II Mrs. Hewlett Hodges can
get $1,000 for the meteorite that
hit her in the hip, she had bet
ter take it.
That's the advice of Smith
sonian Institution officials who
are studying the object now.
They would like to have the
nine pound piece of star that
fell on Alabama, but not at that
price.
Mrs. Hodges, a housewife of
Sylacauga. Ala, made news last
week when the chunk OF heaven
bounced off her hip.
In short order the Air Force
moved in and flew the once fam
ing missile to Wright-Patterson
Air Force Base. Dayton, Ohio,
for study as a possible falling
plane or maybe even a flying
saucer.
Then the Air Force, through
its good Offices and those of Rep
resentatiye Roberts, Democrat
of Alabama saw that the Smith
sonian got a crack at studying
the pellet.
They had to promise Mrs
Hodges and her attorney she
would get back her old meteorite
OF satisfactory remuneration
therefor. Meanwhile, a museum
in Evansville. Ind, repeatedly has
offered $1,000 or more for it.
I'VE can't pay her anything
like that" said William F
Foshag, head curator of the
Smithsonian.

FERRY TRAVEL TO HATTERAS
JUMPS AHEAD OF COMBINED
ALLIGATOR-C ROATAN ROUTES
Oregon Inlet Ferry Carries Total of 1888 We
hicles in Month of May; 972 More Vehicles
Than Used Both Other Ferries in Dare
County. New Craft To Be Commissioned
This Month";

Oregon Inlet ferry traffic dur
ing the month of May was al
most as great as the combined
traffic handled by ferries opera
ting over Croatan Sound and
Alligator River, according to in
formation received in Manteo
by Cape Hatteras National Sea-
shore Recreational Area officials
from District Highway Commits
sioner Emmett Winslow of Hert-
ford. The difference in the total
for the Inlet ferry and those OPP
Grating across Croatan and Ali
gator was 972 vehicles.
Mr.. Winslow reported to the
Land Acquisition Office of Ma
tional Park Service in Manteo
that 6, 333 vehicles. $3.50 bearing
N. c. license plates and 3,203
nonresident license tags, crossed
Oregon Inlet.
In comparison, 1876 North
Carolina licensed vehicles, and
1926 non-residents crossed Croa-
tan Sound to total SIP cars and
trucks during May and a total
of 2,193 crossed Alligator River
during the month. Only 399
vehicles using the ferry facilities
of Alligator River on U. S. ga
were foreign or non-residents,
according to the license tags
checked.
Due to the increase in traffic,
State Highway and Public
Works officials established addi-
tional schedules on June S, five
days ahead of the date adver-
tised for increasing the service
on winter schedules.
Traffic was heaviest on Memo
rial Day week end when so many
persons thronged to the Dare
Coast that operators claimed
business was better than Fourth
of July week end last year.
Mr.. Winslow also stated that
the new converted landing craft
designed for ferry service on
Oregon Inlet to, help maintain
the Is or more round trips daily
during the summer months
would be placed in service on
June 10. Previously it had been
that the additional
ferry would be in service on or
about June Is. In the meantime,
the old Barcelona, a wooden
ferry is helping maintain serv-
ice with the present converted
landing craft on the 19-round
trips daily. between Mays Head
and Hatteras Island. The newer
large ferry is expected to be in
commission late this month. A
third boat of the same type is
being made ready as a standby
craft for this run.
An increase in traffic over
Croatan Sound, and Alligator
River will be noted during late
June and until Labor Day, as the
Lost Colony gets underway for
its 14th season.
Some observers believe that
traffic over Oregon Inlet, will
continue to be greater during the
current summer than over Croa-
tan Sound, especially for non
resident vehicles brining tou-
rists and vacationists from
everywhere to the National Sea
shore.
