boast of the Catholic chapel of St.

Chapel on the Boardwalk, and the
newly formed Methodist center on
Channel drive of Harbor Island.
On the sport side of life at
Wrightsville, fishing rates highly.
At the north end of the beach the
Atlantic View fishing pier attracts
hundreds of amateur fishermen,
and at the south end the anglers
drop their hooks from the luna
pier.
Local fishing experts say that
mullet can be caught late in
March and all during April. Bass
/; fishing is supposed to be at its
best in May and June. The teauti-
full speckled mackerel hand
around in June and July, and the
lull for anglers usually comes in
August. September and even
October is the time for spotted
trout. All during the summer null
let can be hooked in the surf,
and the experts bring home floun-
der. In deeper water, 80 to SO
miles from the coast sail fish,
sword fish, and large drum are
there for the fighting.
A movement is now under foot
to popularize tuna fishing along
the Carolina coast, including the
waters off Wrightsville Beach.
Tuna start their annual trek from
the Florida Keys to Newfoundland
in April and should be passing
here in droves during May. Tuna
is not an easy fish to land. He
usually puts up a several hour,
tooth and nail fight and stays in
the deep waters Of the Gulf
stream. But once he's landed, it's
a real victory for the man with
the weary arms on the reeling end
of the line.
Just as George Moore came
here in 1850 to take advantage of
the cooling breezes, SO will thou
sands of fun-loving tourists hit the
road for Wrightsville Beach, in
1947. This year, however, they will
find not only cooling breeze. They
will find also famous dance bands,
fish that are hungry for bait, sail
boats and motor cruisers, white
sandy beaches, cooled by the surft,
and everything that an American
wants for summer pleasure.

Pfungstadt was where Stripes"

abandoned in 1916 in favor of
Julius Streicher's Der Stuermer'
plant at Altdorf il Bavaria. The
shift back was made in order
speed up the circulation of the
five daily editions, most of which
are sent off by train.
Sergeant Lee Patterson, of Jer-
sey Shore, Pa, is conceded to
have the most nerve = shattering
job on the paper. A former glider
medic, who landed with the 82nd
Airborne Division at Nijmegen in
1914, Patterson thought things

each week. Most are concerned

ment of Negro troops.
Of the 200 letters, about 20 get
into print. All are rigidly scruti-
nized for authenticity since the
embarrassment last year over the
appearance in "B Bag" of a com
plant from "a generals wife"
The writer shrilly criticized hav-
