A comeback pitcher who

q hot bat, and an aging marvel
who's simply one Of the greatest
hitters in baseball annals.

Lefthander Curt Simmons, an
ailment-plagued reject by Phil
adelphia when he was picked
up by the Cards two years
ago, maintained his perfect
season record in the 7-3 victory
Carl Sawatski, second string
catcher behind Gene Oliver,
sparked the attack. And Stan
Musial, the durable great
closed in on still another record
with q pair Of singles that
lifted his league-leading aver
age to Q slightly sensational
.So4.
Fifth Complete Game
Simmons became the first
pitcher to 60 the distance
against the Giants this year
in their 28 games, throwing a
nine-hitter in his fifth victory
and fifth complete game In as
many starts. Sawatski drove in
four runs with q homer and
two singles, zooming his aver
age to .389. And Musial, the
frisky 41-year-old. inched to
within one hit Of Honus Wag-

BUILDING INSPECTOR
TO SERVE ALL DARE
COUNTY.C CONSIDERED

The feasibility of having a
single building inspector for all
of Dare County, with a view to
uniformity of regulations and
enforcement, was discussed
Monday by the Board of County
Commissioners and the Nags
Head Town Board.
The boards named two mem
bers of a tentative four-man
committee, with the other two
to come from Manteo and Kill
Devil Hills if those communities
agree to go along with the pro-
ject. ~
Named were Lawrence Swain,
for the county, and Lionel Ed
wards for Nags Head.
The committet would draw
up qualifications for a county
wide building inspector for con-
sideration later by the four
governing boards concerned.
If the plan is adopted, the
Nags Head board estimated that
a tax levy of four cents per 500
valuation would be necessary to
meet the towns share of the
cost.

ENGINEER DREDGE HYDE"

by Cecil Henderson, a represen-
tative from the District Emf
neer's Office, who met with
Harvey on Thursday morning.
Harvey stated that work
would begin on Monday to clear
the channels across. the bar al
the inlet. "The channels have
suffered from serious shoaling
since the Ash W ed n sd a J
Storm" he said. "We hope that
the dredge will dig even deeper
than the minimum depth of Il
feet which is required" he
added.
The Oregon Inlet dredging
project was made possible by
the Rivers and Harbors Act ol
1850; it is a continuing function
undertaken by the U. s. Army
Corps of Engineers.

NEW CONTRACT
FOR TRASH AND
GARBAGE SIGNED
Dare Beaches Will Pay $1,000
Less in Year Beginning
- July !

A new contract covering trash
and garbage collections was
signed jointly Monday by the
Dare County Board of Com
missioners and the Nags Head
Town Board.
The new contract is more
favorable than its predecessor.
The price is $4,000 as compared
with $1O,sO0 for 1961-62 for the
Dare beaches area. For Roanoke
Island, the court is the same
as last year, $2,4O0. This covers
the island excluding Manteo,
which has it's own collection sys.
tenn.
The two boards met jointly
to consider sealed bids for the
work. Only one bidder was
heard from, Leonard o. Midget,
who has had the contract for the
year ending June 30.
Under the new contract, col
lections are to be made daily
except Sunday from July 1
through September Is, then
twice weekly through May 81,
1868. During June of next year,
collections presumably will be
daily.
Midget informed the boards
that he was considering buying
a second truck to facilitate col
lections.
The boards method of financ-
ing the operation was changed
this year to a basis whereby
Nags Head and Kitty Hawk
will allocate nine cents each per
$1O0 of the tax levy to it. Last
year, Nags Head paid $1,000 and
Kitty Hawk $4,000. This year,
Midgett's proposal was for Nags
Head to pay $4,000 and Kitty
Hawk $4,000.
On that basis, busy statis-
ticians figured that Nags Head
would pay an eight-cent rate
and Kitty Hawk a 14-cent levy
per $100 tax valuation. David
Stick, chairman of the County
Commissioners and a resident of
the Kitty Hawk area, objected
strenuously to the differential,
contending that Nags Heads
favorable rate was predicted on
Kitty Hawks signing the con-
tract also.
Midget explained that the
higher proportionate charge
against Kitty Hawk was due to
the greater distance to be cover
ed, with resulting higher gaso-
line, maintenance and labor
costs.

WATER SYSTEM
TOO COSTLY FOR
FEDERAL AGENCY
Nags Head Meets Setback in
Application for 100000
Loan

Plans for a municipal water
plant for Nags Head, predicated
on a loan of a million dollars
plus from the U. S. Community
Facilities Administration, have
hit a snag, it developed at the
monthly meeting of the Board
of Town Commissioners Monday.
The commissioners were told
that their request for loan of
&,300s000 was too high, pro-
perty values and other factors
considered. 1t would have to be
scaled down $150,OOO to 100000
to have a prospect of approval.
Mayor Julian Oneto told the
board that he had failed to
make plane connections for a
conference with the Community
Facilities Administration in
Atlanta recently, but that C. C.
Tilley, of the engineering firm
of William Freeman, Inc, High
Point, representing Nags Head
and Kill Devil Hills, had present
ed the case for the beach water
system. Z.
Tilley suggested that a new
engineering plan, together with
eliminating the town hall and
fire department quarters includ-
ed in the original loan request,
might scale the figure down to a
figure acceptable to the Federal
agency.
= Original plans called for 16-
inch mains with fire hydrants
every 600 feet, among other
items. These will be restudied,
and cost estimates on materials
have been submitted to two ma
terials supply houses in the
hope that they can be reduced.
Meanwhile, the water system
has advanced a little further
into the future. The Town Com
missioners see prospect that
they may build the town hall
and fire department headquar-
ters, estimated at some $4,000,
as separate project. They are
hopeful that they can get the
necessary loan on a five-year
basis and repay it by adding
), only five or six cents to the
tax rate.

r. SOUND BRIDGE
TO BE NAMED FOR
.WASHINGT'N BAUM
Commissioners Submit Name OF
Dare's Veteran Judge
To Highway Dept.

The Roanoke Sound Bridge
will be officially designated as
the Washington Baum Bridge,
if efforts by the Dare County
Board of Commissioners are
successful. The Board unani-
mously agreed Monday to ask
the State Highway Commission
to designate the concrete con-
nection between Roanoke Island
and Nags Head in honor of the
"a year old Judge of Recorders
Court.
Lawrence Swain, Nags Head
Township Commissioner, who
proposed the motion, moYed that
"the Highway Commission be
requested to honor our most
progressive citizen, who, in
effect initiated the construction
of the first bridge across Roam
oke Sound, leading to the con-
struction of the Roanoke Sound
Bridge and the beach highway,
by naming the present Roanoke
Sound Bridge in his honor-The
Washington Baum Bridge.
Baum, was recently unsuc-
cessful in a bid to retain the Re-
corders Court Judgeship which
he had held for 80 years. The
ageing Judge is a former chair

topics of primary concern at the

NO INVITATIONS
FOR BOMB RANGE
MIDGET STATES

"If they are waiting for an in
vitation from Hyde County, they
can rest assured that it will not
come" These were the, words
used by State Senator P. d.
Midget in referring to a charge
by Air Force officials, on Tues
day, that they had been unable
to present their case concerning
practice bombing range to. the
people of Hyde County.
The charge had been made by
Major Gen. j. H. Moore of ,Sey-
mour johnson Air Base in
Goldsboro at a press conference
in Greenville on Tuesday. Mid
gett denied on Wednesday that
the Air Forces views had been
denied an airing in Hyde County.
Midget stated that a meeting
was held with Air Force officials
from Langley Air Base in Vir-
ginia at Engelhard last spring.
At that time the Air Force not
only told their story, but also
displayed the equipment propos-
ed for use on the bombing range,
Midget said.
Midget stated that Air Force
officials came to Engelhard as
guests of the Rotary Club, "and
the meeting set off a Juror in
Hyde County. They convinced no
one that the range would not be
extremely detrimental to the
country" he said, "and the
vigorous opposition expressed by
the people of Hyde County at
that time has neither diminished
nor weakened"
Told that the Seymour John
son officials would welcome an
invitation to discuss the mattar
with the people Of Hyde County,
Midget said 1if they are watt
ing for an invitation from Hyde
County, they can rest assured
that it will not come. Z"
