SAM C. MORRIS
Israel Mann, goodwill ambassador for
Raeford and Hoke County, was in the
office last week to give me tome
information concerning the annual
Kiwania Club Pancake Supper. The feed
will be held Thursday night, December 4,
1969 beginning at 5:00 P. M. at the W. T.
Gibson School Cafeteria. For the past few
years the aupper has been held at the J.
W. McLauchlin School Cafeteria but it
teems that the tablet and chairs at that
school are for the first grade students, so
the Khvanians felt it would be best to
change the location.
Mr. Mann stated that this was the ISth
Pancake Supper put on by the Kiwanis
Club. It all started back in 19SS and he
has had a great deal to do with the
success of the suppers. The money raised
at these feeds is used by the club for civic
projects, according to Israel, and a list of
these will be forthcoming in a more
detailed write up concerning the feed.
The editor and Israel were discussing
about the use of sausage at the feed and
Israel had the following to say. He said
when he called up the Jesse Jones Sausage
Company one year that he was doing
everything in his power to get the sausage
very cheap. Israel told the man that it was
the best sausage and seasoned to
perfection. Israel says the man wanted to
know how he knew when he couldn't eat
sausage. He got the sausage for the feed,
anyway.
A note signed "A Friend" informs us
of a Hoke County soldier in Vietnam. He
is William A. Conoly and is stationed at
Bien Hot. The writer states that with
Christmas coming soon that she knows
this soldier would appreciate a note from
Hoke County folks. If you have extra
Christmas cards be sure to send some to
the men in the service. We know from
experience that mail it i morale booster
when you are in the service away from
home.
The address of thei soldier is:

Younger Snead, Jr. Iiad the program at
the meeting of the Raeford Kiwanis Club
last Thursday night. He had the
Scoutmaster of the -Kiwanis sponsored
troop and the assistant scoutmaster and
one of the scouts to give the program.
The Scoutmaster it George Ashley, Jr.,
the Assistant, Bob Averette and the Scout
was Lee Gillis. Ashley and Gillis told of
their trip during the summer to the Scout
Jamboree in Idaho and Averette told of
the camping trip tlie boys took the week
end of the wind storm. The program was
well received and we think everyone
should appreciate the time taken by
certain men to keep the scout movement
going in Hoke County. The Hoke United
Fund raises the money for the scout
troops in Hoke County.
During the program last week at the
Kiwanis Club the Lt. Gov. of the district
made a visit. He is Ike O'Hanlon, former
Cumberland County Representative to
the General Assembly. Most of his
comments were about a baseball game
that took place here about 1928 between
Fayetteville and Raeford High Schools. It
teems that Dunk McNeill was pitching for
Raeford and Ike for Fayetteville. Ike said
he doted his eyes and hit one of Dunk's
pitches out the playing area, no fences in
thote days, into the cemetery. That lke't
story. He did say Raeford won the game
4-2.
If my memory serves me right I believe
Fayetteville beat Raeford 6 -0 In football
in 1920 or 1921 and went on to win the
State Championship. After that
Fayetteville High didn't win anotlier
sports event from Raeford until 19J5. So
maybe Ike thould remember closing hit
eyet and hitting a home run.
Horace Stogncr, Jr. who lias two tours
of duty in Vietnam, was by the office
Tuesday and laid that people who want
to tend Christmas parcel packages to the
troop in Vietnam and want to make sure
they are prepared properly sliould
contact Jum and he would be glad to
help. Stogner said that if they were
Incorrectly addressed tlie men at the pott
office would open them, take what they
wanted from the parcels and pitch the
other in a trash dump. So be sure to
contact him if vou need any assistance.
