Supposed to have arrived home
last night was one somebody who
is well-known by all the local
music lovers, and lovers in general.
He is Jimmy Caudill who has been
in the Navy for quite sometime.
He arrived in Norfolk this past
Monday, and headed for home
shortly thereafter.
Another fella back home from
service in the Navy is George
Daughtry. He is out and becom-
ing re-established as a civilian.
News from Bill Lassiter tells us
that he is still in the Navy in Char
lesion, but plans, and hopes, to be
discharged sometime in August.
When he receives his discharge, he
plans to enter Harvard on the Pep
si-Cola scholarship he won his
senior year at MINIS and study
science.
Have you passed a car or the
road lately that made you think
you must be seeing things or
maybe you're in the wrong cen
fury? 1T is a Buick, 1908 model,
and is now owned by Jimmy and
Billy Burns. 1t was the first a
R. J.. Reynolds ever owned, and
has been in the Burns family for
over twenty-five years. The Burns
boys have painted it white, but
otherwise no alterations have been
made. At night the car%raige-like
headlights give forth a beam Of
light bright enough to see the road.
The steering wheel is on the right
side of the car, and the gear shift
is on the fender. Jimmy says it
isn't hard to m%aneuver, but all the
pedals on the floor are a little con-
fusing. And speaking of Jimmy,
he flew back to California this past
weekend to put in a years service
with the Merchant Marines. If any
n ever was a credit to the uni
form worn by their chosen branch,
of service, Jimmy really is. Billy
plans to resume his position with
national broadcasting system N
the near future.
North Carolina is represented in
the annual Lost Colony pageant
by the outstanding voice and per-
sonality of Miss Barbara Marshall.
She is a student at Westminster
and sings with the choir which
provides background music FOR
Paul Green's production.
Just back from service in the
Navy is Alton Hall. Alton is a grad
uate of the class of "a and was an
active member of the ROTC band
and Walter Barnes swing band
while here. He also played with
Ken Kavanaugh and the gang In
the good old days!
Heading for Wake Forest today
seeking enrolment in the fall term
we're Cash Register, Jay Carter,
and Whitley Aud. During the war
the Navy az pealed to the majority
of Wilmington boys Wilmington
girls, too, but now that peace is
here again, Wake Forest seems
to be taking all those studiously
inclined. State is running Wake
Forest a close second though, so
if you choose either n Of these
colleges, you're CERTAIN to see and
be with lots of Wilmingtonians.
Congratulations to two people
who, after having gone together
for quite sometime r now Mr..
and Mrs. I mean Jimmy Simon
and Pat Patrick. Yes, they're
MI. and Mrs. James Allen Simon,
and I know they'll both be very
happy. All the best to you two.
Word comes from Tinker Field,
Oklahoma and 1t. Harry T. Will
liams that things are okay out that
way, but it sho' is a long way
from home. Harry hopes to be
stationed somewhere on the east
coast in the very near future.
N. Kathryn Kester doesn't have
a new beau. If you read yesterdays
column and saw where she had
been seen with Jerry James, 1t was
a misprint. 1t was Perry, and al
ways is!
Yesterday was St. Swithin's Day.
