LAKES CREATED
ON DARE BEACHES

Kill Devil Hills - The fresh
ponds of Mays Head, some of
which are said to be BOTTOM
les" have long been considered
one of the natural wonders of
this area. The ponds" or the
deepest ones are in Mays Head,
Kitty Hawk and Duck woods.
One of the largest natural lakes
is on the open beach and it is
planned to use the water from
it as a source of supply when GER
tain utilities are established here
by the recently created Sanitary
District of the area.
In addition to the natural lakes
and ponds, chain of small pools
have been created in recent years
on the Southern Shores region.
Frank Stick, managing director
of Southern Shores, stated as the
lakes were being dredged that
they would serve several pur-
poses, mainly drainage and pest
control, but also as swimming
pools and fishing spots.
Following the Southern Shores
experiment other real estate de-
velopmentS of the area are Great
ing lakes by dredging in low
beach areas. One of the largest
of these man-made lakes is now
nearing completion at Kill Devil
Hills. B. M. Hedrick is the man
who is having the lake created.

ACRES OF CHANNEL BASS
DESTROY NYLON SHAD NETS

Frisco.-Channel bass, acres of
them milling in the waters of
Hatteras Blight this week, did con-
siderable damage to commercial
fishing nets, especially those made
of nylon which had been set along
the beach for shad.
Archie E. Scarborough and John
Wasili of Frisco declared they had
never seen so many channel bass
but instead of becoming entangled
in the meshes of their nylon nets,
the big fish went right through
them resulting in considerable
damage.
eve landed only six of the big
fish," said Scarborough, "and there
must have been hundreds or may
be thousands of them"
Channel bass were first report.
ed off Hatteras about three weeks
ago. Since that time when several
were caught in trawl nets in 20 to
80 fathoms of water off Diamond
Shoals commercial fishermen with
pound nets in Pamlico Sound have
caught several. The fish are run
ming large and they have shown
up earlier than in any previous
season.
To date, no channel bass have
been landed with rod and reel. Las
year the first was taken with roc
and reel at the Point of Cape Hat
teras near Frisco on March 2;
while the first taken at Oregon
Inlet was landed April 5.

COAST GUARD AIDS
APPLICANTS FOR NEW
PORT SECURITY CARDS

NORFOLK, Va.-To cut down on
time lost by Virginia and North
Carolina commercial fishermen,
longshoremen and other water
front workers in applying for
Coast Guard Port Security Iden-
LITIGATION Cards, the Coast Guard
is planning to have mobile card
application units visit seacoast
areas in the two states, Rear Adm.
Russell E. Wood, USCG, command
er, Fifth Coast Guard District, an
nounced today.
The plan will eliminate the need
for card applicants to make often
times lengthy trips to regular card
issuing offices.
Coast Guard group commanders
at Chincoteague and Virginia
Beach, Va, and Cape Hatteras,
Morehead City and Southport, N.
c., will provide assistance in fill
ing out applications and arrange
suitable dates for mobile teams to
interview applicants at convenient
locations within their areas.
Since the Coast Guard process
ing teams are expected to make
only one visit to each community,
persons not processed by the mo-
bile units will have to apply in
person at Captain of the Port of
fees in Norfolk, Va; Baltimore,
Md, or Wilmington, N. C.
For the past two years the Coast
Guard has been issuing the cards
to persons whose occupation re-
quires them to visit waterfront
properties which might be placed
under guard and restricted by the
Captain of the Port in the interest
of safety or national security.
Rear Admiral Wood stated that
the Coast Guard is currently ac-
cepting applications for port Sc
curity cards from commercial fish
ermen, who, in the course of, their
work, go in and out of bays, sounds,
inlets and rivers which might
stand the chance of being restrict
ed.
The admiral cautioned that per-
sons who may be required to pos
sess port security cards should ap-
ply before restricted areas are es-
tablished. A minimum of six weeks
is required to complete investiga-
ton and issue a card.
Information concerning all phas-
es of the port security Identified
ton card program can be secured
at any Coast Guard lifeboat sta
ton on the Virginia and North
Carolina coasts, group command
ers' offices or at Captain of the
Port offices in Norfolk and New
port News, Va; Baltimore, Md,
and Wilmington, N. C.

BOOSTING THE BOOSTER

Boost your city, boost your FRIEND
Boost the church that you attend.
Boost the street on which you're dwelling,
Boost the goods that you are selling.
Boost the people round about you,
They can get along without you.
But success will quicker find them
If they know that you're behind them.
Boost for every forward movement;
Boost for every new improvement;
Boost the man for whom you labor;
Boost the stranger and the neighbor.
Cease to be chronic knocker;
Cease to be progress blocker
If you'd make your city better
Boost it to the final letter.

Spencer Asks Neighbors
To Curb Delinquency

District Commissioner Samuel
Spencer last night urged each
District neighborhood to set up
small juvenile delinquency COM
mittees to supplement the ef-
forts of the Youth Council, head
ed by Mrs. Henry Gratten Doyle.
Speaking to the Lamond
Heights Citizens Association, he
said these small units would 'get
it down on the neighborhood
level, where people know their
immediate problems and could
act upon local conditions"
He suggested that individual
citizens take youngsters under
their wings and guide them along
constructive, rather than de-
Structive lines.
Citizens associations, Mr..
Spencer added, should develop
recreational facilities and organ
ize groups of boys and girls TO
participate in play programs.
The meeting, held in the
Christian Reformed Church,
5911 New Hampshire avenue,
NE, was directed by William
Karr, association president.
