Beach Promoter Hotel Booster R. W. Powell Of Goldsboro Thinks That Hotel In Southport Would Be Good Year-Round Proposition "A hotel at Southport is the I crying need of the moment. At | the same time such construction ! would be tops as a good-business | proposition. In addition to being I a big paying business it would ! help our nearby beaches more I than anything else would." i The above was from R. W. j Powell of Goldsboro, one of the leading figures among the own ers of Caswell Beach. Mr. Powell was being interviewed by the Rovin' Reporter for the Pilot ] Sunday morning. He brought out some local angles of the hotel I proposition that have not here Itofore been given much consider i ation. "You realize," said Mr. Powell, ' here at Southport a hotel would | be a good year-round paying I proposition. It is already a big need for sport fishermen, who come here almost the year-round. Added to them would be hundreds of tourists who come to Orton during the winter and spring months and who would like to come on here, if there was a hotel. Then there are hunters all through the winter and hundreds : of yachtsmen. All would like to j see a good hotel at Southport and j they would patronize it liberally. "Last, but not least," he said, "there are thousands of summer visitors to our beaches and there would be many times more if 'they could get hotel accommodations In Southport. The need for a hotel will increase^ greatly during i the coming year with the Bap ! tists taking over Fort Caswell." ! Because of the year-round an | gle of good hotel business at Southport, Mr. Powell was es pecially interested. That makes it a splendid business proposition, here, not there at one of the beaches, he said. A hotel at Caswell Beach or other nearby beach would be a pretty good business proposition, in view of their certain growth. However, he pointed out, a hotel at a beach would have to be a summer proposition, now and for some years to come. "Our beach es," he said, are growing around the summer home ownership idea, with many also thinking of year round-homes. The hotel at Southport will interest and bring in many people who will visit our I beaches, buy property there and j buiud homes there. As one of the ! Caswell Beach owners, I am deep ' ly interested in the need of a hotel at Southport." Seminary May i Like Prospect Dr. W. H. Davis Of Baptist Theological Seminary, Of 1 Louisville, Is Greatly In terested In Ft. Caswell I Dr. W. H. Davis, one of the 1 deans at Baptist Theological Sem inary of Louisville, Ky., is very much interested in the possibilities of Fort Caswell, which is being acquired by the Baptists of North i Carolina. Owning a home at Holden's beach and spending the summers there, Dr. Davis was seen at Shal dotte Saturday and Fort Caswell I was very much of an outstand 1 ing subject, so far as he was concerned. ? He pointed out that the place will take a lot of money to be developed to the furtherest of its possibilities. At the same time he expressed no doubt that the Bap-| tists will get that money andi [ really develop the place into some j thing of great value to all of i North Carolina, especially to this i ! area. He thought that with the phy sical properties already existing, Fort Caswell, as a Baptist seaside assembly ground will become self sustaining in a few years. The great hot water mineral bathing | pools will become a feature that i will attract thousands. The place can be made into a great year round recreation ground for young people with facilities for all sorts ! of sports. Dr. Davis foresees in the utili zation of Fort Caswell by the Baptists an almost unlimited era i of development for the whole ! beach area of Brunswick, with 'the benefits extending through this and neighboring counties. HOSPITAL "DONATIONS J. J. Loughlin, J^., manager of the Dosher Memorial Hospital, slated this week that many nice gifts and donations have recently been made to the hospital by the colored residents of the county, especially noteworthy has been the contribution of the members of the Southport colored Baptists church. Mr. Loughlin and other hospital officials say that they are sincerely appreciative of the fine spirit of cooperation shown the hospital by the colored citizens of Brunswick county. AND MORE OF IT!
