EDGEWATER HOTEL

Cypress Paneling Gives Interesting
Characteristic Beach APP
pearance

Kill Devil Hills. - The only
hotel that was open all the past
winter, the Edgewater, went
right ahead accommodating its
guests even while preparations
were being made for the sum-
mer season. Actually, not too
much has to be done in the way
of redecorating because of the
generous use of cypress wall
paneling.
The lobby and dining room are
completely finished in the cy-
press, even to the lobby desk de-
signed and built by George
Frank, one of the owners. In
the halls, cypress is used as
wainscoting, with painted walls
above. Although most of the bed
rooms have painted walls, panel
ing finishes some of them. In
the lobby, maple furniture and
rush rugs are used.
The Edgewater was first own
ed by Mr.. Frank and his brother,
but later they leased it for two
years. After that period, Mrs.
Hattie Diercks bought an in

Really Bitter to
Each Other

Chicago, tCNS)-There's been
lot of talk about the feud be-
tween Jersey roe Walcott and
Rocky Marciano but when they
posed for pictures at their check
up this week, you could just see
the enmity between them. In fact
they Just didn't say a word to
each other but rather Marciano
gave Joe the deep freeze" treat
ment.
The cause of the resentment
with Walcott is deep for he has
inferred that Marciano is
dirty" fighter. In fact his camp
feels that if it wasn't for the cut
on the eye Joe got in the first
meeting with Rocky, Joe would
not have lost the championship.
Rocky on the other hand, says:

the way he talks he's nothing but
