Registration In
Primary To End
After March 18
The deadline for registering in the
March 28 primary has been set by
the Board of Registrars as Tuesday,
March 18, ten days before the elec
tion date. W. O. Moore, chairman of
the registration board, made this an-
nouncement Monday.
This action is taken by the board
to permit time for revising the list
and preparing anew list of voters
for use by the election managers.
Preparation of anew list 'is a con
siderable undertaking and requires
time, caution and care.
The 1952 registration, caused
largely by an influx of Negro regis
trants, promises to break all previous
records in the county. During the
past few days hundreds of colored
voters have affixed their names to
registration cards, and the Negro
vote easily may prove the balance of
power in the year’s county primary.
Already beyond the 500 or 600 mark,
it is estimated that as many as 750
Negroes will qualify for the spring
election.
Two years ago because it did not
puit those in power for Negroes to
vote, hundreds of names of colored
Were stricken from the list under the
new registration law. Negroes were
accused of “bloc voting” at that time.
Under the latest law enacted by
the legislature all those on the old
and new list are considered qualified
voters.
Until March 18 boys and girls be
coming 18 years of age, new resi
dents of the county and those who
tiave never previously registered are
entitled to register and take part in
the county primary.

Mammoth Hawk
Caught in Trap
Riley H. Hay of Flovilla displayed
at The Progress-Argus office the
foot of a mammoth chicken hawk
caught in a trap. The hawk reported
by Mr. Hay to have been the largest
he ever saw, measured 55 inches
head to tail. The bird was caught in
a trap baited for foxes, with a crow
used as bait.
Mr. Hay also reported the recent
capture of a large wildcat. The mar
auder was also caught in a trap and
put up a lively scrap before being
subdued.
There are scores and scores of
foxes in the Sandy Creek area, Mi.
Hay said.
A rather disturbing wildlife note
was reported in the form of a bear
on the Old Lawson place. Several
persons are reported to have seen
the bear recently. Mr. Hay said.
