MOMENTS TO REMEMBER
Holding Sea Scrolls
Brings TroveI Thrill.

Holding charred fragments
from the Dead Sea Scrolls in
her hands was a big thrill for
Mrs. Pearl Martufi, $50 Port
land street Sc.
Ever since a Bedouin boy
discovered the parchments in
a cave in Palestine in 1947,"
she writes, II had yearned to
go to Jerusalem and see at
least the jars that had con-
tanned the Dead Sea Scrolls.
1.-TWO years ago my husband
and ! made the journey during
Easter week. Mr.. Saad, Secre-
tary of the Palestine Museum,
patiently related to us the story
of the discovery, considered the
greatest of modern time, and
personally conducted us on q
tour of the museum.
HE pointed out some Of the
jars that had contained the
scrolls and long tables that held
assembled pieces of parchment
fra g m ents between glass
squares. Dedicated scholars
studied them intentiy, oblivious
to curious visitors.

Wushington's
Rood Reopens

Vermont has reopened the
Bayley-Hazen military road
ordered built by Gen. Wash
ington early in the American
Revolution.
1t was a part of the grand
strategy of that war to capture
Canada. The road began al
the last Of the Connecticut Val
ley settlements and reached ur
over the highlands of Vermont
to the Canadian border.
When the building had al
most reached the border, WASH
ington again personally ordered
it stopped.
While the road never served
its military purpose, it did serve
to help settle the northern
frontier near the Canadian
border.
Towns along the route of the
old road have spent a year in
research and location of the
original road, along with its
taverns. The town Of Danville
among others, has completed a
reSurvey and has cut brush
and forest to open a path the
length f'the township.

MACS HEAD, N. C.-Two
new marinas are operating here
this summer.
Latest soundSide attraction
is the new Holida Marina on
Kitty Hawk Bay, featuring fish,
ing facilities, picknicking and
colorful sailboating. This is
the first to offer sailboating in
this area.
The boats, built locally, carry
multi-colored sails, and they
are proving as popular with
the color camera fan as with
the sailing enthusiast. Water
skiing also is expected to be
offered at the new marina in
the near future.
The other marina type in
stallation is at Little Bridge
between here and Manteo.
There skiffS are available for
rent to the angler who wants
to fish in nearby waters.
The Little Bridge construc-
ton was finished recently, re-
sulting in the speeding of traf-
fic on U. S. Highways "a and
264 between Roanoke Island
and the beaches.
The new road between
Whalebone Junction and Cape
HatteraS National Seashore
headquarters near Oregon In
let has been opened to traffic.
The road winds through marsh
land and passes ponds where
many varieties of water birds
may be seen, including white
and blue heron, egret, and-for
the first time this year-the
glossy ibis.

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va
Although 500 fishing plaques
were awarded last year to salt
water anglers, more than that
number will be given out in
1859, Claude Rogers Of Vir-
GINA Beach, predicts.
Rogers, director Of the Vir-
GINA Salt Water Fishing Tour
nament, said that 292 plaque
winning fish have been caught
so far this, year.
The yearly tournament
started May l when Virginia's
Gov. j. Lindsay Almond, jr.,
made the first cast into the
surf near Virginia Beach. That
year thousands of anglers seek
is species of fish ranging in
size from a 12-ounce white
perch to a 50-pound white
marlin.
Under tournament rules, those
whose fish reach the accept
able minimum weight in its
class win plasticized plaques
giving the name of the angler
and information on the catch.
The current tournament
runs through November /.
Already, according to Rogers,
the number of award-winning
5-pounds-and-over founder has
surpassed the 1858 total at
this same time. Last year only
103 five-pound founder were
hooked compared to the las
which have been checked
through the official weighing
stations in 68 Virginia COM
munities so far this year.
Among the top award win
ners last year - anglers who
caught the largest single fish
in its class during the tourna-
lment-was Larry Stone of
Washington, D. c., who took a
68-pound channel bass on a
bottom fishing trip off the Vir-
GINA Capes. This bass was %
pounds heavier than the 40
pound minimum needed to win
a plaque.
In the 1858 tournament there
were entries from % States and
several Canadian provinces. A
