TRAVELLERS CATCH CHANNEL
BASS OFF CAPE HATTERAS

Hatteras.-Proof that red drum,
the famous channel bass of sports
fishermen migrate to and from
deep water off shore here instead
of travelling north and south along
the coast, may result from recent
catches in trawl nets in deep water
several miles from the surf.
AT least two trawlers operating
in Is or more fathoms of water
some 10 or more miles off the
coast during the past week have
caught channel bass. One boat
brought in about 600 pounds of the
fish which individually weighed
from three to 10 pounds each.
Another trawler brought in five
channel bass that averaged from
20 to 80 pounds EACH.
General opinion has been that
these game fish migrated north
and south along the coast, and
close to the surf" said NJ. L. Bur-
rus, local fish and oil dealer.
Catching the species in trawl nets
operating in water up to 20 faith
oms deep, several miles off the
coast, may be proof that when the
angler cannot get channel bass to
take bait or lures in the surf and
inlet, the fish have gone to deep
water off shore, and not to q south
erly area"

FISHERMEN SEEK
TO END FISHING
D )F LONG METERS
Hatteras Island Fishermen
Ask County Board to Close
Area; Dry Law Also
Asked

A petition was signed by many
citizens of Hatteras Island, was
presented to the Board of Com
missioners this week, urging that
the Board seek to get legislation to
prohibit long net fishing in the
area inside the reef between Kings
Point and New Inlet, these waters
being adjacent to Hatteras Island,
and on which the residents stake
net fishermen depend.
The petition sets forth that the
long nets are especially destruc-
tive to small fish, that the fishing
of such nets in this area is taking
a livelihood from many people who
have no other place in which to
fish.
The Board, without endorsing
the petition, considered it out of
their jurisdiction, but forwarded
it to the Board of Conservation
and Development.
A petition, requesting a bill pro-
hibiting the sale of beer, or other
intoxicants in the whole area was
acted upon favorably, and on mo-
ton by Commissioner Lloyd Scar
borough and seconded by James
Scarborough, the Board voted to
ask Representative Etheridge to
pass a law calling for a referen-
dunn on the matter.
: Considerable antagonism has de-
veloped among the two groups of
fishermen, and some of the long
net fishermen from Wanchese have
reported getting their nets badly
torn in the area by barbed wire
and old automobile tenders. These
fishsrmen believe that residents in
the area of controversy, have car
ried out the junk and dumped it
overheard to discourage long net
fishing.

A MARINE PILOT
HAD CLOSE CALL
IN HYDE WATERS
Cherry Point Flier's Exper-
fence Narrowing Eight
Miles Off Engel-
hard

CHERRY POINT-A three-mile
glide in a warplane with a dead
engine, a ditch" landing in water
several miles from the mainland,
and more than an hour afoat on a
life raft in the chilly waters of
Pamlico Sound-all this and more
happened to a Second Marine Air
Wing pilot in one hectic afternoon
Tuesday of last week. Fishermen
who saw the plane go down from
afar, reported all was lost.
Unhurt and apparently unshak-
en- after his narrowing brush with
death, Major Leo P. Frohe II calm
ly chatted with his flying mates
of Marine Attack Squadron-211
and told how a combination of his
previous training, perfect" sur
vival equipment and smooth res
cue work saved his life.
Modestly emitting any mention
of his own cool actions in the
"ditching" operation, he major re-
lated his grueling experience from
the time his ADJ Skyraider first
coughed and sputtered, until he
had been safely deposited at the
Elizabeth City Coast Guard sta
ton.
Major Frohe was flying an in
strument training hop over Pam
lico Sound, about eight miles east
northeast of Engelhard, when the
crisis began. 81 had been on in
struments for about 10 or Is min
utes," the major recalled, when
suddenly the engine coughed, sput-
tered--and then stopped"
Diagnosing the trouble as "fuel
starvation" Major Frohe began
operating the electric booster in an
attempt to restore full power to
the giant AID engine, but with lit
tie success. When the engine fail
ed to respond, he notified his wing
man, Second Lieutenant Alex Nor
A1oOii, anu DSSdh SuL NSyIIS Tic
area for the best location to ditch
his plane.
81 picked out a little island that
l thought l could reach" the major
said, "and began my glide. Lieu
tenant Morrison meanwhile radio
ed the 'Mayday' call for me and
was going to hang around until
was picked up" Poo
Major Frohe estimated that his
glide covered at least three miles
before he finally pancaked his
plane on the water. "When l saw
that l couldn't make the island,
l made an easy turn into the wind
and kept hauling back on the stick
to get my speed down to 80 knots
(about SO mph). set her down
about 1000 yards from the island"

TWO ACCIDENTS
OCCUR IN TRAFFIC
OVER WEEK END
Careless and Reckless DriV-
ing Charges Brought
Against CoIored Car
Operator

Two automobile accidents over
the week end were Investigated by
Highway Patrolman r. c. Holt. In
one case, charges of careless and
reckless driving were brought
against one of the drivers. No one
was injured.
The first and more serious &C
cident occurred at o'clock Satur-
day night when a 1910 Mercury
owned and operated by George
Washington King, Negro, of Man
Ueo, colGded with the rear end of
a 1912 Chevrolet truck owned by
st. Clair Basnight and operated by
Cleston Parker, colored. Both We
nicles were headed south on High
way 345. Parker said he was going
about 80 miles an hour and King
claimed to be going 40 or As miles
an hour.
The car was damaged to the ex-
tent of about $500. The truck was
only slightly damaged. Charges
were preferred against King.
The second accident happened
at 4:45 Sunday afternoon, about
$50 feet south of the monument
road, on Highway 1853. Mrs. Deli
M Saunders of Wanchese told the
patrolman that she had pulled out
in front Of Perry's store and was
driving only about 20 miles an
hour. Martin Campusano, Jr., of
the Coast Guard cutter Narcissus
at Portsmouth, Va, said he was
| driving about 40 miles an hour.
Although he saw the car ahead,
he did not realize how slowly it
was moving. When he started to
pass it, oncoming traffic forced
him back into his own lane and
the front of his car struck the rear
bumper of Mrs. Saunders automo-
bile.
Damage to the Coast Guards
mans car was estimated at $3.50
and that to Mrs. Saunders car at
about $50.
