DOLPHIN COURT ADDS SERVING OF BREAKFAST Crabapple Stone Fireplace, Unusual Furnishings Dis tinguish Dining Room Nags Head. Something new has been added at the Dolphin Motor Court on the Oregon Inlet road. It’s a breakfast room, prim arily for guests in the court.

Most of the court’s office has been turn ed into a breakfast room, with room for 12 people to be served at three large tables. The white pine captain’s chairs, drop leaf tables and round table centered with a lazy Susan are of North Carolina manufacture and so unusual as to extract many en thusiastic comments and ques tions from breakfasters. A roomy fireplace adds a cozy note to the room, even in sum mer when no fire is needed. Oc cupying most of one side of the room, the fireplace is built of crabapple stone, with shelves of the same material extending out under windows at each side of the chimney.

When the Dolphin was built, ample provision was made for parking. The units, set around a wide U, have driveway and parking space, and more parking provision was made at the front, where two entrances turn off the road into the grounds.
