LISBON, Portugal, May 81
P1.-The Council Of State
ruled acceptable today the
presidential candidacy of Gen.
Humberto Delgado. arch foe of
Premier Antonio Salazar.
Gen. Delgado had expected
the council to bar him from
from the June 8 election be-
cause Premier Salazar controls
the council. Gen. Delgado has
promised that If elected his
first act will be to fire Mr..
Salazar. He predicted that
civil war would result if his
candidacy were rejected.
The council also accepted
the candidacy of Admiral
America Tomas, the man Mr..
Salazar's national union party
designated to succeed President
Higino Craveiro Lopes. Most
betting is on Admiral Tomas to
win despite enthusiastic crowds
turning out for Delgado meet
ingS.
Also accepted was the candi-
dacy of DR.. Arlindo Vicente of
the democratic opposition al
though he withdrew yesterday
and urged his supporters to
vote for Gen. Delgado.
Gen. Delgado's headquarters
announced earlier in the day
that police raided there last
night and seized a quantity Of
published campaign material.
Some Of it was returned later,
but Gen. Delgado fled a strong
protest.

MANTEO REDSKINS AND
WINDSOR LIONS TIE FRIDAY

The Manteo Redskins ran into
surprisingly strong and stubborn
Windsor team last Friday night
at the Manteo field and had to be
satisfied with 1918 tie. This was
Manteo's third conference game
and they now have ILL record.
The Redskins outstanding run
ming team failed to gain much
yardage against the stubborn
Windsor line, and Manteo began
passing and it was through this
route that Manteo scored their
two touchdowns. In the first quar-
ter, DETECTED pass bounced into
the arms of end Gary Meekins for
the Redskins first touchdown,
with Jack Wood adding the extra
point. Jeffrey Midget passed to
halfback Hughes >Tillett for the
second touchdown, and the extra
point try failed. Score: 1870 at
halftime.
Windsor's kickoff was fumbleld
by Manteo on their own 35-yard
to start the second half and Wind
sor promptly drove over for their
first touchdown. Manteo made
good gains on the ground in the
second half, but a penalty stopped
every march; also several inter-
ceptions by Windsor stopped the
Redskins drive. In the fourth quar-
ter, an interception by Windsor
set up their second touchdown and
their try for extra point was good,
for 1918 tie. A Manteo drive
ended when time ran out in the
game with a first down and goal
to go.
This week, Manteo is scheduled
to play Central at the Manteo
field. Central always seems to play
its best against Manteo, and this
year early reports state that the
Central line averages 200 lbs. Mr..
Ayers put strong emphasis on his
team will be tough to run against.
The team greatly misses the
services of back Billy Brown, who
received a broken leg in the
Weeksville game. Mr.. Ayers has
8 backs that show good potential
ity in replacing Brown, but none
have his experience. These boys
are Charles Reber, Merrill Wins
low, and Tony Tillett. Reber was
used against Windsor and did some
fine running; Winslow is the most
experienced of the three and will
see considerable action. The out
come of this Fridays game will
depend on the passing and running
OF Jeffrey Midget and the defense
play of the line.

LESLIE J. O'NEAL DIES
IN COLUMBUS, OHIO

Leslie J. O'Neal, 40, World War
II veteran, son of a prominent
Hyde County family, operator of
a business in Columbus, Ohio, died
at his home in that city of a heart
attack in his sleep Saturday NOR
ming. His remains We're brought
back to his old home, and funeral
services were conducted Tuesday
afternoon at 3 pm. from his moth
er's home at New Holland and
burial was in Soule Cemetery, Ber-
ry Co. funeral directors. The fu-
neral was conducted by Rev. A. c.
D. Noe, former pastor of ST.
Georges Episcopal church.
The members of Atlantic Mason
ic Lodge No. 1894 of Swan Quarter,
in which the deceased held men,
bership served as pail bearers and
conducted graveside services.
Mrs. O'Neal is the former Made
lyn Brookly of England, whom he
met during the war. The couple is
greatly beloved one in Hyde
County. They had two sons and two
daughters.
Mr.. O'Neal was the son of the
late Leslie O'Neal of New Holland,
and Mrs. Irene Sadler O'Neal who
survives him. Leslie O'Neal has
been dead only few months. Pri-
or to his death he lost two other
sons and a son-in-law. There has
been more than the usual share of
grief in this family in a short
while.
Two brothers and two sisters al
so survive: Capt. Dempsey O'Nea.
USA of Paris, France, and Repre-
sentative Dick O'Neal of Hyde
County; Mrs. Charles Behnen of
Paris, France, and Mrs. Theo Ea-
son of Wilmington, N. C.
In Ohio, Mr.. O'Neal was state
representative for the American

manned in the courthouse.
The reference to being 81 per
cent complete does not mean that
he thinks the New Jersey boys did
a 976 job, Capt. Tillett says. He
says he means that his office has
made score of 979o in following
the formula set up by the Commits
sioners, and that their orders have
been carried out with respect to ap-
praisal of taxes and getting the
property on the books like they
said do.
We like to print Capt. Tillett's
viewpoint, and we give him credit
for being in honest agreement with
his neighbors who consider this
Jersey job an outrage on the peo-
pie of Dare County. Commissioner
Hailett Perry says he opposed the
thing at the time the contract was
asked for and when it was let.
The only trouble is that the OBJ
lection was not strong enough, and
it subsidized with that days meet
ing of the Board. Some vigorous
effort outside, some desire to adj
wise the public, might have result
ed in the deal having been blocked.
AS matters now stand, the Com
missioners still want to give the
Jersey boys $2,545.1O but the
county doesn't even have the mon
ey to pay it. Last month they gave
them $7,666. Previously they had
given them $10,5O0 and most any
body who mentions it thinks this
sum was many times more than
the job was worth. In fact, there
is widespread belief that the coun-
ty would have been far better off
had they never come into Dare
County, even though it had lost
the whole $4,000.
AS Capt. Tillett has been quoted
as saying early in the picture: and
as many others agree: at cost
$4,000, it viii. cost $4,000 to
straighten out the mess, and will
cost % years to live it down in
Dare County"
We give Capt. Tillett credit fol-
a long record of honesty, fairness
diplomacy and neighborliness. In
fact it is hard to find a nicer fell
low, and one who tries harder to
treat everybody alike. Like others
of his friends, its distresses us tc
find such men in the company he
is in.

SAYS OcRAcCKE FERRY
IS OPERATED BACKWARDS

To the Editor:
1t puzzles me sometimes how
smart people can do some of the
things they do. Take the one round
trip day of the Hatteras Inlet
ferry. 1t leaves Hatteras early in
the morning, a schedule designed
for the convenience of the employ
es and not for the Ocracoke people.
1t leaves here at noon. People leav-
ing here on this ferry, have to
break their 'necks to get to Oregon
Inlet in time to cross in late after
noon if there is any delay.
1t don't help folks who come to
Ocracoke for they have to stay all
night anyway. It's a disadvantage
to Ocracoke people generally who
have to go away, for in many
cases it keeps them two nights
away from home when one could
do. This ferry ought to leave
Ocracoke in the morning, leave
Hatteras at noon, and thereby be
of advantage to the people. It's
been a long standing belief that
the ferry schedules are made to
suit the men who run the boats
and not the travelling public. This
seems proof of it.

To The Editor:
AS motorboat activity slows for

portunity to thank the COAST

campaign for safety on the water.
Although the toll of death and
destruction is still alarmingly high
and growing, l feel that the fig
ures would be even worse if it.
were not for your public education
program. 1t seems that the phe
nomenal increase in recreational
boating has brought a similar in
crease in inexperienced and impru
dent operators on the water.
/, therefore, deeply appreciate
your frequent publication Of. boat

ries, and / look forward to the dis
tant day when such coverage will
no longer be necessary.
