Dabney Grange Is Winner Saturday From Ay cock, 14-5 The Dabney Grange baseball team scored a victory over the Aycock Grange nine at Aycock Saturday by the score of 14-5. The game was very close until the fourth inning when hits, errors, walks, and hit batsmen counted five runs for Dabney. In the next inning Dabney counted six more times, making the score 11-1. For the remainder of the game the two teams played on equal terms. The winning battery was composed of Capps and Parham, while Hoyle and Wright formed the loeing com bination. Several times, early in the game Capps found himself in deep holes, caused by poor fielding of his team-mates; nevertheless, he pitched his way out beautifully. Mangum and Crews topped the hit ters of the day with Mangum collect ing four singles out of five trips to the plate, and Crews getting a single, a double, and a triple out of five trys. Each team collected 13 hits. Next Saturday Dabney will engage Aycock on Lassiter’s field in the first contest of the second half of the Grange baseball league between the two teams. —Reported.

Two Solutions Offered In State Money Dilemma (Continued from Page One.) make necessary a further reduction In salaries and other expenses of about 20 per cent. He would also withhold from the school fund approximately 12 1-2 per cent of the original allot ments. or a total of about 81.500,000. This would bring about a total re duction In expenditures of about 32.- 500.000 and make it possible for the State to get through this year with out borrowing any money, but it would still leave a good sized-deficit. The deficit at the expiration of this fiscal year In the general fund was 33,937,000. On the basis of the Bame revenue this year as last—and that Is unlikely—the deficit at the close of this year would still be 31.500,000, even with the reduction’ of 32,500,000 proposed by Burke. The budget would still be out of balance by that amount. The plan proposed by Treasurer Stedman is somewhat different and far more drastic and would extend to the budget and funds of the State Highway Commission. Stedman be lieves that the proposed cut of 31,- 000.000 in the allotments to the State departments and institutions support ed from the general fund Is too dras tic and that they cannot stand such a heavy cut. He proposes that this cut be limited instead to not more than 3700,000, pointing out that the allotment tto these agencies last year were reduced from 37,200,000 to 35,- 00.000, or more than 22 per cent. In addition to this cut of 3700,000 in allotments from the general fund. Stedman would withhold 20 per cent of the allotments fgom the school fund both for the six months and ex tended term, which would amount to holding back 33,400.000 of school funds, mostly for teachers’ salaries. This would result in a total saving of 34,100.000 from the general fund, or about what the deficit will amount to at the end of this fiscal year on June 30, 1933. The deficit this year was 33,837.000. «r But Stedman would go even far* ther and slash the allotments from the highway fund to the State Highway Commission by 25 per cent and thus hold back 34,000,000. which could be kept in the State treasury as a float ing fund to take care of emergencies, !

Then we had crossed the second one. and a moment later were dashing around the pat hi at the edge of the cove, and out toward the north beach where the debris had come sliding down the aide of the peak. 1 remember making a mental note as I ran past, of seeing both Living ston’s and our boats tied side tfy side, and realizing that Plnga must have captured their guard.

J answered. “I thought I told you to stay up In the temple." Larry told her. For an answer she olmply gave him a look! “Where Is he?“ she asked briefly.

Then his better judg ment came to the refccue and he an swered lightly: “And now I am glad I didn’t mur der you the other night. Livingston We now accomplish virtually the same ends by other means.” The tone was light, and he was smiling, but there was a sting In the remark Holmes hated Livingston; for when you can hate a dying enemy, tt Is given you to hate as few can. Livingston laughed aloud, spon toneously. “I did leave myself open for that one. didn’t IT’ The man was a cool rascal, but he had that Indefinable thing, which for want of a better name, we call ’charm’.

This would still leave some 312,000 000 for highway maintenance and new construction, Stedman points out.
