After their week of training the men sent down for training will remain through the con tests. They then go to the interna tional meet.

Butler Telegraph Tuesday morning noti fied me that John Chilcott had died the day before at Johns-Hopkins hos pital in Baltimore and that funeral services would follow at his old home in Brookville, Pennsylvania. From three angles John Chilcott was interesting to me. He was a sub stantial citizen of Southern Pines, coming here several years ago to make his home. During his residence he built two houses, and occupied l oth of the:n, building the second af ter selling the first. He left his home a few week ago to go to Baltimore to the hospital, where an operation was decided on, although not with much hope, but as being the one thing that might be successful in extending his life. His careful demeanor and his sound sense and upright character made friends in the Sandhills, for he and his wife were two sterling people. Of the other two things that ap pealed to me one was his rise from Many Churches Send Workers to Conference Splendid Response Being Made to Invitation of County Sun day School Assciation Dr. Turck Expresses Dentists Have Floor Pleasure in Section at Kiwanis Meeting Southern Pines and Pinehurst now have direct connection by telephone with New York.
