PAGE EIGHT 711 L UiiALTOiU .s.. EEAUFOttT. BASEBALL PRESSBOX By A. R. RICE V. Davis fanned eleven and allow ed tight scattered hits as he and his mates took advantage of numerous Harkers Island errors and made the most of their own six hits to win from the Islanders here Sunday 4 to 2, the first test for Beauiort this Nine of Davis' strikeouts came in the lust five innings in which only one man reached first. D. Willis singed to start the ninth, but was caught attempting to steal. He, by the way, was the only visitor to get two safeties during the nine innings. Harkers Island scored first in the second. With two away F. Willis singled and scored on Hancock's double. Beaufort made it one-all in their half of the same frame. Van horn doubled, went to third when D. "Yeomans, visiting pitcher, fumbled Clark's grounder and tallied as Scott, catcher, threw wildly to third in an attempt to nab him. Harkers Is land's second and last tally came in the fourth on two-baggers by E. Guthrie and T. W. is. A base on balls to Davis and . ccessive hits by Willis and C. Hass.il counted one for Beaufort in the fifth. Another was added in the next stanza on success ive doubles by clark and Hatsell and the final came in the eight on two errors and a stolen base. Leftfielder Moore muffed Vanhorn's fly after a long run, he stole second and coun ted when Clark's smash went through first baseman E. Guthrie. At this juncture Yeomans was replaced on the slab by Moore who retired the side. Yeomans had walked five while Davis passed none the whole game. r u 7 ...... u.. - t .. i 1 v. jicisat;! was nit: uilij lutai piajti j to collect two hits, one third of the total collected by Beaufort. The fielding feature of the game came in the fifth when two away and runners on second and t;iird F. Longest of Beaufort cannonaded one at C. Guthrie at short stop who cau ght it at his shoe toes. The whole winning team featured defensively, playing errorless ball. R. Hassel, local catcher, caught two men trying to steal second. Harkers Island pulled two double plays Two of Beaufort's runs were unearned. The strong Textile Mills team of Kinston plays here next Sunday. Beaufort took a patched up team to Straits Wednesday and returned home on the lang end of a 7 to 6 score. Bonner Guthrie caught and uid a good job of it; Hatsell pitched, allow ed 8 hits, one a homer by W. Chad wick; G. Hassell, first; W. Thomas, second; Sanders, short; Willis, third; Clark, C. Hassell and J. Skarren outfield. Only five of this lineup are lcgulars on the local team and all played out of position with the ex ception of Willis.

Straits plays in the local park next Wednesday and the Kinston Textile Mills play here Sunday. I. N. MOORE OPENS UP NEW GROCERY Located On Front Street In Building Formerly Oc cupied By Betts With a complete line of groceries, fiuits and vegetables on display I. N. Moore, who for several years con ducted a similar business near the eastern end of the downtown district, opened a new store last week-end in the remodeled building formerly oc cupied by Betts Bakery. Mr, Moore was for years a well known figure in local retail grocery circles and at one time his business was tremendous. During later years he was forced out of business by heavy unpaid accounts on his books, but he is determined to make a come- I back, and a comeback he will make 1 judging from the way he has start ed. Located near other local grocery funis, independent and chain, will give him an advantage he did not have before. I lie is assisted l.i i t operation o; j the store by niemb.v of his family. Included in 1 is .-tock of goods will be found th" naHnnully advertised brands that are o.i the shelves of other local grocery stores. A host of friends are wishing Mr. Moore well on his new venture in the retain gro cery business. The May pea crop in Pasquotank County left a lot of headaches and gent G. W. Falls, who says growers want some kind of farm program tJ aid truck in that section. New Street (Continued from pa?? one) the channel from the Fisheries Lab oratory on Pivers Island and con necting up with driveways on eith er side of Community Center Audi torium leading from the wateffront to Lenoxville road. Beaufort's Waterfront Drive will be unique in that it will permit a continual and wide view of sunound ing waters, unbroken except for the three-town blocks where buildings are locate.! on the south side of the street. Beaufort is one of the few, if not the only mainland town on the South Atlantic coast which has an unbroken vie of the ocean. This, a long with the fact that the Gulf Stream climate is unexcelled from a health standpoint, makes Beaufoit one of the most desirable areas along the coast for home builders. In the 1' ' the piincipal draw-back from the stanJpoint of residential devel c ;:.icat has been the lack of building sit.s along the waterfront. With the completion of Fiont Street extension, many building sit.is will be available, but the mosc uv.i'ul purpose of the street will be a n.. - route to the fast growing Len oxviile area. At the present time the most congested section of Beaufort is in the vicinity of Lenoxville Road anJ Atlantic Highway. From a traffic stanrlpi int, the completed road will be most useful. i.-t -ou.d liU-e to : j.uie the business leaders or who over it was t'n-M --A'.:' the Isbjv it-itiJi exi-st-in at the shirt factory in Morehead City recent' y. They rre tJ bt con gratulated for bnekin? the CIO or whatever it was that would have or ganized the wo-keis there. Those business leaders did something which General Motors and any num ber of lar?e corporations in the United States failed to do and why the editors of the state papers, who are more interested in such matters than an insignificent weekly newspa per editor on the Carolina coast, did not pick the solving of the situation up for editorial material has me won dering. LAST WEEK we published a let ter from James W. Stewart who sug gested that the Commissioners ap point as successor to County Attor ney Luther Hamilton, his relative Attorney Alvah Hamilton and as successor to Democratic Executive Chairman Luther Hamilton, Register of Deeds Irvin W. Davis. Crowded for space the editors note at the bottom of the letter was not used. In it the editor suggested that since no legal move is seldom made in Cai teret county without advice fiom Julius F. Duncan, he was the most logical man for the job. By ma1:: a. Julius F. Duncan county attorney, the commissioners would be usiiv, excellent judgment and incidentally give the job to the man who is al ways called upon by all attorneys hereabouts when they have a ditii cult question of law before them Manye people are favoring J. F. Duncan for county attorney, regard less of whether he is Democrat. Re publican, Socialist, Communis r what not. The foregoing is not sai with any reflection on the legal ta! ent of Carteret, it is given only tr illustrate a fact. LEGION PIRATES TO PLAY OPENER League Includes Manteo, Beau fort And Kinston; Play Till July 15 Carteret Pirates, the junior base hall team of this county sponsored by Carteret Post 99 of the American Legion will play the opening league jvame of the season here on Monday when they meet the Legion sponsor id team from Kinston. The Legion League includes Beaufort, Kinston and Manteo and their schedule calls for a number of games between now und July 15, at which time the win nor will go into the state finals. Caitert pirates include the fol lowing boys: Willium S. Thomas, West H. Taylor. Charles Hamilton. Clyde D. Merrill. Albert C. Channel of Beaufoit; Bonner M. Guthrie, Ver r.on O. Faul Jr., Ben S. Wade, Fletch er Piner, John H. Harker and Verna Sanders of Morehead City; W. Mon roe Mason,, Troy W. Hamilton and Clayton Fuleher Jr., of Atlantic and David Yeomans of Harkers Island. The ages of these boys range fro -13 through 16 year3. Coast Guard Bill (Continued from page one) fighting for the 20-year retirement status. Both Congressman Barden and Senator Reynolds are close friends of the Coast Guard service and al ways play important roles in any legislation presented in their be half. Also an important friend to the Coast Guard Service is Congress man Lindsey Warren of the 1st N. District. He recently secured the dollar a day subsistance money for enlisted men, which had been taken away a few years. Waterfront ( Continued on page eight) can be used as a shirt factroy the proposition certainly sounds good. IN THE MEANTIME this column- FISHING AND OUTDOORS (Contniued from page one) LIGHTSHIP BUOY the center c dolphin playgrounds off shore fror Cape Lookout has recently been r placed by a new clean buoy. Th does not improve the fishing in the vicinity any, because these fast swim ming multi-colored beauties school around a buoy or some floating ob ject covered with barnacles cr sec growth. Clean buoys have little at traction for dolphin. If Gulf Strtair. fishermen see a palm tree, a box, ar. oil drum or some such object ifloa ing with the current they should he;:., for that locality, because it is a sure bet that dolphin are playing around same. SPEAKING OF barnacles, the kind one sees attached to off shore objects are very unlike those on the piles of docks and bridges. The same kind are found off there, and somewhere I have one measuring two inches in diameter which came from the hull of Diamond Lightship but the red beauties of the barnacle family are goose neck varieties, which are found frequently attached to any object floating or anchored in the vicinity of the Gulf Stream. GAME WARDEN Leon Thomas re minded me again this week that many of the dog owners down east are violating the hr.v by permitting their deer hounds to run at large. The owners of dogs who allow them to run at large are subject to indict ment. It is not unusual for a pack of hounds to go into the East Carter et woods and open grounds and chase and kill fawns just for the pleasure they get out of it. Thomas says this is the last warning, that he has a list of dog owners who are not keep ing their hounds tied up and soon there will be arrests. I WISH I had gotten the name of that angler who landed a channel bass wkh rod and reel from the surf on Atlantic Beach last Sunday. That is not only interesting news, but also swell publicity and a good advertis ing feature for the resort. Clean sands, safe surf and Channel Bass Fishing . . . .That is a godo combi nation for any publicity man to rave about. IN WASHING i ON (Continued Ir-m pi?-' (,r-c) in i.ur . -Ouomic system which are. be yond 'heir control. As I write this weekly article, there is on my desk a letter from Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, in which she gives me a few iimpressions of her recent trip to Eastern North Car olina, at Wallace. Some of the ex pressions are certain to bring pride to any North Carolinian Sre said in part. "I wa.i struck bv the fa:1 " : Che Coastal Plain Station .vus u.i.ig such good work in developing now things to grow in the South" "I think that a population which is so largely Anglo-; - ; n origin makes any develop-in nt much easier" "The spirit shown in such a small place as Wal lace i.n -ijing all they did for their strawberry festival seemed to me extraordinary and could mean only a determination to succeed in what ever they undertook" "I think this is a most interesting part of the country" North Carolina generally will applaud these very sincere compli ments to the state and our people, coming from the First Lady. Speaking of agricultural income. Pe.-ently there was subm'tted to Con gress - report of the Federal Trade Commisiioa with regard to its in inquiry on the subject. Of parti cular interest tj my state is confir mation of the belief starred by many that the present ' taxes on tobacco se.ioujl' -.ct the price the faimtr receives i're l is leaf tobacco. On this point, tha report says: "The cigarette industry is domi nate? by four brands of cigarettes whose manufacturers maintain iden tical prices and change these prices upward or downward almost simul taneously with no apparent relation to eitne: leaf tobacco or other price levels. Although in recent years the sale volume of ten cent cigarettes has indicated the existence of the THE FROST IS , Of THE RICKEY UN-HEAT YOURSELF ; ; with ' a Calvert Gin Rickey!

HAMILTON'S FIRST COURT OPENS JULY 12 i The Governor's office has announc ed that Luther Hamilton of More head City, appointed last week to the superior court bench, would hold his first term of court in Washington county. The week"s mixed term will be gin July 12. Hamilton will replace in Washing ton county Judge Clawson Williams, to whom a commission was issued to day to begin a two-weeks special criminal term in Mecklenburg coun ty June 28 to replace Julge M.

AT COURT HOUSE IN BEAUFORT TO REVIEW 1937-38 PROPERTY VALUATIONS IN MOREHEAD CITY AND BEAUFORT All persons desiring to come before the Board please note the following schedule and come according to time designated for various townships. MONDAY, JUNE 28th. Morehead City TUESDAY, JUNE 29th. BEAUFORT four b;adir.g brands has not been seriously impaired. The uniform internal-revenue tax of $3 per thou sand on small cigaiettes has been a faction tending to restrict the com petition of the lower-priced brands. "It is believed that the use of a different basis of taxation would pro mote competition within the cigarette industry and that this competition would in turn result in increased com petition in the purchase of leaf tob- 3Cl0. "The Commission therefore recom mends that Congress consider the ad- Thursday, June 24, 1937 visability of levying, in place of the piesent uniform tax, graduated ac cording to the manufacturer's net selling price. In this connection, it should be noted that since manufac turers do little if any retailing of cigarettes, any effort to graduate the tax according to the retail price in stead of the manufacturer's net sell, ing price would be an attempt to base it upon prices which the law forbids the manufacturer to control." Obviously, here is a condition that should be considered when Federal tax revision is undertaken.
