its list Of activities. Uso officials, with the cooperation Of Fish Lines,
We've G o%r W9ddp plans for Rs a fishing sang party to to be held on the Atlantic
y.o.1 N 1 E: Shepard, former Uso ; director in this city, and more NOR
OF on f vacation stm conceived the idea when he discovered the popularity

second and Orange street, at 1870 o'clock in the morning and return
late in the afternoon.
On this, the first excursion Of it's kind in the five-year history
Vi he Wilmington USO, the mel will be furnished with equipment
s an oat together with transportation and a campfire meal. The
tMr which is being made at a minimum of cost to the me and
5 dl guests, is expected by Shepard to become a weekly affair with
mefent spots being visited. In the summer, he theorized, deep sea
hh@ Smng will be added to the agenda with that type of fishing being
I"hEaed in somewhat the same manner.
Although complete plans include the awarding of at least two
prizes to the group-one for the largest single catch and n for the
largest string of fsh-the actual prizes have not been decided upon:
Inc trips ar open to any serviceman who registers with Shepard
agency.
nn For this corners money, the idea is a splendid one and is but
a Hm"her contribution to the job which must be done by residents of
oN area IN making fishermen realize that Southeastern North Carolina
tn furnish fishing comparable with Florida and other parts of the
Atlantic coast.
