Dunn eleven in cneck for three
quarters.
Several hundred persons brav-
ed rainy night to watch Coach
Bermey Stevens take the wraps
off of his 1857 edition of Red
Devils.
The Red Devils gave local fans
something to shout about in the
opening minutes of the tilt when
they moved from tkcir own 40
10 the Dunn Is whcle they lost
the ball on downs. This marked
the only serious threat of the
Right by the Devil: but their
defensive play was outstanding
and prior to the fourth period
they matched the Dunn crew
yard for yard.
Lack of bench depth took its
toll in the final period. The Red
Devils, holding their own on the
strength of the INITIAL starters
Plus two or three substitutes
" ere too tired To hold Dunn
"Gen the fourth period got und-
icrway. A steady stlcam OF sub
IStitutcS kept the Damn griddcrs
rested and ready to take advant-
age of the Red Devils weakness
Dunn scored early in the
fourth period when halfback
Taylor Plunged across from the
Red Devil 5 yard line. Taylor
added the extra point with an
end run. The DunnsterS led TO.
A few plays later Dunn was
again on the MARIN after inter-
Icepting a Tabor City pass on the
&c AZ. Dunn moved the ball on
several plays to the Tabor CITY
10 where p. McLedr pushed
across for the final score OF the
night. The PAT was not good.
1t wrapped up the game and
gave Dunn 1870 victory.
Outstanding in the Red Devil
forward wall Were Mickey
Watts, Gene Dellinger and Billy
ISOles.
Offensive honor5 went TO
Quarterback Kenneth Eddings
and Fullback Mitchell Anderson
who kept the Red Devil attack
moving and were threats at all
times to Dunn's defensive unit.
Halfback Taylor was Dunn's
big gun. He not only scored the
initial touchdown but helped to
set up both scores with his hard
trimming.

State lunchroom Supervisor
Grants 3 Months Grace Period

I. Ward Guy, Columbus coun-
ty superintendent of education.
said this week that Mrs. Anne
Maley, of Raleigh. State super
visor of the school lunchroorn
program, had consented to an
eight months grace period DUR
ing which the local school must
raise the Sl653.84 deficit in the
'lunchroom fund.
MIR. Guy said Mrs. Maley had
informed him of the new ruling
by telephone bu: apparently
nothing in writing had been re-
|ccived in this regard. She had
first said the money would have
to be raised before school OPEN
ed.
Mrs. Maley originally wrote a
letter To NJ. Guy in which she
said"
Mrs. Maley, in her original
letter TO T. Ward Guy stated.
The cash balance for the
lunchrOom, as established by
audit, is S2,168.4J. which Is in
agreement with the distribu-
ton ledger balance; however.
the actual bank balance of the
cOmmingled bank account a.
mounts to only S514.84. or
81 GGg l.
that belongs to the IunchroOm.
This means that Sl,553.S4 of
lunchroom funds have been
used to pay bills of other
school activities, which is not
permissible. From our stand
point the bank balance must
never be less than the amount
applicable to the lunchrOom.
These funds must be replaced
TO the iunchroom account by
the time the I957-5S operation
begin and this office advised
Of the date the funds are re-
placed"
Mrs. Maley, as State Supervis-
or of lunchroom programs, has
the authority to cUrtail Federal
Aid. without which school lunch
room programs would be i'm
practical. According to Mr.. Guy.
tho money Will have to be re-
placed during this school year or
the possibility of losing the as
IsiStance will again 5c faced here
next fall.
/ j. Oliver Prince. local school
board chairman, said today that
he had received no official not
.!f.-ation from Mrs. Maley con-
corning the Juno hgoom opening
and that there were still no def
mite plans for opening next
Monday"
The problem of repaying the
Sl65384 is one that can't be
solved simply by opening the
lunchroom. If we ignore this in
debtedness. we will be confront
ed with it again at the end of
the school term, and we will find
ourselves again worrying about
whether or not the money can be
raised and what the conseau-
ences will be if it is not replaced
in the lunchroom fund" Prince
said.
\ The local board Is expected
TO meet this week To- discuss the
0lunchroom problem and the new
eight months grace period rul-
ing. Should they agree to open
the lunchroom with the funds
still not replaced, there still may
be several days delay in getting
open. II takes several days to
adequately stock the lunchroom
and prepare for the opening"
Prince said.
