MIDNIGHT ATTACK
ON BUXTON GIRL
PUZZLES OFFICERS

Like most other cases which
happen in Dare County, a midnight
attack Saturday is puzzling Off
GERS, and perhaps will continue to
do so until the excitement wears
down, and the public interest is
transferred to a fresh incident.
What seems to be a puzzle to Off
GERS, seems not so much puzzle
to Buxton neighbors, some of
whom express the opinion that
nothing will be done, even though
the guilty man may not be far off
and easy to find.
After she had retired for the
night, Miss Shirley Barnett, II,
one of the most highly regarded
girls in the community was attack
ed in her room in the dark, by a
person apparently drunk, but I'M
known to her, who had either been
hiding under the bed, or had gain
ed access through bedroom Win
dow. He stifled her cutlery by slap
ping a part of the bedspread into
her mouth, whereupon she bit
down so hard upon it, that he
snatched his hand away, and with
it the bedspread and two of her
lower teeth, and he bolted through
a window, screen and all.
The cutlery brought local officer
Raymond Basnett, and then a re-
port to the Sheriff, and the usual
call for the SBI to come down, take
the buck and to solve the case,
plus bloodhounds in this instance,
and there was more stir than
would have been created by two
tigers loose in the woods. So much
excitement and endeavor frighten-
ed everyone so they wouldn't talk,
when a little quiet investigation
might have turned up the offender
in short order. Everybody clam
med up so no one wanted to talk to
anyone for fear of "hard feelings"
with somebody's neighbors. But a
few of 'em had a pretty good idea
who the rough and drunken culprit
is, believed to be a local resident.
Miss Barnett is the daughter of
Mr.. and Mrs. Jarvis Barnett, a
young girl of spotless reputation,
and she was considerably upset by
the shock of the incident.

Croa+an Sound Bridge To Increase Need
For Bridge Over Alligator River

to handle.
This traffic in time will make
possible much property develop
ment on both sides of the River, in
Tyrrell and Dare Counties. We
may expect a comeback in proper
ty values eastward from River
landing in Dare, and westward
from Sandy Point in Tyrrell.
Electricity and other advantages
will follow soon.
Clearly, there is no immediate
project more worthy, nor whose
possibilities are greater in magni-
tude to the Tyrrell County area.
1t calls for renewed effort, energy
and planning by the leaders of this
area. The sooner it is consummat-
ed, the finer it will be for all.
The coastland times. [volume] (Mnateo [i.e. Manteo], N.C.) 1947-1959, 1955-06-10

To some people, the announce
ment that a bridge would be built
across Croatan Sound meant the
end of need for further effort in
this direction. Many people con-
cluded the bridge would mean a
short cut to the west and south for
those who may wish to travel to
and from the Atlantic Ocean shore
in Dare County. In fact, that was
all that some people cared about.
There is no discounting the value
the completed bridge will be to all
the traffic that uses U. S. 264, and
it will be of tremendous service to
the communities of Dare, Hyde,
and Beaufort Counties. 1t will
cause the development of new
business and will benefit the old.
1t will result in road improve
ments, better bridges, the elimina-
ton of dangerous curves.
But for the man who wishes to
come to the seashore, or to leave
the seashore to go west, the new
Croatan Sound bridge offers no
saving in time or distance. In fact
the person bound to or from Ra-
leigh and towns in it's vicinity,
will find slightly shorter route
by way of Elizabeth City, Eden
ton, and Williamson, than if he
follows U. S. 264.
On the other hand, U. s. 264
may be expected to enjoy a ire
mendous gain in traffic from peo-
pie who live on it, and to the south
of it-people who now in many
cases patronize other beaches and
resorts.
So the Croatan Sound bridge is
not the solution for those who seek
shorter route or saving in
travel time. The need for the
bridge over Alligator River will
become greater than ever. AS
traffic grows throughout the en-
tire area, then So will more and
more traffic each year be fed to
the shores of Alligator River on
both sides; volume of travel that
will overtax the capacity of ferries

KING MACKEREL CAUGHT

Hatteras.-King mackerel were
running in Hatteras Inlet waters
this week, according to Capt. Err
nal Foster. But like most kings
taken at this season, the fish ran
small-from three to six pounds
each.
Bluefshing still seems to be the
most popular of sports. Capt. Ed
gar Styron listed several parties
and their catches including so
blues, taken by TEN Crouch and
party, Norfolk, fishing with Capt.
Freeman Stowe.
On Sunday, j. L. Whitley and
party of Enfield, trolling offshore
with Capt. Elmer Balance, caught
eight dolphin, II bluefish, five tuna,
one Spanish mackerel and one
false albacore.
On Monday, DR.. H. R. Varney
and family of four, from Kewanee,
ILL.,, fshed with Capt. Balance and
in three hours boated 81 blues,
going to three pounds each and
five Spanish mackerel. Another
catch on Monday reported by Capt.
Freeman Stowe, who had a group
of his friends out trolling in Hat
teras Inlet, included So blues and
one Spanish mackerel in one hour
of fishing.
Willie Newsome reported sever
al channel bass had been caught
in the surf Largest was a 40
FOUNDER and So FOUNDER landed
by surf casters fishing southwest
of the Point of Cape Hatteras. He
also reported channel bass catches
by anglers surf casting near Hat
teras Inlet point of beach.
