Golf Professional Employed
At Boiling Springs Course
Marvin Watson, former Bruns
wick County resident and newly
assigned golf professional at Boil
ing Spring Lakes, will begin his
duties at the nearby resort de
velopment Monday. Watson, pres
ently assistant pro of the Muni
cipal Golf Course in Wilmington,
was introduced to members of the
press and local golfing enthusiasts
earlier this week.
The personable young golfer,
who comes to his new position
highly recommended, said his im
mediate duties will be to “shape
up and finalize’’ work on the
Boiling Spring Lakes course. He
announced that golf lessons will
begin as soon as the new course
is ready for play.
Watson is the winner of several
Carolina Golf Association tourna
ments, and won second-place in
the Little Azalea Festival Open
in 1960. He said his brightest
moments in golfing have been
the four aces, or holes-in-one, he
has shot. Three of these shots,
considered to be the most highly
prized goal of most golfers, oc
curred last year.
In commenting on his new
duties, Watson said that he was
looking forward to beginning
work at Boiling Spring Lakes.
He declared that the new course
will be one of the finest in this
area, and that it should develop
into one of the state's outstand
ing courses.
Work on completing the course

This is Public Business
Several weeks ago if was advertised in the newspaper that the
Board of Education would open sealed bids on April 10 for the addition
of Classroom Space at Southport High School; a Toilet Addition to Bo
livia High School; Addition of Classroom Space at Leland High School;
Addition to Classroom Space and Sewage Treatment Plant at Shallotte
High School.
I suppose that bids were received, that they were opened and that
possibly contracts were awarded. What I would like to know is who
made the bids? How much did they come to? And, most important,
when will work begin?
The bills will be paid with tax money, and I think that the taxpay
ers deserve to know the answers to these questions.
If I am nominated and appointed to serve on the Board of Edu
cation as representative from the Southport School District, I will make
it my business to see that the citizens and taxpayers are informed of
the expenditures as well as of the needs for the Public Schools of Bruns
wick County.

Sails Open Here
Sunday Against
Hampstead Nine
By FOXY HOWARD
The Cape Fear League, eight
teams strong this year, will begin
official play Sunday afternoon
with the opening game scheduled
at Southportis Taylor Field be
tween the Southport Sails and
the Hampstead entry. Game time
is 3 o’clock and Bobby McKeith
an has been named by Manager
Preston Bryant as the opening
day hurler.
With a strong high school team
from which to draw their re
serves, the Sails look good in the
pre-season work outs. Last year
Southport took their first six
games before dropping one to
South Wilmington. This season
they hope to go even further be
fore they hit the losing bracket.
All of the players on the Sails
roster this year live in Southport
as Manager Bryant feels that it
was unnecessary to draw on out
of-town talent to field a winning
team. A lot like Casey Stengel,
Manager Bryant refers to his
players as the “fellers” and is
quick to point out the stronger
points of each. He has a lot of
baseball savvy and does not hesi
tate to shuffle his line-up to fit
the opposing pitcher's weaknesses.
With a roster two and three deep
at almost every position the fans
in Southport can expect to see a
lot of good baseball at Taylor
Field on Sunday afternoons this
summer.
The line-up for this Sunday
afternoon will probably be Ron
Allen or Foxy Howard at second
base, Wayne Ludlum at first, Mc
Keithan on the mound, John Carr
Davis catching, Agnew Fulcher
at third, Paul Cochran holding
down the shortstop position and
Jerry Spencer, Gene Russ and
Ronnie Hood in the outfield.
The infield reserves include
Dick Brendle, Bobby Spencer and
Leonard Lewis. Gehrig Spencer is
on tap for outfield duty; and
Jerry Wayne Spencer can take
over behind the plate at any
time. When Doug Watts gets
home from his teaching job man- |
ager Bryant will have additional
talent for that position. The Sails
second game will be a return
match with Hampstead at the
latter's home field on Sunday,
May 20th.
Manager Bryant is no novice
at the game of baseball. He play
ed for a number of years in the
old Wilmington City League for
such teams as the Atlantic Coast
Line, the Wilmington Light In
fantry, and the Winter Park
nines. He once held down the
catching duties for the strong
U. S. Dredge “Comstock” team
playing, and whipping, some of
the toughest Army Engineer
teams in the country. Bryant re
cently retired from the Army
Corp of Engineers, but has not
retired from the game of base
ball.
At a recent meeting of Cape
i Fear League Managers and Offi
cials it was decided to have the
annual All-Star Game in South
port this year. The All-Star Game
is customarily played on the 4th
of July with the first place team
playing against the standout
players from the other seven en
tries. Regular league play will
end in early August after each:
team has played fourteen games,
seven at home and seven or. the
road. In addition to the regularly
scheduled league games the Sails
plan to play several exhibition
games at Taylor Field against
j other semi-pro teams in the area
I such as Whiteville, Riegelwood
and possibly some service teams.

r
If anyone wants to know why I am running for the
Board of Education, the above picture shows four of
the best reasons I know. My wife and I have two sons
and two daughters. Three are now in school, and we
hope for dll of them to receive an education in the
public schools of Brunswick county. I feel like it is my
duty to help raise the standards of our schools to the
point where our students can enter any college in the
country and hold their own in competition with boys
and girls from schools in any other area.
Sell At Home — Trade At Home
For County Commissioner
I think that with proper business manage
ment it will be possible to improve and expand
services now provided by Brunswick County with
out having to raise the tax rate.
Before the revaluation program, our tax val
uation was 15-milliori dollars. Now it is more than
30-million. I understand that between 1 -million
and 2-million in valuation will'be added from this
year’s listing.
If we insist upon edging up on the tax rate,
we will drive away the out-of-county investors
and builders who are helping to make Brunswick
one of North Carolina’s fastest growing counties.

For Judge Recorders Court Brunswick County
Not being a Politician or having ever run for office I was told I
would get my eyes opened. In traveling through the county seeking
votes it is unbelievable the Gossip I hear about some of those formerly
holding office, unethical violations, illegal acts, paticularly taking
bribes. If I had been in office and had taken bribes, I not only would
not run again but would move to another State. Some Candidates run
on Previous Records in office, others run on what they promise to do if
elected, I am one of the latter, and respectfully ask for your vote.
