IN "EATIN" OUT" ?
Local Resorts Mentioned
In New Book About South
i
The High Hampton Inn. Cash
iers, and the Highlands Inn. High
lands, are featured in a new
hook. "Tills Is The South", just
published by Rand-McNally.
They are named along with
some 70 other Southern hotels,
motels, resorts, and restaurants In
cluded in the chapter, "Eatin'
out," written especially for the
book by Roy H. Park, a native
North Carolinian, who is now
editor-in-chief of the Duncan
Hines guide books, published by
the Duncan Hines Institute,
Ithaca. N. Y.
Mr. Park is one of 31 contribut
ing editors to this new 300-page
volume about the South, edited
by Robert West Howard.
In the chapter on where to eat
in the South. Mr. Park names
some of his favorite eating places
among the establishments "Recom
mended by Duncan Hines." The
High Hampton Inn and the High
lands Inn are Included in "Ad
ventures in Good Eating," which
lists 4,000 of the best places to
eat in North America.
"Way atop North Carolina are
two lovely resorts with excellent
Inns," he writes. "General (and
US. Senator) Wade Hampton
lived near Cashiers, mountain
ringed at an altitude of 3500 feet.
The old inn he developed on his
2,200-acre estate has been rebuilt
and operates. In season, as High
Hampton Inn. It is quiet and in
formal, with superb scenery ?
provided you can take your eyes
away from the Apple Casserole or
Sunny Silver Pie.
"Just twelve miles west nestles
the historic resort town, High
lands, the highest Incorporated
town in the state. The Highlands
Inn there has a homey loveliness
that enhances its family-style
meals. Editor Bob Howard learned
this In June, 1958, when he stayed
there a day and a half to finish
a speech scheduled for Atlanta
delivery before a critical audience
of ministers and theologians at
the Church and Community Work
shop. The first morning, the How
ards were awakened by a light tap
at the door. A smiling waitress
swirled in, carrying a bridge table
in one hand and a tray with
coffee and hot rolls in the other.
'Bliss Kennerly," she announced,
'said to tell you breakfast ends
heah at 9:30. But youh got that
ol' speech t'do so we fix to bring
It up wheneveh youh ready. Th'
sooneh you finish', she said, 'the
moah you can git of this free
sunshine.' Miss Georgia Kennerly,
the Highlands Inn manager,
hadn't known the Howards 'from
beans' when they registered."
Mr. Park, who has been a long
time personal friend and traveling
companion of the late Duncan
Hlnes, takes the reader on an
eating tour of every Southern
state from Virginia to Texas.
