Waccamaw Gridders Look j For Improvement In 1961 ASH—Coach Tommy Shutt’s 1961 Waccamaw High School Eagles are looking only one way as the opening of the new grid season approaches—upward. The Eagles can move only up ward, since they failed to win a game during the 1960 campaign. FICKLE? ME? ' YOU SEE I ALWAYS GET MY PRESCRIPTIONS FILLED AT WATSON'S , PHARMACY But, they showed improvement last year over the year before, when they failed to score. Shutt, an East Carolina College graduate, has been working hard with his aspirants since Aug. 15 and feels he is ready for the schedule opener at Bolivia—a non conference game—Friday at 7:30 p. m. The Eagles have seven return ing lettermen to help in Shutt’s quest for a better grid season this year. These include Eugene Inman, a speedy back who is looked to to tote much of the mail for the locals this season. Other offensive stars anticipated are Vernon Hughes, another good back here for his third season; and two let ter ends in Ronnie Hughes and Colin Kelly. All-Border Belt Conference Safetyman Earl Hughes, Guard C. C. Russ and End Don Hughes are looked upon as anchor-men in the Waccamaw defense. Main losses from the 1960 outfit were Jerry Smith, Danny Simmons and Charlie Smith. Others expected to help the Eagle cause on the gridiron this Fall are Newcomers Earl Smith, Danny Babson, Milton King, Bob by Babson, Melton Hughes, Sid ney Coleman, Bryan Smith and Freddie King.

ELLIS' SHOE CENTER House of Famous Brand Shoes Red Cross, Cobbies, Socialite, Joyce, Tweedies, DeLano—and Ladies’ Fashion Hats. “Columbus County’s Only Exclusive Ladies' Shoe Store" America’s Most Talked About ft Walked About Shoes Garden Time Last week X told the story of the Raleigh resident who bought a package of blueberries in an eastern Carolina county marked “Packaged by the New Jersey Blueberry Growers' Association.” I suggested that there was good reason for this label, that you i could also buy blueberries “Pack-1 aged by the North Carolina Blue berry Growers’ Association,” and promised to comment further on this problem. Briefly and objectively, here is the story. The blueberry industry was started in eastern North Carolina by New Jersey growers, who seized the opportunity of growing an “early" crop in this state and a later crop in New Jersey. All berries were marketed through the New Jersey Coop which strictly enforced the rules for grade, quality and packaging. Gale Harrison and H. G. Hunting ton were two of the pioneers in this field and other New Jersey growers joined in the enterprise. As our North Carolina growers became established in the indus try, some of them marketed their berries through the New Jersey Coop until another group was formed composed of North Caro On that same day Capt. H. A. Schmidt had Henry Gadge and party of Charlotte out aboard the Idle On III and caught 68 Span ish mackerel and blues. The Saturday trip for Capt. Hoyle Dosher aboard the Idle On IV was with Bain Scronce and party of Newton, and Scronce had the prize catch, a 6-ft., 3-in sail fish. The party also had 32 dolph in, 6 king mackerel and two bar racuda. Capt. Fred Fulford had a Satur day party aboard the Davis Bros. IV who brought in 10 Spanish mackerel, 14 dolphin and 10 king mackerel. E. W.

Southport for a few day’s relax ation with rod and reel, surf and ; sunshine, ran into a world of lina growers. The brand name for the North Carolina group is “Bonnie Blue" and for the New j Jersey group, “Tru-Blue.” If you buy the Bonnie Blue | brand they, will carry the North i Carolina label. If you buy the Tru- ! Blue brand they will bear the New Jersey label regardless of wheth er they are grown in North Caro lina or New Jersey. The blueberry industry in east ern North Carolina is a sizeable one. and growing. It would seem a splendid idea for all berries grown in North Carolina to be marketed under one brand name. This would lead to better organiz ed effort from the cooperative buying standpoint and would give greater competitive strength in the market places. Too, one organization would have a tendency to more ade quately promote and control the industry by centralizing thought, effort and attitudes toward a com mon objective. The blueberry industry is sure to expand in some of the western counties, if promoted along con servative lines, and there is no reason why one central marketing agency could not handle the en tire crop under one brand name. This would be a step forward and set an example for other com modity groups to follow. trouble near the close of his stay, i Barnett told Police Chief Her- 1 man Strong on Tuesday that he | had lost his wallet with every | penney he had in North Carolina reposing within. Barnett said the wallet contained $90 in currency, j plus a book of Travelers Checks. ! Strong reported that following a long-distance phone call to a i Northern bank, Barnett was em- i powered to write a check sizable enough to keep the vacationist in funds during the balance of his stay here, and insure his car ex penses home. Chief Strong appealed to anyone i finding the wallet to bring same j .0 the Southport Police Station,! where a reward awaits. Strong pointed out that important papers, i including driver's license, social i security card, etc., are not easily replaced, especially for one a long way from their home base. Barnett will remain in South port until Saturday, it was reveal ed. PEACOCK FUNERAL HOME 24-Hr,—AMBULANCE—24-Hr. SHALLOTTE, N. C.
