Statesmen, Rams
Challenge FHS
Record This Week
Farmville High School's tin
defeated basketball squad facei
!‘s two greatest challenges thu
week, with Randolph Henry ant
Blackstone High's Rams. No. I
and No. 3 teams in the district
scheduled to face the Wolverines
The final week's court play foi
FamviKe will answer two ques
tions. both looming larger with
each passing game: can the Wol
verines hold up imder the pres
sure to close out their regular
season without defeat? Will either
Randolph-Henry or Blackstone
offer a real challcnege when the
district tourney rolls around?
Tire answers ate only a few
days away from being answered.
There are a good many Charlotte
county fans who feci Randolph
Henry's Statesmen are the cl' b
to stop the Wolverines. They'll
have their home court advantage
Tuesday night, and will be guard
ing against repeating the fourth
quarter relapse they suffered in
their first meeting with Farmville.
Perfect Record Test
Blackstone, loser only to Farm
viile and in their first meeting
with Randolph-Henry (a team
they have since defeated and at
Charlotte C. H.> are perhaps the
biggest, best-rounded squad the
Wolverines face m the District.
Assuming, and its a big as
sumption considering Tuesday
night's game with Coach Oar
letts fine Randolph-Henry squad,
that Farmville wins Tuesday and
gets by Amelia Friday night as
expected, then they' ll face Black
stone in the gym here Saturday
night with a double-barreled
challlenge. Win that final game
of the regular season for a record
of 19-0. and turn back the Black
stone bid as a tourney challenger!
Anyway one looks at it. there’ll
be lots riding on that season
finale Saturday mgnt here.
District Ran
Blackstone won once during
the week of hold on to second
place with a 13-2 tccord. Billy
; Elmore with 13 and Henry Irby
, at 10 paced tire win over Ken
bridge. 44-16.
Randolph - Hem;., won tvto
games and is firmly entrenched
in third, three games ahead of
Emporia. R-H downed Bucking
ham. 50-37. with Roland Canada
loqHirn? the scoring with 19. and
handed Crewe its seventh straight
loss. 39-24.
Victoria was another two-time
winner with a 49-30 verdict over
winless Burkeville. and a 60-62
triumph at Buckingham. Herb
Seay continued to lead the Vic
toria scoring with a 16-point per
formance against Burkeville and
a 31-point output against Buck
ingham.
In other boys games. Amelia de
feated Lawrenceville. 33-30. last
night in the last 20 seconds, and

exciting see-saw lead.
Fouls Hurt

personals halfway of the first
period and was held out. until the
second half when he contributed
seven vital points before fouling
out with a minute and a half to
go. Clyde Shelton left the game
mid-way of the third period on
the foul route and Ernie Newman,
missed vital minutes of the third
and fourth periods while being
held out with four personals The

ward, hitting on outside set shots,
the Eagles got off to a 7-4 lead
before Shelton knotted the count
with a fast lay-up at 9-9 half
through the first period. The
Wolverines held a 11-10 lead as
the period closed as Billy Frank
lin converted after Belmotc's
hooking foul.
Emporia went in front by four
points on Blann's lone shot and
Livesay's pivot, in the keyhole fust
before the half, until Newman
bucketed on a push shot from the
side and Franklin converted on a
foul, closing the Eagles' half-time
lead 18-17.

LT\RM\Il.I.E Chamber of ('unmii'iw
has appointed a committee charged with
conducting a continuing educational pro
pram to keep Karmville clean. This is
hearteninp news. Keepinp a town clean
and beautiful is not a one man .job, neither
can it be done by a small proup, but it is
possible throuph a continuing' educational
propram .which will develop a civic pride
in cleanliness.
The important sprinp Clean I’p cam
paien is udiedult'd for April. At that time
every citizen will he urped to put forth a
concerted effort to remove the palls of win
ter and prepare for the beautiful sprinp.
In the meantime, if would be revealiup to
take a walk around your premises and sur
vey the work to he done. Wo know, we
have dulie it. A pood bopinninp can be made
now which would relieve the work necessary
durinp cleanup week. Stray paper and
trash arc in the hedge and corners of the
fence, a lot of debris in tlie back yard, ashes
may In* in a pile near tin* house you go out
and look around and then plan to spend
April doing your part to make Farmville
the cleanest town in Southsidc Virginia.
The Herald promises the Chamber ol
Commerce committee full support in the
job it is attempting to accomplish. Febru
ary is not too early to plan a campaign and
begin to enlist the interest of the public.
In the business sections cleanliness de
pends largely upon the habits of people who
frequent the streets. If they discard paper
cups, candy wrappings, or other Irtish in
the streets and gutters instead of putting
the debris in containers provided for them,
it is humanly impossible to keep the streets
Clean. We might check up on ourselves as
we walk down the street and he conscious
of our habits good or had.

Babson Discusses

. .jsiied J i an China and the
pines: but h ive never been
. . •»,. nvnPfiS
i • ■■ modern v orld. which dares
b ck to the Roman Empire. There
two outstanding facts: <1>
,Ki>me one nation war; always the
■ i,,p doc " '2' That nation was
us ially at war with some other
nation which was a tempting to
tip over her “apple-cart ”
'l l Roman Empire started
A til good leaders and the best in
tentions. but it was continually at
war. These wars wen not to seek
more power but to prevent other
nation., from seizing the power
winch Rome then held Every
high setiooi student who has
studied ‘Caesar knows the story.
Finally -Rome was economically
exhausted with these continual
conflicts, and the Roman Empire
collapsed. Later the Spanish
Emprie look the leadership md
went through the . ame experi
ences. Then the French took the
ball.
REMEMBER THE BRITISH
Following Rome, Spain and
France. England became the
world s greatest power. She held
this leadership until the first
World War. Her battle cruisers
were in every port and she
policed the world, and was usually j
fighting somewhere She just had 1
to do this to hold her position i
England also was rich and did
the world’s banking, insurance ■
and shipping. The English Pound
Sterling was then the world's uni
versal currency, as is our Dollar
today. Germany, however, then
looked with envious eyes upon
England, as Russia is now jealous
of us. In her endeavoi to continue i
as “top dog." England went to j
war against Germany in 1914 and i
again in 1940. These last two wars
bled Engalr.d so that she is now
a second-rate power There now is j
little hope of her getting strong
again.
WHAT ABOUT THE U. S. A.?
The United States is now the
richest and most powerful nation ,
of the world. We have taken the J
world leadership from England. ■
But with this leadership comes
responsibilities. We must police j
the world. We ate likt a boy who
: ks the gang leader. In order to so
remain, he starts no fights, but
it some other boy . tarts .1 fight
. witli him or with any member of
Ms gang, he must fight that up
. start. Otherwise, he is no longer a
leader. His influence is gone. This
is the situation which tiie United
States has gotten into. We should
blame no one It just happened.
Unfortunately, we are like the
t man who had the bull by the
tail He was asking himself:
' 'Shall I let go or hang on':" If we
'ate to defend our position of
leadership we must continue to
field in Korea and where we an;
challenged. This means we must
'hang onto the bulls tail": but
this is and will continue to be an
unhappy position. On the other
hand, if we swallow our pride
and withdraw from Korea we be
come a second-class nation.
hi; can expect no peace
1 have a strong feeling that the
Chinese will get tired ot the fight
ing Then Eisenhower will work
out some kind of a temporary
peace with Russia which will
"save face" all around. Hut it will
be only temporary. Russia does
not want World Wai III so long

CARRY ME BACK
TO OI.D VIRGINNY
I'm down here in the Sunshine
State
Where Bonded palm trees “row ;
Where flowers bloom in winter
time
And tropic brei've.s blow.
Large coconuts and oranges
Are growing here til trees.
And it gives quite a thrill to me
To see such sights as these.
The flowers here are beautiful.
The homes are lovely too:
And many tilings of interest
Are here for folks to view.
I have seen great alligatoi
Here basking in the sun:
The weight of some of these large
brutes
Exceeds a half a ton
The bathing beaches here are fine.
And in the tropic sun
The bathers ride the white cap
lied waves,
Enjoying life and fun.
When it’s Virginia winter time
It does seems strange to me.
To see the folks in bathing suits
I
1 Here bathing in the sea
They claim this is a wonder state,
And in these claims there's truth,
But I have not found that foun
tain
To bring me back my youth
For. like old Ponce de Leon.
1 now have learned to know
We cannot find our yout h a s ain
No matter where we go
i And w hile this is a charming place
To visit for a while.
If really think Virginia turn
It beaten by a mile.
Tho waving palms and tropic
skies
May -live me some thrills.
I better like Virginia with
Her valleys and her lulls
Nostalgically yours.

\\ ith two turbines instead of one—and
with engineering advances all through

you can get from zero to .10 mph before
you take two breaths—and with wore
