Interested Here
Family Moves To Miami,
Fla., But Week-End Trip
To Long Beach Reveals
Continued Local Interest
With both their beautiful home,
its furnishings and their novelty
store swept away in the October
storm, Mr. and Mrs. Phil King,
two of the biggest boosters for
development at Long Beach, de
cided to move to Miami, Fla.,
and start afreash there where
they had some interests.
They have purchased a new
home and like everything, but
they still miss Long Beach, some
thing that they had more or less
anticipated. King retained his
building lots at Long Beach when
the couple left here, and they
expressed the hope that they
might return to Long Beach some
day.
That hope may be realized
sooner than was first expected.
King came up from Miami this
past week end and was amazed
at the wonderful rebuilding that
has been carried on by a lot of
courageous folks, "if is simply
wonderful to see the come-back,”
he said.
He stated he and the family
will be back in the fall for at
least a visit and that he hoped to
be back in the rental and real
estate business at Long Beach
next spring.

months ago to accept a similar
position in Onslow. At the office
there he has nine workers under

harder.
