Ten staring, vacant store win
dows—all in one building on a
main street—would be enough to
discourage the business people of
any community, especially with
Christmas shoppers walking past
them all day long.
Yet that’s what the Southern
Pines business section faced with
the former Patch Department
Store building, now owned by a
new corporation that is attempt
ing to find a tenant for the struc
ture.
Most local business people have
enough faith in the future of this
community to think that the for
mer Patch building will not be
empty long—yet even some of
the strongest rooters for Southern
Pines were discouraged as they
looked at the empty building.
Then the new owners, through
one of the corporation’s officers
Garland McPherson, offered to
make the windows available free
of charge to local businesses or
organizations for holiday exhib
its. In no time, all 10 of the win
dows were accounted for, inclu
ding one window, nearest the
Broad St.-New Hampshire Ave.
corner, retained by the owners
for broadcasting Christmas mu
sic. The window itself was dress
ed up with a decoration that
looks like a stained glass window
depicting a scene of a piper cell
ist and singing children. Music
from this window has been en
livening the business section this
Week.
The other window exhibits,
starting on Broad St. and running
around the comer, west on New
Hampshire, are:
A warm and cozy living room
corner arranged by Colonial Fur
niture Co., with modern chests,
an old-fashioned rocker, an up

on the wall add spots of color to

SPHS Boys Win
Sixth in Row,
Beat Cameron
By RONALD McCRIMMON
The Southern Pines boys con
tinued on their winning streak
by defeating Cameron 60-44, and
stretching their record to 6-0, last
night.
The local girls won their third
game of the season as they de
feated the Cameron girls, 45-36.
The g'.rls led the entire game.
Cameron 'offered only one threat
in the third quarter to overcome
the lead.
Beggy Worth was high scorer
of the game with 25 for Southern
Pines. Joan Grover had 13, Susan
Huntley 7, and Brenda Watkins
played. The guards were Clara
Barper, Belinda Michael. Janie
Gehweilder, and Ann Niles.
Cameron was led by Surey
with 16 points. Southern 10, Till
•man 5, and Smith 5. The guards
were Harris, Pollard, and Coley.
The Southern Pines boys trail
ed the first half, but came back
in the second and outscored Cam
eron 15 points.
Harold Williford led the locals
with 24 points. Others scoring-
Dick Seymour 7, Eddie McKenzie
11, Wally Wallace 8, and Johnny

side, casting a shadow across the
chimney wall.
Above the fireplace at the
other end is a wreath set off
with a wide red ribbon. On a low
table in front of this fireplace is
a srrall tree decorated with color
ed lights.
Over the archway opposite the
front door, leading to the book
room at the rear are large sprays
of evergreens from which hang
fastened with gold ribbon, two
geld hoops that are linked toget
her to form the outlines of a
sphere.
Red candles and greens decorate
the sills of windows around the
building.
, . , .— — ’■ uigan pipes
which, in turn, has a background
ox snowy greenery in which little
golden angel figures have been
placed.
Going around the corner, the
first window on New Hampshire
was ta)cen by Welch’s Gift Shop.
Displayed against a gold paper
backdrop are many gift items A
long rope of Holly down one side
qf the window, at the front, adds
another Christmas touch.
Next comes a large window tak
en jointly by the Allie McIntosh
Antique Shop and Henry H. Tur
ner, photographer and picture
framer, whose shops adjoin also
on S. W. Broad St. In the back
ground are hung an oil portraii
by Beth Turner, Mr. Turner’s
daughter, and an old print from
Miss McIntosh’s shop. There is a
pair of antique candlesticks, an
old china platter, a framed stain
ed glass design and a color photo.
Picture framing and artist’s ma
terials are displayed.
Piedmont Aviation, the com
pany that serves Pinehurst-South-
ern Pines Airport, has the next
window, dominated by a large
map of the company’s whole sys
tem. There are color photos of
one of Piedmont’s F-27 Pacemak
er turbo-prop planes in flight and
a display of timetables and other
company brochures.
The Southern Pines Informa
tion Center window comes next,
displaying many photos and post
cards of scenes in this area, along
with maps, brochures, informa
tion sheets and other material on
Southern Pines, the Sandhills and
the entire state.
A colorful, lively poster featur
ing this year’s theme for the na
tion-wide sale of'Christmas seals
(“Protect the family circle”) is
featured in the window decora
ted for the Moore County Tu
berculosis Association. Below the
poster, gnome-like figures are
placed around a small translucent
white plastic tree, decorated with
many tiny ornaments.
To set off a framed copy of
their charter, the Southern Pines
Board of Realtors has placed in
Its window sprays of red berries
and a white merry-go-round con
trivance in which white deer take
the place of the usual horses on
which children ride. Sprays ol
cedar surround the framed char
ter of the organization.
Tots’ Toggery has the last win
dow at the west end of the build
ing. Prominent in the display of
garments and play things for in
fants are two locally manufactur
ed items—a baby bath and a high
chair, both constructed of metal
and plastic and made at the Trim
ble Products, Inc., plant here.
After seeing the exhibits, some
folks have asked: why not do this
wtih all vacant store windows in
town, until the buildings have
Page TWENTY-ONE
tenants? The suggestion has
merit, for obvious reasons.
Especially at this Christmas
season, the window decorations
described have added warmth,
brightness and even mu.5ic to the
downtown scenq, a notable con
trast to the darkened vacant spots
that would otherwise have been
there.

Theatre-in-Pines Commended For Play
But Lack of Support by Public Felt

Yule Message
From Clergyman
Received Here
Friends here have received
Rev. A. R. Shelander
ot Cambridge, Mass.—a retired
clergyman who spent a winter in
Southern Pines several years ago
—his customary inspirational
Christmas greeting.
Titled, “The Way to Peace on
Earth,” a copy of the greeting
was made available to The Pilot
It reads:
“Everyone has experienced the
" y^^'yth and the light which come
and Smith 5. The guards to us from the sun: this experience
arri.q. PolGrH jg basic to our knowledge of the
material universe. Similarly, we
have experienced the warmth of
love and the light of truth which
come to us, not from the sun, but
Trom the very center of Being:
this experience is basic to our
knowledge of things spiritual.
Jesus of Nazareth, the anniver
sary of whose birth we comme
morate at Christmas time, made
the great descovery that ‘God is
love, and that ‘if we love one
another, God dwells in us, and
His love is perfected in us.’ It
is in virtue of this discovery, and
the use to which he put it, that
Jesus is called: ‘the first man in
a new order of life’ — ‘the second
Adam’ _ ‘the son of God.’
“In a nrofound' sense, love is
the life of men and nations, and
truth is their guilding star. If all
human beings were honest, that
IS, were recentive to truth, and
had good will in their hearts, that
IS, were recentive to love, this
world would be exactlv what is
meant bv heaven, both in this
state of being and the next.
“The mission of the church is
to coeauer ‘each individual heart
• . . leaving there a garrison of
truth and love’.”'
Reports on games of Friday
and Tuesday nights are in an
other story in today's Pilot,
Electric trains should be set un
away from the Christmas tree.
A spark from the train could ig
nite dry pine needles.
Diming the first two nights the
audiences were scarcely three or
four times larger than the cast of
amateurs from Southern Pin^s
Pinehurst and Fort Bragg.
But those few had a fine tjme,
showing their appreciation with
applause amounting to an ova
tion.
Conflicts inevitable at this time
of year could hardly be blamed
for the scanty audiences. Tne
play—leisurely paced, subtle in
wit and message, dependent on
characterization for its punch—is
one of intellectual rather than
mass appeal.
Yet the nine amateur players
directed by Richard Castle, han
dled it well and the characters
stood forth distinctly—particular
ly the one who wasn’t there, the
artist Christopher Bean, whose
posthumous fame caused all the
ruckus.
The plot brought crooks to a tiny
New England village to secure,
by fair or foul means, paintings
left by Bean with the family with
whom he had lived in obscurity
who thought of him only as , a’
mild nut. One thought of him
with love—Abby the maid. But
Abby got rough handling in the
melee.
The reactions of a respected vil-1
lage doctor and his family under 1
temptation’s mounting pressures '
constitute a caustic comment on
human weakness. But perhaps not
SO caustic, for in the end it is
Abby s unwavering love which
triumphs.
Jere Gilbert, actually a hand
some young woman, effectively
played the miserable, pushed-
around and stringy-haired Abby
except perhaps for a too-casual
handling of her big scene. Doug
las Runnels as the tormented Dr
Haggett and Patti Frantz as his
wife, whose respectability col
lapsed in the glitter of sudden
gold, gave excellent portrayals
as did Glenda Martin as theii’
greedy daughter Susan. Kay
Brezinsky as their other daughter
and Ellis Taylor as her artist"
beau, filled well the more stereo-
typjied roles of the young lovers
with problems.
Honors for most colorful char
acters, livening things up when
ever they were onstage, • go to
Tom Connolly and Karl Stuart
as the wily crooks determined to
secure through any means the
lost treasure trove; also to Doug
las Kelly, who in his first appear-
lance on any stage, as a distin
guished art critic, gave perhaps
the smoothest characterization of
them all.
Karl Stuart’s setting was su
perb. The production benefited
in many ways from the help of a
real “pro,” Gene Lafferty, of the
Pinehurst Playhouse, who just
happened to be around at the
time and lent a hand.
Theatre-in-the-Pines deserves
commendation for its work, and
more support than it received this
time. It also needs a strong tick
et-selling committee.
