INSPECTION NEWS
By Raleigh Waldrop
It seems there has been lots of new homes
built and remodeling of present homes. Frantz
Bishop has recently moved into his new home
on Carolina Avenue in Brevard. Oscar Lothery
has moved into his new home on Turnpike Road.
Tom Brotherton spent his vacation remodeling
his home, and "Farmer” Hutchins is still in the
process of remodeling his home. Good going,
Boys!
Gordon Whitmire still holds the record in trad
ing, he spent his vacation peddling peaches. Good
peaches? Just ask Rastus Smith or Kenneth Mc-
Daris. Earl Galloway has been trading cars—
he now owns a Pontiac Sedan.
Ask Jim Sheppard who catches the fish in
his family, the latest report his wife landed an
18-inch bass at Fontana Dam.
Inspection can be proud of the boys who
played in the all-star game in Asheville. They
were Roy Head, Rusty Garland, and David Sams.
Our sympathy goes to Howard Lawing whose
aunt, Mrs. Nannie McClure passed away August
9. "Vick” Sigmon has had his share of troubles
this month, he had five stitches taken in his hand
and his wife was in Transylvania for treatment
the 7th and 8 th of August and is now improved
and back at work.
Barbara Jean Wilkie, 13-year-old daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Howard Wilkie, had her tonsils
removed at Aston Park Hospital.
We are sorry to hear of the illness of Thur
man King’s father. He was called to Austell,
Georgia, August 9th, to be with his father who

CHAMPAGNE MACHINE SHOP NEWS
By James R. Poteet
On Friday evening, August 12 th, the fellows
from the shop gave a fried chicken dinner in the
Pisgah National Forest. Everyone seemed to have
enjoyed the party to the fullest extent, and we
are very sorry that some of the fellows were un
able to attend. Those who didn’t make it really
missed a treat—a good meal and a good time.
Those present were: Doyle Moss, Ector Capps,
Joe Perry, R. B. Shealy, Ed Wilson, Alfred Cheek,
D. C. Landreth (the principal speaker of the oc
casion) and yours truly. Walter Straus and
photographer Dick Landeck were also with us.
The younger children cannot reach the water
fountain at Camp Sapphire, so they devised a
means of getting a drink when they are thirsty.
They stand on the porch of the Recreation
Building and turn the spigot on, then proceed to
quench their thirst. Here it looks as if two are
trying to get a drink at the same time. The two
young ladies are Anne (left), 4 years old, and
Katherine, age 14 months, daughters of Mr. and
Mrs. Harry Dreyer. The lad in the center, who
turned the water on, is Randy Alexander, 2 year
old son of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Alexander.

her sister in Fayetteville. Frances Orr seems to

Asheville visiting her brother who is ill. Mildred
Batson used some of her vacation canning vege
tables as she looks ahead to the winter months

Island.
