AIRPORT RUNWAY
HALF COMPLETED
Engineer Forecasts Work
.WiII Be Finished on Seized.
: uIe, November Is.

The 100000 Washington airport
runway construction program reached
the halfway point today and, despite
several unforeseen obstacles which
have arisen in connection with drain
age Of the field, Daniel H. Reed. con-
struction engineer, said he was
confident the entire program will be
completed on schedule, November 10.
Paving of half of each of the two
main runways has been completed, the
final seal coat having been applied
yesterday. A major portion Of the
taM-strip connecting the runways,
hangers and terminal building also has
been completed.
Reed announced today that it has
been decided to lay an additional TO-
900 square yards O. having not con-
templated in the original plan to pro-
vide a servicing area and access to
the hangers on the old Hoover Field
area. This area, approximately 100
yards square, will be between the air.
plane and airship hangers, connecting
with the main 4,200-foot runway
across Military road.
Tests will be made tonight Of new
type of airport flood light of 100000
candlepower. which is expected to pro-
vide better illumination Of the landing
area than is possible with the eight
existing lights. The new light COM
bines four lamps and four dioptric
lenses in a single cast metal housing.
The chief advantage'of the new lamp,
1t Is said is that it will keep the light
beams fiat on the ground. below the
line of vision Of the pilots.
Grading of the main runway across
Military road was completed yesterday
and graders and scrapers now are at
work on a 250-foot shoulder east Of
the runway. Grading Of the main
runway down the length Of old Hoover
Field also has been completed, involv-
ing the cutting down to depth Of five
feet of long knoll along Boundary
Channel, the filling Of the side Of the
field adjoining the Arlington Expert
mental Farm, and the Military road
fill.
Laying of the crushed stone foun-
dauon for the main runway in the
Hoover Field section probably will
start today and the paving of this sec
ton of the runway will be completed
within week, Reed said. The sec
tion across Military road will be left
until last. but probably will be COM
pleted within two weeks.
AS a result Of last weeks rains,
which necessitated a temporary NOV
ing of some Of the airline operations
from Washington Airport to Boiling
Field, laying of some additional drain
age tile has become necessary, Reed
explained. This work probably will
be completed today. The paving OF
the Hoover Field hangar area also
will require installation Of additional
drainage tile and catch basins.

: Raleigh, April 14.-For those who
failed to get the urge to fish during
Easter Monday and others who were
not able to get full satisfaction from
their excursion to the "old fishing
hole" yesterday, Lake Mathematical
in Hyde county, will furnish a means
for indulgence in angling during the
rest of the spawning season.
This lake, consisting of some $4,000
acres, is the property of the Federal
government and is therefore subject
to regulations promulgated by the Bu-
reau Of the Biological Survey, Off
Gals of which have announced that
no closed season will be in effect dur
ing the remainder Of the 4O-day closed
season warm water fishing.
Conditions making it advisable to
permit fishing throughout the season
last year continue this year, accord
ing to J. D. Chalk, State game and
inland fisheries commissioner The
fish population of the lake is too
dense for their own welfare A study
of the situation has shown that the
fish are too numerous for the food
supply.
Administration of fishing privileges
on the lake will again be under the
direction of the Department of Con-
servation and Development, to which
they have been given by the Biologi-
cal Survey.
Complete facilities will again be
available at the lake for visiting fish
ermen. Guide services, boats, and all
necessary Accommodations, including
board, are available at the lake or
nearby. A privilege fee of SOC daily
as well as State licenses are neces-
sary for fishing.
Fishermen of the State will have
another channel open this week for
indulging in their favorite sport with
the opening of the trout season in the
mountains on April Is. This season
has been closed since the beginning
of last September. Meantime, the fish
ing season for the warm water species
will continue closed in the mountains,
Piedmont, and coastal sections. The
spawning season ends in the noun
tains on June II and in the rest of
the State on Monday II.

BLUE MOLD. REPORTED
IN EASTERN SECTION

New Bern, April 14-Blue mold has
already been found in several tobac-
co beds of the Vanceboro section,
though the disease is not yet spread
ing very much, it has been learned
from County Agent H. A. Patten.
No control methods have yet been
recommended that cloth be removed
from the beds during the day to per-
NIT sunshine and air to reach the
plants. About the only means of
checking spread of the disease, it is
said is to add water and nitrate of
soda to grow the plants out again.

70 the Citizens of Henderson

10 the Citizens of Henderson:
We the undersigned principals of
the public schools of Henderson
Township have carefully studied the
correctional program for Henderson
as outlined by the Federation for the
Welfare Of Children. The program
outlined by Mr.. w. r. Turner, Chair
nan OF the Committee on Recreation
is one of the finest things that we
have ever seen proposed for the chill
dren of our city. This will meet a
great need of our boys and girls for
place to play under supervision
that will prevent many of the very
unfortunate things that happen when
groups of boys or girls gather togeth-
er on some back lot without the pro-
per supervision.
This program will help our bows
and girls to go through the summer
with hearts happy and the days fill
ed with interesting things They
will keep off the streets and awav
from the places that teach them bad
habits and improper attitudes. Pa
rents will have a place to send their
boys and girls and be assured that
they are in good hands. We believe
that the program deserves the loyal
and Wholehearted support of the en-
tire community.
We have heard the whole program
carefully outlined by Rev. L. r. Med
lin at the Vance County P. T. A. ban
Guet on March "a; We have each stu
died the program as outlined in the
Dispatch of March 30; and we have
discussed the program in a special
called meeting attended by each of
the undersigned
The people of Henderson should
rally to this program which will make
our boys and girls happier: morally
safes, and train them for loyal and
active citizens Of the greater Hender-
son Of tomorrow.
