ANGLERS LEARN TO
LIKE BLUE MARLIN
AS GOOD FOOD FISH
Many Of These Large Specimens
Are Going Into Steaks For
Home Deep Freezers
By AYCOCK BROWN

The novelty of bringing giant
blue marlin into port is sort OF
wearing itself out along the coast
of Dare where more of the biillfsh
are taken than anywhere else along
the Atlantic.
That is the novelty of just bring
ing the big fish in to show off does
not occur as often now as when the
waters off Hatteras and Oregon
Inlet became internationally famous
for billfish catches generally and
blue marlin in particular, a few
years ago.
Fifteen percent of the giant blues
taken last year were released while
alive. Two dozen have been tagged
and released so far this season off
Hatteras alone, and others out of
cruisers from Oregon Inlet.
In the beginning few people
thought of utilizing the carcass of
a giant marlin as food, but now an
estimated half of blues brought
ashore are made into steaks and
taken HON by the lucky anglers
for deep freezing or smoking.
This year too, in order to learn
more about the migratory habits of
the big fish, scientists from State
College, Duke University, Universe
ty of Delaware, Woods Hole Ocean
ographic Institute, Yale University
and the University of Miami have
visited the Dare Coast to make
scientific records of blue marlin,
tuna, white marlin and other bill
fishes. More about the habits of the
big fish will be learned as re-
suit.
Under the leadership of Charles
F. johnson, president of Hatteras
Marlin Club a mriane laboratory
has been established at Hatteras
for studying game fishing gener-
ally but blue marlin and tuna in
particular.
Recognition of releases by an
glers, as we'll as catches of blue
marlin is being made this year by
Dare County Tourist Bureau.
Through the cooperation of Al
Pfleuger of Miami, attractive cita-
ton forms have been printed and
will be presented all anglers catch
ing billfish, or catching and releas-
ing billfish.

FIDDLING PREACHER
ON PROGRAM OF
HAYMAN REUNION
Some Dancing May Be Done.
When the loo-Year Old VIC
lin Plays at MAINS Harbor

Some dancing may be done when
a fiddling preacher plays his 100
year-old violin Wednesday, July
goth, (next week) at the annual
Hayman reunion at Manns Har-
Dor. Rev. L. D. Hayman, whose ia
Their and grandfather before him
were noted fiddlers, will bring the
old instrument up from Southport,
and play it for the visitors.
Not many people know about
preacher Hayman's fiddle, which
saw service in World War I in the
battle area overseas, and got back
with just enough scratches on it
70 boast of having served Uncle
Sam. 1t may be used next week
for an old time frolic dance such
as those his father the late Dan
lei Hayman, Jr., played for in his
Youthful days.
Back in 1897, Mr.. Hayman, the
father, almost got turned out of
the Kitty Hawk Methodist Church.
He had done something many peo-
pie viewed with disapproval. He
had bought fiddles for his sons
Dan, and Louis, now the preacher.
He won out in this trial.
If Rev. L. D. Hayman plays for
a dance at Manns Harbor, we shall
see what happens. Maybe it will
be a good one for Ripley. Mr.. Hay
man is now on the retired list of
preachers, but is still working, and
serves the church at Yaupon Vii
lage, in southeastern N. C. But
his old friends home have begged
him to come back with his fiddle,
and this he will do.
The relatives, friends and visitors
will gather on this famous soil of
historic significance at Manns Har-
Dor for their fellowship, fun, and
whatever business may need to be
attended, incident to keeping this
ten-year old organization a going
concern. The members of this gath
ering and their friends have met
every year since its beginning, oft
en- at Manns Harbor because of its
central location, the willingness of
the people there to arrange for
the meeting. and the unanimous de
sire of the folks from other sec
tions to come fels the day. The
president, Mr.. Hayman has notified
the several officers and committee
chairman as to plans for the day.
These leaders are scattered around
some of them living in Norfolk,
Elizabeth City, Columbia, Kitty
Hawk, Roanoke Island and many
other places.
The local officers at Manns Har-
Dor are Mrs. Shirley Spencer, vice
president, Miss Inez Gibbs secre-
tary, Mrs. Oma Pearl Daniels,
Treasurer, Ira Spencer, Jr., execu-
tive secretary. Others officers are
James w. Davis of Wanchese and
Mrs. Dewey Tillett; Avery Tillett,
Mrs. Oma Pearl Tillett and Mrs.
Rosalind Swain of Kitty Hawk;
Mrs. Southgate Lehman of Nor
folk; Mrs. Carrie Penn of Clayton
and several others serve on this
Board of Managers and Assistants.
