general, expressed admiration
for the display of administra-
tive sense which characterized
the President-elect's direction
Of the meetings.
It probably will be surpriS-
ing to most people outside the
Government to learn that
cabinet meetings for years.
under the present and pre-
vious administrations, have
been haphazard affairs. Usu-
ally the department head who
is most concerned with a prob
lem before the cabinet is ex-
pected to lead the discussion
and to get his viewpoint ap-
proved by the President alone.
There is little inclination by
others present to offer argu-
mentS in dissent. President
elect Eisenhower Is known to
favor the freest possible dis
cussion so that the Judgment
will be that Of his cabinet
rather than that of only one
or two individuals, including
himself.
Another thing that hasn't
been done very much in the
past relates to the keeping Of
records of what a cabinet
meeting does. Individual cabi-
net officers make a note Of
problems affecting their de-
partments, but there has been
no secretary or chief of cabi-
net appointed who keeps the
proceedings and makes a rec
ord OF the discussion for future
reference, as is the case in the
British and French cabinets
The fact that President-elect
Eisenhower means to have at
all cabinet meetings his chief
administrative assistant, Gov.
Sherman Adams of New
Hampshire. is a good sign. In
most administrations even the

budget within $40 billion.
Among the areas into which
he will cast his probing eye
will be foreign aid of all sorts.
There he may find himself in
conflict with Gen.. Eisen-
hover as to the extent of re-
ductions, and also with Mr..
Dodge, at least from the way
the new Budget Director is
talking. The Senator likewise
envisages fairly substantial
cuts in the defense program,
and there, too, he may find
himself in disagreement with
the general in the White
House. The defense program
is not within the purview of
the Foreign Relations Com
mittee, but of the Armed
Services Committee. However,
the Senator as party leader will

Chairman Wiley seven votes to

the eighth Republican, Sena-
tor Hickenlooper. will tend to-

A second line of defense for
Gen. Eisenhower on questions
Of national security is the
Armed Services Committee.
One of the strongest commit
tees on the Hill, it was heavily
reinforced by both parties.
Republicans gave it Mrs. Smith
OF Maine, Hendrickson, Case,
Duff and Cooper. Democrats

Force by making place there

Symington of Missouri.
Democrats several times
found it expedient to let both

Relations hold joint hearings

tions. The net was favorable
to the White House as it would
be again.

System and orderliness" is
the phrase that best describes
the extraordinary pre-inaugu-
ration cabinet sessions which
President-elect Eisenhower has
been holding in New York.
Nothing like it has ever hap

policies and procedures. Sitting
with the cabinet also were
the Vice President-elect and
heads Of several important in
dependent agencies of the Gov

With characteristic simplic-

a prepared agenda of items.
EXtraneous and irrelevant mat
ters were excluded and the
President-elect concentrated
the attention of the group on
the issue at hand as they went
through the list.

was to get a conference

But the opportunity also was
afforded for each of those pres

another. It SO happens that
many of those present had
not met each other before
their appointments to high Of

together intimately, President

ART AT OCRAcOKE
STIRS EVEN FATHERS

Ocracoke. - Children of Ocra-
coke School are always interested
in Shrimp Boats, and when a
prize was offered this month for
the best drawings of shrimp
boats, practically everyone in
grades one through six respond
ed. Even fathers at home got in
terested in the contest, as some
of the drawings brought in by
first graders testified. But when
it was announced that this was
! mo help" contest, fathers drop
ped out of the running and the
youngsters turned in some good
work of their own. In fact second
place in the primary grades was
won by a first grader, Miss Mar
garet Spencer, and first place was
won by a second grader, Miss
Betty Howard. In the elementary
grades, through six, first prize
was won by Lindsey Howard, of
the sixth grade, and second prize
was divided between Ann ESham,
Grade 5, and Garry Cullison,
Grade A. The drawing showed a
great deal of originality and at
the same time it was evident that
certain Ocracoke Shrimp Boats
were favorites with the young
Sters.
Another contest was sponsored
in oil paintings, many of which
the elementary and high school
children have painted in the last
few weeks. A. brother and sister
shared Wrist place, Murray Full
cher in the 9th grade and Ellen
Marie Fulcher in the 9Th grade.
The former shose a large horses
head for his subject; the latter a
bowl of peoples. Second prizes
went to David Esham, 7th grade,
Ursula Austin, 7th grade, and
Lindsey Howard, 5th grade. Mrs.
Selma Spencer, of the faculty,
entered a painting, not for prize
purposes, but to illustrate the in
teresting and beautiful use of sea
oats and cochinas on a plywood
frame upon which her painting
was mounted. One of the local
stores is selling the pictures to be
painted, and among them are
Horses, Shipwrecks, Old-Time
Automobiles, Flying Geese, Dan
GERS, and many other interesting
subjects.

OCT. FISHING DRAWS
FISHERS AS WELL AS
FISH TO OCRACOkE
By ALICE K. RoNDTHALER

October Is the Dig monIn IoI
sports fishing at Ocracoke, and
this year there were more fisher
men here than in many a year,
and all were delighted with their
good catches. In the past week
over half the states in the United
States were represented by their
prominent anglers. Mr.. and Mrs.
c. L. Gilbert came for their
fourth year all the way from
far-off Texas, staying and fishing
with Capt. Walter O'Neal. Mr..
Gilbert says that on his first trip
they caught IA fish the very first
day; on this, their fourth trip,
they caught over 100. It's no
wonder they travel 1925 miles to
fish at Ocracoke.
Danny Garrish, editor-in-chief
of the Ocracoke School News,
took time out last week to in
terview a number of the fisher
men here, and came in with
news from S. Arthur Love OF
Norwood, Pennsylvania, that he
has fished in California, Mexico,
New England and many other
places, but he likes Ocracoke
best. In fact he produced pen and
paper and wrote the following
sentiment:
I've travelled North,
I've travelled South,
I've travelled in the West,
But of all the places l have
been,
OCRACOKE, like BEST"
Stopping in at Wahab Village
Hotel, which has been crowded
to capacity this past month,
Danny found most of the men
were out surf-casting, but he got
in a few words with Mr.. and Mrs.
William T. Starr of Gastonia,
N. c., who are here for their
seventh season. Mr.. Starr does
the fishing; Mrs. Starr enjoys
Ocracoke because it is so restful,
and she does a lot Of reading
while they are here. Mr.. Starr
said, Il always make one big
catch at Ocracoke" AS for ang
lers Mooney of Reidsville and
Crews of Kernersville, they &C
tually can't remember how many
years they have made Ocracoke
their fishing ground, but they
are fully aware that they have
caught hundreds and hundreds of
fish. Mr.. MONEYS brother, in
business in Caracas, Venezuela,
gets a long vacation every two
years and always spends the
greater part of it at Ocracoke.
They keep an old A-Model Ford
down here, all painted up with
aluminium paint, so you can't
help but see it coming and get
off the road, and several times a
year Mooney from Reidsville and
the A-Model are seen in action at
Ocracoke.
By this time Danny had talked
so little, but listened so atten-
lively, that he developed a tooth
ache, so another reporter, named
above, had to take over and do
a little more scouting around.
Down at the James and Charlie
Williams homes she found all the
porches crowded with enthus-
iastic fishermen, one group from
Shelby, another from Taylors-
vile, all of whom were here for
their fourth or fifth season. Rest

for the only two runs the Mats
got last night as they were
blanked, 20, by Don Larsen'S
five-hitter in the first game of
a double-header with the Browns,

second game, 81. in IL innings.
There was one stretch this
season when Vernon was hot
and the Mats were cold, but gen.
orally they've strung along with
Mickey. going well when he goes
well. When the Mats made their
disastrous 3-13 trip in. mid-July,
Mickey batted .354 but the Mats
sagged anyway.
Vernon has obtained two or
more hits in So of the Mats
games this season and they've
won 38 of them for a .655 aver
age. There have been 81 games
in which Mickey has collected
one or no hits. The Mats have
won only 80 of those for a 1895
mark.

The Mats have won 10 games
and Mickey has scored at least
one run or batted in a run in
all but IL of them. He didn't
figure in the Mats offense at all
in those II games, but rare have
been the occasions when they've
won without Mickey's aid.
Vernon gave them a big lift
before 4,216 customers at Crit
fifth Stadium last night. Enter
ing the bottom of the 10th in
ming in the second game the
Mats were whipped, 10, but Kite
Thomas batted for Chico Mar

ran for him and Eddie Yost got
