Time For Football

The seasons pass so quickly it IS hard
to keep up with what special activity
lies Just ahead. Here is Coach Leon
Brogden calling high school eligibles for
football practice today. And when grid
iron practice starts fall can't be far off.
Mr.. Brogden will start this football
season with a great advantage over last.
He has a squad of veterans around
whom to gather such novices as deserve
a tryout, whereas last year he had to
start at the bottom and time was too
short to do more than train the team in
the fundamentals of the game. Under
the circumstances, the Wildcats made
an excellent showing.
With the ground work out of the
way now, this years preseason train
ing should find New Hanover High
school ready to take the field with as
good a chance of becoming conference
champions as any of it's competitors.

McKenney On
BRIDGE
BY WILLIAM E. MCKINNEY
Americas Card Authority

I think we will hear more OF
young Jon Sanford of New York
in the next year or two. He is a
very keen player, and l am sure
you will like the defense he put
up on today's hand.
On the first trick declarer went
up with dummy's jack of diamonds
and East covered with the king.
South felt that he still had the
suit stopped, so he won with the
ace of diamonds and correctly
started the club suit.
However, Sanford CWesD refus-
ed to win the club until the third
round, and then instead of cash
ing his queen and ten Of diamonds.
he shifted to the deuce of spades,
realizing that although South had
bid spades, he had made no attempt
to run that suit. South won with the
king of spades and led a heart. Now
Sanford went in with the ace, cash
ed the queen and ten of diamonds
and pushed back another heart.
AS declarer had to lose another
heart trick to the jack, Sanford
and his partner made two dia-
monds, two hearts and a club.
I have frequently cautioned you
to count your tricks as declarer,
and this holds true on the defense
as well. Sanford realized that
South could always be blocked
out of his hand.

Peace Built On Distrust

With the Russian delegate to the
Paris peace debate, Andrei Y. Vishin-
sky, declaring Secretary of State James
F. Byrnes, ruling on an error in the
agenda, had insulted the Soviet Union,
and the daily procedure characterized
more by anger than anything else, it is
not difficult to agree with certain gentle
men in attendance, who were also pres
ent at the Versailles Peace Confer
ence, that there is little hope of real
progress at these sessions.
Among those at Paris who also OBJ
served the proceeding in 1919 is Harold
Nicolson, historian of the Congress Of
Vienna and the Versailles conference.
Pithily enough he remarks:
AT least at the last conference we
tried as hard as we could TO steer by the
Fourteen Points, and the Wilsonian
doctrine was carried out 30 per cent.
I wonder if 30 per cent Of the Atlantic
Charter will find its way into these
five treaties"
Jefferson Caffsry, United States
Ambassador to France, comparing the
two conferences, says:
The atmosphere was entirely diff
ferent. We were gay and it was not
just because we were younger than
that WI were gayer, but because there
was a tremendous surge of hope in that
conference which this one does not seem
to capture"
Peace built on such distrust as typi.
fies this Paris meeting cannot offer
security.

Winter V~acationing

The American Automobile Assocla-
ton has something to say about tourist
travel which cannot fail to encourage
the hardy souls in New Hanover and
Brunswick counties who are at work on
a program for year-around resort &C
Invites, including such a fishing rodeo
as has never been held or ever con-
templated in these parts before. Says an
A.A.A. official, Everyone who has
something with wheels that will turn is
either on the move or planning to 60"
It is a fact that everybody with gas
to burn and cash to spare is taking to
the highways in record numbers. The
A.A.A.'s prediction for the remainder
of 1946-and, mind you, the summer
is very nearly past-is that sixty mil
lion persons in twenty million cars will
take highway vacations, and their
pockets will be six billion dollars lighter
when they return home. This means
that fall and winter are just as favor
able seasons for junketing as summer,
and because of its open winters the
South is the natural destination Of fall
and winter tourists.
There is no good reason why New
Hanover and Brunswick counties should
go short on a fair share of this patron
age, Or that the rodeo should lack for
participants, especially as the event is
being widely publicized and the coun-
try is overflowing with ambitious
anglers.
Winter patronage of our resorts
means business not only for hotels and
restaurants and places of amusement.
The A.A.A. injects an ordinarily over
looked source of heavy patronage in
its forecast.
If these sixty million persons in their
twenty million cars, it says, have no.
more-than-normal troubles, they will
have at least ten million flat tires, seven
and one-half million cases of ignition
or battery failures and three million
serious b~reakdowns. If they are to get
home in their vehicles, all of these re-
pairs will have to be made, to the
financial advantage of the garagemen.
Tires, tubes and accessories of many
kinds will be in tremendous demand.
The probability is that no line of
business will fail of patronage with
this number of motorists abroad. 1t is
up to the group sponsoring the present
rodeo and the full winter of activities
to see that a large segment of this
motoring public learns of this areas
advantages as a favorable winter vaca-
tionland and head in this direction.

Air, Plus Rail, Transport

The competition among three North
Carolina airlines-State, Seaboard and
South East-to give Wilmington ser
vice to the highly industrialized regions
of this state, Virginia and Kentucky,
may we'll be accepted as indicating that
southeastern North Carolina is apprais-
ed as of high value in the expanding
air transport business of the Atlantic
seaboard.
The significant part of the proposal
is that all three lines seek east-west
routes, for the lack Of which Whining
ton is at a distinct disadvantage. Ma
tional Airlines provides north-south ser
vice and proposes to increase it's trips
to three each way daily, but we still
lack through east-west air communica-
ton beyond the state line.
Whichever of the three competing
lines is awarded a certificate by the
CAB will link the port city on the Cape
Fear with a region from which incalcu-
able patronage and benefits can be
drawn.
To a very large extent this business
would derive from passenger and mail
hauls. Valuable a these are, the freight
which might be drawn from the area
for the port, or moved into it as raw
materials, could outrank both and n
s%equently play a vital part in the port
commerce. AS the air lines are not pre-
pared to perform this service, it is
up to the railroads to make the profit.
Readers Of these columns will recall
that on August Z the Star, quoting the
Greensboro Record, called attention to
the re-establishment of train service
between Fayetteville and Wilmington
and urging that the Southern restore
its service between Mt. Airy and San.
ford. By this mean train service woulo
practically parallel the proposed air ser
vice and provide accommodation for thu
freight business which cannot now b,
handled by plane. Not only would tn
Wilmington port benefit. AS the Recort
notes, the service would be of grea
convenience and value to many com
munities."

Questions and Answers
On Servicemen's
Problems
By DOUGLAS LARSEN

WASHINGTON - Here are some
questions from veterans regard
ing recent changes in the regula-
tons and laws governing CT bene-
fits:
o. understand the interest
rate on loans made on government
insurance has been cut. Why was
this done and how do you &C about
applying tor it?
A-The interest rate was cut
from 5 to 4 FER cent. Veterans
Administr ation said the new rate
is il. keeping with the present
trend of interest rates on policy
loans made by commercial life in
surance companies. You will be
notified automatically by VA of
the cut. You don't have 10 do any
applying.
OIL am a veteran and have
been trying TO buy some items of
surplus property. But War Assets
Administration recently turned me
down on my priority. They said I
was acting as q broker and there
fore lost my priority, Can they do
this to me?
Ayes, they can. WAA has
ruled that persons acting as bro
kers cannot exercise a priority in
buying surplus property. 1t defines
brokers as persons whose business
1t is to bring together buyers and
sellers; who do not normally take
title or possessions; and who are
generally agents of one of the par
eles to a transaction.
O. viii Veterans Admins
tratlo1r have charge of paying off
terminal leave?
A-No. That job is the respon-
sibility OF n of the services.
Questions will be answered
only in this space-not by NALL

And I'm not speaking OF only
the bulb farms out there, but the
entire territory.
Incidentally, I've just heard from
Mrs. Lorena Rawls, The Stars
Currie correspondent. Sometime
back she agreed to invite me over
into Lower Bladen for a real coun-
try dinner. She reports that the
roads over there now are p~assable
and that l can make the trip most
any time.
Which gives me an idea: If I
can just meet some more of the
folks in Castle Hayne and also
hang onto Mrs. Rawls' invitation
the chances are I can pick up some
excellent dinners come the fall and
harvesting time: excellent dinners
complete with large pitchers Of
buttermilk,
The Wilmington morning star., 1946-08-14
BY JOHN SKIES

Much time has passed since last
l got on the subject Of food. There
fore, l hope you will pardon me
if I tell you that, in t-aipsing
around Castle Hayne the past
couple of days, I've found the
source OF the SWEETEST buttermilk
that has passed my lips in some
years since when I used to take
it, as the saying goes, from a farm
e. out from North Wilkesboro in
the great State of Wilkes.
The Buttermilk Lady I've found
is a Mrs. Kern, in Castle Hayne.
That, of course, may not be the
correct spelling of her name, but
that's as close as I can come to it
at the moment.
And, speaking OF butte-milk, /
have often wondered why it is that
this good and honey beverage
never has seemed to reach much
popularity in Eastern North Caro-
lima. In the western part of the
State buttermilk is a staple drink
and when you're having a meal out
in the country you'll usually find
a big pitcher of the stuff, flecked
with golden blobs Of butter, on the
table.
For a long time, I've tried to
find buttermilk around these parts.
You know, the churned kind. (The
kind l first started out drinking
some years ago va made in the
old%-fashioned up-and-down spatter
type of chu-a and although I'm
ever willing to try out the new
rinctums in fot and drink-mak-
ing, l still hold out for this old
fashioned type Of churn.) l forgot
to ask Mrs. Kern what type Of
churn she uses.
AID speaking of Castle Hayne,
l find it one Of the lushest farm
ing sections I've seen anywhere.
In this day of high-priced food it
seems to me that the Castle Hayne
people, and others who live in the
section, are the best off of any
group. Most Of the people out there
The Wilmington morning star., 1946-08-14
The Castle Hayne Section Is JustAbout
The Tops In State For Farming Areas

raise a wide variety OF garden
crops. If, for example, I'd had the
time yesterday I probably could
have picked myself a washtub full
of butterbeans. And for free. This
was in Mrs. S. A. Barnes garden
where Mrs. Venable-I'm hoping
that's the correct spelling-and her
son, Joseph, just back from the
Navy, were helping themselves to
the butte-beans in a most neighbor-
ly manner. The Venables live
across the road from the Barneses.
I am told by the folks out in the
section that they had tomatoes and
other garden crops to throw away
this year. In fact, they fed quite
a lot of this truck to the pigs. But,
when you consider the high price
Of hog food, this could by no means
be considered a waste of good
vegetables. AS a matter of fact,
I'm told that the Castle Hayne
people feed a good big portion of
their butte-milk to the pigs. Pigs,
you probably have found out, have
become very patrician and it's
natural they would want only the
best things to eat.
In case you haven't been out
around Castle Hayne lately it would
be worth your time to take a trip
out there. I've managed to cover
a good deal of territory in North
Carolina over the past many years
and l have yet to find a farming
section that seems more prosperous
in the State than Castle Hayne.

Religion

By WILLIAM T. ELLIS
A STEP TOWARD SOCIALISM

"A SlEP 1OWAhD
The greatest step eve taken in
American toward national So
cialism or totalitarianism was
President Truman's announcement
that striking utilities would be
taken over by the Government, the
workers drafted into the army, and
all profit retained by the national
treasury.
This program exceeds even Bri-
fish Socialism.
Discussion will range long and
widely and deeply.
In all deliberate seriousness let
it be said that this crisis calls first
for the application of religion. II
the spirit of classism, animositv
and personal advantage prevails.
then the Nation will be in for dis
ruptive strife.
But if the patient, tolerant, broth
erly spirit of Jesus dominates US
all, then whatever changes come to
pass will be headed toward the
Kingdom of Heaven ideal. Without
His enabling leadership, we shall
fall into the morass.
No measure before American to-
day is as important as the Chris.
%tianization of u common spirit.
We confront Christ or Chaos. "
From every pulpit, classroom and
editorial desk should resound the
slogan, All We are brethren" where
"One is yo;'r Master, even Christ"
"From whence cometh our ha.ro
Our help cometh from the Lord"
SO we cry to Thee, in our desperate
need, save us or we perish Lord"
Amen.
