HAMILTON, Bermuda, June g.
One of the traditional attractions
for visitors to Bermuda before the
war, trip to the "sea garden" in
a glass -bottomed boat, has. been
resumed. To meet fish on their
own level during an underwater ex-
cursion in glass-windoWed diving
helmet, is one of the diversions now
available to Bermuda visitors.
In the "sea-gardens," which are
actually reefs that rise to within
few feet of the surface off the
coast of the islands, one can see all
kinds of magnificently colored sea
fans and coral growths as we'll as
all kinds of daintily colored fish
that peer curiously through the
glass bottom.
The expedition starts when one
boards large ferry at the dock in
Hamilton. About or miles out
side, one comes to the reefs, with
their beautiful shadings of green
and blue in the waters. The pas
sengers transfer to the glass-bot-
toned craft, which look like large

just haven't got around to it yet;
somehow the visitors always manage
to get room and something to eat
and get to know, in the process

Perhaps the reservation idea will
spread from the fact that, for the
first time, seat reservations for the
show itself will be available this
year. The great outdoor waterside

Re-enacts Mysterious Tragedy.
The Lost Colony" re-enacts one
of the most poignant tragedies in
American history, but leaves un-
answered a mystery which has
fascinated historians since the late
18th century.
Hundreds of stories based on pos
sible solutions to the mystery have
been written and legends about it
still abound in the Dare Country.
Paul Green wrote the story, which
was SO compelling that it grew from
a one-season commemorative into
an institution. And it was Mr. Green
who set the piece to music and dance
music of the old Elizabethans and
the wild dances of American Indians
with a background of organ and
choir-in combination which was
described by Herbert Graf, stage
director of New York's Metropolitan
Opera House, as "the basic art form
for the new American opera"
A company of 200 is employed.
Casting for the presentations this
year was largely matter of as
signing native Roanoke Islanders
their speeches in roles they and
their ancestors have lived for three
centuries. But the major roles and
the dancing parts which call for
wild gyrations and perfect rhythm
have been given Broadway and
radio talent, including Katherine
Gale, original Eleanor Dare in the
first production; Donald Somers.
most popular of the rumpot Old
Toms, and Roger Quinlan, who
leaves his own radio show to be-
come the historian.

confined with illness. They
hope to be at work before long.
We are all looking forward to
seeing you men in the shop and
in the best of health.
There sure are a lot of COM
mentS on the way the engineers
or whoever had any say in the
arrangement of the machinery
that is being moved into the
new section of dept. 80, and the
comments aren't so good either.
One man was actually seen
walking sideways fr m his
machine to the aisle turn face
about and go back to get some
thing from his tool box. Then
he repeated the same maneuver
to get back to his machine. He
claims there isn't room enough
for him to turn around to his
tool box unless he gets out in
the aisle. Who ever did the lay
out for this dept. is working for
the wrong concern. Or did he
just get fired for some sardine
packing house? If he didn't,
he would make a good man for
the Veterans Housing Admin
istration where room is at a
premium and that's no joke, son.

day, Al Worthington, Dept. Al,

and had several ribs broken.

CIO Marine
Strike Is
Concluded

NEW YORK, Oct. 80 LPA)-
The nationwide maritime tieup
last week entered its fourth
week but although shipping on
all coasts remained at a stand
still there was reason for spe-
cial optimism that the stoppage
would be ended shortly at least
in east and Gulf ports.
The optimism grew from ap-
proval voted a new agreement
reached between the Marine
Engineers Beneficial Association
-CIO, one of the two striking
unions, and the east and Gulf
shipowners. The MEBA's large
New York local voted 1549 to
90 to okay the new contract and
ratification was also voted by
locals in San Francisco, Port
land, Me, Boston and Norfolk.
1t was rejected in Seattle, Phil
adelphia and Houston.
Masters, Mates & Pilots Union
-AFL negotiators, through CO.
chairman Capt. William Ash, an
nounced that they had made a
new proposal to the negotiating
committee for A east and Gulf
operators dealing with the stale
mated issue of preferential hir-
ing for ships masters. While
refusing to make immediate dis
closure of details of the MM&Ps
offer, Capt. Ash described it as
something that has never been
written into a contract before"
and said that if the operators
accepted it the strike would be
ended quickly.
Terms of the MEBA's settle
ment were not announced but
one union official indicated that
it included a Is per cent pay
boost and a preferential hiring
clause.
~ Both unions are currently on
strike in all west coast ports but
no effort was expected to be
made to settle that dispute until
the East and Gulf agreements
are ratified.
