BUS LINE
PLANS NEW SCHEDULE

AS result of the new paved
highway on Hatteras Island and
public demand, Hatteras-Manteo
Bus Line officials plan to add one
round trip daily beginning on
Monday, July %.
The new schedule will leave
Manteo during the early morning,
making one stop at the intersec-
ton of us Highways Cd, 264 and
1853 and the Hatteras Highway at
Mays Head to pick up vacationists
who wish to make the trip down
the Outer Banks. The present
schedule originates at Hatteras at
s o'clock and goes to Manteo, and
beginning the return trip from
Manteo at 2 o'clock. There will
be stops in all villages.
The Hatteras-Manteo Bus Line
is owned and operated by three
brothers, Anderson, Stockton and
Harold Midget. Their first sched-
uled run was IA years ago on July
%. Since then the bus line has
received national publicity as be-
ing the toughest bus trip in the
world" During most of the lines
history trips have been made over
roadless beaches.
The new highway has cut down
the running time between Halter
as and Manteo to about two and
a half hours. In the old days it
took from six to seven hours to
make the trip-a distance of only
65 miles

MORE PLANS FOR
HATTERAS ISLE
ROAD FESTIVITIES
Bv AYCOCK BROWN

Several lively and interesting
events are scheduled to take place
at Rodanthe on Hatteras Island
when the seven villages combine
as hosts for the celebration on
Saturday, August Is marking the
completion of the new paved road.
Capt. Levene Midget of Rodan-
the, local chairman of the event at
Rodanthe stated today Thurs
day. that at a meeting Wednes-
day night, several events were
planned including foot and sack
races, a ball game between the
Island Coast Guard and the Is
land civilians.
Also planned, upon approval
from headquarters will be Coast
Guard capsize drill in the Ro-
danthe soundside harbor, and a
rowing race between Coast Guard
personnel. The Coast Guard will
be featured in the big celebration
and that is only natural because
Rodanthe and all of Hatteras Is
land have long lived by this Ser
vice which has played an import
ant role in the life of Hatteras
for many years.
High ranking Coast Guard and
State officials will be present for
the celebration. There will be some
speeches, but the event will not
be overloaded with addresses.
Although it Is generally con-
coded that there are more pref
ty girls per capita on Hatteras
Island than anywhere else in the
world, the sponsors of the cele-
bratiOn have not yet decided
whether there will be a bathing
beauty contest to name the low
lest of the lOvlies on the Outer
Banks. Already a Hatteras Is
land girl. Agnes Fulcher Of Bux-
tOr-On-Cape Hatteras holds the
title of Miss Dare County of
1851"
Il Arrangements are underway to
operate a shuttIe-bus service from
the Oregon Inlet ferry southwark
to Rodanthe and continuously, on
the day of the celebration. This
will be handled by the Midget

congregation, the Manteo Baptist
church is being torn down this

MY AIM
live for those who love me, whose hearts are
kind and true,
For the heaven that smiles above me, and awaits
my spirit, too;
For all human ties that bind me, for the task my
God assigned me;
For the bright hopes yet to find me, and the good
that can do
live to learn their story who suffered for my
sake;
To emulate their glory and follow in their wake:
Bards patriots, martyrs, sages the heroic of all
ages,
Whose deeds crowd History's pages and Times
great volume make.
live to hold communion with all that is divine,
To feel there is union twixt Natures heart and
mine; ...
To profit by affection reap truth from fields of
fiction,
Grow wiser from conviction and fulfill Gods
grand design.
live to hail the season, by gifted ones foretold,
When man shall live by reason, and not alone by
gold;
When man to man united, and every wrong thing
righted,
The whole world shall be lighted, as Eden was
of old.
l live for those who love me, for those who know
me true;
For the heaven that smiles above me, and awaits
my spirit too; ,h@
For the cause that lacks assistance for the wrong
that needs resistance
For the future in the distance, and the good that
/ can do.
