PEA ISLAND A PARADISE
FOR BIRD WATCHERS NOW
BY AYCOCK BROWN

Rodanthe.-Pea Island National
Wildlife Refuge here on Hatteras
Island is one of the important
way stations along the Atlantic
Flyway of migratory wildfowl and
at this. season of the year it is a
paradise for the ornithologist or
birdwatcher who is interested in
seeing a variety of waterfowl. Al
though most of them have ALREADY
migrated northward, a few snow
geese, part of flock which reach
ed peak of 10000 during Decem-
Der, are still feeding on the flats
of the refuge.
Most noticeable of the wildfowl,
and after the hunting season they
become almost as gentle as barn.
yard fowl, are the Canada wild
geese. Approximately 1900 geese
were using the refuge this week
and that number will increase or
decrease from week to week until
this species also migrates to north
ern breeding grounds. That will be
in March, although some stray
lers, mostly minated fowl, will be
here most of the Spring.
There are also few blue geese
seen on the Refuge each year and
also Swan. About 20 varieties of
ducks also make the Refuge their
resting place during winter months.

VARIABLE WEATHER ROUGH
ON ALL WILDFOWL HUNTERS

Cold weather and icy conditions
during early January was a break
for hunters going after wildfowl
along the Outer Banks. Many re-
ported the best hunting of the
1888 season during this month,
but this week the weather was just
little too mild. The wildfowl
season closed on January Is and
hunting generally, since the sea-
son opened November 7, hasn't
been up to par according to re-
ports from guides and gunners who
took part in the shooting. This
weeks kill has been discouraging,

every inch the type t. redeem
a king from his craven folly by
rescuing the latter's dead queen
from her grave.
Bill Whelan Is Admetos,
Thessaly's sniveling monarch
who deputies his wife to die
for him, has a much less. invit-
ing role and a more difficult
one. The precise degree Of his
weakness. pitiable or absurd,
was not ascertainable in the

Myrna Pagan whats she
doing at C. up is a lovely
Alcestis who spends most of
her time on stage as a corpse,
but her earlier half too-know-
ing and half rueful departure
from Admetos is afectingly
managed.
Christopher Kotschnig is a
bright asset to the production
as the god. Apollo, in the plays

handsome, slim Peter Ustinov

in his ungodly petulance.

is once more handled by a uni
versity group with that musical

Mr.. Waring who, as c. US
stage designer. never lets any
one down takes positively bril-

of the "Alcestis." Also, his
regular conspirator in making
university productions dazzling,
has done his usual superb job
again. The latter would be
Joseph Lewis.
