Franklin and Meteorology
In 1775. when he left London to
return to an America that was pre
paring lor the Declaration f Inde
pendence, Franklin amused him
self during the voyage by testing
the temperature of the Gull
Stream as his ship psssed over It,
During the week cf April 38 to
May 2, while the' vessel travelled
along the eastern edge of , the
stream and then crossed it to odd
er water, he lowered his therm o
meteV trom two to four times each
day. He remarked that the water
of the stresrn did not sparkle in
the night, had its own color and
that there was more gujf weed in
It than hi the surrounding water.
He suggested that "A vessel from
Europe to North America may
shorten her passage by avoiding
to stem the stream. In which the
thermometer will he very useful;
and a vessel trom America to Eur
ope may do the same by the same
means of keeping in it".

Col. Mint Beid of Waynesville
was elected president of the Hay
wood County Duke Alumni Asso
ciation last Monday night at the
group's annual meeting in Canton.
He succeeds Tom Reeves of Can
ton, who presided over the dinner
meeting.
Dr. Carleton Bottoms -of Canton
was named vice president, Roslyn
Ray Johnson of Waynesville, secre
tary; and Mrs. Hilda Halliburton,
of Canton, -alumnae representative.
Approximately 50 members of
the Association and guests heard
.Clarence (Ace) Parker, Duke's All?
America back of the mid-'30's and
now Blue Devil' backneld coach,
make the principal address. -
He was introduced by another
Duke All-America, Bill Milner of
Waynesville, 'veteran lineman of
the Chicago Bears, whq attended
the event with his wife.
' "The Ace" following his address
showed the films of the Carolina
Duke game of 1949,' commenting
on the action, and re-running sev
eral of the beautifully-executed
plays. ;.:.v .
There were other Duke grads
there who were Blue Devil stars
in (tie seasons past and there
were also a former North Carolina,
football star ; and a .former Wake
Forest backneld ace, too. '
Among the ex . Dukes present
were Jack Alexander, curently ath
letic director for Ecuata Paper Co.
at Brevard whom Parker intro
duced as the player who beat Car
olina in 1935 when the Tar Heels
were headed for the Rose Bowl
with an undefeated, untied record.
There also was Coach Carleton
Weatherby of Waynesvllle's Moun
taineers who starred in the Duke
line in his undergraduate days in
the late '20's.
There was Dr. Tom Stringfield
of Waynesville, who starred for
three1 schools Carolina, Duke
(when it was Trinity), and Vander
bilt in the '90's. .
, The former North Carolina star
who attended the dinner was C. C.
Poindexter, ex-Waynesvllle coach
and now Canton High School ath
letic director.
. Back in the middle '20's before
the days of the two-platoton system
--Poindexter played in the Caro
lina line for 60 minutes of every
game on the schedule from the
time he entered as a freshman un
til he graduated.
The Wake Forest star was Don
Hipps, the Canton High School
football coach whose performances
as a blocking back were rated al
most equal 4o those' of the great
Nick Ognovich. ' .
. Poindexter drew genial laugh
ter , when he observed that never
as a player had he seen a Caro
lina team lose to Duke.
Parker replied by saying he had
been on Duke teams that beat Car
olina and Wake Forest both, but
that it was all right to see those
rivals win a few:
"It keeps the thing sociable," he
laughed. '
Football was in the -atmosphere,

ous meetings of State College and
Carolina grads.
The one note in common at these
three meetings had. been that,
though all were Interested in see
ing good football players come to
their respective schools, tfaey were
primarily interested in getting
those who ( were, Brst, good stu
dents. '
Reeves expressed this concern
for obtaining good students as well
as good athletes.
In his address, Parker with
tongue in cheek declared that the
football player's universal reputa
tion for "being dumb" was not Jus
tified: :-
"He has to work long and hard
on the practice Held, besides keep
ing up his studies.
"The football player isn't dumb.
The student who studies all the
time he's the one that's dumb."
He made references to current
relations between Duke and Caro
lina alumni; expressed regret over
phases of the feelings, and suggest
ed that they be improved.
Exactly what he suggested or
whether he suggested anything
seems (to have become a matter of
varied interpretation among some
of those who attended the event.
. Some had the impression they
heard him make a specific sugges
tion: Others deny he did. ,
Parker himself could not be
reached by phone yesterday for
confirmation or denial shortly be
fore this was written, though he
may since have made a positive
comment on the matter later.
The Ace had the audience with
him all the way. A great athlete
(he gained All-League honors time
after time when he was starring
for the professional Brooklyn (foot
ball) Dodgers, as well as making
All-America in his collegiate days),
he also proved a great sportsman,
His address, when It referred to
football, and later his commentary
on the film being shown was stud
ded with expressions of tribute to
Duke opponents and his own form
er opponents.
He Indicated Duke had the ma
terial for a better season next fall
(only three regulars will graduate
and the entire first-string defen
sive unit will be back).
During the showing of the Duke
Carolina .film, he expressed pride
n the performances of several
Blue Devirs-iBilly Cox, Tom Pow
ers, and others. But he also ex
pressed respect for several Caro
lina stars Charlie Justice's punt
ing and passing, Billy Hayes' line
plunging from the fullback spot,
and particularly the work of Art
Wiener, : Carolina's great end.
Wiener, he declaredwas as good
an end as he'd seen in either col
lege or pro football. He ran the
film back once to show Wiener's
almost miraculous catch of Jus
tice's pass that gave the Tar Heels
their first touchdown.
He ran it back again over an
other play that showed Wiener's
ability to change pace when he was
out far a pass, and catch the de
fender off balance. V

DALLAS William R.
Mackenzie, w h 0 h a s
through all the eras of golf, says
the present one is the stuff.
Mackenzie, a professional for
41 years, compares the golfers
of today with those when he first
broke in and finds much to be hap
py about.
Getting: Intoxicated back yon
der was an established ritual for
most players at a tournament
"They cot drunk each night and
they did It because each knew
that since his opponent was 'do
ing the same thin there would
be no advantage for anyone,"
Mackenzie says.
Purses were not big enough to
worry about and in the second
place there were four country
clubs for each professional and if
his club didn't like his actions he
would move on without batting an
eye, the veteran Dallas Country
Club pro explains.
"If those guys hadn't been play-J.
ing golf liquor would have killed
them," he grins. "They could work
away the effects by playing 36
holes of golf a day."
Tournaments paid only about
$1,000 then with $500 to the tet
place winner. Today first place in
any tournament draws more than
$1,000. And there are many more
tournaments.
Mackenzie figures the ' n e w
order in golf really started when
Francis Oulmet, a youngster, beat
the great Harry Vardon and Ted
Ray in the 1913 National 6pen.
That's When the youngster
started thinking about golf,"
Mackenzie declares. "Until then
it Was considered an old man's
game." .
Today there are free children's
classes at country clubs like
the Dallas layout. There are
good golfers everywhere you go.
Mackenzie was born at "Mont
rose, Scotland, and became a pro
t the are of 19. lie came to
America In 1909 and got his first
