CHANNEL BASS TAKEN
FROM HATTERAS ID. SURF

Hatteras.-Willie Newsome, of
fetal weigher of most of the fish
taken along the beaches here re-
ported more than a dozen channel
bass taken during the week. The
best catch was made on Sunday
when Guy Snyder, Portsmouth, DR..
E. v, Powell, Petersburg and
Frank McCaskey, Norfolk, reeled
in five ranging from 1914 down
to 80 pounds each. On the follow
ing day from a rough surf, Frank
Marshall and party of Winston
Salem, caught some three pound
speckled trout and four puppy
drum (baby channel bass) weigh
ing seven pounds each in the Vi
cinity of old Creed's, Hill c. G.
Station.
Largest channel bass reported
during the week was 411s pound
er caught by Bob Preston of Mays
Head, a professional surf fishing
guide, who was exploiting the wa
tiers of surfside slough four
miles south of Salvo.

check had closed his account. The
check was given on July, 1857 but
not deposited until the following
February. The audit shows the
county took in only $2,704 in air.
port receipts, yet paid out $1,000
for it's management, and $5O4 for
other labor and travel.
Another example is the Cape
Hatteras hospital. The county has
a contract paying literally for the
size of the audit it's getting for all
departments. Yet this little bit of
hospital is told to go ahead and
get another auditor at the expense
of $500 or more. Here $500 is
wasted for a job which should be
done under the county auditing
contract.
Further examples of financial
juggling indicate that the deficit
in the General fund of $48,O0O
would really be more than S97, 900
1t will be remembered some
months ago that the deficit would
run closer to 100000 than to $780,
600. We were not too far out OF
line, for the recent auditors report
shows that the Board covered this
up, by shifting to the health fund
the following amounts:
An August Ia, 1858, the $780,
905.22 of prior years garbage col
lections and prior years mosquito
control expenditures in the amount
of $4,425.62 We're shifted from the
general fund to the health fund
Now by some long stretch OF
imagination, we can assume the
collection of trash and garbage or
the beach is in the interest OF
good health, and spraying of oil
to discourage mosquitoes may be
healthful, if the mosquitoes are
malarial, at least in the interest
Of good temper. But in actual
practice, this doesn't look exactly
right; for it has the misleading eff.
feet of making it look like we
have a department of health as
extravagant and careless as the
welfare department, to its dis
credit, while taking attention away
from the size of the deficit anC
waste and extravaganza in the
general fund.
