THERE IS ANOTHER WEDDING THIS WEEK.

It is difficult sometimes to apprase the American peo-
pie But then has always been difficult to understand
many of the human appettes We could understand
why some of the creme de Ia of white families as
they rated themselves could desert their to
habit with flat-nosed bow-legged dngy maid of color
and forever after claim superiority to all her kind well
We cannot understand why the American people rush
like hogs to the trough to devour all the sop and gush
dshed out to them about the marriage of movie actress
to useless and parasitic overload of postage stamp prn
cpaty supported the sknnings from guble tourists
who flock to Mediterranean ports seeking something
All this inane trivalty and slop dished out by the
American press out to supply the demand of the

prefer sw and garbage to wholesome food They prefer
big dishes of all the houm and buncombe about the Kelly

MUDDY WATERS FOUL
FISHERMEN THIS WEEK

Generally speaking, sportsfish-
ing, especially for channel bass,
has been far below par during the
current week, in the surf and in
lets of the Dare Coast. But early
Thursday Ed Fike on a visit to
Mays Head gathering material for
his fishing column in Virginian
Pilot picked up some encouraging
news. Said Ed:
81 have just talked with Coach
Copley of Elizabeth City who flew
over Oregon Inlet sector yesterday
and he reported seeing two large
schools of channel bass working
close inshore between the LISTS at
Rodanthe and Oregon Inlet. Cop
ley also had report from a Naval
lieutenant who had flown over the
Rodanthe area on Wednesday who
reported sighting five large
schools of channel bass and they
too were working close inshore and
headed northward."
Fike who is an expert fisherman
himself stated that he believed the
channel bass fishing should begin
to pick up this week end at Ore
gon Inlet and along the surf, to-
wards the LISTS and other Hat
teras Island sloughs along the
beach.
Scotty Gibson from Hatteras
reported that four puppy drum
were landed in the surf on the
north shore of Hatteras Inlet yes
terday and that an angler whose
name he failed to get repeatedly
caught 35-pounder at the Ocra-
coke Point of Beach at Hatteras
Inlet also.
Gibson stated that the reason
in his opinion, surf and inlet fish
ing has been so poor during April
when it is usually at it's peak was
because of the waters backed into
the sounds recently receding to the
sea. The waters have been stirred
up and muddy, he said.
A report from Buxton at moor
today from Chaplain Dick Titley
of the naval facility indicated thai
several puppy drum or young
channel bass had been caught il
the surf at Cape Hatteras late
yesterday afternoon.

FRESH WATER FISHING
GOOD AT CAPE HATTERAS

While surf fishing results at
fish-famous Cape Hatteras have
not been very encouraging during
the recent siege of abnormally bad
weather, another kind of angling
in the Buxton region is attracting
considerable attention. according to
Harold Fuller of Fuller Brothers
Store there.
NAVAL personnel at the new
photographic facility now nearing
completion have been having excel
lent luck with fresh water cast
ing" he said. "They tell me that
it is not difficult to get your limit
of largemouth bass and Dream in
the fresh ponds.p
The fresh water fish being
caught in the ponds of Cape Hat
teras are not large, but they are
offering a sport that few people
have ever enjoyed in that salt wa
ter fishing area. "Most of the bass
are about the size of a mans
hand, a pan size," Fuller stated.
He credits the good fresh water
fishing there as result of stock
ing the waters with bass and
Dream about two or three years
ago by the Wildlife Resources
Commission. Worms for bait have
brought best results for the fresh
water anglers although some
catches have been made with artifi-
cial lures, the jitterbug, being
favorite.

INCLUDE SAFETY IN
HOLIDAY PLANNING

Homes, churches schools and
places of business planning holi
day parties should make fire
safety as much part of those
plans as the decorations or re-
frCshmcnts.
Holiday parties often center
around a Christmas trce-and
because trees are extremely com.
bustiblc, these safety rules arc
suggested:
|. Don't set the tree up near
any stairway or elevator shaft
which would provide a draft.
z. The tree should not block
door or any exits.
3. Someone in authority should
inspect the tree every day to de.
tcrmlnc whether it should be left
up for a longer time.

HOW SANTA CLAUS,
IND. GOT ITS NAME

A familiar looking old gentle.
man with red suit and a white
beard was partially responsible
for naming the town of Santa
Claus, Indiana.
Except for a lucky break, the
town might have had another
name and thus would not have
enjoyed the annual fame that it
enjoys with each Yulctidc season.
Originally the name Santa Fc
was chosen, but officials in Wash.
inglon suggested another name
be chosen, since there already
was Santa Fc in New Mexico.
So it was that on Christmas
Eve. in 1882, citizens of the name.
less town gathered to select an.
other name. Suggestions were
tossed about for some time. until
Santa Claus, making his yearly
visits in the neighborhood strobe
in to get warm lie was attircd
in proper costume and his arrival
scmCd to put one name in every
mind.
And 50 tho Ir"n was named
Santa Claus.
