they tied it up 41-41, forcing the
game into overtime play. The
Academy led 1928 at half time.

important.

ines with Is points. closely fol-
lowed by Jimmy Atkins with IL.
Other Academy point makers
were Bobby Gilmer 8. Billy c.
Hubbard 4. and Jimmy Harris 8.

Soap Box Derby.

Soap Box Derby.
The program is open to boys
from II to Is years of age, with
two racing categories. one for
boys 1915 and the other for the
II and IL year olds.
Detailed drawings of a racer
can be seen in the Farmville
Furniture Company window, and
Sequin said he intends to build
a racer himself to get the project
underway. However, boys who
compete in the races must builc
their own racers and must drive
them in the race.
One feature in the program is
safety. All possible precautions
are taken for the safety of the
boys. One of the requirements is
the wearing of unaltered Official
racing helmets. These helmets
will be furnished by Newman
Chevrolet Sales Company, &C.
cording to D. A. Gates, Jr.
Besides being a lot of fun,
there's pot Of gold at the end

FOR THE BIRDS

a pair of Blue Jays were scratch
ing around with their cocky atti-
tude. 1t is relief to see these
beautiful birds back with the Red
Bird. instead of the dull unat-
tractive Starlings that have been
so common this winter.
With the return Of these birds.
The Herald will start a series of
stories on this sports page. about
birds. The stories are written by
the National Audubon Society,
and will be factual and most in
formative. This new series will
start next week.

Gen. Russell, 9th Army chief

equipment in Korea is largely
outmoded.
Gen. Russell said the major
supply facilities in Korea now
are located in the Seoul-In-

cause of the danger of renewed
fighting is considered too near
prospective front lines.
He said the Army is building
new depots in the Taegan-
Taegu area more removed from
the possible fighting front.
There is still too much
World War II equipment in the
hands of United States and

"First-class soldiers deserve

I'VE have first-class soldiers,

Of our forces in Korea but the
process is too SLOW"

to replace its pre-World War
