Probable intensification of Ger

points where England's navy and
shore based aircraft would be least
able to protect them.
Extension of the lines of the neu-
trality patrol as disclosed by Presi-
dent Roosevelt at his press confer
ence yesterday was interpreted in
some quarters as indicating a de-
cision to make virtually the entire
western half of the Atlantic as
safe as possible for British conveys
but without actually assigning United
States ships to convoy duty.
Senator Hill, Democrat, of Ala
bama, the administration whip, as
serted that American conveys are
necessary in order to get United

Lonnie and Nat FutCh, the Boca

Anglers at Monteo Bietime Takers
Capt. Muckie Is Unusual Skipper

as he. Sam and Dewey Tillett and
Don caught % big channel bass
during that first September after
noon. Even they didn't count the
numbers they fought and released
on succeeding DAYS but there IS no
doubt that the stories about them
was what brought a few additional
Washington fishermen down the
following year. And more the next.
In 1885 the exceptional run of blues
found them fishing here by the
hundreds, but only because new
road had been built over the dunes
and Roanoke Island and Oregon
Inlet were easy to reach. To-day one
hardly can remember or visualize
the Manteo of those early days for
it has grown. 1t will continue to
do so. and when the time arrives
that the catching of white and
blue marlin is an everyday occur
ance it will be ready to care for the
influx of anglers who will come from
every section of the East.
Capt. Joe Mackie. skipper of
marlin fisherman, is back at Manteo
and ready for another search this
summer for the big fish. They have
been seen many times, so there is
no doubt they are here, and they
have been caught off Hatteras just
40 miles below. We believe Joe
eventually will boat one. 1t might
be this summer.
Mackie Big Help to Sport.
Joe Mackie is one who helps make
sports fishing the glamorous pastime
it is, for who could expect to find
guy with the appearance of Greek
god guiding fishing parties, study
ing for his masters degree in music,
and at night acting in the pageant
THE Lost Colony? That's Joe,
grand boy and a swell guide.
The writer's are to be the guests
of The Lost Colony" this evening,
after which they will board the
State boats for an overnight trip
down to Hatteras to fish again. Tom
Eaton will be the official host. as
sisted by Aycock Brown, the bard
of the banks, up from Southport
with Bill Keziah, and the main idea
is to show us that the big fish are
here. There never has been any
doubt in our mind about that fact,
but we want to see again to make
sure.
With many Washington anglers
already down, nearly 40 more are
going to crowd Hatteras. but George
Sutton. with Clair Mccullough, is
living right aboard his Happy DAYS,
as are the Larry Parkers aboard
their Maria, but it's bound to be q
swell party and good fishing.
