bath Day TO keep

deal of contro @s& ~ $
Versy between protesting Chris.
fans on whether the ay
should be Saturday or Sunday.
We will not argue the case here
but do point out that from the
beginning one day out of seven
has been set aside by God as a
holy day. This day is 70 be set
aside as a day of worship and
rest. Christians of ages past
have been prone TO press the
letter of the o. T. Command
ment while present day Chris
tians often conduct themselves
like the pagan world around
Them. God considers all work
other than acts of mercy and
acts of necessity as secular and
not in keeping with fhe spirit
of keeping the day holy. Buy
ing and selling should also be
SET aside. Recreation of any
kind that detracts from the
sacredness of the day and our
responsibility TO worship is
wrong. Christians are not to
force others TO observe this day
but should use their influence
TO get others TO keep it holy.
The difference in the way a per-
son conducts himself on this
day tells a great deal about
that person. lis the Lords
Day - keep if holy!

OREGON INLET LABELED
MOST DANGEROUS WATER

RALEIGH. - Oregon Inlet in
Dare County is North Carolina;
most dangerous water for boaters
according to an accident survey
just completed by North Carolina
Wildlife Resources Commission.
Three accidents were reported in
and around Oregon Inlet during
1860, claiming the lives of seven
people.
Altogether 70 accidents were re-
ported in North Carolina in 1860
with total of 81 fatalities. Under
the Boating Safety Act of 1859
all accidents involving fatalities,
injuries, and property damage of
more than 5000 must be reported
to the Wildlife Commission.
An accident in early June took
the life of a four-year-old boy,
who drowned when 17-foot
fishing boat swamped. Another
passenger in the boat was revived
after an hour of artificial respi-
ration.
Two more deaths were recorded
in September, when 14-foot boat
carrying two persons failed to re-
turn. Their fishing boat is thought
to have capsized. Their bodies were
found several days later.
A December fishing trip claimed
the lives of four, who launched
their 19-foot craft in the Atlantic
on the Pea Island side of the inlet.
Their capsized boat was found with
in the inlet, but so far the bodies
have not been recovered.
This report, above all else points
up the need and value of motor
boating regulations for the protec-
ton of people against their own
carelessness.
Commission officials stressed
that the swift current flowing
through the inlet were probably re-
sponsible for other accidents that
went unreported because no serious
damaged resulted.
"We don't want to discourage
people from visiting Oregon Inlet"
boating safety specialist Duane
Raver stated. eve do want boaters
to realize that this water is danger
Gus for the small boat, and every
precaution should be observed"
"Tides flowing through this in
let are deceptive" Raver continued,
"and accidents which might be
simply nconvenient elsewhere can
have tragic results here"
Experienced shippers, particu-
larly in charter boats and larger
outboards, can navigate Oregon In
let with reasonable care. The week
end boater, accustomed to inland
lakes and rivers, should treat this
water with extreme respect" he
added.
Two of the accidents are thought
The coastland times with which is combined the pilot and herald of Belhaven and Swan Quarter. [volume] (Manteo, N.C.) 1959-1973, 1961-05-19

to have been capizings, and Raver
explained that life preservers, if
used, might have prevented some
of the fatalities. "a life preserver
is helpful only if you can reach it
in time," he said, land in any
treacherous waters it's a good idea
to wear the life preserver at all
times" The law requires that all
motorboats powered by more than
10 horsepower must carry life pre-
servers for all passengers.

He Could Be MANAGER of the Year
BY FRANCIS sTANN

BOB SCHEFFINC1 is A LARGE, peace
able man who, nearing 49, has a full head
of iron-gray hair and what appears to be
sincere confidence that his Detroit Tigers
still can win the American League pen
nant. After 127 games" Scheffing says,
we're still only two games behind the
Yankees. I think we're as good ball club
We're leading them for the season so far"
From reliable sources it is learned that
Scheffing was the third, perhaps fourth,
managerial choice of the new Tiger owner
ship, headed up by John Fetzer. Originally,
Fetzer sounded out Casey Stengel. This
was after Casey had grown too old for the
Yankees. Then the post was offered to
Paul Richards, who seemed to be consider
ing several job opportunities last November
Bill Rigney, later named manager of the
Los Angeles Angels, was strongly in con-
tention, too.
The Tigers were lucky, it turns out, to
have landed Scheffing His club already
has won % more games than it had won on
August 81 in go and, instead of being in
sixth place, Detroit has been in the lead
longer this season than the Yankees. The
Tigers are an entirely different group now
They are fast reSourceful and confident
They were dealt two cruel blows when
Third BaSeman Steve BoroS and Catcher
Dick Brown were injured They're still on
the inactive list and may not be of much
help again this year. But the Tigers still
carry the fight to the Yankees.
SITTING IN HIS SMALL office at Grit
fifth Stadium, Scheffing refused to bemoan
the loss of his two regulars. I'D like to
have BoroS healthy now," Bob said, but
actually we've played even better lately
with Fernandez at shortstop and McAuliffe
on third. This has been our best month I
think we've won something like 10 out
of 26"
BoroS dislocated his shoulder in a COL
liSion with Pitcher Frank Larry $3.50 on
July %. Brown sustained a badly damaged
finger when, freakily, pitch grazed Batter
Billy Martin and caromed off the catcher'S
finger Broke the first knuckle and took
flesh and tendon, too Worst finger 1 ever
saw says Scheffing, who had been an
intelligent if unspectacular catcher him
self for the Cubs. TOO bad. because Brown
is very good man behind the plate"
