the outside of doors and adjacent
walls often will help.
Some recent work with poi
soned bats offer some promise in
fly control research. Exposure TO
animals, however, dangers involv-
ed in handling the poison while
mixing the bait and ability to
draw" the flies from adjacent
areas and breeding places are
factors yet to be demonstrated.
The general use of the bait may
not take place this summer but
release may take place if tests
prove its value. One must study
the problem in each case and use
sanitation, screens, sprays, and
even the fly swatter, as 1858 may
be a serious fly season." Raper

ways, canals and canal banks are
still the property of the Drain
age District formed 40 years ago.
Hitting on the idea that the
canal banks could be converted
into roads and firelanes to COM
bat fires and control game. Dick
O'Neal, through Attorney Will
Jams contacted Hyde County Re-
preventative, Russell Swindell
requesting that he pass an act
of the 1853 Legislature allowing
the canal banks to be used for
these purposes.
Representative Swindell didn't
favor this blanket idea and con-
fined his legislation to the Out
fall canal at New Holland.
AS a result of this legislation
the clerk of court for Hyde
County appointed commission
composed of w. T. Howard, Otis
Mason and w. T. Baum to accept
bids on proposed road from
New Holland to Pamlico Sound.
O'NeaPs bid was accepted by the
three man commission and he has
completed the road. He has also
constructed and operates a
shrimp house at the mouth of the
canal where he buys shrimp from
commercial shrimpers and also
furnishes the shrimpers with
supplies.
The new road has opened up
a heretofore vast country that
abounds in deer and bear as well
as making available one of the
best sport fishing areas in Pam

NEW ROAD MAKES
NEW HOLLAND
NEAR OCRACOKE
Interesting History Recount
ed About Lake Malta
muskeet Project
By CARLTON NORRIS

Although Ocracoke Island is
part of Hyde County, very few
people on the mainland have
ever visited this village on the
outer banks for the distance is
80 miles by water from Swan
Quarter and there is no estab-
lished passenger service.
But a newly established road
may come to be the means of
bringing Ocracoke much closer
to the mainland in the near fu-
ture, say the people around
Mattamuskeet Lake. At the pre-
sent time, a letter mailed to
Ocracoke from Swan Quarter,
must travel a distance close to
200 miles to Atlantic and thence
80 miles by boat to reach its
destination. Utilizing the new
road could cut the distance to
eXactely 18 miles, according to
o. L. Williams, Swan Quarter
attorney who believes it neces-
sary to secure an act of the Leg
islature to make the road posi-
BILE.
The new road runs from High
way 264 at New Holland along
the Outfall canal to Pamlico
Sound, a distance of seven miles
and was built by Dick O'Neal of
New Holland.
In establishing his seven mile
road, O'Neal discovered that the
old Mattamuskeet Drainage Dis
trict that was created under the
general drainage laws of North
Carolina was still in effect and to
utilize the Outfall Canal bank
for a road, it would be necessary
for legislature to be passed per-
hitting use of the canal bank.
The Mattamuskeet Drainage
District, was created in 1910-1911
to lower the water level in and
around Mattamuskeet Lake,
which was then owned by the
Board of Education. The Board
then sold the lake to the South
ern Land Reclamation Company.
There are $4,000 acres in the lake
proper and 100000 acres in the
drainage district.
The Southern Land Reclama-
titn established what was then
the Worlds largest pumping
plant at New Holland, which
was capable of pumping 2,000,00G
gallons of water per minute into
the Outfall canal which in turn
carried the water to Pa,nlico
Sound, seven miles away. Malta
muskeet Lake was pumped dry
and kept drained by a series of
canals and the pumping plant at
New Holland. The company then
proceeded to farm $4,000 acres
of the lake bottom and produced
so much grain that existing stor-
age space was insufficient to take
care of the crops. The lake was
then sold to the New Holland
Corporation
Of course it is a matter of
Hyde County history that the
whole project failed when it was
found the modern machinery
could not operate on the lake
bottom during wet weather and
in 1853 the lake was sold to the
Federal Government for 1926, 900
as wildlife refuge and the
pumping plant is now a COM
pletely modern hunting lodge
and hotel, catering to sportsmen
from all over the world.
During the time when the
pumping plant was in operation,
an act of the legislature was pass
ed allowing farmers around the
lake to withdraw from the drain
age district but the Mattamus-
Laot Draipaoe District had never

Dodgers Report Job
Wide Open as Reese
Refuses Managership
BY the Assoeiated Press

BROOKLYN, Nov. 6.-The
Brooklyn Dodgers hung a wa
cancy''' sign on the managers.
door at Ebbets Field today and
claimed they Ehave no one under
serious consideration for the job.
Peewee Reese, the Dodgers
star shortstop and captain who
figured as the No. / candidate,
made up his mind last night he
wasn't interested.
Maybe I have made a mis-
take-I will know that in a
couple of years." the popular
Peewee said at his home in
Louisville as he declared him
self out.
II think I have done the right
thing. Anyway, that's the way
it is, and I'll never be sorry no
matter how things might turn
out"
Ever since they failed to come
to terms with Charley Dresser
in MIDI October, the Dodgers
have let it be known-without
saying anything official-that
Reese would have a chance to
say Eyes" or mo" before they
went shopping elsewhere.
Last week Buzzy Bavasi, vice
president of the club, met with
Reese for an hour in Columbus,
Ohio, and discussed the situation.
Reese said he wasn't offered
the job but he knew Bavasi was
trying to find out how he felt
about it.
1T was my impression he was
not interested in being a player
manager, Bavasi said last night,
shortly before Reese made it
official.
Reese said Buzzy got the right
idea.
II still think can play a cou-
pie of more years." Reese said
The deal apparently would
have specified that Reese both
play and manage since Bavasi
said Reese always has been
counted upon to be the clubs
regular shortstop next season.
Have no Hot Prospects.
Bavasi declared that it would
be incorrect to say the club had
any hot prospects for the job
at the moment despite what
ycu may read or hear. OF course
you probably won't believe that"
He added that it would be
some time before a manager
would be hired, definitely not
within the next two weeks.

Vice President Fresco Thompson
are in Vero Beach, Fla, inspect
ing the Dodgers spring training
camp.
To Stay at Least a Week. =
They expected to remain in

Among those mentioned have
