Newsy Breezes From Nearby Shore Resorts
Beach season nears close as daytime quiet gives way to nighttime crowds at shore cottages. Many cottages house permanent residents with winter plans to ease rent for families of nearby ammunition plant workers. Edward Broderick of Syracuse, a former beach boss, is reported killed in action in France. Social Whist Club members were entertained at Silver Beach and enjoyed meals and cards. Local residents and visitors, including multiple Bridgeport and New York names, populate cottages at Myrtle Beach and Silver Beach through September with travel and furlough updates.
