Boat owners who rip up and down the Inl,,s

Those who saw the determination written on tb

A REASONABLE MAN

Capt. Harry Bennett, safest fishing boat operator
this side of anywhere, laughed he told about Va
man who pulled up to the dock with his boat three
fourths filled with water.
He told Harry he going to take warrant
out for one of the other fishing boat owners Saio
the man didn't even make like he was slowing dow
when he filled his boat with water.
Hes right reasonable man." unused Cant
Harry. why don't you go have talk with him."
The man jumped into his pickup truck and left
In few minutes he returned. &
Man, he shore was the most reasonable man
ever talked to- said the fisherman whose face was
flushed with anger Il didn't say three words to him
and he picked up and me off his property"
The fisherman neglected to say that he had ranted
and raved and lavished the boat owner with cuss
words.

A HOP, SKIP, JUMP

When it comes to fishing no distance is too great.
ASK a man to ride with you 100 miles on business and
ne is immediately busy. Besides, 100 miles is too
far to ride i'll day.
Ask the same man about going fishing at Town
Creek or Northeast River and the 100 miles isn't far
at all Matter OF fact, he'll probably get up at three
o'clock in the morning with a smile on his face. "
Proves that distance is handicap only when you
didn't want to go in the first place.

A NOTEWORTHY JOB
BUT REVENUE NEEDED

BUT REVENUE NEEDED
Like everyone in America has found
out in recent years, it takes more and
more money to make the ends meet.
The Town of Tabor City has found
that out, and in an effort to make
things balance better, have made an
all-out effort to collect some much
needed back taxes that has relieved
the situation temporarily.
But the answer is not in sight, in
spite of the fact that the delinquent
tax payers are doing right fair job
of getting. paid up.
The answer is deeper than just col
lecting these back taxes. There is
going to have to be some means of
increasing the revenue if town SER
vices are to continue to expand and
facilities improved as they have been
doing steadily. :,
With the heavy tax load that every
one is strangled with now, it is gen.
really conceived that public official,
or newspaper for that matter, who
advocates doing anything to cost the
public more is crackpot and needs
his head examined.
But it is our studied opinion that
the time is near when higher month
~ charge must be placed on sewage
and water users in Tabor City. Our
rates are among the lowest anywhere
IN this section and the cost of these
services Is greater than ever.
We believe that in line with ma
tlonal increases in cost of operation.
that the 90 cents per month sewagc
fee is unreasonably low. This should
be III the Sl.OO per month neI.nou.-
hood. The $1.50 per month t.at tea

likewise.
The town finances, in the lace OF
these low utility rates, are Al the
best condition in our memory. But
even that is far from good.
Sewage expansion is an absolute
must in Tabor City and it Will cost
money, big money, to do it. The funds
must come from some- where. The
present % cents per months sewage
charge Is so low that it doesn't come
close to being a profitable operation,
The water income is some financial
help but the margin between cost and
income is not adequate. Proper rates
to users of these utilities would 20 a
long way toward making an expans-
Ion of both operations possible.
There may be yells of a high tax
rate at $500 per hundred per year.
We grant the argument that the rate
itself is high. But we also inject the
sure fact that the valuation itself is

~ All pass
Mr.. Champion got off to his
best opening, the singleton deuce
of clubs. Mr.. Muzzy won with
the ace and lost no time return
ing a club. Mr.. Champion ruffed
this trick, but there was no way
for him to re-enter his partners
hand to get another club ruff.
Thus Mr.. Abel made four, los
ing only q club, a club ruff and
the ace Of hearts. He had plenty
Of time to pick up the trumps
and discard his two small dia-
monds on dummy's good clubs
This deal is another illustra-
ton Of the extreme Importance
Of the first lead made by the
defending side after the open
ing lead.
Mr.. Muzzy loves to ruff and
to give his partner a ruff. In
this case, however, it was neces-
sary to look ahead and to realize
that the best chance to defeat
the contract probably lay in de-
ferring the club ruff.
II Mr.. Champion had held the
East hand here is how he would
have reasoned: IF my partner
has as many as three trumpS, he
will get to ruff two club leads.
But 1t Is unlikely that he has as
many as three trumps because
that would leave Mr.. Abel with
a four-card heart suit. With only
four hearts, 1t is probable that
Abel would have bid three no
trump rather than game in
hearts.
IF my partner has the ace of
spades. he will always win with
it. But If he has the king Of
diamonds, that will require q
lead through Abel's hand. Our
diamond winner, If any. must be
set up while I still have control
Of trumps."
Undoubtedly Mr.. Champion
would have reasoned further
that his partner held as many as
two trumps. because If he had
only one, then Mr.. Abel would
hold six. And with a six-card
major suit, Mr.. Abel's most
probable rebid would have been
in hearts rather than In no
trump.
AZ you see. the lead of a dia-
mond at trick two defeats the
contract. Even If Mr.. Abel should
elect to go up with the ace of
diamonds and fire a trump, Mr..
Muzzy could win and lead a
club. Mr.. Champion would then
get his club ruff at q time when
he could lay down the king of
diamonds for the setting trick.
