NEW HEARING IS SET.
ON SHELL DREDGING
AROUND DARE CO..
Interested Parties Urged to Al
tend Feb. 2 Meeting in
Elizabeth City

Attempts are again being made
to allow pilot dredging operations
for dead oyster shells in lower
Albemarle Sound. The proposal Of
an Elizabeth City group, reported
to be fronting for Gulf Coast in-
terests, are asking for permission
to dredge for oyster shells from
North Carolina sounds for CONVEX
sion into chicken feed and have re-
ceived a public hearing which will
be held on March 9 to determine
whether such an operation would
be in the best interests of the
area. The hearing will be con-
Quoted by the Commercial Fisher
les Committee of the State Board
of Conservation and Development.
Eric w. Rodgers, of Scotland
Neck, committee chairman, has
stated that the hearings will be-
gin at 10 am. and viii be held in
the auditorium Of the agricultu-.
raj annex to the Pasquotank Coun-
ty Courthouse. At that time, Rod
gers stated, proponents and oppo-
nents Of the dredging will be
heard.
The attempt to stir up waters
in the area by dredging operations
has been attempted ON numerous
occasions in the past. Proposals
for dredging in the coastal sounds
have been advanced during the adj
ministration Of Governors Scott
and Umstead and were defeated
each time through efforts of the
North Carolina Wildlife Fedora
ton.
Turner Battle Of Rocky Mount,
executive secretary of the Fedora
ton, said that dredging for these
shells or minerals in the coastal
waters would be detrimental to fish
and wildlife." Local opposition to
the shell dredging has come from
the Currituck County Board which
passed a resolution two weeks ago
protesting any attempts to use
Currituck and Albemarle sounds for
such purpose.
Preliminary surveys in Cur1ituck
Sound indicate about three million
cubic yards of she'll are present
with the possibility of 100 million
cubic yards available from the area.
Exploratory surveys in the eastern
portion of Albemarle have located
about 700 million cubic yards of
shell. Local oyster interests are vi
tally concerned over the disturb
ance of their bed by such an oper-,
alton, and fishermen fear the tur-
bidity Of the dredges will limit
Of light in water and
inhibit the growth of bottom
plants, which are essential in the
diet Of fish.

LOST COLONY'S
1862 BUDGET SET
AT NEAR $50. 900
Mrs. Morrison. Dorion and Thorn
as Among Attendants At
Saturday Meeting

The Lost Colony Board of Di-
rectors approved an operational
budget of $50, 900 last Saturday -af-
ternoon. The exact figure of $780,
600 was passed upon by Mrs. Fred
Morrison of Washington, d. C.
chairman of the group, who joined
with SID Dorton, Jr., former man
ager of The Lost Colony, and F.
Edgar Thomas, newly-appointed
manager Of the drama in approving
the sum.
Others present included Rep.
Keith Fearing, member of the exc
cutive committee of the Roanoke
Island Historical Society and Mrs.
Ina Evans, secretary treasurer of
that organization and former chair
man Of the Dare County Tourist
Bureau.
Actors and dancers salaries were
the biggest expenditure listed in the
1862 budget with an expense Of
SIS, 900; the figure was closely fol-
lowed by sum of $4,000 which
will represent expenses for produc-
ton staff wages. Publicity expen-
ses, another large item, will cost
approximately $12, 900. The sum of
81, 500 for the choir rounds off the
list of high cost" expenditures for
the drama.
The group was relieved TO note
that maintenance expenditures this
year will be considerably smaller
this year than. the $22, 900 figure
which was allotted in 1861. A sum
of only $1,000 will be used for up
keep during the current period.
To balance the costs for the out
door drama, which is now in its
25th year, a total of $4,000 is an
ticipated from gate receipts, and
$4,000 in income as a result of
subscriptions and contributions
from interested patrons. The bal
ance of approximately 5000 will
be collected from concessions, cusli-
ion rentals and souvenir programs
which will be on sale at the Fort
Raleigh site. The directors are
planning quite a few additions to
the souvenirs available to the public
and are expecting a marked in
crease in sales as a result Of the
change.
The directors, who were joined by
Aycock Brown, Lawrence Swain,
Mrs. Bob Preston, Archie Burrus
and Wallace McCown Of the Dare
County Tourist Bcreau, also decided
to invite members of the N. G. Cen
eral Assembly to Manteo, as guests
of The Lost Colony, at some time
during the performance this sum-
mer.. New promotional efforts were
also discussed before the group adj
journed. The organization will place
particular emphasis upon the ami
versary of the 375th birthday of
Virginia Dare, first child of Err
glish parents to be born in the Wes-
tern Hemisphere.
! Commemorative plans to mark
the event include the creation Of a
Joint congressional committee to
represent Congress at the exercises
in celebration of the anniversary.
The anniversary viii be celebrated

Explanation Of Tripe

Looking for a new taste"
to heighten interest in your
winter meals? Let tripe -
broiled, pan-fried. braised or
sauced - be the nutritious
meat to do 1t!
Tripe, one of the lesser
known variety meats, is es-
teemed by gourmets the
world over. Many q famous
chef has made his reputation
with this meat. The soft
white meat. the lining of the

First
Your Fish

Hook 'em and Cook 'em"
by Bunny Day, published by
Doubleday and Co. ($2.50) is
a down to earth book giving
tips on how to first catch
your fish, then how to clean
and cook with emphasis on
simplicity.
Mrs. Day, a native Balti-
morean, says in the preface
that she has kept the recipes
simple for the most part since
the taste Of fresh fish is so
wonderful it doesn't need a
lot of fancy cooking. All of
the recipes, she points out,
are in ter C h a n geable.
In a previous book the au-
thor went into all the ways OF
cooking Shellfish. In this
book she turns to bigger fry.
-. shad. founder, bluefish,
porgies, bass and swordfish,
etc.
One chapter she devotes to
casSeroles and chowders since
the fish used in both are
also interchangeable. The
last several pages are turned
over to sauces. Here again
the recipes use only simple
everyday ingredients that are
easy to come by. But, claims
Mrs. Day, for a slight amount
of extra work, a sauce will
change a plain, ordinary fish
into something that can be
claSsed as gourmet food.

Brahms Requiem

If this reviewer were to set
out to find a gift for a friend
of appropriate taste, he would
go no farther than A Ger
man Requiem by Johannes
Brahms. His selection would
be a two-record Angel album
by the Philharmonic Orches-
ira and Chorus, with SoloiSts
Elisabeth Schwarzkopf and
Dietrich Fischer Dieskau,
conducted by Otto Klemperer.
There, in a paragraph, is
the summation of one of
the marvels of the recording
age-Surely, to this listener,
the best we have heard of
Mr.. Klemperer in the large
scale works; surely. the su-
preme heights climbed by
Herr Brahms. With Fischer
DieSkau in the baritone parts,
with Miss Schwarzkopf in the
heavenly section dedicated to
Brahms mother, this is the
most exalted new recording of
the new season.
