Much-Sought Climate

The climate of the Hendersonville
community has been popular with health
and pleasure seekers for more than a
century. Dr. Hardy, South Carolinian,
was among the medical pioneers to this
section more than hundred years ago.
His discovery of an unusual climate led
others to this vicinity where they estab-
lished the Flat Rock colony. Here most
of the fine estates now stand in whole
or in part and are attractive because
of their charming gardens and extensive
landscapes.
That was the beginning of our tour
ist business. Numerous others followed
for summers rest or recuperation.
Others came and dwelt throughout the
year, selecting this mountain climate as
the best all-year climate in America,
free from the extremes of heat and
cold, with sufficient altitude (averaging
about 22OO) to be cool in summer and
southern latitude (35 l-3 deg.) that
insures freedom from extreme cold.

Seeing the Scenery

This is a motorists paradise, always
somewhere to go and a paved road to
go on. There are the beautiful, peace
full valleys with their gently flowing
streams, but if you want more of the
rugged country and turbulent streams,
you may motor to them and enjoy ma
jestic falls. If the scenery, which is
different at every turn of the steering
wheel, is not enough on the much-trav-
eled public highways, take a private
one, or one built by the Federal govern
ment, and they will take you up above
the clouds, where you may dwell in
wonderment a mile or more above the
sea.
Make HendersOnville your headquar-
tiers. From here you may visit the Great
Smoky Mountains National Park, Mount
Mitchell, Pisgah National Forest, Blow
ing Rock, Caesars Head, BiltmOre Es-
tates, Cherokee Indian Reservation,
Highlands, Chimney Rock, and many
other outstanding points of interest,
and return before nightfall. Good roads
lead to all these popular points. Parties
for these trips are made up by taxi
companies.

The Carolina was designed along atmospheric
lines in the motif of the Italian Renaissance. Each
side of the auditorium is closed by classic garden
wall over which is painted mural, representing a
Handicapped terrace. Every detail of the decorative
scheme was studied to create an atmosphere pc
culiar to the gardens of Italy. The murals were
done by Navno NatalOni. of New York. Sculp-

Nader Clearly
0utpoints Hobo

Awaiting until the sixth round
to turn on the punching heat,
Eddie Nader, q former ranking
heavyweight from New York,
easily defeated Charles (Hobo)
williams, of Alexandria at Turn
er's Arena last night over an
unorthodox nine-round route.
The decision was a unanimous
one and the fast furry Of action
which was packed in the last
three stanzas clearly proved that
Nader was the better Of the two
mittmen. Had the bout gone
through 10 heats, close observers
at the ringside were # the opinion
that the :;andria mauler would
have hit the canvas for the count.
Nader, the favorite, entered the
ring scaling 179 pounds. Williams
weighed 174.
But the Alexandria lad held on
as the gong sounded. In the ninth
session, however, Nader caught
Williams with a left hook to the
body and nearly had the sVir-
ginian out on his feet.
In the Six-round Semifinal, Max
RoeSch, Texas heavyweight,
knocked out Jimmy Wilson in 2
minutes and is seconds of the Sec
ond round. RoeSch was floored
for the count of nine in the first
heat.

National League players.
This is the surprising statement
of a man closely identified with
baseball who discussed the matter
with this agent, imposing trust
that his anonymity be maintained.
II trace the source of this
trouble" said the writer's in
fOrmant, "tO the World Series of
1885,, when George MOriarty put
out of a game, Charley Grimm
and certain other Cubs for abuS-
ing Hank Greenbergy because of
his religion. You will sac In, most
of the inter:league games that
National League players start
after American League un1pires.
Dean, according to those who
saw the game, started an argu-
ment with OrmSby over q called
ball. He called OrmSby some
vile names and attacked his
family. Ormsby went right after
him, but Intervention Of calmer
men prevented what might have
been a serious outbreak"
1t was pointed out that the Phil
lies hoped all over Lou Kolls,
who has been assigned to work the
Washington games. It was fur
ther pointed out that the st. Louis
team battled Kolls on the matter
of called strikes. Kolls preserved
order by threatening to clear the
Cardinal bench.
Kolls declined to discuss the
vendetta angle of the report, but
admitted that the National League
players were quick on the trigger
in games that he worked.
II guess the rivalry between
the leagues makes them ner-
vOus," KOIIS said. "When you
come right down to it, the Ma
tiOnal League wants to win for
the sake of the league, and the

Hopes
To Get Offer
0f$35O,O00
BY DAVIS J. WALSH

NEW YORK, March 30.-At the
rate of SO minute, which proba.
bly, is more than the prize fight
itself will ever be worth, q trans.
atlantic telephone call is going
through to Max Schmeling, upon
his arrival in: Germany today in
a last attempt to rescue Manager
Joe Gould from the throes of his
own reasoning and, at the same
time, close for Schmeling- Brad
dock fight in Berlin. Mr.. Gould,
whose behavior at times has been
such as to create the impression
that maybe he's holding his
fighter for ransom, has personally
requested that the call be put
through.
He has been taking talcum on
everything and everybody, but
would now like to climb down off
the roller coaster and settle for q
little sanity. He wants to know
whether there has been any dis.
count on the $35O,00O offer of
Schmeling and the Germans for
the proposed Berlin fight and,
If not, he says he's now ready
to sign.
A week ago, he was telling every.
body that he was sorry he hadn't
held out for $500,000. So
He'll take $3.50, ,OOO-if he can
still get it," said Joe Jacobs, the
Schmeling manager, this morn
ing. There never was going to
be any reduction or elevation in
the price, but getting the bid
back after it was withdrawn is
something else.
Gould made us wait around
here for, three weeks. Now, he
wants everything settled in three
minutes. I'm beginning to think
that Madison Square Garden
has him right"
This Snide utterance apparently
was meant to support the canard
that MIR. Gould is an extremely
lmpulsive young man, but not too
bright, although the point is still
open to debate. For instance, he's
not going to pay the charges for
what probably will be an inane
and aimless conversation today.
The very frugal Mr.. Schmeling is.

Lawyers for the Madison Square
