Slaughter Beach Breezes

This resort enjoyed a safe ant
sane Fourth of July. 1t was a de-
lightful weekend for residents as
well as visitors. Perfect weather
moonlight nights, midday bathing
all helped to make things just right
Many cottages we're occupied just for
the weekend, with the occupants
moving out late Monday afternoon
or early Tuesday morning. but more
than three-fourths Of them are still
tenanted. A good number went to
Dover on Monday afternoon for the
ball game between Dover and Mil
ford and in the evening to Milford
where the same teams played again.
This sport has a number OF fans
from here. Many boats we're seen off
shore from here ON the morning OF
the Fourth. They were fishing, with
good luck being reported. Pretty
