LARGE WATER SOURCE
ADEQUATE FOR BEACHES
OF DARE IS REPORTED

RALEIGH-Two new untapped
areas capable of furnishing more
than one and one-half million gal
Ions per day of ground water have
been located in Dare county in a
section of the Outer Banks that in
cludes Mays Head, Kill Devil Hills
and Kitty Hawk.
DR.. ]. L. Stuckey, State geolo-
gist and head of the Department
of Conservation and Developments
mineral resources division, re-
vealed the discovery of the ground
water supply following investiga-
tons involving the drilling of 10
test holes approximately 100 feet
deep in a 17-mile long area.
The drillings were carried out on
a cooperative basis by the ground
water branch of the U. S. Geologi-
cal Survey, the Department of
Conservation and Development,
and the Dare Beaches Sanitary
District.
They were made because current
sources of water in the Dare
Beaches Sanitary District in guam
tity as well as quality are not
sufficient to meet daily and sea-
sonal needs, DR.. Stucuey said.
When developed the two hither-
to untapped areas are capable of
furnishing more than one and one
half million gallons of ground
water on a sustained safe yield
sonal needs, DR.. Stuckey said.
The Dare Beaches Sanitary Dis
trict in which the Investigations
We're carried out extends from
Whalebone on the Outer Banks
north II miles to a point where
U. S. Highway 15S turns west to-
wards Point Harbor and includes
the widely known resort areas of
Mays Head, Kill Devil Hills and
Kitty Hawk.
The purpose of the survey was
to locate and define previously I'M
tapped resources of ground water
and determine the amount and
quality of water than can be
pumped from them on a sustained
yield basis without causing salt
water encroachments, DR.. Stuckey
explained.
He said detailed results of the
Investigations will be presented in
a report now being prepared.

RURITANS PUSH PLAN
TO EXPAND ORGANIZATION

WAKEFIELD-Officials of Rur-
itan National are continuing to
knock on official doors in Washing
ton in an effort to expand their
organization.
Following up an earlier visit
with Secretary of Agriculture Ben
son, National President, Fred X.
Belts, III, of Harrisonburg called
Friday on George Allen, Director
of the United States Information
Agency. Belts was accompanied by
George Harris, III, Assistant Ex-
ecutive Secretary of Ruritan Ma
tional.
Belts reported that Allen was
favorably impressed with Ruritan
National-and said so.
"He was very much interested in
helping Ruritan go international"
said Belts. He thinks it will help
rural areas of other countries
especially in Latin America, where
good many people have lived I'M
der relationships and haven't had
enough experience in democratic
life"
Allen suggested that Ruritan-
now confined mostly to the eastern
half of the United Statesmen go
too far from home in going abroad.
He mentioned Canada, Mexico and
Cuba as likely areas for expansion.
