tprbed by Mrs. Shorts pet. He

RAPID PROGRESS
ON IMPROVEMENT
TO MILL CREEK
Party from Engineer Corp. Visits
Oregon Inlet and Manteo.
and Discusses Prof.
ecfs

In an atmosphere of good will
and encouragement, several Dare
County citizens met Wednesday
afternoon in Manteo to discuss
with Col. R. L. Hill of the Will
mington office of the Corps of
Engineers, the probable early i'm
provement of the channel leading
into Wanchese, sometime in the
fall, for which funds seem now to
be in the bag. This project has
had vigorous backing stemming
out of the movement begun in the
Wanchese Ruritan Club and aided
by Congressman Herbert Bonner.
Col. Hills party also discussed
the status of the Oregon Inlet
project which has been approved
by Congress, but which has not
been successful in getting funds
appropriated for the work. Several
thousand dollars have been raised
and spent by interested parties,
and by Dare County in various
attempts to get the appropriation
through Congress. There is some
hope that it may be gotten in the
1857 budget if vigor and consistent
effort can be financed and contin-
ued.
Accompanying Col. Hill to Man
teo were men from his office, in
GLIDING D. A. Gardner, Chief of
Operations Branch; w. F. Fowler,
Chief of Harbors and Waterways
Branch, and M. E. Wester, Comp
troller. Roanoke Island citizens at
tending the meeting were Mayor

and Mrs. Larry Koziel and son
Robin, Mrs. Koziel being Mrs,
Baum's granddaughter. Mrs. Baum
spent two weeks there sight seeing
by semi-cruiser; travelled down the
West Coast to San Pedro, Calf,
and visited a week with cousins
there, Mr.. and Mrs. w. A. Mehler,
where they motored to Tijuana,
Mexico, for full day of sight
seeing and saw many beautiful
fruit farms and flowers in pro-
fusion. After a very nice visit with
the Mehlers, Mrs. Baum travelled
by bus via Houston and Galveston,
Texas to Norfolk, then at home to
Kitty Hawk. The trip in, all was a
very pleasant one and it took
over a month to go and return.

WHOPPING INCREASE
IN TOURIST TRAVEL
TO HATTERAS ISLE
National Park Service and Other
Promotion Has Developed
Record-Breaking Num-
Der Of Tourists

The result of advertising by the
National Park Service, the Dare
County Tourist Bureau and other
agencies has resulted in record
breaking travel to Hatteras Island
during the July 4 week end. More
than 1000 visitors came to the
Cape Hatteras National Seashore
Area. The tremendous gains by
leaps and bounds during the past
three years indicates that another
three years will demand a bridge
three years will demand a
bridge, for the capacity OF
ferry boats to handle tn traf-
fic will be impracticable if not
impossible.
Yet in spite of all the tide of
dollars that has poured into Hat
teras Island, bringing income to
investors and employment to local
people, there are people now and
then so dense as to discount the
value of this new income which is
proving life-saver to take up the
slack left by dwindling CONNER
cial fisheries, and the remains of
a once profitable Coast Guard
service.
The figures, announced by Allyn
F. Hanks, Superintendent of the
Cape Hatteras National Seashore,

|BINGO PROPERTY OWNERS GET
LUCKY BREAK in RULING BY
JUDGE MORRIS SATURDAY
Restraining Order Made Permanent in Hearing at
Curri+uck; Appeal Not Expected in Case Clos
ing Three Bingo Games at Mays Head; Equip

ants Will Pay All Costs and Attorneys

Undoubtedly a long sigh of re-
lief went up in Currituck Court
house around noon Saturday from
three owners of property in which
Bingo games had been operated,
when Judge Chester Morris, while
ruling against the games, an
nounced that he would not order
confiscation of the property, which
he could have done under the law.
He did say the equipment would
be confiscated, and that in dictat-
ing his order, he would stipulate
the defendants give bond in suffi-
cient sum to pay all costs, as well
as reasonable attorneys fees for
the plaintiffs.
Judge Morris made permanent
restraining order served some two
weeks before against G. T. West
colt, r. B. and Gertrude Lennon,
CASTOR B. and Ella Mann, whose
buildings had housed three bingo
games. The games were operated
by Mr.. Wescott, by AL Mater and
Mr.. Lennon, and by Gene O'Don-
nell for H. W. Jones.
The order was brought at the
instigation of several church
groups and signed by Mrs. Virgin
la Wescott and Mrs. Marjorie Wes-
colt of Manteo. They were repre-
sented by Martin B. Simpson Jr.
OF Elizabeth City.
The courtroom was more than
half filled with spectators from
Wanchese, Manteo, Kitty Hawk
and the beaches; including many
operators and former workers of
the bingo games.
Judge Morris expressed regret
that he had to pass on this case,
and he said some of the men in
