\ RE/ADERS SWAMP OFFICE WITH j
INQUIRES AS CAROLINIAN MISSES
FIRST ISSUE IN 11 YEAR SPAN
For the first time in its eleven-year history, tin
j CAROLINIAN last week failed to publish an issue, j
much to the consternation of readers throughout the
nation.
Reason for last week’s non-publication was the de
sire of the management to give the staff a well-earned
holiday vacation. In the last-minute rush to publish
the Christmas issue, however, failure to make public
note of the holiday vacation plan was overlooked.
Inquiries as to the why-fores of last week's failure j
to publish were received as far notrh as Connecticut;
south as Florida and west as Arizona, indicating that ■
“North Carolina’s Leading Weekly” is sorely missed,
even though if it is for only one week in eleven years, !
