found out her late husband left
most of his money to someone

the salesman, “but you ordered
the stone to read ‘Rest In Peace’
and it can’t be changed now.”
“Well then” said the widow,

Leland Wins

FAISON —Coach Tom
Langdon’s Leland Tigers gained
a berth in the North Carolina
High School Athletic
Association District II, Class A
Tournament beginning at North
Duplin gym the first week in
March, by defeating Clements,
62-55, in a sudden-death playoff
here, Saturday night.
It was “sudden” to Leiand,
too, for the Tigers didn’t know
about it until late in the
week—that they’d have to meet
the Clements club to get to
become Brunswick County’s
second representative in the
District II tourney. Waccamaw
has already clinched the No. 1
Brunswick spot by posting a
12-0 Lower Cape Fear
Conference record for its third
straight regular season crown.
Leland will now meet White
Oak in the Tuesday night, March
3, round of the District II “A”
event here, in the 7 p.m. game.
The Tigers are playing in the
Lower Cape Fear Conference
Tournament at Lake Waccamaw
and Wilmington, this week.
In the sudden-death game
here, Saturday, Norman Willis
popped in 16 points, David
Shew 14, Elmer Beatty 11, John
