IN HE BUCKET
BY DON

The Kodiak High Bears have been enracting the 'Perils of Pauline the last two weeks. Theyare, as the old movie hero fine was, close to being out of trouble as each episode end, and they never quite make it. Just like in the old serials, the spectators are lured back to
 see if, finally, the hero will solve all problems at one time and emerge victorious.
 After dropping a heartbreak to the Infirmary on Nov. IS,
 by one point. 40-39. the Bears dropped a game to Navy Com munications in an overtime period 40-38. They then lost to a good Com IT team by a score of 51-48, and came up short again this Wednesday by losing to VP 6,4e-45. These four games werellost on a total of nine points.
 The last two games against Com IF and VP 6 marked the best ball the town high has played. They were up against tall, good teams, and they played good heads up ball to press these teams as hard as they did Outstanding play on the rebounds accounted for most of this improved play. Its quite a job for a team that averages about 5 9" on the first five to get the ball off the blackboard against teams that average 6 or better.
 Fitzgerald and Norton led against Communications with 10 points apiece. Norton led a. gainst Coml7 with lo digits followed by Squartsoff with 12. 4Aganist VP 6 Bill Frost and Fitzgerald tied with 12 markers apiece. Extensively there is good balance. The point spread among the play CTS has been quite even and Ealfof them represent a scoring threat if unchecked. That is the kind of a team that gets harder and harder to beat. They can't just check one man but have to watch all five.
 The second team has suffer. led during these close one by not getting as mnch time in

:, the games as would be best. but they came through again st vP 6 when Norton, Ander- soo, and Squartoff fouIed out. The second line of Torgram- son, Cub, Heitman and Bob 9 Frost made a good account ot themselves and helped to close the gap in the final minutes of the game.

Raleigh. = Oyster seed plant
ing has begun along the North
Carolina coast, Director Ben E.
Douglas of the Department of
Conservation and Development
announced today
Douglas said C. Gehrman Hol-
land, assistant director of the de-
partment's commercial fisheries
division, had advised him that
oyster seed paintings will be
made in inland waters of Hyde,
Pamlico, Carteret, Onslow, New
Hanover, and Brunswick coun-
ties.
When the oyster seed planting
program is completed, Holland
said, the division plans to start
planting oyster shells to which
young oysters can attach them
selves and grow to maturity and
then to dinner and supper tables.
The oyster season, which re-
Gently closed, was below normal,
Holland reported. The oyster
catch in Tar Heel waters is not
yet definitely known, but the as
sistant fisheries commissioner
and officials of the Institute of
Fisheries Research at Morehead
City are convinced, Douglas said,
that the hurricane, which hit the
coast last year, did considerable
damage to the States oyster crop.
Although the shrimp season in
State inland waters closed jan
uary l after breaking all previous
records for pounds taken-more
than IA million pounds of shrimp
with heads off were taken from
Tar Heel waters-Douglas said
Holland and w. A. Ellison, Jr.,
director of the Institute of Fish
cries Research, have advised him
that large quantities of small
shrimp are being noted in creeks
and bays and also a good sign"
of shrimp il sounds and rivers.
Catches of commercial fin fish
such as croakers, pan trout, and
other species continue good along
the Carolina coast when weather
permits the fishing boats to go
out, Holland reported.
Pound netting was late because
of bad weather, Holland said.
Most nets now being fished have
a normal production of shad
which are bringing a fair price to
fishermen.
