have protection the year around.
The area where they are protect
ed and where the woods have been
stocked in recent years is in the
Duck, Kitty Hawk and Mays Had
region and on Colington Island.
Manteo.-Striped bass and chan
mel bass were the fish attracting
anglers to Dare County waters
during the first 10 days of Octo-
Der and while fishing conditions
were not always favorable during
the period some good catches were
reported from Kitty Hawk and the
Albemarle Sound region, south
ward to Hatteras.
Best catch of the week reported
locally was a string of 20 strip
ers taken on the week end by Car
son Davis and his two sons, YER
non and Ralph, each residents of
Manteo. Using Huntington drones
as lures, they landed 25 on Sum
day morning, trolling in the wat
ers near Croatan Sound lighthouse
off the northern tip of Roanoke
Island. Best catch of the season
to date was 70 striped bass landed
several days ago by Capt. Will
Lewark, who was trolling alone
near Wade's Point lighthouse in
Albemarlee Sound. Capt Lewark
used homemade bucktail lures to
catch his stripers on series of
multiple rigs towed in the wake
of his boat.
Some large channel bass have
been landed from the ocean fish
ing piers at Mays Head while
smaller species of the same fish
have been taken daily from the
surf between Kitty Hawk and Ore
gon Inlet.
Largest channel bass to be TAX
en- from the surf have been landed
by anglers in the Hatteras Island
region. Bernice Balance of Bux-
ton who fishes at the point of Cape
Hatteras just about every day dur
ing the Autumn season stated this
week that most of the fish being
caught there averaged above 30
pounds.
Charles Williams, hotel operator
at Avon, reported daily catches
of channel bass along the surf at
that Outer Banks village except
when conditions were such that 1t
was impossible to keep a line out
due to stormy weather. Almost
daily catches have been made IN
the surf abreast Hatteras and
Waves villages since the first OF
the month, it was reported here
Hatteras.-At least 25 varieties
of fish have been landed with rod
and reel in the waters of Dare
County so far this year. At least
two varieties have not been TAX
en- elsewhere along the North
Carolina coast or north of Flori-
da and Bimini this season. These
two fish are blue and white mar
lin.
Last year 81 varieties of game
fish, or varieties that are taken
with rod and reel were landed in
the Hatteras waters alone, ac-
cording to Scotty Gibson, local
hotel operator. Not taken with rod
and reel here so far this season
has been tarpon.
at is still not too late to catch
tarpon, especially in the surf
where two or three were taken
with rod and reel last year." said
Gibson.
Varieties known to have been
taken so far this season here or in
waters of upper Dare County in
the Mays Head, Oregon Inlet and
Roanoke Island region include:
Blue marlin, white marlin, sail

Buxton.-While they are seldom
hunted except by islanders, the
deer season here in Cape Halter
as Woods will open on November
l and it will be legal to hunt the
little animals for one month. The
deer of these woods are the small
est, which can be legally killed,
in America.
The animals are about the same
size of an ordinary large breed
of dogs. Deerhounds such as those
used by hunters on the mainland
are never used to chase the little
animals. Instead, beagles are US
ed to chase the deer.
Only a few of the toy deer are
killed each year. Their small size,
comparable with the Keys Deer of
southern Florida, is believed to be
the result of inter-breeding
through the years of closely re-
lated animals.
The cape dattefaS deer popu-
lation is believed to be less than
200. In contrast, the mainland
area of Dare County, 80 miles
across Pamlico Sound, is one of
the heaviest deer populated re-
gions in North Carolina. The To-
cal deer are only about half the
size of the deer on the mainland,
where hunting then is permitted
from October Is until January 1.
Elsewhere in Dare County deer
have protection the year around.
The area where they are protect
ed and where the woods have been
stocked in recent years is in the
Duck, Kitty Hawk and Mays Had
region and on Colington Island.

Korean Veteran 10 Testify
Against Police in Beating
81 By The Associoted Pres.

JACKSON. Miss. March IA
25-year-old Korean veteran will
take the stand today to describe
the torture he says he received at
the hands of five Mississippi
peace officers in 1850.
The soldier. Murry (Sunshine)
Gray. colored, was flown back
here from the Korean front as a
prosecution witness in the civil
rights trial of the five officers.
Pvt. Gray was handcuffed- to a
tree and beaten, the indictment
said, in July. 1850, when he was a
civilian living at Magnolia, Miss,
about IS miles south of jackson.
The five officers allegedly took
him from a jail cell to a remote
spot outside of town where he was
