QUICK DEATH BY
RIFLE COMES TO
NEGRO MONDAY
John Davis Scarborough Held in
Dare Jail For Killing
{ phraim Daniels. Jr.

A single 22-caibre bullet sud-
denly ended the career of gay
Ephrain Daniels Jr., near Man
teo Monday afternoon near the
beer joint operated by Otto Dan
iels. The shot was admittedly
fired by John Davis Scarborough,
young 42-year-old Negro. A
coroner jury found that Daniels
died at the hand of Scarborough.
The hearing in Recorders Court
will be held next Tuesday.
The pair, long time friends had
been on drinking spree for, the
week end, off and on, and on Mon
day had been together most of the
day. Daniels is said to have got
ten some money from Scar
borough, and their regard for
each other had reached low ebb.
Scarborough then went to his
home about 500 yards away, and
on returning to group of
negroes, fired directly toward
Daniels at a distance of about 20
yards. The shot struck him over
the left eye, killing him instantly.
"He was coming toward me-"
said Scarborough, "and 1 let him
have it." Scarborough said they
were both drunk, and eyewitness
es confirm the claim.
Daniels, who was somewhat
younger than Scarborough, at the
time of his death was living with
his wife and six children. There
had been eight children at home
by his wife, and he is said to have
fathered another by another
woman who is expecting a second
one. He has been accused of
fathering several others. Last
year he did time on the roads for
failure to support his family, and
had recently taken the easiest
way out of further court trouble
by living with his wife.
He had been in court several
times for disturbing the peace and
some premises had been put out of
bounds for him. Neighbors say
that his wife said she was glad he
was dead, while regretting he had
to go as he did.
The two negroes had been good
friends, that is drinking friends.
Scarborough's folks say Daniels
had been eating off of Scarbor-
ough for long time, and getting
his money and never paying it
ok. Scarborough generally
works, and he and his wife, who
is a hard worker, own a fairly
nice home not far from the scene
of the shooting.

CONGRESSMAN AND
ENGINEERS CORPS
AID STRIPED BASS
Plans for Storage Pool In Roanoke
River Expected to Preserve
Striped Bass During
Dry Seasons

Washington, D. C.-Congress-
man Herbert C. Bonner announced
today that the Corps of Engineers
has made temporarily available
100000 acre-feet of storage capa-
city in the flood control pool at
the John H. Kerr project as an
emergency measure to provide
flows during this spring for pre-
serving the striped bass in the
Roanoke River.
By utilizing this storage, it will
be possible, on the basis of dry
year periods comparable to those
previously experienced, to main
tain a minimum river stage at
Weldon of IL feet until the
spawning of the striped bass be-
gins. This occurs generally when
river water has attained tenn.
perature of co.. For a two-week
period from the start of spawn
ing a minimum stage of Is feet
will be maintained by releases
during the week and a 14-foot
stage by releases over the week
end. Thereafter a minimum stage
of IL feet will be maintained until
May 16, 1866. In the event of bet
ter-than-dry year flows, which are
expected on the basis of recent
conditions, it should be possible
to maintain a minimum river
stage of Ia feet during the entire
two-week spawning period and IS
feet thereafter until May 16.
Congressman Bonner, Barden
and Fountain, who are greatly in
terested, and whose Districts are
tremendously affected, feel that
above would take care of the sit
uation for the spawning season of
1856. Congressman Bonner stated
that he had made an engagement
with the Under Secretary of the
Interior, Mr.. Clarence A. Davis,
General Itschner, a representative
of the North Carolina Fish and
Wildlife Service, the u. S. Fish
and Wildlife Service and the
North Carolina Department of
Conservation to work out per-
manent plan for future years for
this problem.

COPPER COLORED GAME
FISH ATTRACTS ANGLERS

A copperish colored game fish,
the channel bass or red drum, is
the biggest attraction of early
Spring in Oregon and Hatteras In
let's and along the surf from Kitty
Hawk to Ocracoke Inlet. While
stragglers of this species have al
ready been caught in commercial
fishermen's nets, with at least one
report of one being taken with rod
and reel from the surf, the big
run, which is the biggest mid
Atlantic coast piscatorial news for
salt water fishermen usually hits
the inets during early April.
Anglers from far and near head
for the Dare Coast when the ar
rival Of big schools Of channel
bass is flashed to sports and OUT
door editors through the east.
The size of channel bass in these
early mid-Spring runs seldom
drops lower than rs pounds per
fish and the average would be S5.
Specimens weighing from 80 to
60 pounds are not unusual, the
reason so many national prize
winners are landed o. are Coast.

SOON FINISHED;
NEW MOTELS FOR
MACS HEAD AREA

Mays Head-At least two new
motels, the Ocean House and
Beacon Motor Lodge will be com
pleted and ready for the reception
of guests during the current
Spring, on the Mays Head beach.
The Ocean House builders plan to
open on April % in time to help
take care of mid-Spring vacation
lists coming primarily for the
sportsfishing or to attend the first
annual Dare Coast Pirates Jam
boree. This new oceanside hostel
ry, owned by the Miramar motel
interests, Sheriff Frank Cahoon,
w. w. Harrington and Frank
White, will have 81 units. Beacon
Motor Lodge expects to have at
least 80 units of approximately
100 units planned, ready for oc-
cupancy well in advance of the
vacation season peak. George S.
Croker and associates of Nor
folk, builders of Beacon Motor
Lodge will feature a swimming
pool as one of it's attractions
the first hostelry on this coast to
build pool.
Many of the established motels
and hotels between Kitty Hawk
and Hatteras are undergoing ex-
pansion programs. On Hatteras
Island most of the new facilities
being added are new units for
motels and cottage courts in the
Cape Hatteras region. Additional
facilities for convention groups
are under construction at The
Carolinian w he e construction
work is also underway on the hos
telry's development of a Drift
wood Garden.
While many of the hotels and
motels are now operating the
year around and are already
realizing early Spring patronage,
the Mays Head Chamber of Com
merce has announced that approx
imately 95 percent of the accom-
modations available will be open
by late April and during the vaca-
ton season launching first annual
Dare Coast Pirates Jamboree on
April 29-May 1.

WANCHESE RURTTANS HEAR
PATROLMAN AT WANCHESE

Following a chicken dinner Fri
day night at Wanchese, the Ruri-
tan Club heard a short talk by the
new Highway Patrolman Fields,
who has recently come into the
community. The patroIman made
a good impression, during his talk,
and he pledged his full coopera-
ton to help in anyway possible,
and invited the public cooperation
in return to help make the high
ways safe. He explained the diff
Guilty of covering the entire terri
tory thoroughly, due to the fact
that one patrolman must work in
several counties. He was intro
duced by Sheriff Frank Cahoon.
L. Vernon Gaskill of Wanchese
was given a unanimous invitation
to join the club. Reports were
given on various matters concern
ing harbors, roads and dumping
ground for trash.
