Stars Come Out At Oak Grove...
Most of you know about the .
Dodgers, but how many know of
the L.A. Stars? They're just like the
Dodgers...maybe not just like
them, but at least they are a ball
team, and a pretty good one, too.
They defeated Fasco 30-0 last
Friday. And, unlike the Dodgers,
these are all female players. Team
members are Barbara Hayes, Betty
White, Cookie Cook, Joy
Anderson, Elizabeth Laney, Becky
Appling, Leigh Ann Prener, Peggy
Ledford, kathy Dover, Kim Bailes,
Debbie Fite, Tracy Fortison, Terry
Switzer, A.J. Simmons and Susan
Briggs.
And, speaking of ball games, the
Bethware teachers played the fifth
graders in softball on field day last
Friday. The fifth graders won.
Maybe the kids should have spot-
ted the teachers a couple of runs.
There will be big doings at Oak
Grove Baptist Church Saturday---
one of those great church picnics
with all of that fantastic food!
Those women out there can really
cook!
Congratulations to Cindy
Bullock on her upcoming wedding.

A progress report on Florence
White: It seems that she is doing
great. "I can't get enough to eat,
and I feel fine," she says.
Both Florence and Rush traveled
to Fallston recently and enjoyed
dinner with Bill and Betty Ashley.
Florence points out that all but one
of her brothers and sisters were
present for Memorial Day services
at Oak Grove. They included
Clyde and Fred Ware, Ethel Kaiser,
Sue Lewis and Mary Gibbons.
Missing was Frank Ware.
If you think you recognized one
of the Indians at Tweestie Railroad,
you probably did. Ricky White,

dinner at the Western Steer recent-
ly.

I didn't have a column in last
week's paper due to being on vaca-
tion. I was surprised and flattered
to find that some people actually
missed seeing the column. Thanks
for your interest.
My husband, Roy, and I took a
vacation to Lancaster County, Pa.
This was cur Jourth visit there. We
never tire of the beautiful, peaceful
countryside. Being horse lovers,

Chestnut
Ridge
BY MYRLE KING
we always attend the Martin
Brothers Auction. Some of the
most beautiful horse drawn car-
riages I've ever seen are sold there,
as well as other horse-related
items. People attend from as far
away as Canada, Switzerland and
England. When we are not at the
auction, Roy and I drive over the
, fertile Amish countryside just to
see the rolling farm land with its
picture perfect crops. Of course,
© the Amish do all of their farm work
with horses and on this trip we saw
them tending the ground with six
and seven horses abreast pulling
large farm implements behind. The
Amish live off the land much like
they did a century ago. They do not
believe in electricity and other
modern conveniences and still get
where they are going by horse and
buggy. They are a very industrious
people and, in addition to their
large farms, have some small craft
businesses in their homes. One
man offers buggy rides to tourists.
I am very impressed with the
cleanliness of these people. You
never see a piece of paper or any
trash in the yard, field or along the
roadside. Their large homes and
barns are set in manicured lawns
with flowers everywhere. It is truly
a storybook countryside. I would
highly recommend Lancaster
County, Pa., as a good place for a
family vacation. While you are
there, vou can visit Gettysburg
Battlefield which is only about 25
miles away.
Donna Landers was honored at a
stork shower Sunday. The shower
was given by family and friends in
the fellowship hall of Chestnut
Ridge Baptist Church. Donna and
her husband, Todd, are expecting
their second child in June. Mitchell
Todd, their 15-month-old son, was
on hand to help open gifts.
Wedding bells will be ringing .-
Saturday for Cindy Bullock and
Eric King.
Denise McLeymore, grand-
daughter of John H. and Austine
Moore, graduated from Northwest
Guilford High School in
Greensboro Saturday. Denise will
celebrate her graduation at Myrtle
Beach with family and friends.
We still have some who are very
sick in our community. David
Dellinger is in serious condition at
home. Elsie Dellinger is also very
well. Manuel Bridges had surgery
last week and is doing very well.
Frances Baker, Phyllis Hughes and
others, are sick at home, and
Kenny Stokes is in the hospital.

It seems that the Huffstetlers had
a little problem the other day. Kim
and Angela are both graduating
this year at the same time.
Unfortunately, one graduates from
Kings Mountain and the other from
Cleveland Tech. So what's a parent
to do? Of course, one went to
Kim's graduation and the other to
Angela's. Where there's a will,
there's a way! Also, Angela will be
getting married June 11 at Second
Baptist Church in Shelby. The
lucky groom is Mark Swink.
