..Around Town (Continued from page 1A) us to the tournament. They were not needed so we had to lug them around with us for the SVi hours I we were there. The play on Friday was compos ed of groups of a professional and four amateurs. They (the amateurs) were either sponsored by some company or had paid to play with the pros. We saw Ashwell Harward come in on the 18th hole and he was playing right along with the other duffers. 1 don't believe 1 could have hit the ball in front of so many people. 1 We talked with Harward and he said the pros were real nice to play with and they would help you by giving tips when you asked for them. The crowd Friday was small, but from all reports the tournament was a success and should be on the schedule again next year. We hope so! ? ? ? i Saturday afternoon and then again Monday morning I had the good fortune to play golf with an old high school pal at Arabia. Robert Ward Whitley was in town visiting his sister, Mary Hazel. Robert now lives in Philadelphia and has been there since 1941. He is married and has four children. He said that he was retired, but that his wife was still working. We talked about the old days at Raeford High School and very often Robert would say that he had forgotten that incident. His com ment to me was that my memory was very good. Since he hasn't been around to talk with Robert Gatlin, Devoe Austin and many more he doesn't know how important it is to remember old places and incidents. It is always nice to see old friends and recall old times, but it is doubly good to be able to ride with someone for a few hours and not be interrupted when talking old times. So golf kinda made my weekend. ? ? ? This is the last time a notice will be run about the deadline for the graduation section of The News Journal. The issue will be publish ed on June 9.

According to an article in a daily newspaper, we may be paying more for stamps in the near future. It seems that the post office department is making money for the first time in a while, and to keep this up they must put in to raise postage. If inflation and interest rates come down and also the costs of all items we buy, will we still give everyone a lOVo raise each year? Some folks have never worked in a job without getting a raise every year.
