite their records. neither of
these teams is among the favor

Although the Wolfpack has
won every Dixie Classic and is
undefeated this year on the
Coliseum floor. the team at best
ranks as co-favorite with Oregon
State.
The tall Beavers, topped by
7-3 Center Wade Halbrook, lost
a 1872 overtime game to top
rated Indiana last Monday. But
the following night, on a neutral
floor, the Beavers whipped the
Hoosiers, 67-51. Last Saturday
they blasted Ohio State at CO.

MIAMI, Dec. %. - Punting,

important either to Maryland or
Oklahoma this season, could be
a mighty big item when the un-
beaten Terps and the once-beat-
en-, once-tied Sooners meet Fri
day in the 20tn Orange Bowl
clash. If so, who's going to kick
for Maryland?
If Bernie Faloney's injured
knee keeps MIN on the sidelines
Bill Walker will kick for Mary
lands first team, even with
Charlie Boxold in the game. Fred
Heffner will be available for spot
punting.
Walker has punteu in a game

had been hurt. 1t was sufficient

Boxold punted only twice all

against Oklahoma. Boxold said

Walker is.

that Walker received in practice

THE FIRST THANKSGIVING

- The first Thanksgiving Day in Noble county was on
Christmas.
But Noble county and Ohio still part of the
Northwest territory at that time and the official who pro-
claimed the first day of Thanksgiving wasn't Santa Claus
The man who started the great festive day the wilder
ness that is now Ohio Gov. Arthur Stellar
1888 as "a day of solemn thanksgiving and praise when
the inhabitants would unite in humble supplications
Almighty God, that he would be gracousy pleased to
prosper this infant settlement and the whole territory in
their husbandry trade and manufactures, by His
nurturng hands, mature and bring to perfection all
aries of learning the promotion and enlargement pey
and true religion amongst all nations of the earth"
Stellar closed his proclamation of the first Thanks
giving Day in Ohio with typical Puritan admonition "and
l do prohibit servie labour on that day.
Thanksgiving Day has been changed several times by
succeeding governors and presidents Regardless of
date the day always observed with the greatest enth-
sas in Ohio No other place earth has to be thank
full for than Noble county and Ohio and the citizens
community and state intelligent enough to realize that
God has been especially kind to them.
Noble county has long way since the first dav
of solemn thanksgiving in Marietta at which time the
population could be counted by hundreds and the horizon
seemed to be as near as the walls of the stockade
The same faith that prompted the proclamation of
OhoS first Thanksgiving day helped to carry the pioneers
thru terrible trbuatons and establish the way of life that
Ohioans and Noble counans have cherished for century
and half.
In this sesquicentennal year, the day of Thursday

denominations and in the homes of eight million Ohioans

Dear Editor:
Caldwell is a town nestled in
the beautiful hills of southern
Ohio. The city itself is not large
but it is peaceful and for the
most part clean and impressive
The average tourist or traveller
when going through Caldwell is
favorably impressed.
There is one exception to this
observation No doubt there
are many citizens who will take
up arms in defense of their
neighbors. They may even be-
come indignant and offer ex-
cuses. They may say the writer
is woefully misguided or mis-
taken. But he knows what he
has seen.
We refer to the manner of
dress of your children when at
tending school. Particular refer
ence is made to the attire of the
young ladies. In most places,
overalls or jeans are forbidden
(even for boys.)
But when we see the young
ladies go stopping along the
streets, we wonder about your
school board, your PTA, the par
ents. If there is anything that
gives your city that silly look,
that hackWoods look, that really
small town look, it is this institu-
ton Of prisoners of war garb of
the ladies.
And by the way, workhouse
inmates wear a similar uniform.
No wonder today many women
are exhibitionists in the matter
of dress.
They start early in life. A
woman can be modern and yet
modest. Many styles today are
daring extremes with particular
emphasis on advertising the
physical. Strapless and plung-
ing lines-shortS-and the jeans
that do not have much slack, in
them-that'S the fad.

Editor, The Journal
We, as farmers, are getting
one "Big Laugh" from your
editorial of a few weeks ago,
concerning the Farmers Insti-
tutes."
Everyone has been sure you
and the town people would be
in attendance. Either we do not
know you or your attendance
was lacking. We realize you still
have one more week to attend
such a great educational meeting
for the " Farmers"
A few years ago a very elderly
old gentlemen (who should have
been home resting) was brought
in as a speaker. If one so much
as moved or hinge on the door
squeaked, he became very
abusive to the audience, scold-
ing, etc.
Other times the speakers tell
of their travels and how they
farm in South America, Mexico
or "Shangri La"
Or even some conservation
man plasters a board with tire
some figures lasting close to an
hour.
Yes, indeed, we are sure this
is certainly worthwhile but be-
fore your next editorial just at
tend one and see for yourself
where and how the taxpayers
money" is being spent and
think you'll agree with most
farmers that something of more
value could be done with this
money.
Not knowing what age man
you are but if you are an older
man, we would judge yes, there
were probably of value when
you were in school but they have
been "outdated" for the past 20
years.
Know you do not like "anony-
nous letters" but neither do we
like editorials that smell.
Editors Note - 1t is always
amazing to this paper that any
| one who has such definite ideas
on anything that affects so many
people does not have enough be-
| lief in his or her convictions to
sign their name. But the writer
| does have several good
points. We are interested in how
others feel about the Farmers
Institute meetings. Let us hear
your views, pro and con. We
have made an exception in pub
fishing this letter for the feeling
expressed is general and not OF
