UNIVERSITY OF MIAMrS
EXPEDITION UNDERWAY
IN HATTERAS WATERS

Hatteras.-Dr. Luis Rene Rivas,
head scientist of the University
of Miami's Marine Laboratory, and
one of the worlds outstanding au-
thorities on blue marlin and tuna,

came Col. John X. Howard, his
associate from the Miami labora-
tory.
Already here upon their arrival

Babe who will be in charge of the
expedition for Bob Maytag of
Ponte Vedra, Fla, sponsor of the

before the expedition is over other
experienced big game fishing en-
thusiasts will be joining the par
ty.
1t was Capt. Moore's private
cruiser Panda, which he left be-
hind in Florida, that Axsel Wich-
fields world record blue marlin
was landed q few wears ago. His
big fish was a TAP FOUNDER.

DR.. OVERBEY LANDS
SEVENTH MARLIN
OFF HATTERAS
Youngest Dare Coast Guide Skip
perine Cruiser For Big
Fisherman

When DR.. J. C. Over
hey, the Norfolk dentist, catches
giant blue marlin in ocean wat
ers near here, it must have unus-
ual angles to be news. That is, it
must be an unusually big fish, one
that is beakless (like a specimen
he landed last year, or one that
goes to $40 pounds to become an
annual and international record, as
the one he landed in 1853, the
worlds largest taken that year.
Thus the 270 FOUNDER he landed
on Sunday, his seventh in three
years for Cape Hatteras waters,

cruiser Snapper II was the young

the Gulf Stream off the North
Carolina coast. His young skip

Young Capt. Foster comes by his
game fish guiding naturally. He
is a member of the famous fishing
Fosters of Hatteras headed by
Capt. Ernal Foster, owner of the
Albartoss fleet of Gulf Stream
cruisers. Young Capt. Desmond's
father is Capt. Hallas Foster.
skipper of the Joe Massoletti
cruiser Coco which berths at Fos-
ter's Quay here.
Capt. Desmond Foster proved
that he was an expert, because
he manipulated the Snapper II in
the right position so the big 270
FOUNDER could be boated.
DR.. Overbey is president of the
Cape Hatteras Bill Fish Club, an
organization he formed few
months ago with Allan M. Fergu-
son of Washington, D. C. Purpose
of the organization is to create
more interest in the sport of big
game bill fishing, and at the same
time to conserve the crop of these
fishes, when and if necessary. The
clubs objective is to also assist
icthyologists and others studying
the fish with bills.

Twining Attributes Chinese Ability To Treble Air Force

WASHINGTON, LR- Gen. Ma than F. Twining advised Congress in February Red China's air force could De doubled or tripled "over- night" from Russia.
 In testimony given Feb. g and made public today, the Ar Force chief of staff said Red China's rapidly expanding system of bases gives the Communists the ability to move in aircraft rapidly from the Soviet Union"
 We cannot ignore their ca pability to double or triple their air strength in the Far East over night" he told a House Appropri- ations subcommittee
 Twining did not buplicly locate the new Chinese airfields nor dis cuss their relationship to the For mosa Strait.
 Early this month, President Eisenhower, in discounting pre- dictions of a possible Red attack on Quemoy and Matsu Islands by April Is, said the Communists still lack sufficient airfields and supply bases to support such an assault.
 Twining testified that in the last four years the Communists "have created a whole new air force in Red China"
 Twining gave this additional balance sheet:
 Of an estimated 2O,OOO Soviet combat planes, thousands of jet fighters and bombers now can reach targets in Western Europe, Alaska, Japan or the Philippines
 The United States plans a total of 23,OOO planes Twining report ed '"good progress" toward devel- oping an atomic powered air plane ID ble of unlimited range"
 The Soviet are putting vast resources" in the race to develop workable l0,00O-mile-an-ho intercontinental ballistic missile QBMD with sufficient range to destroy targets in the United States"

Hungarian Premier
Accused as 'Righfist'; /;
Custer Seems Near
BY The Assoeiotsd Press

BUDAPEST, Mar. 9.-Lead-
ers of the Hungarian Communist
Party today accused Premier
1mre Macy of "rightist devia-
tiorlism" and Of supporting mis-
taken "rightist ideas" in
speeches and articles.
(Western observers in Vienna
said Nagy's dismissal from
Office appeared imminent. He
had been his country's chief
mouthpiece for Soviet ex-
Premier Georgi Malenkov's
policy of more consumer
goods. His downfall had been
expected since the Soviet
Union and Hungary early this
year returned to policies en-
phasizing heavy industrial
production, which includes
war materials.)
A statement by the Hungarian
Workers (CommuniSt) Party's
Central Committee, published in
all Budapest newspapers, accused
Macy of encouraging elements
who tired to Illustrate industrial
tzation and deny the necessity
of heavy industry development.
Only by development of heavy
industry, it, added. could there
be a development of light in
dustry and agriculture.
Anti-Marxist, Says RakOsi.
The statement said the criti-
cism of Macy was voiced at a
session of the Central Commit
tee held March "a. The chief
speaker at the meeting was the
party's first secretary, Matyas
Rakosi.
The statement emphasized that
party policies laid down in June,
1858, which led to the proclama-
ton of the new course" es-
poused by Nagy's government,
were correct. But the committee
said there had been mistakes
and deficiencies. in carrying
them out.
Describing those responsible
for the "rightist mistakes" as
"opportunists and anti-Marx-
ists," the statement went on:
Macy became the chief
preacher of these anti-Marxist
ideas.
The basic feature of Imre
Nagy's rightist line appeared in
the negation and underestima-
tion of the party's achievements
and in the hushing up of these
results.

aged elements within the party
