Local Team Is
League Runner-Up
As Raleigh Wins
A good crowd was on hand at
the municipal tennis courts Sat
urday afternoon to see the local
men’s tennis team make a valiant
try for the Eastern Carolina Lea
gue championship. They lost to
the Raleigh team, which played
brilliantly to take the title for the
fourth successive year, by a score
of 7 to 2.
At the close of the regular sea
son, the two teams were deadlock
ed for the top spot.
This was the first league series
in which the Southern Pines
teams, men and women, had play
ed. With the men’s team emerg
ing as runner-up, the women com-

piled a 6-0 record to clinch the
title in their division.
The men’s championship was to
have been played on a neutral
court, but the Raleigh team, mem
bers of which have played here in
several events during the past
year, indicated their liking for, ,
Southern Pines and its courts as

Through misinformation a cou
ple of weeks ago, we reported
Evelyn Deadwyler to have once
been the owner of Gallant Fox.
We have learned that for Evelyn
to have owned this magnificent
animal, who has long since gone
to horse heaven, would make her
quite an old lady, which she def
initely is not. Evelyn is a mem
ber of one of Kentucky’s bluest
families (blue grass, blue blood)
and the first woman to breed and
race her own horses. She owned
some, of Gallant Fox’s direct des
cendants, not the Fox himself.
We reported recently that new
resident Roy J. Hughes was toy
ing with the idea of raising citrus
fruit in this part of the state. His
ideas apparently materialize over
night—now he has showed us
limes grown on his farm in Chat
ham county. A small branch had
three or four-of them on it—real
limes, too; hard and green now,
but in about a month you can
make limeade out of them, he
says.
He’s going to try lemons, too,
and is confident of success. Cali
fornia—here we come!
Lucille Cox, member of a radio
family—likes to listen to the
newscasts and recently found her
self bothered about one war cor
respondent’s name.
She addressed a rhyming in
quiry on the subject to Lockwood
Doty, who calls in the NBC cor
respondents for their reports on
the “World News Roundup.” Her
query — and the answer — were
published a couple of weeks ago
in the Washington Post:
“The NBC Roundups are splen

Emcee Lockwood Doty’s name
is quite clear.
As is George Thomas Bolster,

While from London we hear Mr.
Ed Newman.
H. Cassidy bears a quite famous
name.
And David Anderson is all too
plain.

Nice comments on the cute pic
ture in last week’s Pilot, of the
Butler children riding their pony
Colonel which they bought with
their own earnings. . . Their
daddy informs us that the three

picture purposes only, as they
generally use a pony loaned them

For what many consider the out
standing air achievement of all
time has now been brought to the
screen in “The Big Lift,” filmed
in Berlin, starring Montgomery
Clift and Paul Douglas, and com
ing on Tuesday to the Sunrise
theatre.
That’ Twentieth Century-Fox,
producers of “The Big Lift,”
should think the Berlin Airlift
worthy of cinematic treatment
is not surprising. For although
history has been repeating itself
for thousands of years, nothing
quite like the airlift ever happen
ed before. The two and a quarter
million residents of the three
western-power sectors of Berlin,
cut off from their sources of sup
ply, were kept alive with goods
from the air for over 11 months,
from June, 1948, to May, 1949. With
an average of 1300 planes laden
with coal and food landing in
Berlin every day, the constant
droning overhead spelt life itself
to citizens of the German capitol.

“Broken Arrow,” continuing to
night (Friday) and Saturday with
a Satui;day matinee, starring
James Stewart, Debra Paget and
Jeff Chandler, is an unusual
Western, blessed with a multitude
of action, drama, ronaance, beauty
and an important theme.
One is hard put to think of a
previous film dealing with the
conflict between the Indians and
the white men that approaches
this in intelligence of approach,
dramatic power, and scenic de
lights, strikingly enhanced by
Technicolor. Based on the novel
“Blood Brother” by Elliot Arnold,
it takes a page from history for its
story of the efforts of a frontiers
man to bring an end to the bloody
battles between the Apaches and
the encroaching white men in Ari
zona.
Will Rogers, Jr., wired Twen
tieth Century-Fox congratulations
“on one of the greatest pictures
ever produced. . . As entertain
ment it is sheerest success. Your
studio has produced a lasting doc
ument, and every man, woman
and child in America can be
drawn to, and moved by, this
great American picture.”

The mark of production splen
dor shines throughout “The Black
Rose,” starring Tyrone Power and
introducing as his co-star the
adorable little French actress, Ce-
cile Aubrey. Under a global re
lease schedule, this two-hour
Technicolor spectacle, filmed in
England and North Africa, will
have premieres in 25 countries in
six continents during September
and October.
Here is a rousing, breathtaking
adventure-drama of medieval
times that will hold audiences
with its sweep, thrills, romance
and robust performances. Adapted
from Thomas B. Costain’s best
selling novel, its color, vast scale,
picturesque manners and costumes
will give audiences their money’s
worth in entertainment. It is a
strong attraction not only because
of the stars and the story, but also
because of its spectacle, color and
exotic adventure.
Coming Wednesday and Thurs
day, September 6-7, (no matinee)
is “Stella” starring Victor Mature,
Ann Sheridari, David Wayne, Lief
Erickson and a host of other com
edy stars. At this writing,
“Stella” is breaking all records at
its premiere in Chicago. This off-
the-beaten-path comedy combines
so adroitly the comic aspects and
dramatic situations involved in
'accidental djeath^: illegal burial
and mistaken identity, that it will
provide amusing entertainment
for any audience.
The answer: Leif Eid.
And we’re grateful to the radio
for straightening out another pro
nunciation, in the matter of which
we had frequently felt we were
swimming painfully upstream.
The LeJeune of Camp LeJeune is
pronounced in the French man
ner, not “Le June,” according to a
lady who knows — Miss Eugenia
D. LeJeune, after whose father the
great U. S. Marine base was
named.
This revelation came when a
Morehead City radio station began
mentioning the base on its station
breaks. No matter how the name
was pronounced, criticism poured
in. The situation was settled by a
letter from Miss LeJeune. She
informed the announcers that
anything you can do to correct the
erroneous pronunciation will be
greatly appreciated.
“I will endeavor to assist you to
the best of my ability, which is
rather difficult on paper . . . The
stress should be placed on the
first and second e’s, pronounced
as in maker and cinder, and the
soft j, thus: Lerzhern.”
Miss LeJeune is associated with
the Marine Corps schools, Quan-
tico, ,Va. Her father, Maj. Gen. The Berlin Airlift, which made
John A. LeJeune, served as 13th news headlines in 1948 and 1949,
commandant of the Marine Corps is making movie headines in 1950.
