NAVY BOYS DRAG IN A
WHALE WITH BULLDOZER

Kitty N-IaWk - Most unusal
''fish story of the week on the
Dare Coast was about the whale
that did not get away. A 15-foot
pilot whale chased into the shall
low waters of the surf a few
miles north of Kitty Hawk Beach
abreast the village of Duck
found itself foundered. Members
of the crew of Navy Duck, N. E.
10y, B. Hayden and c. j. Dugan,
whose normal duties involve the
maintenance of aircraft targets
in the area decided to do some
thing about the situation Unable
to shove the pilot whale back in
to deep water on the ocean side,
they got a bulldozer, lassoed the
tail of the whale, and then pulled
and skidded across the dunes to
Currituck Sound where it show
ed immediate signs of revival.
Later however, the mammal
died. These Navy boys are now
saying they are the first fisher
men to ever land a whale with
a bulldozer.

TREASURE HUNTERS
FIND ANCIENT COIN

Buxton, Oct. 5.-Zeno Brown of
Knoxville, Tenn. and Howard Sum-
merell of Richmond have just COM
pleted a treasure hunting eXpedi-
ton along the Outer Banks and
with the metal detecting devices
they use for locating likely digging
spots, they have found signs of
something, and they believe it may
be buried treasure. Like all treas
ure hunters the couple have not
done much; talking about what
they have found or where they
found it..
On Saturday in the Woods of
Buxton they thought they had hit
pay dirt when digging in one spot
they found curious looking coin,
apparently made of copper or
bronze. The coin bore 6-pointed
star on one side and the numerals
"1287" beneath some engraving
which appeared to be Arabic. No
one locally who saw the coin could
identify it. After some preliminary
searching here, Brown and Sum-
merell did a bit of exploiting in the
vicinity of Springers Point, Ocra-
coke, (reputedly the spot where
Blackboard the Pirate" once liv-
ed) but they were not much en-
couraged with their findings.

CAPE HATTERAS
AND FIT. RALEIGH
HAD 111,237

The Cape Hatteras National
Seashore and Fort Raleigh His
toric Site had a total of III, 237
visitors during the calendar year
according to figures issued this
week by Historian Albert Dilla-
hunty of the National Park
Service.
There were 9, 23O visitors in
September.
Represented in the totals are
3,178 Lost Colony" visitors dur
ing September and 45,227 for the
year. During the corresponding
period of 1858, the travel count
showed 1886 and 156,643 visit
ors for the month and year, re-
spectively. Lost Colony" vista

be attributed to exodus of the

feStation of mosquitoes and the

The latter tends to discourage re-
entries but not those with a gen.

ues of the area.
Whereas visitation to- Fort Ra-
leigh declined, the Historian re-
ported that all checks by which
visitation to Cape Hatteras Ma

SCHOOL MATTERS
CONSIDERED BY
EDUCAYN BOARD
Payments Made for Manteo
SCHOOL,; Janitor Holds On;
Hatteras Bids Next Week

The Board of Education of
Dare County met this week, and
voted to continue Jim Lamb Far
row on his job. Board Member
R. 0. Balance of Manteo didn't
show up for the meeting. This
newspaper reported last week
that Balance and Farrow fell
out, and Balance fired Farrow,
but that he was ordered back. on
job by the Board Chairman until
such time as the Board met.
They met Tuesday.
Balance called at the Times
office to leave word there wasn't
bit of truth in the article. APP
parently he lost interest in his
tiff with the janitor,, as may be
judged by his inattendance at
the meeting.
The facts show that Farrow,
who receives $181 per month for
9h months, and $50 per week
during the inactive season, for
his services as helper to the
School maintenance man, had
been off for month following
his reputed firing by Balance.
When numerous white friends
appealed in his behalf, he was
put back to work.
The Manteo School Committee
took exception to the statement
that the Lost Colony group
which used the school building
hadn't paid anything for its use
and lights. That in fact used to
be the custom, nor does the
county school fund show where
they have paid anything. Gene
raj Manager Dick Jordan of the
Lost Colony was upset about it
too. 1t now appears its another
case of the farmers wife who
kept the egg money, but the
farmer bought the feed for the
chickens. Some token payments
have been made during the past
two or three vars, but it was not
paid in the County treasury
which keeps up the schools, but
was paid into the school actiyi-
ties fund, and for one thing went
to buy typewriter, last year, for
the school. A letter concerning
this subject appears elsewhere.
Bids for the construction Of a
new Cape Hatteras Island school
are to be opened Tuesday of next
week, but contract may not be
awarded for several days after,
it was stated this week at the
office of the Board of Education

POW-WOW HAD BY
REPUBLICANS AT
KINNEKEET SAT.
Billy Love, Candidate for
Congress Talks to County
Candidates at Avon

The Republican Pow-w o w
scheduled at Avon Friday night,
with Billy Love of Elizabeth
City, the Republican candidate
for Congress as speaker, almost
didn't materialize, so few attend
ed. On Avon are two Republic
can candidates for office, neither
of whom remembered to 60 out
and buy dinner at the hotel.
Ike Jennett of Buxton and E.
B. Scarborough of Avon are can
didates for County Commission
err, and Summer Scarborough of
Avon seeks to get on the Board
of Education. The latter two,
living only a few yards away
weren't interested.
Up until the depression, Avon
and in fact both townships on
Hatteras Island were predoml-
nately Republican, but the new
deal bought off many of the
younger ones, which no doubt
fastened the death of many OF
the old faithful members. The
party has just about disappeared,
and it can't muster interest, and
ability sufficient to wage a cam
paign, or fill out ticket.

Hatteras, Oct. 6 = Fourteen
blue marlin have been landed
off the Dare coast of North Caro-
lima by anglers fishing from
boats operating out of Hatteras
and Oregon Inlet during the
1854 season. Four of the IA, were
taken during the past 10 days
by members of the Ocean City
(Md) Light Tackle Club. They
were amazed to find such terrific
big game fishing in waters off
Cape Hatteras.
Our group raised SO marlin in
less than one week and that is
better than they do down in
Bimini, which heretofore has had
the distinction of being the most
famous blue marlin fishing wa

NEW DONATIONS
GIVEN FOR BOY
SCOUT BUILDING

The Rotary Clubs Boy Scouts
building fund drive totaled $541
towards a goal of $4,000 through
Wednesday noon this week.
During the weekly meeting Mon
day night, the local Rotarians dis
cussed the fund drive and it was
reflected that several Of the COM
mittee members have not yet COM
pleted their canvas of areas as
signed. During the next few days
the committees will complete their
drive at which time the Scouts
themselves will take over for house
to house canvas activities.
The Boy Scouts building will be
erected on property to be purchas-
ed or given in trust by an island
citizen. Definite location of the
building has not yet been decided
upon, but this is one of the minor
details of the Rotary Club-sponsor-
ed campaign for $4,000. Two or
three sites are under consideration.
The "red mercury" in the Their
mometer in downtown Manteo, was
corrected on Wednesday to show
the exact amount raised through
cash donations or pledges to date.
Previously someone had erroneous
ly lifted the "red mercury" to in
dictate that more than $3.50 had
been raised to date.
Previously reported in the drive
for funds was $122. This represent
ed donations and pledges from the
Community and Health Center
buildings. Additional contributions
from these two buildings came
through this week to boost the to-
tai to 1882 with every person max
ing contributions.
