1^. IPILOT Wednesday, April 1, 1981 Southern Pines, *—" North Carolina Mary Evelyn de Nissoff PINEHURST NEWS Telephone 295-6067 Page i-c Salesman Heard Of Bloodmobile And Sought Out SCC To Givo One of the volunteers for the Bloodmobile’s visit March 23 at Sandhills Community College passed on a really encouraging story about one of the 100 plus donors-it was a very good day for collections. The volunteer noticed that the 100th donor was a young man with a Raleigh address listed on 'his card. She asked him if he commuted to the College. The donor, who lives in Cary, said “no,” he was a salesman who found it difficult to give blood at his home because he was usually on the road when the Bloodmobile visited. Last Monday, he said, he was riding along with his radio going and heard that the Bloodmobile was to be that day at Sandhills. He took the trouble first, to find the college, and second, to locate the Bloodmobile on the campus. Hot Item Someone passed on to us a story from a recent National Enquirer about the “Hush-Hush Romance” between Loretta Swit of “MASH” enjoying a Mexican “honeymoon paradise with a dashing hotel executive-who’s about 10 years her junior.” The new man in her life, ac cording to the Enquirer, is Vincent Carrozza, 31, described as “a suave six-footer with short Teeing Off with de Nissoff Pine Crest Inn in (he Middle of Pinehurst • Fresh Seafood • Prime Beef • Homemade Pastries JAZZJAZZ JAZZ Foregone Conclusion 8 to 12 Fri' day, April 3.

Pinehurst Reservations Preferred 295-6121 SHi blond hair.” There’s a picture ac companying the story, describing him as “a wealthy young hotel executive.” Vince Carrozza, we were reminded, was assistant to former Pinehurst Hotel and Country Club general manager Al Stratta in 1976 and for a few months after Stratta’s resignation, served as acting manager. He is actually five feet, six inches tall, we were also told. Allegedly (we want to be very careful not to risk a lawsuit, at second hand, like the Enquirer), the two met when Loretta was taking a vacation in Acapulco where Carrozza is general manager of the Acapulco Princess Hotel. The actress, of course, declined comment about her romance to the Enquirer’s reporter but admitted they had dined together. Naturally, a hotel employe snitched on the couple, saying he had seen them holding hands affectionately and kissing. Angel Revisited Two (diotos on this page show one of the first “wild animals” acquired by the North Carolina Zoo-a wolf named Angel. Angel was bom in a zoo in the McKenzie River Valley in the Northwest Territory of Canada. She was one of the pups chosen as “pick of the litter,” and sent to Miami, Fla., to a young man who sold these registered animals as pets. In 1974, at the age of two, Angel was bought from the deder by my son, Boris, who took her home to Boca Raton, where she occupied a pen when she wasn’t accompanying her master on long walks. In September of that year, Boris brought Angel, by plane to North Carolina, tethered her in our backyard, and took her for walks in the woods bordering the No. 2 golf course, to the great astonishment of those golfers who glimpsed that silvery pelt and those long, dangerous- looking green eyes. Before returning to Florida, Boris sold Angel to Dr. Clement R. Monroe, one of the founders and a charter director of the NC Zoo, which was then only in the beginning stages of develop ment. So Angel became one of the first inhabitants of the facility. Two weeks ago, on the “family membership” I sent him for his birthday, Boris and his family visited the Zoo at Purgatory Mountain, and became per turbed about her present lifestyle. He wrote: “We saw Angel. I can’t believe it. The last time I was up there (four years ago), she and the black were stuck in two concrete runs. Well, now they are in one. She’s not even part of the regular zoo now. “All the animals in her section can be seen free if there is bad weather and people don’t want to walk around ‘Africa.’ The place is huge and she and that black have been stuck in that concrete run for six or seven years, pacing back and forth...The only reason I let the place have her is because she was supposed to have plenty of room. She’s oh Wrth control because there’s no space for pups.” It is our understanding that National Headquarters of the Humane Society of the US has been informed about this par ticular case, so we hope it will be possible for Angel and her black friend to get out into the air and sunshine once again. Not Football In last week’s column it was stated that Pat Stratton’s father. Col. Donald Herring, was a football coach. This was in error. Col. Herring graduated from Princeton College, Oxford, England, and lived for years at Princeton, N.J. He was a top rugby player and wrestler but not a football coach. He served in World Wars I and II, and played golf at Pinehurst 60 years ago. He had a house in Southern Pines and in Princeton, N.J. “Cattistock,” the Stratton residence, was located on the old Capital Highway between (Continued on Page 2C) Announces Holly Pines 2 & 3 BR Townhouses $48,500-58,500 At Pinehurst 2 & 3 BR Duplexes $68,500-78,500 Located On 22 Pine Studded Acres On Route 5-Ready For Late 1981 Sum mer Delivery.

Recreation Board Agrees To Extension Of Terms The board of directors of the Community Recreation Associa tion held its combined annual- monthly directors’ meeting last Thursday in Pinehurst. On the agenda were the finan cial reoprt, proposed changes in the constitution and by-laws, election of officers and Associa tion business. Treasurer Diana Belvin said it was difficult to provide an ac curate financial report because of the evolving working relation ship with the new Village Council. With this in mind, it was agreed that directors’ terms would be ex tended for one year, in order to help maintain a sense of continui ty. The problems surround the treasurer’s inability to obtain in formation pertinent to Associa tion’s expenditures from the Village. Directors present at the meeting were Doris Andrews, Bob Alley, Ben Pate, Wade Garner, Diana Belvin and Bob Rufa. Absent was Bob Viall, who has requested that a replacement be found for him. The following officers were asked to extend their terms: Doris Andrews, Chairman; Wade Gamer, Vice- Chairman; and Diana Belvin, Treasurer. All agreed. New member Bob Rufa, who was named to replace Tara Dowd, was asked to serve as Secretary. Among items discussed was the need to fill the position of Sum mer Recreation Director. Ap plications for this position will be taken April 15, and anyone in terested should drop a note to the Association at Box 505, Pinehurst, or contact one of the Directors. The Association said it also wishes to remind the community that the Recreation Field in Pinehurst is available for use by individuals and organizations on a rental basis. Those interested can obtain rates and rules gover ning use by contacting the board. Finally, it was restated at the meeting that the policy of the Recreation Association is to keep the main Recreation Field open to the general public on Sundays and not have its use monopolized by organized activities such as team practices or games between standing teams. Therefore, this coming Sunday, April 5 has been designated as an official open play day for members of the com munity. All individuals and families interested in supporting their Recreation Association were urged to come to the Rec Field and play. There will be no organized events, and the field inay be used for any legitimate, spontaneous recreational activi ty. Volunteers are also invited to help clean up the field at this time. The next Board of Directors meeting will be held Wednesday, Apr. 8 at 5 p.m. at the Recreation Field. your maitetplacel ANGEL AND FRIENDS — One of the first animals acquired at the North Carolina Zoo at Asheboro was Angel, shown as a young animal with her owner, Boris de Nissoff in September, 1974. Now a mature animal, she was photographed two weeks ago by Boris in the concrete runway she inhabits with the male black.

If you are on the verge of purchasing property, it is a good idea to first be satisfied that the deed restrictions or conditions that go with the property will not prevent you from using it as you have planned. You might find that they prevent you from attaching a television antenna to your roof, or that you can not plant a tree or paint your house without the permission of an architectural committee. There are many items that may appear in the deed restrictions that can be very beneficial to you in that they may help to maintain the value of the property, then again, you may not like some of the conditions or restrictions-if there are any. From the point of view of the buyer, if there are any deed restrictions, they should be spelled out. If you can live with them, fine. H not, there is always a chance they can be negotiated out of the deed. ☆ ☆☆ If there is anything we can do to help you in the field of real estate, please call or drop in at Gouger, O’Neal & Saunders, Realtors.
