Washington-Carolinians Shake Off Holiday Doledrums, Hopes Gay Fall By JULEA McNINCH SLEAR With Washington - Carolinians (and others, of course) returning, sunburned and vacation - worn from the three-day ween - end of out-of-town fun, the Capital is be ginning to shake - off this year’s Labor Day doledrums. Not so much as a leaf stirred during the holiday interim, and Society which had reared its hesd slight ly at the prospect of the Fall Sea son, was just as dormant. For those who did not follow the thousands of Tar Heel holiday seekers in the homeward trek - to the beaches - to the mountains or to the Legion convention in New York there was an occasion al picnic in the park, - such as the Dick Lowe's gay family af fair - the Jud Harry’s and the Pete Nelson’s; a cruise down the Potomac such as that propelled by the John Lawsons for a half dozen friends. Practically all of the other Tar Heels we know in Washington sauntered through the zoo with the children - or nodded drowzily in the hot sun, just plain loafing contentedly at home. With a few exceptions every one leaving the Capital for the an nual September holiday went South - to the land of sparkling lakes, pine - scented zephyrs and roaring seafoam, despite the fact that behind the exodus - and in part, the reason for it, was the burning memory of those recent hot August weeks in Washington! Mr. and Mrs. Fred Morrison and small daughter, Myra, who have been at Nag’s Head during the heated Washington weather spent the long week-end ir Shel by as the guests of Mrs. O.
