EARL DEANS SCRAPBOOK
TO THE UNIVERSITY

James w. Patton, director of
the Southern Historical Collection
at the University of North Caro-
lima, came to Manteo this week
to pick up Earl Deans scrap book
collection of things written about
Dare County and 1.-THE Lost
Colony" which were published in
newspapers and magazines all over
the United States.
DR.. Patton is taking the ma
terial, which consists of 60 large
volumes, back to Chapel Hill
where they will be indexed and
made available to students of his
tory as a part of the University
library's archives.
Compiled over a period of 80
years, Deans scrap books contain
thousands of stories and pictures
which tell the complete story of
celebrations at Fort Raleigh and
"The Lost Colony" as we'll as the
history of Dare County. They will
be of inestimable value to any
one interested in the long and
glorious history of this section of
the coastland.

CIVIL DEFENSE RADIO
CLASS LICENSED BY FEC

"The Dare County Civil Defense
Communications division under the
leadership of Communications Of
ficer, Goodrich Williams, has aided
eight Civil Defense radio students
in obtaining their amateur radio
licenses" says Robert X. Gum,
Civil Defense coordinator for Dare
County.
Last week the Federal Com
munications Commission in Wash
ington, D. c., granted Novice radio
amateur licenses to Jack and John
Earle, Mrs. j. Fred Roush, and son,
Freddie, James Cuthrell, A |
Wright, Carl Swain, and Fred
Trew.
Civil Defense Communications
Officer, Goodrich Williams, and
Alternate Radio Officers, Mickey
Bridges and Randie Houston, offer
advanced training in radio theory
and code. This will permit holders
of the Novice license to study for
the General Glass license. Only
General Class operators are auth
orized to operate the Dare County
Civil Defense Communications sys-
tenn being established at the air.
port. e.,
A Civil Defense Communications
plan for Dare County has been
prepared by Goodrich Williams.
This plan and an application for a
station license for Dare County
was submitted to the Federal Com
munications Commission early in
January.
Holders of amateur radio Ii
censes are permitted to operate
privately owned radio stations on
specially designated frequencies.
There are approximately 100000
licensed radio amateurs in the
United States. Although the anna
tours operate their radios as a
hobby, they also use them as a
means of communications during
times of such disaster as hurricane
and flood. For example, during the
recent hurricanes along our coast,
the radio amateurs in the Will
mington-New Bern and Norfolk
areas maintained twenty-four hour
schedules. They kept in contact
with local storm conditions. When
power and telephone lines We're
down they were available to aid
in dispatch of boats for flooded
areas, life-saving equipment and
medical supplies.
If the Dare County Civil De-
Tense Communications division had
been operating during the recent
hurricanes, local storm conditions
and correct reporting of storm
damage to Dare could have been
made Immediately, local Civil De-
Tense officers stated. "Such erron-
eous reports the "washing-away of
the Dare eBaches", and "destruc-
ton of the Wright Memorial
Bridge by high tides, would not
have circulated in our neighbor-
ing cities. These frightening re-
ports scare away the tourist trade,
our main source of income" they
said.

PROGRESS is MADE IN
ORGANIZING CUB SCOUTS

Three basic training sessions for
parents of prospective Cub Scouts

Manteo under the direction of
Raymond Collier, Albemarle Dis
trict Commissioner, and assisted
by Messrs. Hart, Stokes and Smith,
all of Elizabeth City. The antici-
pated local organization has been

teo PTA is the sponsor.
At the session held Tuesday
night, March IL, the following per-
sons were selected: for Cubmaster,
Gustaf P. Huffman; Assistant
Cubmaster, Ralph Davis; Pack
Committee Chairman, ]. Fred
Roush; Committee Secretary, Mrs.
G. P. Huffman and Committee
Treasurer, Mrs. Ralph Davis.
The next meeting will be held

ming will be done for the first
Pack meeting to be scheduled for
later date.

be issued by the Boy Scouts of
America national headquarters in
New York City in time for pres
entation at the regular Manteo
PTA meeting scheduled for April
80.
Sincere appreciation is express
ed to those gentlemen from Eliza

iMANTEO COUPLE IMPRESSED
WITH FlORIDA'S CLEANLINESS

Mr.. and a'rs. o. ]. Jones re-
turned last week to their home
near Manteo after a three-weeks
trip to Florida. They visited many
places on Athe Florida east coast,
including the Florida keys, and
returned by way of the states
west coast.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jones were greatly
impressed by the courtesy and
cleanliness found everywhere in
Florida. On several occasions,
stated Mr.. Jones, hotel and motel
operators went to much trouble
to find accommodations for them
when their own places were filled.
Nowhere did they. see such an UNI
slightly scene as a garbage pail
sitting near the highway to be
picked up. Such things were some
where out of sight. One man talk
ing to Mr.. Jones pointed out the
fact that he had noticed on visiting
Mays Head the unsightly array of
garbage put in full sight of tour
lists, while awaiting COLLECTION.
Another item impressing Mr..
and Mrs. Jones was the beauty and
profusion of the flowers blooming
in Florida, and the orderliness of
the lawns. Their visit was at the
peak of the winter season, and
they found rooms hard to get and
high-priced. Other expenses were
moderate, perhaps lower than at
home.

FIRE DEPARTMENT FOR
OCRACOKE ISLAND IS
CIVIC CLUB TOPIC

Ocracoke Civic Club held its
March meeting Monday night. Aft
,er refreshments, there was further
discussion of the proposed volun-
teer fire department and the OBJ
tanning of equipment for it. Infor-
nation was presented on the sub
ject of possible savings in insur-
ance premiums to be obtained from
the establishment of such a serv-
ice on the island. A letter from j.
Emmett Winslow, Highway Com
missioner, was read, containing in
formation about studies now being
made for completion of the Ocra-
coke road. Plans were approved for
continuation and broadening of the
clubs present service in providing
publicity for those enquiring about
Ocracoke from elsewhere. Plans
were continued for further war
on mosquitoes, hoped to be as sue
cessful or more so than last sea-
sons battle. Volunteers to perform
portion of this work were obtain
ed. A volunteer was obtained to
accomplish the transportation of a
surplus truck from Pea Island
Wildlife Refuge, for local use in
attempting to establish trash re-
moval service comparable to that
now in successful operation in
communities further north on the
Banks. After exhibition of a NOV
ing picture on insects and insect
destruction, the meeting adjourned.

oysters) homes and protection
from natural enemies.
Although final figures for the
States oyster season, which opens
on October 1 and closes March l.
are not complete, Holland esti-
mates not less than 100000 bushel
tubs of oysters were taken from
North Carolina-controlled waters
during the five-month period. This
means the State will not have to
purchase any shells for replanting,
Holland hopes.
1t was, according to oyster taxes
already collected by Holland and
his aides, the best season oyster
men have had in State waters in
several years.
Federal figures supplied by DR..
Chestnut show 1,318,00O pounds of
oyster meats harvested in North
Carolina waters in 1856. Oyster
meats average about six pounds to
the bushel. In 1866 the federal fig
ures showed 731, 900 pounds after
the hurricanes of 1954-1955 had
done such great damage to the
oyster producing areas along the
coast.
DR.. Chestnut attributes the in
creased production of oysters to
closer supervision, better manage
ment, and the greater emphasis
that is being given to the rehabili-
itation program by the CID De-
partment and other State agencies.
