'ilunt Ida' Muliis To Mark
Her 81st Birthday Sunday
When you've been dancing for
72'years, it's awfully disappointing
whett you finally have to quit. '
The fact that she can't cut a rug
with the young folks these, days
worries, "Aunt It,a" Muliis. Aunt
Idifr '-In case you haven't heard, Is
fixift- to celebrate her, 81st. birthday
Stm'day.
Her doctor warned Aunt Ida
sodpje time ago that she'd have to
cease tripping the not-so-light fan
tasize at Saturday night square
dafic.es. "You have a slight flaw in
yoirr heart ... if you have a heart
inifhe first place, that is," the phys
ical commented. .
Ijhe trouble Is that Aunt Ida;
can't even go to square dances as
a spectator, "People just keep pull-1
ing'imd tugging on me to dance
v.ii, them," she complained.
Anut Ida's advice for young peo
ple on how to live Ji long life, is:
"Work and, be, active. Hard Work
never hurt anyone." .
The Mountaineer staff had what
wis considered a good picture of
Aunt Ida, but she didn't quite
agree. Taking one look at the
photo, she ordered: "Don't use that
one; It looks like an old some
thing." .' : .
Besides being a dancer, Aunt
Ida) Is known as somewhat of a
political figure in these parts. There
have been rumors going around for
sdrae" time that Aunt Ida has Re
publican, leanings, She doesn't deny
tlj$, but asserts vigorously that
she'S no straight-ticket voter.
"in the other side has the best
man, .I'll vote. for him," she re
marked. ' -
X'sked if she would have a good j
word for the Democrats on her
birthday, she replied: "Yes, if I
can think of one."
tVith the national elections com
ing, up next year, Aunt Ida is soit
of hankering for another bad cold
lik6she had during the last election..'-'
-
''It was the worst cold I ever
had," she related, "but it kept me
fi-pm smelling the rotten politics."
She hasn't decided who she'll
,- vote& for president, but President
; Truman stands a pretty good
chance of losing Aunt Uda's vote
if -he decides to be a candidate.
"I was promised a peck of tur
nips if I'd vote for Truman in
1940,'' she recalls. "Well, I wasted
my vote, and npver did get those
turnips."
1 ipne of Aunt Ida's favorite pas
times these days is attending the
major's court at the police station
uSflally held each Monday, Wedncs
day and Friday. And she's more
than Just a spectator in the court

she helps those in trouble in

Gniiion, Says
' "Before the Little League got
started in Canton boys of one sec
tion wouloy roek' a boy of another
part of town if he left his terri
tory." ..-..'
With that as bis opening remark,
Jack Justice, recreation director
of Jth6 Champion Y of Canton,
launched Into a discussion of Little
League baseball before the, Way
nesville Kiwanis Club at its regu
lar meeting Tuesday night. ' . (
"After we got the league orga
nized," continued Justice, 4,the boys
gradually, learned through compe
tition and cooperation that, sports-i
manship and ability know no boun
daries. The rocking stopped and
a new, broader feeling of 'boyship'
replaced it." ' '
Justice was introduced by Dr.
R.' S. Roberson, president of the
local Mountaineer Little League,
who was present at the meeting
along with vice-president, A. P.,
Ledbetter, as special guests of the
club. In his introduction Dr. Rob
ersOn reviewed the history of the
local league, and gave much credit
to Lawrence Leatherwood for hav
ing originated the idea more than
three years ago.
Explaining that he liked boys
work "because It gives me a chance
to be a boy again," Justice drew
upon the experience of Canton to
stress, that proper supervision is
"the main thing." He paid tribute
to Bruce Jaynes, saying: "Bruce
will make a fine general manager
of the league. Had I been given
the job I would have cvhosen be
tween two men, and Bruce would
have been one of them."
In his talk Mr. Justice laid heavy
stress upon the value of the super
vised sport. "Too many boys," he
said, "think the only thing that
matters is victory. This league play
will teach them that it is more
important to play fair than to win."
Ho gave an example of how this
was done. "In spring training all
players within the league, are di
vided up equally. No team is per
mitted to get control of the mar
ket. The boys quickly learn that
the object is not just winning, but
is the development of skill and
character."
In answer to a question, Justice
assured the ,Klwanlans that all
players are completely covered by
insurance, "The league requires
it , and provides it, be repeated.
Justice was brought to Waynes
ville for the meeting by Bob Win
Chester, chairman of the Boys and
Girls Committee of the club. It
was the efforts of that committee
that brought the Little League to
the attention of the club and caus
ed it, along with the Boosters, the
wons,.ana notary, the J.e.c. and
the Elks,, to put its influence be
hind the idea.
I Earlier In , the meeting a new
member, Oral R. Yates, was wel
cOmed into the club. Final plans
were announced for the Charter
Night program next Tuesday at
which many distinguished guests
will be present.' It was announced
that part of the program will be
broadcast over the local radio ;ta
tion.
