COUNTY SPENDING FOR
STUMPY pr. WATERFRONT
Dixie AND BULKHEAD

Through the generosity of the
Board of Commissioners of Dare
County, there will be expended in
the Stumpy Point community some
$4,000 without local interests hav-
ing to meet the requirements of
the small harbors law, by putting
up some of the cost. A contract
was let last week to George A.
Daniels of Wanchese for $2,S95 to
build a bulkhead at the mouth of
the old county ditch at the east
end of he community.
In order to administer the $685.
900 granted from Hurricane relief
funds, the county has obligated the
sum of $4,000 to speed construction
of a sandhill along the shore of a
portion of the village to keep storm
tides from coming in. This COM
was hardest hit during hur-
ricane Donna, which accounts for
its having received the greater part
of the relief money granted in the
area, and was awarded on the basis
of representations made by the
county board.

DEDICATION THURSDAY
OF PLAQUE IN THE
ELlZABETHAN GARDENS

On April goth, at 2:3O PM, a
large bronze plaque on the front
wall of the Eizabethan Garden on
Roanoke Island near Manteo, will
be dedicated. Mrs. J. B. A. Daugh-
fridge of Rocky Mount, President
of the Garden Club of North Caro-
lima, Inc, will preside. Mrs. Inglis
Fletcher will give the dedicatory
address. The honored guests will
be the four women who have been
chairman of the Elizabethan Gar
den Committee since the decision
to build this Garden in 1951-Mrs.
J. M. Tyler, Kinston; Mrs. Glenn
Long, Newton; Mrs. Roy Home
wood, Chapel Hill and Mrs. Cor
bett Howard, Goldsboro. The money
to pay for this plaque has been
raised as a tribute to these women.
The inscription on the plaque,
written by Mrs. Fletcher, is as
follows:
"Down the centuries English wo-
men have built gardens to the
Glory of God, the beauty of the
countryside and the comfort of
their souls.
The women of the Garden Club
of North Carolina, Inc, have plant
ed this Garden in memory of the
valiant men and women who found
ed the first English Colony in
America.
From this hallowed ground they
walked away through the dark for
est and into history"
"1585-1951"
The Garden is now in full bloom
and for the next several weeks will
be especially beautiful with dog
woods, azaleas, camellias and other
spring flowers. The Knot Garden
is exquisite with gay pansies and
edgings of helleri holly. The Mount,

WANCHESE SERVES AS
A HARBOR OF REFUGE

Wanchese with its harbor deep
ened with funds obtained by Con-
gresham Herbert c. Bonner has
not only been an unloading and
supply for the multi-million dollar
trawling fleet operating of the
Outer Banks during recent
months, but the harbor has also
been a place of refuge during
storm.
On Wednesday this week with
full gale warnings displayed and
winds which some reported reached
force in gusts, Wanchese
Harbor was crowded with large and
small fishing boats, which rode the
storm out successfully in the pro-
tected waters Of the fishing town
near the south end Of Roanoke Is

BOB l.. BASNIGHT is a product
of the Alligator River Country, and
he writes with the insight and en-
tertainment of Joseph Conrad,
about his voyage across Albemarle
Sound from Elizabeth City to ALI
gator River. We are grateful to
Mr.. Basnight for giving our read
ers an opportunity to follow him
self and a companion in small
sailboat "The Safari", last year.
Our rivers, and boating is in his
blood. His people were boatmen,
his father operates a boat plant,
and he is in the industry himself.
By the facility with which he writes
about boats and the water, we
would take it he is a remarkably
versatile young man in any capac-
ity. This piece is worth clipping
for scrap book, and we believe
it will fire others with the desire
to follow his sailings on our sounds
and rivers. He lives at sol w. Cy-
press St., Elizabeth City.

A Dare County resident, Mrs.
Virginia L. Davis, of Wanchese. is
one of four women from different
parts of the United States to be
chosen an Enumeration of the Year
(196O) and to spend a week april
80 at Census Bureau headquar-
tiers, Washington, D. c., as a re-
ward.
Mrs. Davis was chosen for her
work in the Census Current Bust
ness Survey held monthly in select
ed areas throughout the country
by the Census Bureau, U. S. De-
partment of Commerce, to gather
facts on the Nations business acti-
witty. Mrs. Davis worked under the
direction of the Charlotte Field Of
flee of the Census Bureau.
The four enumerators were
brought to the Census Bureau for
the dual purpose of enabling them
to view what is done with the ma
teral they gather-and to make
recommendations on how to i'm
prove the system-and of per-
permitting Census officials to
question the enumerators and
to obtain, first hand, opinions
on how the Census current pro-
grams work in the field.
AS part of the week-long pro-
gram of work and play-their visit
was scheduled TO coincide with the
famed Cherry Blossom Festival
the women were given gold medal
lions by A. Ross Ecker, Acting
Director Of the Census. The medal
hons are inscribed with the names
Of the enumeators and the pro-
grams on which each worked.

ter ferry service across Oregon In
let, and for putting employees OPP
Grating the boats in uniform, came
to successful conclusion this week
as the result of citizens having re-
Gently organized some 300 strong,
and going as far as Raleigh to see
the Governor, with their appeal for
relief from conditions which offer
great economic threat.
The ferry division now plans to
operate the boats from 5 am. to
8 pm. Crew members and pilots
will be required to wear uniforms,
there by presenting a better ap-
pearance to tourists. Woodrow Ed
wards of Waves, a retired officer
in Charge of Oregon Inlet Coast
Guard Station has been employed
as one of the pilots.
The united effort of the citizens,
led by Mr.. Edwards, resulted in
forming the Hatteras Island Bet
terment Association. The grjup
carried their appeal for improved
service to the State Highway Com
mission, and failing to get the re-
lief demanded carried their appeal
to Governor Terry Sanford, who
promised to aid as far as he could.
For his efforts in behalf of his
neighbors, Mr.. Edwards was re-
warded by employment on the
boats, due to his knowledge of the
waters and of the area and The
people.
The Highway Commission plans
to let contract this month to open
the old channel, whereby the short
run of 20 minutes may be establish
ed. This channel having filled up
last year, makes it necessary to
take the long way across. AS re-
suit traffic is tied up for huors, and
not adequately handled.

DRUM CAUGHT IN SURF
AT CAPE HATTERAS

First channel bass of the season
to be landed from the surf at Cape
Hatteras was reeled in by Deputy
Sheriff Raymond Basnett there
early this week. The fish weighed
AZ pounds according to Basnett
who was in Manteo the day after
catch was made.
In the meantime, surf and inlet
fishing for channel bass and other
varieties of game fish was report
ed spotty during the week, which
was to be expected considering the
stormy weather. All catches of
channel bass to date, excepting
Basnett's fish on Tuesday have
been caught in Hatteras Inlet or
along the surf between Hatteras
and the inlet-where a total of
some 20 have been taken.
