On Monday evening, the ninth

orial Cup for low net of the field

Welcome, Miss Truman
Pinehurst, the majority of
whose cottagers and winter visi
tors might be expected to hew
to the Republican Party line, is
not standing on party politics in
its warm welcome for Miss Mar
garet Truman, who arrived
Monday at the Carolina.
This daughter of a Democratic
President has earned respect in
her own right as a gifted member
of the theatrical profession, and
is here rehearsing for her stellar
part in “Time of the Cuckoo,’’
which will undoubtedly play to
capacity (bipartisan) houses dur
ing its April 10-15 tenure at the
Pinehurst Playhouse.
The darling of the press be
cause of her sincere charm. Miss
Truman is married to the execu
tive editor of the New York
Times, Clifton Daniel, Jr., and
plans to visit her husband’s fami
ly in his native Zebulon after
this particular acting stint is
completed.
It was Cliff Daniel, incidentally,
we were interested to note, who
in 1954 wrote Jazz King Benny
Goodman from Moscow, asking
him to send over some jazz
records for the Soviet Ministry
of Culture. 'This apparently spark
ed Russian interest, and in May
Goodman will head up a group
of top jazz musicians for a tour
of Russia under U. S. State De
partment auspices.
dledum and Tweedledee, in their
racing debut before an audience
Sunday at the Pinehurst 'Track.
They are a neat pair and made
a fine appearance in their brief
exhibition before the Stoney-
brook Steeplechase March 24, and
Octave Blake, in his introductory
1 emarks about the three-year-
olds, said they are quite competi
tive and seem to enjoy racing
against each other.

Captures Essence
Eudora Garrison of the Char
lotte Observer editorial staff,
captured the essence of Pinehurst
and Southern Pines in a recent
column when she noted, “. . . the
visitor is drawn without the bally
hoo of commercial come-on. You
automatically know about Pine
hurst and Southern Pines, or you
don’t. And if you don’t—you’ve
missed two treasures. If you do,
you’ll never miss a chance to go
there.’’
Miss Garrison has a keen eye
for hallmarks too—old frame
hotels, with elegance, small neat
shops with unstudied smartness,
clean white sand, stalwart pines'
country roads, handsome homes,
full-blown camellias and, of
course, world-famous “manicur
ed” golf courses.
