Vacation travel changes pace
this week.
Although the calendar doesn't
cay so. fall arrives. and school
bells the children on the beaches
try not to hear call parents as
well back home. The three-day
Labor Day week end provides the
hectic climax. Then millions Of
families will settle into a rela-
lively stay-at-home existence,
and dream about where they'll

1t Is not wholly that, for the
new pace means motoring excur-
sions into the countryside on
pleasant days. Falls spectacular
color. just around the corner Of
the seasons. will be the inspira-
ton for even weekend trips with
the kids toward the woodlands
Of Maryland and Virginia, per-
haps farther.
! That's one phase of the change
Of pace showing up after Labor
Day. The holiday, however, opens
gates rather than closes them
for other millions. For them, 1t
signals the arrival Of the most
seductive season of the year.
Millions Favor FAN
Some figures have been COL
lected to show that, Of the "a
million or more vacation trips
Americans take every year. more
than 8 million are In the fall
months. And those who love
''October's bright blue weather"
have several advantages that are
denied those who must crowd
their travels into summers three
peak vacation months.
Summer resorts more and more
are breaking away from o three
month season. They don't close
up aS readily by . calendar
date that ignores the prospects
Of pleasant weather for at least
several weeks. Also, the crowds
are gone. Enough people are left
for companionship, but with the
exodus comes less pressure for
choice rooms, less queue-ing up
for facilities and more Of the
luxury Of stretching out ones
legs on the sands without the
danger Of being stumbled over.
Prices Cheer Thrifty
Perhaps the greatest boon for
those thrifty with vacation bud
gets is the seasonal drop in prices.
Generally. late vacation costs at
summer resorts are cut, just as
Florida's resorts slash their rates
to build Q summer crowd. For
the price Of o back room in a
summer hotel, the oh-season
vacationer likely can get q front
suite overlooking the sea or the
mountains. Resort operators are
ut least disposed to make conces-
Sions.

Anglers Association.
All captains Of fishing party
boats win provide free rides in q
big flotilla Of cabin cruisers that
leave the Lewes Yacht Basin
promptly at $50 pm. for q one
hour voyage around the pic
turesque lighthouses. The Cham
Der Of Commerce is sponsoring
this event for the late August
crowds arriving daily for the
long Labor Day holidays. Head
ing the parade out through
Roosevelt Inlet will be one Of the
Lewes Coast Guards patrol
boats as flagship" while an
Army boat from Fort Miles will
follow.
The sightseeing voyage will
pass the large menhaden fish
plants that were responsible for
giving Lewes the rank Of Largest
fishing port in the United States"
in 1868 by the United States Fish
and Wildlife Service.
It viii pass the Lewes Coast
Guard Station that made ma

some $50 U-boat victims landed

than wage q war Of nerves on
the resorts. and that the popular

now little evidence that winds

How It Looks Now
Here is the picture that sreets
visitors to the North Carolina
coast now:
All transient accommodations,
including motor courts. hotels
and inns. are open and virtually
untouched by the high waters
which accompanied the recent
storms.

holdover guest leaves, and that
such attractions as outdoor
dramas ring down the curtain for
the year. Theaters on the straw

most resort areas. motels and
inns. guests houses and cabins
stay open in such numbers as to
provide q choice of accommoda-

breaking with the September

attractions that appeal to indiv-

Thus September's school bells,
rather than sounding the knell

change the pace and call on the
more footloose vacationer to get
