PORPOISE PATH
PARALLELS PLANE
ON OUTER BANKS
Cape Ha++eras Filler Usually Finds
The Fish In Ocean All
Going His Way
BY FRANKLIN M. COCHRAN

ny nAANhLI1N WI. SOCHnAN
Buxton. - Knowing absolutely
nothing about the habits, haunts
and inner character of the Por-
poise, l feel that l can speak freely.
To me, they seem friendly. They
may have the blacklist hearts OF all
the fish in the sea. Being mann
mails, like US, this might we'll be.
They always seem to be smiling OF
grinning, and playful. Anyway, l
nike 'em.
Lately, off Cape Hatteras can be
seen the phenomena Of fishes fly
ing, although they aren't flying
fishes. They're baby porpoises and
their mothers are teaching them,
of all things, the fine art of
breathing.
A porpoise, as all porpoise lovers
know, has a rather nasty habit OF
humping. This would be apt to get
anything but another porpoise a
punch in the snoot, but it is their
way of manifesting either affec-
ton or anger. The oomph behind
the bump is calculated to measure
the amount of emphasis needed to
suit the occasion.
Naturally, with a newborn baby
porpoise, a careful, somewhat low
ing little bump will at first suffice
to get him out of the water and
into the air, where he can take
himself a helping of the breath of
life. For, believe it or not, he re-
quires from the start, the very
same air we breathe, minus the
smog, to sustain life. For the por-
poise is: "a warm-blooded man.
NAL that suckles its young on
milk and would drown if it
did not frequently rise to the sur
face of the sea to breathe air."
The baby porpoise, of course,
does not understand all of this,
never having read the encyclopedia,
hence the name of "bumpsy.
Just about every species of fish
that swims in the sea has been
caught at some time or another off
the beaches of the Outer Banks.
Even the sawfish and the headfish
Game fish and pan fish are plenti-
full. When the season runs out On
one species, two or three other
varieties arrive in time to steal
your bait. But they're all tickle
and ACKNOWLEDGMENT old "gandi-
dancer" the porpoise. He stays
with me all year.
When you are flying alone and
the ocean is glassy-smooth and
there's no sign of life on sea or
shore, it's lonesome. Then a por-
poise cuts the surface, making
graceful ripple. Another one makes
smooth, surfacing maneuver, and
then another. You can follow their
track as they dive and surface,
dive and surface. Sometimes the
whole ocean is alive with the
creatures.
And what do you know, they're
all going my way!

ASSEMBLY OF GOD
CHURCHES IN DARE
LAUNCH PROJECT
Monday Night, February 7+h. To
Be Observed in Join Meeting
At Bux+no

Six Assembly of God churches
on the Outer Banks will join 400
other churches of this faith Mon
day night, February 7th at 1880
pm. to launch one of the faiths
greatest projects, mission U. S.
A." according to Rev. A. W.
Price who is Presbyter for the
Cape Section,' and who will preside
over this meeting which will be
held at the Buxton church.
Mr.. Price, a native of Avon is
at present pastor of the Wanchese
Assembly of God Church. There
will be 400 such rallies at the
same time in this movement, he
says.
Assemblies of God church peo-
pie from the Cape Section (Outer
Banks), which include all villages,
will gather at the Assembly of
God Church, Buxton, for one of
nearly four hundred simultaneous
rallies, to launch the denomina-
TONS new home missions pro-
gram; Mission U. S. A. Every or
ganized group of the Assemblies
of God will be represented at this
rally. Pastors of the local church
es, Rev.'s Walter Whitaker, Ocra-
coke; H. C. Dew, Hatteras; Alice
Austin, Frisco Robert Rayle, BuX-
ton; Lester Jarrett, Avon, and
Louise Rountree, Salvo, will pre-
sent needs for home missions sup
port in order to aid the all-out
effort to evangelize the unreached
cities of the United States with
this gospel. Other home missions
leaders will announce the cities in
this state where the Assemblies
of God wish to Open new churches
in 1855. Immediate goal of the
rev program Mission U. S. A. Is
to establish 1000 new Assemble
of God Churches in the United
States during 1866. In the United
States the denomination has now
1870 churches with 465,674 mem
bers. The denomination supports
TAG foreign missionaries and has
nearly 5000 native pastors IN
foreign countries. Two hundred
and four home missionaries work
in the United States among the
deaf, the Indians, foreign langu-
age groups, in industrial areas,
and among men and women IN
prisons. During 1854 five hundred
and twelve churches were added
to the denomination. The Assem-
blies of God is one of the fastest
growing church school denomina-
lions. In order to reach the 1855
goal of 1000 churches special
plans have been laid to double the
church extension work. Pastors
are pledging their churches and
support to mother" new efforts.
That is, they will shoulder the ex-
pense of getting new church
started and supervise it's activi-
ties until it becomes established.
In some places two or more
churches are adopting" projects
in other communities. Evangelists
of the denomination are pledging
themselves to give of their serv-
ices without financial support to
help pastors who are opening new
churches.

Japan's up-and-coming Left So

For two days sturdy japanese

This contrasts sharply with
many similar situations in recent
months which have been directed
against the United States.
The neutralist Left Socialist
Party, always in the forefront
of such agitations. Is roughly
the equivalent of Britain's
Beganites. It has been sharply
critical Of the United States. but
It is not considered openly pro-
Communist. although its policies
have favored the Soviet Union

West.
The controversial United

Mount Full last May and June
was not an exact parallel to the
Sunakawa issue, but in both
cases the United States was
operating under an agreement
negotiated with Japan.

speeches followed in the Diet.
