lators for a few dollars per acre,
before being sold to Mr.. Lyon.
The Lyon millions headed to-
ward reality forty years ago when
mechanic enroute home by street
car after a days work, watched a
lady with a T-model dodge the
street car and hit a light pole. 1t
occurred to the mechanic that if
she had some sort of device on the
front of her T-model to hit poles
with it would save the car.
Albert Lyon had one dollar in
his pocket, which was all he had in
the world in cash. Within three
years his pocket had million dol
lars in it. He invented the bumper
and patented it.
Twenty seven years ago he came
down here with Van Camper He'll
ner, the "baby millionaire" and
Mr.. Beach. He bought the land
from Mr.. Austin and Mr.. Austin
built the club house for him. His
associate, Mr.. Stelwagon is stay
ing on here, in a house rented for
residence.
Heilner and even Rex Beach,
sort of wore out their welcome
with Mr.. Lyon. They shot too many
geese, caught too many fish just
for the fun of it. One day Mr..
Lyon saw some sportsmen take
$50 drum from the ocean on his
property and leave them half-bur-
led in the sand. That ended pub

carefully put the fish back in the

Seaman Orville L. Tillett, USCG,
2l-year-old son of Mr., and Mrs.
Thomas N. Tillett of Manns Har-
Dor was honorably discharged from
the U. S. Coast Guard last week in
Norfolk after three years OF serv-

At the time of his discharge, Til

After completing three months
of recruit training at Cape May,
N. j., he went aboard the Cape

ceived his transfer to Roanoke

PELTCANS MOVE NORTHWARD
ON DARE COASTLAND

Kitty Hawk - Brown Pelicans,
which have been giving the Outer
Banks an ornithological tropical
look since the late 1920s when the
odd seashore birds established a
rookery on an island near Royal
Shoals in Pamlico Sound, have
gradually moved northward each
year along the Carolina coast. This
year flocks of pelican have been
sighted at Kitty Hawk, and va
rious other points in Dare County.
They appear in large numbers
at Cape Hatteras and Ocracoke,
Near, the latter island pelicans

Mr.. Lyons generosity did not
stop with wildlife. He has been a
generous friend to the whole of
Hatteras Island, but especially to
the community nearest his club

SHRIMP SEASON
OPENING MONDAY
IN N. CAROLINA
breakdown Promised on
Non-Residents without
Fear or Favor"

Raleigh, May-The season for
taking shrimp from waters I'M
der control of the State of North
Carolina will open at 1901 am,
Monday, May 10, Director Ben E.
Douglas of the State Department
of Conservation and Develop
ment announced today.
Shrimping operations day and
night will be allowed in all State
controlled waters except those of
New River and its tributaries,
where the taking of shrimp will
not be allowed until June Is,
Douglas said.
Douglas said the decision to
open the season on May 10 was
taken on the advice and recon-
mendation of William A. Ellison,
Jr., director of the Institute of
Fisheries Research, university of
North Carolina, at Morehead
City. Ellison and his aides have
been conducting surveys of coast
al waters in an effort to deter
mine he quantity and quality of
shrimp now inhibiting State wa
tiers.
The CID director, whose de-
partment included the Division
of Commercial Fisheries, said Ell
lison has advised him that
shrimp should be running we'll
by the set opening date.
Douglas said the regulations
adopted by the State Board of
Conservation and Conservation
at its meeting last March in Will
mington with respect to out-of-
State shrimp trawlers operating
in North Carolina-coutrolled wa
tiers will be enforced without
fear or favor"
This regulation, designed not
only to protect North Carolina
fishermen but also to encourage
use of Stateports by shrimp fish
ermen, provides that any person,
firm or corporation, other than
a common carrier, who takes out
of the State of North Carolina in
any trawler or other vessel own
ed by nonresident any shrimp
taken in the inland commercial
waters of the State will upon con-
viction be punished by law. All
shrimp so taken will be confis-
Gated and sold or otherwise dis
posed of in the best interests of
the State, Douglas said.
Nonresident shrimpers, Doug
las emphasized, may have the
same shrimping privileges per-
mitted to resident shrimpers of
North Carolina if they comply
with State laws by paying the
usual license fees and taxes i'm
posed by this State for CONNER
cial fishing.
Douglas said that under the
C&D Boards regulation shrimp
ing privileges in North Carolina
waters will not be extended to
any nonresident shrimper seek
ing to operate in this States in
land commercial waters if the
State of which he is a resident
and in which his trawler or other
boat is registered prohibits North
Carolina shrimpers from opera
ing in the inland waters of that
State.

Weeb Ewbank, new coach for

ing out he may have to depend
on his veterans for what punch
the Colts have this season.
Ewbank planned to use
yesterdays exhibition game

but when the chips were down
he was happy to have such ole
hands as George Taliaferro and
Buddy Young around.
Neither was supposed to play
much, but it was Taliaferro, who
scored two touchdowns, includ-
ing the decisive one in the last
period. and Young the other as
the Colts won, 27-21. In addi-

Konstonty to Join
Yonks Tomorrow;
Moore Stays in IS
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Aug. 23.-Jim
Konstanty, 37-year-old relief
pitcher who helped the Phillies
win a pennant in 1850, has been
picked UP on waivers by the
Yankees to take the place of Bob
Kuzava, sold to the Orioles two
weeks ago. Konstanty will re-
port here tomorrow.
Konstanty had a 2-3 record
with the Phils this year after
posting a414-10 mark last sea-
son. He appeared in IA games
in 1850. when he was voted the
most valuable player in the
league.
Manager Terry Moore of the
Phillies said Konstanty didn't
figure in the clubs plans for
1855. At the same time Moore
disclosed that he had agreed at
the time he was named manager
to pilot the club next year.

Seven on Squad Made Good in NFL
Success at San Francisco u.
Marked Kuhorich for Pro Job
By q stor ssoff-correspendens

DETROIT, Aug. 23.-Joe Ku-
harich, ninth in succession to the
headache of coaching the Red
skins since they came to WASH
ington from Boston in 1887, faces
one of the sternest tests ever
given a football coach. but he
seems to like the idea. A native
of South Bend, ind, and a eradu-
ate of Notre Dame. where he first
won his football spurs, Kuharich
has two memorable feats to rec
ommend him as a coach.
In 1889, after a season as
Notre Dame freshman coach,
Kuharich took charge of the
Vincentian Institute squad at
Albany, N. Y, a high school that
hadn't won a game in two years,
and led it to seven victories in
nine games. Joe considers that
his top coaching feat.
In 1851 Kuharich climaxed a
winning regime at the Univer-
sity of San Francisco by coach
ing the Dons through an unde-
feated season of nine straight
victories. Seven players on that
squad made good in pro ranks.
The list includes Ollie Matson
of the Chicago Cardinals, who is
due for a discharge from the
Army in October; Gino Mar
chetti of the Baltimore Colts, Ed
Brown of the Chicago Bears, Roy
Barnie, Philadelphia Eagles, Bob

Senator's Little Hope
Of Rising Above Sixth
By Burton Hawkins

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 23.-
The slim satisfaction of finish.
ing in the first division for the
first time in eight years is be-
coming a mirage for the Sem
ators. They've faded three games
off the pace of the Tigers and
Red Sox at a time when they
should have sealed a spot among
the money boys.
Detroit and Boston now are
participating in private squab-
BILE over fourth place, with bait
tered Washington stepping aside.
The Senators today will COM
plete a comparatively soft"
stretch in their schedule when
they battle the Athletics in an
other doubleheader, but things
haven't worked out as antici-
pated.
The Senators are winding up
a 15-game streak in which they
have faced only the Red Sox and
Athletics. They figured those
clubs would be a tonic for their
flrst-division ambitions, but en-
tering today's contests Washing
ton had won three, lost nine and
tied one.
Sievers Ties BOnura.
Roy Sievers and Mickey ver-
non picked up some personal
glory here yesterday, but the
Senators achieved nothing as a
team before a gathering Of
1884. The AS edged Washing
ton, 80, in a 12-inning first
game, while the Senators rallied
with two out in the ninth to tie
the second game, "A. That con-
