Jf ry Schumoth?r Weather Fouls Up Golf , Fishing, and Pictures ? The weather c*n sure foul os up4 every now and then. Twenty-one men, all executives from a furni ture factory in Lexington, came down here to go sport fishing. They chartered five boats, rented a mess of hotel rooms, bought all kinds of refreshments and what happened? We have a mullet blowl On top of all that It made playing golf a bit on the difficult side. Even a friervi of ours who is a famous color photographer came down here to do some photos raphy and the weather being bad he spent all his time yakity yak ing with Penny and I so we didn't get any work done either. This slight breeze also clobbered Vernon Guthrie's beautiful red and white speed boat. She is now lay ing at the bottem of the bay. And to think that all, the weatherman said was- "Showers possible." There's a guy in this town named Cy Adams, who really loves to danre; old swivel hips we eall him. Too bad he born a boy. As a girt with that jeweled movement of his I believe he would put Salome to shame. His dancing Is sort of a cross be tween a genuine hula and the bumps and grinds of a bur lesque queen. Now Cy will danre anywhere, the Civic Center, the Blue Ribbon Club, or what have you. They had a really fine band over at the beach opening ,day so we went over to listen to the musie and who do you think was dancing In the street? Same old Swivel Hips! Well, the Country Club is hav ing a golf tournament to deter mine who is going to be the club champion. All the hot shots are out practicing everyday and every body you talk to is way off his game -can't hit the broad side of a barn with a snow shovel, etc. If we had as many good players as we have alibis and excuses, we would sure have some tournament believe me. Dig Em Up Garrett even bought a new set of clubs. P. S. He shoots worse now! Of course, I have a legitimate excuse. The reason I am not playing so good right at the moment is that when I practically quit smoking it sort of shook up my timing or something. , , Who is the joker that banned real shorts from the golf course? Doggone it! Some idiot is always taking the joy out of life. Here we suffered all winter long through long-handled undies and ski pants and hunting boots and ear muffs and the only thing that kept us going was the thought that just around the corner was that won derful, good old summer time, when the glamour chickadees would be prancing around in their priitine glory. We had even hoped a bikini or two might show up. Then this tragic earth shaking announcement "No short shorts." My. old buddy, Capt. Bill has gone and did it, he leased the Heart of the Beach. There he ii going to open a sea rood restaurant featuring sea food in the rough, don't know how he is going to manage; seems to me he is the busiest man In the county as it is with running Capt. Bill's Water front Restaurant and keeping track of all his yeunguns. Fishing Trip Is Restful For Woman, Writer Says POPLAR BLUFF, Mo <AP) Mary Mick, columnist (or the Pop lar Bluff American Republic, haa figured out why 29 per cent of the anglers nowaday! are women. Says Mary: "The average woman now has so many labor saving devices that it'a a terrific strain fo keep them all in operation. She needs the relax ation of a pleasant fishing trip. "If men were half as smart as they would have us believe, they would know that a wife who un derstands the Joys of angling will be much more agreeable about her husband's fishing Jauata."

Jaycees Reseed Morehead City Football Field The Morehead City Jaycees are as happy over Thursday s rain as the farmers. The Jaycees put 900 pounds of fertilizer on the More head City High football field and sowed 100 pounds of .grass seed Wednesday afternoon. The water problem is the big issue now confronting the club. Thursday's rain solved the problem of watering the newly sown field, but getting additional water on the field for the rest of the summer has yet to be done. So far the club has had the field graded. Discing was done last Tuesday, and the fertilizing, seed ing, and harrowing was done Wed nesday. C. C. McCuiston, golf pro, super vised the job and brought along Greenskeeper Edward and Bruce Williams to help several members of the club with the work. Golf club equipment was used in the work to date and Mr. Mc Cuiston, according to Jaycee Rus sell Outlaw, has promised the use of the golf club's watering equip ment when and if the Jaycees find a way to bring water to the field. Heading the 'project is Dr. Out T??'"ahd Cy Adams. Volunteers frofifT tire Jaycees have been drfing an excellent job, says Dr. Outlaw, in getting the football field ready for the 1954 season. The committee is grateful to Mr. McCuiston for his services and to the golf club for the use of^equip ment, he said. w. u 3 1 3 1 2 2 2 2 2 2 0 ? Atlantic Beaufort Morehead City ......
