Light Workout Held BY

For Game AT Durham

DURHAM, Oct. 31-LR--Footban
training in the Duke camp was
curtailed this afternoon, when the
Duke coaching staff put the Blue
Devils through a short practice
with the Georgia Tech eleven.
The drill lasted scarcely more
than an hour, but the squad got
another look at Georgia Techs Of
tense, aerial and ground, and
should be prepared for almost any
trick the invaders try to pull here
Saturday. While the defensive drill
was a thorough one the Blue Devils
also got in some work on their
own offense.
Hot weather of yesterday and to-
day has made it impossible to get
the best out of the training ses-
sions, but the squad was said to-
day to be in fair shape for the
Georgians. There are only two cas-
ualties, both of hem ends. Dave
Porterfield and Jim Smith, both
sophomore wingmen, are on the
ailing list, but are expected to get
into the Tech contest. 4

The death of a lot of football
teams have been the dislike for prac-
tice by players. This seems to
be the case with the New Hanover
High school eleven -. For instance,
one afternoon this week there were
only Is boys out for practice, which
is quite a drop from the SO boys
who were taken on the teams first

Beach Fire Department
Weu-Trained, Equipped

A well-trained, adequately-equip-
ped fire department protects Caro-
lima Beach and its visitors from
the dangers of fire.
This department for the past sew
eral season has been given inten-
sive and extensive training by
members of the Wilmington Fire
Department and has a reputation
for putting a stop to all blazes
before they grow to any size
The department is equipped with
two engines, one of which is a
modern, up-to-date pumper. The
purchase of additional equipment
is now being considered by the
town as double insurance against
any damage from fir.
The equipment is housed in the
fire station, located at the town
water tank, near the center of the
busy resort and readily available
to all sections of the beach.
Here visiting firemen also find
quarters when they visit the beach
and are accorded a warn welcome
by members of the Carolina Beach
department. 2

FLYING FIELD IS
OPENED AT BEACH
Runways Are Cut And Facil-

Types Of Air Craft

Carolina Beach this summer has
a flying field, newly located and
developed to provide adequate ia.
cilities for those people who would
fly to the beach, for those who
would learn to fly and for those
who desire to charter planes for
cross-country flights.
The field, which will be operated
by the Pennington Flying Service.
is located on the Carolina Beach
highway a quarter of a mile before
the vacationist reaches the inland
waterway bridge as he goes from
Wilmington to Carolina Beach.
Here runways have been cut
which provide ample room for
even the largest planes to land
and to take off.
Space has also been provided
for caring for the planes of those
who desire to fly to the beach.
In addition a parking area has
been set aside between the high
way and the flying field proper
where motorists may park their
automobiles.

RESORT TOWN SEES
RAPID EXPANSION
Carolina Beach Termed Fast
est Growing Town In
The State
1.-The fastest growing town il

"The fastest growing town in
the state"
That is the term frequently ap-
piled to Carolina Beach which is
rapidly growing into a city and
which is becoming the most pop
ular beach resort on the Atlantic
Seaboard.
In three years this resort town
tripled its taxable values and dur
ing the past year has shown little
let-up in its rapid pace of growth.
During the past fiscal year,
county records show, there was
an increase in taxable values in
Federal Point township, in which ii
is located, of no less than $40, 1923,
which represented almost half OF
the total increase in taxable values
in the county.
From May S, 1899 through May
%, 1910 there were Sc new build
ings erected within the corporate
limits of Carolina Beach and there
were As additions to existing build
ings. Some of these additions, such
as the one to the Bame hotel,
were of considerable size and in
volved expenditures of large
amounts of money.
One of the interesting things
about Carolina Beach is that it
can truly be called North Caro-
lina's Beach" for the majority of
the property there is owned by
people living, not at Carolina
Beach, but throughout the state.
There are many families which
live at the resort throughout the
year, but the greater part of the
property is owned by people living
in localities scattered over the
state from the ocean shores to the
mountain heights. 2

RESORT OFFERS

Possible

Carolina Beach, now a year
around place of residence for hun
dreds of people, offers vacation
lists every service and convenience
for which they could ask.
During the past several years
when the number of year-around
residents at the resort town has
increased many fold, modern, at
tractive stores of all types have
been erected and from these the
vacationist can secure any type
Of goods which might be desired.
There was a time when the bust
ness establishments of the rapidly
growing resort town were simply
Stands" and were operated but
three or four months of the year.
But today all of that is changed.
Today the vacationist at Carolina
Beach can obtain at the m e
prices as are paid lat home" such
services as those offered by the
laundry, the dairy, the vegetable
house, the fish market, the gro
Gerry store, the drug store, the bar
Der shop, the beauty salon, t. e
bakery, the newspaper, the tele-
graph companies, the telephone,
the meat market, the ready-to.
wear establishments, the garage,
the filling station and the sport
shop, and even the services of 8

Those interested in the advance
ment of Carolina Beach are PROUD
Of the completeness of the services

no n has ever requested any

Merchants at the resort tow
point out that they Ire able to pro

because they operate their bust

out that through continuous oper
