A pungent aroma of baking ap-
pie pies warmed the noses OF eight
young people as they turned into
the road on Greenville Sound lead
ing to Higgs. Couple by couple the
people gathered at that house Sat-
urday night for some mighty fine
cooking as another great p o
was served.
A tastily favored meat sauce
oozed through the long milky
strings of piping hot spaghetti
which filled the multi-colored Chi
ma plates, and each cover boasted
a frosted glass Of iced tea. Ten
places filled the table, and each
person sat down to enj ~ the sup
per as the cooks for the evening
came into the room.
AS usual we reached Higg's just
a tiny bit too late to help with
the preparations; SO after the ap-
pie pie, which had been topped
with a huge scoop of vanilla ice
cream, was only a pleasant men,
DRY, I found myself wrist-deep in
soapsuds in the kitchen. Although
l don't intend to invite any such
activity the work with the hot
water, soapsuds, and ajshtowels
wa certainly joyously ccom
plished after such a pleasant past
time as devouring that meal at
Higgs-cornbread included.

Incidentally, most of us have
met Kay, the petite brunette from
Raleigh, and we have found her
quite enjoyable company even If
she can support a firm stand on

UNFORGETTABLE SUPPER
Kay has trequented the. many
favorite spots around Wilmington,
and she seems to be enjoying her
new location. Sho' are glad to
have the Andersons here!
Betsy Barnett of Fayetteville,
who was visiting Kay Anderson
for a week, was down at Higgs
Saturday night for the supper with
a friend, Don Skwart, who halls
from the West coast. Don came
to Wilmington over the week end
on leave from Fort Bragg where
he is stationed as a paratfooper.
Both Betsy and Don returned to
Fayetteville on Sunday.
After the last of the final stack
of records on Higg's monograph
had plopped down and when Higg
had reminisced through the last of
his fascinating tales Of ''times
when" for the evening, the last
of the visitors headed homeward.

spaghetti, the generous slice of
