H. REX EDISON
Gastonian Named
State Polio Head
H. Rex Edison, leading busi
nessman of Gastonia, has accept
ed appointment as North Caro
lina chairman of the 1957 March
of Dimes campaign, scheduled
for the month of January. This
marks the second successive year
Edison has spearheaded the
March of Dimes organization in
the state.
The announcement of Edison’s
appointment was made by Basil
O’Connor, New York, President of
the National Foundation for In
fantile Paralysis.
Edison is a veteran worker for
the Foundation, having served as
a volunteer since 1940 when he
became chairman of the Gaston
County polio chapter. He resign

state chairmanship.
From his office today, Edison
appealed to all North Carolina
citizens to give their all-out sup
port to the coming March of
Dimes campaign. “Let us keep in
mind,” he said, “that the war is
not yet won. In spite of a safe
and effective vaccine, victory
against polio, unhappily, still lies
in the future.”
Homer Cummings,
Founder of Unique
Golf Event, Dies
Former U. S. Attorney General
Homer Cummings, founder of a
unique golf tournament held
twice each year in the Sand
hills, died at his home in Wash
ington Monday of a heart ail
ment. He was 86.
Mr. Cummings, who was the
late President Roosevelt’s firs^
attorney general and an ardent
supporter of the New Deal, was
long prominent in public affairs
of the nation. One of the best
known lawyers in the nation
when he assumed the attorney
general’s office in 1933, he fath
ered the plan to enlarge the Su
preme Court when, in the early
days of the New Deal, the Court
continually, blocked President
Roosevelt’s proposed legislation.
The Sandhills golf events he
founded, known as the “Homer
Cummings Golf Tournament,”
were held twice each year from
the first one in May, 1933, until
last spring when the 40 invited
guests met at Mid Pines Club.
The tournament drew wide
spread attention because of the
people invited to participate. It
was considered a coveted honor
to be invited to the tournament
and such well-known people as
Stephen Early, Gene Tunney,
George E. Allen, Alben Barkley,
Leslie Biffle, Joseph E. Davies,
Paul V. McNutt, Sherman Min
ton, and Scott Lucas were regu
lar players.
Mr. Cummings had carefully
made arrangements to hold an
other of the tournaments at Mid
Pines this fall, but it is not
known at present ’whether the
tournament will be held or not.
