HOWELL RENAMED
BY-S0UTHERN VETS
5Uth Annual Convention Ut
Former Confederate Sol
diers Ended Ism Capital

WASHINGTON, Oct. 11.-R-The
50th annual reunion of the United
Confederate veterans ended late to:
day with Commander-in-C Thief julius
Franklin Howell reelected and with
some Of his comrades nursing ruffled
feelings.
The election, from which General
Howell, 94.year-old Bristol (Va.) vet
eran, barred ~"petticoats'' and sons
OF veterans, was announced after
General Homer Atkinson Of Peters
burg, Va, a past commander-in-chie
and General John R. Kennedy OF
Tuscaloosa, Ala, stalked from the
room in protest against some of Gen.
eral Howell's rulings.
General r. P. (Uncle Bob Scott of
Dallas, Texas, defeated by General
Howell on a one-vote margin, &C.
cepted the verdict graciously with
the statement that i've got a chris.
tan heart, and a spirit Of forgive
ness"
Confusion was such that General
Howell stated repeatedly he was will
ing to direct the taking of another
ballot.
Earlier the veterans adopted a
resolution to continue their annual
reunions as long as any two remain
ed alive and able to get together.
Train time found some of the vet.
Grams and their attendants uttering
vague warnings of retaliation against
the administration, but mutual
friends of veterans of both sides ex-
pressed belief that time would heal
the wounds occasioned by the set-to.
General Atkinson, leader Of the
Order of the Stars and Bars, and
General Kennedy, commander of the
department Of Tennessee, insisted
they were in no mood for a recon.

The best equipment doesn't al
weekend when he bagged an eight
Joseph McCraw James proved last
weekend when he bagged an eight
pound sea bass at Kure's pier while
other fishermen pulled in sand
perch.
Not that Joe James was a sea-
soned fisherman either, for it was
the first time the lad had dipped
his line into salt water. Joe, who
lives at Oleander, hardly expected to
catch anything that day. He had
acquired a small pole, and line, and
interested his father, Lawyer Muir
ray James, in the fishing trip.
Of cours Joe knew how to cast.
He had practiced until he had that
art down pretty we'll. Leaning over
the rail with his eyes excitedly fol.
lowing the tumbling waves, Joe, like
every other fisherman, had visions
of bringing up the largest fish and
showing it off before the others.
But it takes a lot of patience and
a lot of fishing to catch any kind
of fish. Joe grew rather tired stand
ing, and leaned more heavily on
the rail. And then a slight tug at
his line. He stood straight. A fish!
The fish pulled harder and Joe
pulled too. Excitedly he called to
his father.
And then the fish was yanked
out Of the water high enough to
be seen. All the fishermen stared
a fish that big on that tiny rod.
The old salts said it couldn't be
brought in-not with Joe's rod and
line. And there was sixth-grader Joe
James staring at his first fish caught
on a hook Hopping in the water
and he couldn't pull it in.
Dimly he heard such shouts as
line will break" or never make
It," while the rod bobbed up and
down in his hand. All seemed lost
to the thrilled yet disappointed boy
until a seasoned fisherman spoke
up.
Run on down the pier" he shout
ed to Joe's father. It'll pull this
drum along toward you. And come
out in the water as far as YOU can
to catch him."
And they did. There was Joe's fish
high and dry on the beach. Joe
says he can't eat that fish, and so
his father is having 1t mounted for
him.
So Joe's advice 10 fishermen is:
1t doesn't matter what kind Of rod
and reel Or how many times you've
fished before: it's all IN how hard
you wish to catch that big fish!
