SANDHILLS
(Continued from page 1)
Healy and George D. Leonard,
Jr., representing real estate inter
ests; Miss Alice Baxter, Chamber
cf Commerce secretary, and Mrs.
Valerie Nicholson, C. of C. pub
licity chairman; Harold Collins,
department store executive and
local golfer, and Cad Benedict,
Pilot news editor. Harry K.
Smyth, Chamber cf Commerce,
president, was unable to attend.
Mayor Gilmore said he had word
from Richard Tufts of Pinehurst,
Inc., that the project to present
the merits of Southern Pines and
the Sandhills as PGA headquar
ters had his full cooperation.
Excessive cost of operating the
headquarters office in Chicago—
where it is reported the Organi
zation is paying nearly $8,000 per
year rent for 1,989 sq. ft. of floor
space—was named by Moffitt,
said Gilmore, as the number one
reason for wanting to move. It
was also ‘reported that sentiment
favors moving to a much smaller
community to cut costs and for
other reasons. Gilmore said he
pointed out to Moffitt in a tele
phone conversation Tuesday that
moving to any good sized city
would bring up similar problems.
(Communities mentioned as un
der consideration for PGA head
quarters, or as seeking the office,
are Florence, S. C., Greensboro^
Dayton, Ohio, and Denver, Colo'
Gilmore quoted Moffitt as say
ing that the office needs at least
50 per cent more floor space than
it has now. A long list of specific
auestions about facilities here
was submitted. Answers to these
auestions are now being prepared
through cooperation of commit
tee members, coordinated by the
Chamber of Commerce.
'The golfing background of the
FandhiWs, the all-year golf climate
and the, proximity of outstanding
courses were cited by Gilmore as
offering a prime inducement to
the PGA officials to locate here.
The Sandhills group plans to
send a delegation to Detroit
where the annual PGA tourna
ment will be played at the Mead-
owbrOok Country Club, July 20-
27, during which period the or
ganization’s executive committee
will take up the matter of moving
the Chicago headquarters and
tentatively pick a new site.
Plans were made Tuesday to
arm the local group with full_ in
