EARLY COUNTY NEWS, BLAKELY, GEORGIA
his Week
L 3 ee
By EARL “TIGE” PICKLE
Well. T thought I had seen every
thing, and now I guess I have. I saw
a man walking down the street the
other morning wearing a pair of solid
pink trousers. I wouldn’t be caught
dead in them, but this fellow looked
like he was right proud of himself.
Mr. J. L. Barnes, the owner of the
loan company up the street, brought
this football story over from Savan
nah:
Two colored teams were going at it
in high fashion. One team boasted a
halfback, who was the star. His name
was Calhoun, and Calhoun had been
his team’s main work horse through
out the season. When the team needed
that extra yardage, they called Cal
houn’s number. The other team knew
that if it was going to win the game,
Calhoun had to be stopped.
Late in the final quarter. with the
score still tied, and Cai.oun’s team
in posession, the play was over next
to Calhoun’s bench. The coach, cupped
his hands to his mouth, and shouted to
his quarterback, “Give the ball to Cal
houn.” Calhoun’s number was called
and a guard and tackle met Calhoun
at the line of scrimmage, and really
clobbered him. No gain. The team
went back in the huddle, and again,
the coach got the attention of his
quarterback and in a half-shout, half
whisper, so as not to attract the atten
tion of the officials and draw a penalty,
“Give the ball to Calhoun.” This time
two linebackers came crashing a\ross
the line of scrimmage and red-dogged
Calhoun for a five yard loss. Again the
team went back in a huddle, and again
the Coach shouted to his quarterback,
“Give the ball to Calhoun.” The quar
terback broke out of the huddle and
hollered back: “Hey, Coach, Calhoun
say he don't want the ball.”
My young neighbor, Joe Peters, a
third grader, fell off a ladder the
other day, while attempting to climb
into a pecan tree, and fractured his
arm, the second time within a year
such an accident befell the luckless
Joe. Joe took it in stride and very
philosophically, too, I might add. After
getting the limb patched, and upon
leaving the doctor's office, and on the
way home, he looked up at his daddy,
Billy Peters, and said: “Well, I reckon
I'll get my name in the paper again.”
That boy up at Perry with his duck
tail haircut has created something of
a furore. Such haircuts had been pro
hibited and he was sent home from
school. The young man's rights might
have been violated, as some people
claim, but I want to go on record as
being on the school principal's side.
This commotion should have never
occurred. Disciplining children is like

Tomorrow night is the night to
which all of us football fans have been
looking.: Our Bobcats have won the
1-B--West championship and are to
meet Blackshear. The 'Cats did every
thing which was asked of them. They
went through the season without de
feat, and won the right to enter the
playoffs for the state crown. Now it is
time for the fans to act. I mean by this
that there ought to be the biggest
crowd ever at Standifer Field. And I
predict there will be. There will be no
reserved seats sold, and those planning
to get an advantageous spot from
which to watch our noble lads, the
Bobcats, eliminate Blackshear better
get there early. Word from Blackshear
is that they are coming to play. Black
shear fans are trying to charter a
train. That's what I said. A train.
There hasn’t been a passenger train in
Blakely in many moons. So if the
Blackshear fans are successful in com
ing by rail, this event is likely to add
some excitement to the evening's fes
tivities.

Dear Tige: |
I have been following the fighting
“Bobcats” through the Early County
News, and could hardly wait from one
week to the next to read the results
of each game, and as I would read the
highlights of each game, and see the
name of the player being recognized,
it would bring back memories of
1932-33, when I was a “Bobeat” play
ing with the daddies of some of these
“Bobeats” of today. I want to con
gratulate them on their fine record
this year, and wish them the best of
luck Friday night in their champion
ship game. I know they want to win,
but I hope and pray, win or lose, they
will walk off the field withe “the old
Bobcat spirit”, saying “we played a
hard and clean game.”
It is impossible for me to be in
Blakely for this championship game,
but I will be in Blakely for Thanks-‘
giving with my mother, and am hoping
to hear a good report on this game
at that time.
Your truly,
WALTER HAYES,
An ex-Bobeat.

FIBERGLASS DRAPES
Fiberglass curtains and draperies
should not be allowed to rub constantly
against anything but fiberglass. Be
sure they are just shorter than floor
length to avoid abrasion with the car
pet or floor when draperies are drawn,

A4-H HYBRID CORN PROGRAM
o *
Yields benefits for
& ®
a growing Georgia
YOUNG PEOPLE are our greatest natural re
source. Cultivating the enterprise and skills
of our youth produces a harvest of progress
for our state. v
For 14 years the Georgia Power Company,
in‘cooperation with the Agricultural Exten
sion Service, has sponsored a 4-H Hybrid
Corn Program. Thousands of boys through
out the state have participated.
The young farmers in the program have
consistently tripled the state’s per-acre yield
of corn. When the program was started, less
than 20 per cent of the state’s corn was
planted to hybrid seed. Last year, 85 per cent
was planted.
Corn is important to Georgia. More acres
are devoted to it than to any other crop, and
it has the greatest dollar value.
The 4-H Hybrid Corn Program is only one
of several projects we sponsor for Georgia’s
farm youth. It's a way of investing in the
future of our state.

MEMBER, THE ORDER
OF THE GOLDEN RULE W “
A Thought for Today . By: Edsel W. Bryan
“The three most difficult things are—to keep
a secret, to forget an injury, and to
make good use of leisure:”, . .V Chilo
about the first two things, we have little to offer.
As to the art of making good use of leisure, it would
appear that this is the opportune time to whittle
* away at the backlog of small chores and duties which
collect in the backwash of less leisurely times.
Leisure is the time for unhurried small repairs
and bigger amends. It is the time to make a friend,
better yet—rediscover an old one. It is the time to
lend a hand, to right small wrongs and—before this
welcome time runs out—to plan for just a shade
more leisure in days to come.
