Man Jailed In Sunday Assault 4. Sheriff C. W. Wier said yesterday that Bill Flow is in the county jail charged with assault and battery with intent to kill.

Flow was arrested should be under the direct control of school authorities and not local enthusiastic fans. Once outsiders donate to athletic causes they will want to control the atheltics and say how their money is to be spent. Many of the colleges and universi ties are over-emphasizing athlet ics as the public well knows as a spectator sport. Look at the Army scandal recently where 90 cadets were expelled for cheating at the Military Academy, a group of foot ball players because so much time was required on the playing field they were unable to give the proper time to their college courses. And there are reports of low morals of big-time college athletics exposed in the fixing of basketball games. These are signs of what happens Tuesday by city police in Whitmire, the sheriff said, in cooperation with officers of this county. Rasor was treated in a local hos pital and released Tuesday. Attendance Record For September Mrs. Marguerite Patterson, coun ty attendance teacher, has submit ted the following report for the month of September: Number white pupils enfolled, 6,009; number of colored pupils enrolled, 3,036; average attendance white, 96 per cent; colored 87 per cent.
