LACK OF MAINTENANCE
ON ROAD SCORED

Residents of Hatteras Island
after all the years of isolation
from motor travel will soon have
paved route from Oregon Inlet
to Hatteras village, some so miles
southwark. Despite this move by
the State in providing what is des-
tined to become one of the most
travelled coastal tourist routes a
long the Atlantic coast, some tour
lists and residents of Hatteras Is
land, complain the State is neglect
ing currently, the proper main
tenance of the unpaved stretch be-
tween Oregon Inlet and Rodanthe.
Scores of tourists and sportsfish-
ermen from other States who have
driven over the route agree with
the residents of the Banks that
there is a lack of adequate main
tenance.
Eve don't know whether it is
the duty of North Cardinals High
way Department, or the construc-
ton firms in charge of building the
final link of the road to provide
passable road or detour," said
Capt. Levene Midget of Rodanthe,
this week. at is surely someone's
duty though, and even if we are
promised a paved road during the
coming summer, there is consid-
cradle traffic at the present time.
There is no excuse for not having
better maintenance in the bad
spots now"
E. P. White of Buxton agreed
with Midget. Residents of this
island pay gasoline taxes, are re-
quired to purchase state licenses
for their automobiles and also take
drivers tests for licenses. In addi-
ton to this thousands of dollars
have been spent by island inter
ests in the building of additional

MIGHTY SCHOOL OF
CHANNEL BASS ARE
SEEN FROM AIRPLANE

A mighty school of channel bass
maybe 600 feet long, and with
maybe ten thousand in it was OBJ
served at 3:45 Saturday afternoon
near the shore, moving northward,
abreast of the village of Salvo.
Bill Henderson, pilot, flying out
of the Manteo Airport saw the fish
on his way to Hatteras, and said
at exactly one hour later they had
moved northward some two miles
until they were abreast of the vii
lage of Waves.
Mr.. Henderson, who makes a
study of watching fish from his
plane, said at the rate they were
travelling, they would reach Ore
gon Inlet about midnight-but
that is fishermen's luck. Some 40
boats had been fishing all day
Saturday. By Sunday morning
they were probably off Kitty
Hawk.
Mr.. Henderson reported an I'M
usually large number of porpoises
in the vicinity and also swimming
on top of the water one of the
mightiest sea turtles he had ever
seen.

BEST BASS CATCH
MADE AT HATTERAS
Trolling Improving In Oregon In
let Waters Following Seige Of
Bad Weather
By AYCOCK BROWN

Although sportsfishing was i'm
proving with the weather at Ore
gon Inlet on the week end, the best
catches reported during the past
week were made in Hatteras wat
ers.
Casting from a drifting boat in
Hatteras Inlet last Sunday Mr.. and
Mrs. T. ]. Noble of Cavalier Are
ma, Richmond and AL Greico of Chi
cago landed 10 channel bass rang
ing from 81 to Al pounds.
Two days previously at Oregon
Inlet a party of Washington, D. c.
anglers had caught seven channel
bass while trolling with artificial
lures in Oregon Inlet with Capt.
Omie Tillett. The catch from a.
board Tillett's boat, the Jerry, Jr,
was the best of the season to date
from Oregon Inlet waters where
the seasons first of the copper
fighters was taken by Dover Hin
ton, Windell, on April 5, while
fishing with Capt. Willie Ethe-
ridge, Jr., aboard his new cruiser,
the Chez Chez of Wanchese.
Three Anglers Catch Is
The Mobiles of Richmond and
Greico of Chicago were fishing
from aboard Capt. Ernal Fosters
Gulf Stream curiser Albatross II
when they hit the big school of
channel bass at Hatteras Inlet on
Sunday.
Instead of trolling artificial
lures through the school, the
method usually employed by ang-
lers fishing from boats at Oregon
Inlet, the party aboard the Alba
tross II were casting 4-ounce
feather jigs and heavy chromium
plated spoons from the drifting
/ cruiser.
The Sunday catch at Hatteras
surprised the natives. 1t was a
blustery, rainy day, the kind that
one would not expect fish to be
running. The party chartering the
Albatross II had only one more
day at Hatteras, so they decided
to take a chance of getting the
fish. "They surely got them, too"
said M. L. Burrus, owner Of the
oil and EGGPLANT docks in the Outer
Banks community. 81 would have
given odds that no one would catch
fish on such a stormy day."
Looks Better at Oregon Inlet
Only two channel bass were
landed at Oregon Inlet Friday of
this week. Roy and Jean Sweval
of SO Kings Road, Chatham, N. j..
made the catch. They were trolling
Pfleuger Nos z Record Spoons.
Oregon Inlet, muddied by heavy
rains of the interior of the State
flowing seward in flooded rivers
and unfavorable winds have beer
responsible for few catches OF
channel bass at Oregon Inlet. By
Friday, the water was clearing and
guides were hoping for a change
in current season fishing luck.

A NEW LOOK PROMISED
LOST COLONY IN 1852
Some Changes Planned For Paul
Green's Drama at Fort
Raleigh
By .AYCOCK BROWN

Americas longeSt-lived SYM
phonic drama, Paul Green's inter-
nationally famous ''The Lost Col
ony," is getting a slightly new
look for its 1852 season which pre-
mieres here on Roanoke Island in
Waterside Theatre, June %, ac-
cording to William Hardy, gen.
eral manager of the production.
Changes are being planned both in
front of the footlights and on the
stage for the 18th season of the
play which dramatically tells the
tragic story of first attempts to
plant an English settlement in the
New World.
For the first time in the his
tory of the DRAMA" said Hardy,
"all the seats in the spacious am
phitheatre overlooking Roanoke
and Albemarle Sounds will be re-
served"
with the opening date of the
drama still several weeks away,
we are getting an unusual number
of requests for reserved seats"
said Mrs.s Mabel Basnight, box Of
flee manager of The Lost Colony
since it's beginning here on the
350th anniversary of the birth of
Virginia Dare in 1887. Off-season
records of the business office re-
fleet that already hundreds of tick
cts have been sold for the 1852 sea-
son of the drama. These tickets
were sold to persons who became
members of the Lost Colony's
sponsoring organization, the Roa-
noke Island Historical Association.
Invitations to become members of
the association were extended by
Governor w. Kerr Scott.
Previously a large number of
seats have been sold on a general
admission basis. Hardy said that
the decision TO make all seats re-
served was to give all patrons of
The Lost Colony chance to select
a definite location in the theatre
in advance and thus avoid having
to arrive at the drama early in or
der to be assured of seat.
New Blood in Play
/ The play itself has been given
some new blood with the addition
by Playwright Green of real
blood and thunder Indian attack
on the fort during the second act.
uel Selden feel that this new scene
Both Green and Director Sam
will be the most exciting sequence
that has happened to the drama
since its premiere on historic Roa-
noke Island in 1887" said Hardy.
Already special music for this
exciting scene which is destined
to add thrills to the tragic second
act of the drama is being arranged
by James Hart, Lost Colony or
ganist. at is believed that the
spectacle of painted warriors
swarming over the parapets, lock-
ing in death struggles with the
defending colonists and finally be-
ing driven off, win make hair
stand on end in the audience" said
Hart.

FISHERMEN AT DUCK
LAND BIG STURGEON

Duck Largest sturgeon to be
landed by commercial fishermen a.
long the Dare coast in several
years was taken by a group of
commercial fishermen on Monday,
according to Woodson Midget.
The big fish, which had apparently
come into the waters of Currituck
Sound adjacent to the villages to
spawn, measured six feet from tip
to tip. There were no scales in the
community large enough to weigh
the big fish.
The roe of sturgeon is known as
caviar. The caviar in the old days
was usually worth considerably
more than the flesh of the fish,
although the steaks of sturgeon
today bring good price on the
commercial markets.
