Sadie Hawkins Day" began in

tors decided to show their appre-
citation to their patrons. So, the
idea of giving it all away" was
originated then and, has contin-

each year. Several thousands dol
lars worth of prizes, ranging
from baby bottles to washing
machines, are given away each
year at these events.
Leary says that more and finer
prizes are in store this year than
ever before, and will make their
receivers very happy. The bingo

while stopping at the Arlington

drove to Hatteras Island, it being
the first visit of Mr.. Hoyt.
Mr.. Warren, who was highly
complimented recently by Gov
ernor Umstead, said some nice
things about the Governor too.
He said it was most fortunate
for the Coastland that the Cow
ernor was so intensely interested
in the ferries and the progress
of the Cape Hatteras Seashore
project, and in building the Croa-
tan Bridge at this time. Mr.. War

DISTINGUISHED
NEWER CITIZENS
OBSERVE EVENT
The Huntington Cairns Of
Southern Shores Have
Birthday Party

Florence and Hunting o n
Cairns went back to Washington
this week-but not home.
From here out, for the second
half of the hundred years they
plan to live, home will be Dare
County and Washington just a
place where he has job.
Just when they decided to be-
come citizens of North Carolina
she was born in North Caro-
lina-they don't quite know, but
the idea began to take form
when they came down for their
first visit II years ago.
Last week it became informal
ly official when Mr.. Cairns, as
Mrs. Cairns puts it, decided to
give himself a birthday party. He
was fifty years old and the party
began on Wednesday evening at
their house in the Southern
Shores area of Kitty Hawk.
By the time the party ended
three evenings later both had de-
cided that they were so filled
with North Carolina vittles that
they could never think of them
selves as anything but Tar Heels
again. And so from here out
they will be citizens and, as often
as they can manage it, residents.
Officially Huntington Cairns is
secretary and treasurer of the
Board of Trustees of the National
Gallery of Art in Washington. He
is also general counsel for the
Gallery and as near as any one
man can be, he is the Gallery.
In collaboration with the late

LUCY STOWE, HATTERAS.
LANDS BLUE MARLIN
Third Woman To Land One Of
These Big Fish Off
N. c. Coast

Hatteras.-Miss Lucy Allen
Stowe, native of Hatteras and an
employee of the U. S. Weather
Station there for several years,
landed the largest of three blue
marlin taken off Hatteras on
Labor Day. She is the third wo-
man to land one of these great
game fish off the North Carolina
coast, and the first North Caro-
linian to boat one this season.
Total blue marlin score for the
Dare coast this summer adj
vanced to 10 when the three
were brought in to the Blue Mar
lin Fishing Docks here on Mon
day. Of the 10, nine had been
taken by Virginians who are
coming to Hatteras in increasing
numbers to pit their skill against
billfishes generally and blue
marlin in particular.
Miss Stowe was fishing from
Capt. Edgar Styron's new cruiser
the Twins II. A new record for
the American coast, and possibly
any other big game fishing port
where blue marlin were taken,
was made on this cruiser Mon
day. Two of the great fighting
billfishes were taken, the second,
172-pounder being landed by
Walter Wilkins of Norfolk who
is associated in the ownership
operation of the Blue Marlin
Fishing Center. They landed
their fish at a point near the
Continental Shelf 10 miles south
east of Diamond Lightship. In
approximately the same waters
on Monday, J. A. Pugh III troll
ing from Capt. Bill Webb's
cruiser Bill Jack, hooked and
boated a 236 pound marlin. The
800 FOUNDER measured II feet
seven inches from tip to tip and
So inches around its girth.
Previously at Hatteras this
season DR.. ]. c. Overbey of Nor
folk had landed a 442-pounder
on June IL and 391-pounder on
August Is. Sidney Bowen boated
a 231-pounder on August 20. In
the Oregon Inlet fishing fleet to
date, four blue marlin have been
landed, two by anglers fishing
from Willie Etherige's Chez
Chez, one land the largest) by an
angler fishing from Capt Les and
Girls Evans Ranger and one from
Fred Basnight's boat the Slow
and Easy.
Before Miss Stoves catch on
Monday, two blue marlin had
been landed by women anglers
off Hatteras. The first was boat
ed by Mrs. Ross H. Walker of
Richmond, Va. on July Is, 1852
and the second, on August 10,
1852, by Mrs. w. 7. Wilkins Of
Piqua, Ohio.

CLOSES
1854 SEASON ON
ROANOKE ISLAND
Lost Colony Showed to 49,.
227 Paying Customers
In 1854

Due to series of Incidents, most
of which involved weather condi-
tions, the Lost Colony paid attend
ance for the 1854 season ending
last Sunday totaled only 45,227 as
compared to 52,157 during the 1853
season according to statistics re-
leased this week by General Man
ager r. E. Jordan.
Nevertheless, with plans for
new kinds of promotion and hopes
for better breaks from the weather,
the Lost Colony will begin it's 1856
season on June 25 next year and
continue through Labor Day eve,
September A, it was stated.
The Paul Green drama showed
to 6,940 less persons this year than
in 1858, and gross receipts drop
ped in comparison to last season.
Just how much loss occurred in
1854 will not be officially known
until the state auditors arrive next
month to make an accounting Of
the years business. All bills for
1854 are not yet in, and the dra-
mas year does not end until Sep
TENDER 80. Manager Jordan has
advised all who do business with
the show to have their final state
ments in by September 30 in order
to be paid and included IN the cur
rent years business.
Jordan pointed out that of the
81 performances scheduled for
1854, three were total rsinouts. OF
the remaining perform ance S
shown, there were four OF five
partial rainouts during which at
tendance dropped to a minimum
and then, at the very end of the
season when some of the loss
could have been regained, Hurri-
cane "Carol" came on a Monday,
resulting in four nights when at
