Sly ManufacturiJ3 Company have announced an expansion of that industry to be financed' by a $25,000 BAWl bond issue. W. W. Sly first located a plant in Mathiston in 1960. Since that time, there has been a steady increase in operations, and the addition to its present building will house special heavy machinery which will require the employment of some five to ten additional per- sonneL The expansion is con-' tingent upon approval by the' voters of Mathiston and the sale of bonds at a satisfactory rate of interest.

Norman Hilliker, of Mathiston, is the local manager of W. W. Sly. A new and modern pulpwood yard near Mathiston, constructed and owned by Ten- nessee Pulp and Paper Com-pany, will soon be in operation. The yard will be leased and operated by Andy Johnson, of Ma- ben.

Three groups, all from the famed Cavern Club in Liverpool, pool their talents in Where jerked off his shirt, and joined forces with Wiki Wiki and Curtis. After thinking the situation over and the odds being three against two, Guess and Scarbo went to the dressing room fussing all the way. There is a good possibility of a rematch this coming Saturday night, so the American Legion and the Forest Jaycees invite you out at 8:15 in the Stock Show Arena. points some spectators made attempts to go in the ring and help Curtis, however no one made it, and Curtis managed to hold on for a draw when the match was stopped by the time keeper. In the second 15-minute match, Oni Wild Wild from Jackson and Hawaii was paired against Billy Currie from Little Rock, Ark.

This was very funny and interesting to watch, with both men using many different and unusual techniques in trying to win this match, however the time limit also caught them and it went for a draw. The main event, an Australian Tag Team, paired Earl Guess and Duke Scar bo against Curtis and Wild Wild. Curtis and Wiki Wiki took the first fall with Wiki Wild putting the final touches to Duke Scar bo. The second fall went to Guess and Scarbo. With the help of a few rough and dirty moves, Guess finished off Randy Curtis when he could not reach his corner to tag his partner.

The third fall was a toss-up for about twenty minutes, until Guess got caught being dirty with Curtis and didn't want to give up his hold. Referee Charles Putt got into the act by trying to force Guess to break his hold, and in so doing, Guess fought back at him.
