DEAR MISTER EDITOR:

they refuse the explanation. You

But l think the real reason
Russia stays mad at us all the
time is because they owe US
money. The maddest my neigh

time he owed me ten dollars fer
helping him do some ditching.
He said the ditch filled back up

Two Ocracokers had surprise
visits from old friends recently.

Joe Waters" They hadn't seen
each other in twenty-five years
when they worked together in
Philadelphia. big joe, native
of Cedar Island, is now living in
Norfolk and had found his way
down to Ocracoke via the ferries
and the new road. Charlie Garrish
received a similar surprise visit
from Harry Starr of Creswell
whom he had not seen in twenty
years, and another from Johr
Riggs of South Mills. He had
worked with them in Elizabeth
City and Norfolk.
Mrs. Annie Phillips and her son
Mr.. and Mrs. George Phillips, Of

the only school building in the
county with screens. Total cost
$2O2,299
Now with over 800, or more than
two thirds of all the school chill
dren in the county assigned to the
Manteo school, and this school be-
ing financed by additional taxes
voted by the citizens of the dis
tricts the school serves, it is up
against a proposition to equip the
! new building. Moreover, some of
the pupils attending this school live
in areas not taxed to support the
school, which throws an additional
burden on those who pay for the
building.
The Manteo school Is now faced
with the problem of getting nee
essary furniture and equipment
for the new high school. 1t is
interesting to note what the PTA
and other citizens have contribut-
ed to the Manteo school in recent
! years. Read;

ground equipment now on the
grounds; added fluOrescent lights
to all classroOms; beautified the

WIDE FAME IN
JUNE BROUGHT TO
LOCAL WATER S
Blue Fish Swarm Toward Inle+s
and Giant Marlin In Numbers;
Small Fish Too

Dare Coast fishing by anglers
operating out of Oregon and Hat
teras Inlets has attracted nation
wide attention during the month
The most newsworthy fish, the
varieties which attract anglers
from distant places to the shores
of Dare have been blue and white
marlin, big bluefish, and tuna.
During the past week five blue
marlin were landed from Hatteras
| based boats. The total blue mar
lin catch during the month ending
June Is was &c, of which II
weighed more than 400 pounds
and one weighed $40. Douglas
Bournique of Wisconsin who
caught a pair of white marlin (of
which IL have been taken so far
this year, stated that he had fish
ed in many places for these giant
billfish, but that without question
the Cape Hatteras area is now
the "blue marlin center of the
world"
John Wood of Princess Anne,
Va, and Mrs. Wood, have caught
four blue marlin in less than two
weeks. Of three he landed the
largest was 400 pounds but each
weighed more than 400. Her fish,
taken off Hatteras on Wednesday
this week scaled at 225 pounds.
Other big fish have included
Allison or yellowfin tuna. A New
Jersey angler caught a 1471a
FOUNDER from an Oregon Inlet
based boat while a Norfolk fish
erman boated a 100 FOUNDER from
a Hatteras boat. Scores of yellow
fins in the 25 to so pound class
have been taken.
Since they were found in vicinity
of Wimble Shoals, June 8, more
than 1000 giant bluefish, the fab
ulous "Hatteras Blues" weighing
from 10 to Is pounds and averag-
ing IL to IA pounds have been
taken by anglers aboard inlet
based cruisers. They have also
been catching plenty of dolphin
and oceanic bonita.
Small Varieties Plentiful
While it is usually the big game
varieties that make news, more
people fish for small species such
as croakers, rockfish, founder,
trout, whiting and small blues.
Each of these varieties were plen-
tiful not only in the Dare Beaches
surf region, but also the inlets of
Oregon and Hatteras, and in Pam
leo and Croatan Sounds,
Capt. Jesse Etheridge reported
several good catches of f10ander
and croakers during the past week.
Horace Hooper of Stumpy Point
telephoned about one party catch
ing more than 1875 croakers in less
than three hours near his village.
eve have four or five fishing
boats here that are available for
taking out parties" he said.
Chick Craddock of Manns Har-
Dor reported one party's catch of
almost 200 rockfish or striped bass
in the one and half pound class
during the past week. 1t was one
of several good catches anglers of
Manns Harbor boats have made in
upper Croatan Sound recently.
"They are also catching plenty of
croakers," said Craddock.
Fishing pier operators on the
beach have had excellent patronage
during the past week, an indica-
ton that fishing is good and a
variety of species being caught.

a community.
Up along Goose Greek, and down the
washington g. Old Dominion Railroad in
lower Loudoun and upper Fairfax Counties,
people are talking about water. What win
happen when Goose Creek becomes huge
reservoir to supply the Town Of Fairfax?
Almost everybody Is agreed that the
reservoir, when completed, will change the
face of lower Loudoun. And many resi-
dents don't like the prospects Of these
changes.
There Is still some hope among Lou
douners that the reservoir never will be
built Although Fairfax was granted per-
mission to construct 1t by the Loudoun
Circuit Court, and this decision was upheld
by the Virginia Court Of Appeals, there
still Is one more hurdle that must be taken.
The town must apply to the Loudoun
Board of zOning Appeals for permit to
construct the reservoir and the necessary
pumping station and filter plant. If the
board refuses, it could mean another fight
in court and possible further delays.
Many Landowners feel that Fairfax has
been allowed to take one of the county's
most valuable resources. Some believe, too,

proposed development of Goose Greek Is
planned on an inadequate scale, that the
proposed reservoir viii not provide the
maximum amount Of water possible.
They say some engineers have pointed
out that the reservoir, as planned, win be
subject to siltation and may not In the
future provide even the SIS million gallons
of water a day that Fairfax needs now:
Town officials say the reservoir may be
enlarged later to provide as much as IL
million gallons a day.
To many in LOudoun the proposed new
airport at Chantilly Is an indication OF the
development to be expected in the lower
section of the county-a development that
may be aided by an accessible water supply.
Fairfax Town Manager Glenn Saunders
says that while the first and primary pur-
pose Of the Goose Greek reservoir Is to
provide his town with a dependable water
source excess water win be offered for sale.
He explains that water from the town
system might be made available to the new.
airport, but that this will depend on the
amount of water needed by that facility
and the volume of the supply.
He says there are three possible routes
for the pipeline from the reservoir to the
town, and that naturally. II the quantity
is sufficient, water will become available
to developments along the line.
