purchase of a bond.
The Bolivia business establishment of W. A. Kopp was under
going expansion; Mrs. Dallas Piggot had supervised the recent
Woman’s Club musical-social; four new cinderblock homes were
being constructed between Southport and Shallotte; Lt. Odell
William son had received the Oak Leaf Cluster for outstanding
performance with his Frence-based infantry outfit; and our edi
torial writer had opined that Hitler was dead.
It was November 23, 1949, and a shrimp trawler (small) had
been gutted by fire in Southport harbor Sunday morning. The
Baptist State Convention had established the fact that Ft. Cas
well would be a religious retreat; Mr. and Mrs. Fred Willing
were in New York; and Cherry McDonald, a horse well-known
around town, had again made Not Exactly.
Incidentally, the writer of that column had had quite a day
on the telephone lines recently. M. W. Lindner had called The
Pilot offices from Long Island, George Rappleyea from New
Orleans and L. T. Yaskell from New Jersey. The Rovin’ Reporter
was mulling over the rumor that a club interested in developing
Bald Head Island had been formed in Charlotte; Brunswick
County Training School was to field two good basketball squads;
and bird season started tomorrow.
It was November 24, 1954, and the Thompson fuel dock was
back in operation. The latest was the third time in thirty y;ars
that Mr. Rob had been upset by foul weather, and once agair he
had rebuilt. Mr. and Mrs. Bryant Potter had claimed for them
selves a wooden tray which had washed up in their front jard
during Hazel. The vessel was labeled “made in Haiti”, and folks
were wondering if it were possible . . . Mrs. E. B. Brunson had
announced that Christmas Seals were now on sale; Capt, How
ard Victor had left for Florida waters; and Capt. A. Martin had
purchased the cruiser Jim-Jet in hopes of fishing her the rext
season.
1116 engagement of Alberta Galloway to Robert Willing had
been announced; Methodist women of Southport were planning a
bazaar; our Not Exactly editor had been sold on mechanization
when it comes to dogging holes in the ground; William Wamett
had gone dibs on some pogie roe with that same writer; and
there were an awful lot of small boats advertised “found” in the
classifieds.
