On several occasions we've
dodged around sturgeon nets in

i B. J. White's three daughters
went out after sea mallet, hung
7 cobia that straightened their
hooks and broke their lines. They
also counted 8 ? cobia cruising
around their boat. Mrs. White,
an enthusiastic cobia fisherman,
hung a big one Saturday, lost
Mm, had the same luck Sunday.
No doubt about it, the time has
come for all good cobia fishermen
to oil their reels and go after the
biggest and hardest fighting game
fish that comes into inshore wa

was a 58-pounder.
A private boat from Sonny's

90 blues caught while trolling
300 to 400 yards off the beach.
Fishing with Theodore Lewis

Ocean pier fishermen are now
getting blues in good numbers, on

to play la (he annual east-west
baaketball came at the North Caro
lina Coaches Association clinic in
Greensboro Aug. 44.
Phillips won a berth on the east

"Bo" Farley at Greenville. There
will be 11 boys on each team. The
showing made by the players dur
ing this game may decide scholar
ships (or some at them
Phillips already has his? a More
head Scholarship to the University
of North Carolina. This is worth
more than an Bthletic grant-in
aid, so Phillips will not be under
the pressure of knowing his edu
cation depends on hitting the bas
ket.
Thanks Endorsers
In an interview yesterday Phil
lips said that he was very happy
to have been selected on the east
team. He told sports editor Bob
Seymour, "I thank you and all the
coaches in the county who en
dorsed my recommendation and
made my selection possible.
"Even though I will not be at
Carolina under an athletic scholar
ship, I plan to go out for the bas
ketball team. I love to play ball
and would consider it a real honor
to play at Chapel Hill."
Phillips' coach, Gannon Talbert,
says that Carolina Coach Frank
McGuire has had his eye on Phil
lips for the past two years. "Lou
is a big, fast boy who can hit
from outside. He is good enough
to play a guard position at Caro
lina or anywhere else in my opin
ion," said Mr. Talbert.
Scores 391 Points
Phillips played in 14 games dur
ing the regular season and scored
391 points for an average of 27.9
points per contest. His size (6' 3"
and 190 pounds) gave him a big
advantage under the basket where
he was a top-notch rebounder.
Phillips was a member of the
All-Seashore Conference first team
in the 1956-57 season. The All
Conference team, sponsored by
THE NEWS-TIMES, was selected
from players representing 15
schools.
After the conference folded last
year. THE NEWS TIMES honored j
an All-County team. Phillips was
a unanimous choice to this select
team.
An outstanding student, Phillips
will be able to devote plenty of
time to basketball and still keep
up with his college studies, pre
dicts Coach Talbert.
Tobacco Plants ?
Get Good Start
By HENRY E. KENDALL
Chairman, Employment Security
Commission
Onslow tobacco plants are being
transplanted and although start
is slow, plants seem to be thriving
and showing good stands. Carteret
strawberries are being harvested.
Some intra state migrant labor
is in the county harvesting crops,
local labor Is also being used. Po
tatoes, cabbage and snap beans
are looking better than had been
anticipated. Cabbage cutting will
start between the loth and 15th.
Wages: All farm work 60c per
hour.
Potato stands now appear about
15 per cent under normal in sec
tions where estimates can be made
with any degree of accuracy. To
bacco plants transplanted are
showing rapid growth and good
stands. All crops are looking bet
ter. Cabbage is now being cut in
Mt. Olive area and eastern coun
ties will begin cutting between the
10th and 15th. Strawberries and
turnips are being harvested.
The radish harvest has reached
its peak. Most truck crops are
from a week to 10 days behind
schedule. A demand for greens on
northern martlets has created a
sale for "run-up cabbage. Rain
in southwest areas has prevented
setting tobacco and planting other
crops except on high ground.

Teenagers Must
Take Realistic
View of Life
By DOROTHY V. WHIPPLE, H.D.
When children reach their teens,
they begin to take a pretty realis
tic view of themselves.
There is nothing more important
for the truly mature person (han
to be able to evaluate himself
honestly, and further to be able to
accept that evaluation without
fears, doubts and recriminations
It's the job of the wise parent
to tread that narrow path between
praising and urging on to greater
accomplishments on the one hand,
and accepting real limitations on
the other.
Kurt had always been a good
student in the lower grades but
as he went on into senior high
school the going was harder. One
evening he told his dad he was
going to drop out of the debating
club before they kicked him off
the team.
Dad was shocked and he began
with some remarks to the effect
that of course he could do it, but
there was something in the boy's
face and manner that pulled his
dad up short. The boy wasn't ask
ing for encouragement, he was
stating a fact.
Understanding Dai. ^
"I'm sorry Dad," he said, "but
I know I can't do it."
"Well, son," replied dad thought
fully, "nobody can do everything
and maybe it is better you get off
the team gracefully."
Relief dripped from the boy.
"I hoped you'd understand,
Dad," he said.
Kurt felt better because his dad
could accept him even if he wasn't
the ball of fire it would be nice
to be. But if dad had brushed off
the boy's worries, given him a glib
pat on the back and told him of
course he could do it, the boy
would not have been convinced.
He would have felt resentful and
guilty and a good bit more inade
quate than he had need to be.
Sister Helps
Anne was talking to her younger
brother.
"All right, Dick," she said, "you
and I are bright. Let's face it with
out beating around the bush. We
are probably above average but
neither one of us is the genius Dad
is, nor the genius he thinks we are.
Dad's a genius at engineering but
he's a dumbell when it comes to
knowing anything about people."
"Dad wants me to go to engi
neering school."
"Yes, I know," said Anne, "and
he wants you to go to M.I.T. be
cause he went there."
"Anne, I know I can't be at
good an engineer as Dad and be
sides I don't want to be an engi
neer anyhow."
Ambttkws Parent
"Don't let him force you, kiddo.
I don't think you'd make a top
flight engineer either but you're
bright enough to do what you want
and what's more you're bright
enough to know what you can't
do."
Anne had fought her battle with
dad. She was close to the problem
and could give her kid brother the
undemanding be couldn't get from
his father.
It's very hard for many parents
to see their children as they really
are.
The parents' hopes and draami
of the future becloud their judg
ment. All too often their subtle
pushing, their ready and unrealis
tic encouragement only breeda hos
tility and rebellion In their sooc
to-be-grown-up children.

Silent Standish
Has Talkative
Mechanicsburg, Ohio (AP)? More
than 300 years ago, legend relates,
a Pilgrim named Myles Standish
was unable to speak for himself
and thereby lost the prize.
Intervening centuries have
brought a change. Descendants of
the silent Standish are speaking for
themselves, and winning prizes for
doing it.
The latest is Betsy Cushman, 16,
of Mechanicsburg. An 11th gen
eration descendant of Captain
Standish, Betsy already has won
three speech contests. Two of her
sisters have also won speech con
tests, and her mother, Mrs. Robert
Cushman, won one in the late
1920s.
Betsy's ancestor is most often
remembered because Henry Wads
worth Longfellow wrote a poem
100 years ago called "The Court
ship of Miles (Longfellow changed
the spelling) Standish." It tells of
the Pilgrim's inability to propose
to Piscilla Mullens, the girl he
loved.
According to Longfellow, he ask
ed his friend John Alden to pro
pose for him, which set the stage
for Priscilla's famous reply "Speak
for yourself, John."
John did. and Priscilla married
him instead of Standish. Historians
dispute the truth of the tale, but
not the existence of Standish, who
died in 1656.
Although she doesn't have her
ancestor's reputed reluctance to
speak, Betsy appears to be just
as much a leader as the Pilgrim
captain. She's head band majorette
at her high school during the foot
ball season and a varsity cheer
leader during basketball season.
Her great grandmother, a daugh
ter of a seventh generation des
cendant of Standish, moved from
New York to Ohio in the early
1800s, married Charles Cushman
and began the present branch of
the family.
Betsy isn't shy about proposals
of marriage, either. She says she's
already had one, and it's under dis
cussion.

Students Use
Log Dormitory
At University
Fayette, Iowa (AP)? A log cabin,
its exact age lost with the passing
years, is serving as a dormitory
for three Upper Iowa University
students.
John Gutz of Hampton, Jim
Thompsen of Belmond and Tom
Swale of Clear Lake? lowans all
?rented the cabin from Miss Stella
Latimer, on whose property it
stands.
"It was pretty much of a mess
when we first looked it over,"
said Gutz. "We understand that
no one had lived in it for some
time, and we had a big cleanup
job on our hands."
Some paint and liberal use of
"elbow grease" and cleaning pow
der rectified that. Then the three
students bought a few pieces of
furniture spending $10 for a rug,
$11 for a refrigerator and $5 for
a studio couch that makes up into
a bed.
The telephone, hi-fi record play
er and radio in the single 14 by
16 foot downatairs room are in
decided contrast to the rough
hewn log walls. A similar size up
stairs room is used for sleeping.
Thompsen is the cook, hasten
ing to explain that he has no truck
with dishwashing. Gutz and Swale
take care of that chore along with
the housework. To help out with
the food bill, and add variety Is
their diet, all three go hunting and |
fishing.
The cabin has an oil heater, but I
the students keep it in reserve for
the most severe winter weather.
They say the large fireplace across
one end of the cabin does a good
job of besting.
The students worked during (he
(all with a local woodcutter who
paid (hem off with a ton of fire
place wood.
PALM releases has proven to be
a valuable asset to this aggressive
unit and helps set a high standard
for the entire service. His flying
ability and rapid advancements
brings much credit to his home
town of Morehead City.

Editor Gives Suggestions
For Cleaning Waterways
New York? Refuse and debris or
American waterways are approach
ing The proportions of a national
disgrace according to William Tay
lor McKeown, editor of Popular
Boating.
With 27 million Americana on the
waters this year, many at them
newcomers to boating, old seagoing
traditions of cleanliness and sani
tation are being violated constant
ly be ajrys. Water-borne litter la
defacing our shore lines and float
ing debris is actually endangering
boats under way.
Mr. McKeown proposes ten rales
to help keep America's waterways
clean. They are:
1. DO carry a travel-trash bag
or container aboard your boat, ani
bring it back to port for proper
shore-side disposal if poasible.
2. DO curb the urge to throw
trash over the side of your boat.
S. DO diapoae at trash While
?float only In legal deep-water
areas far out from harbora and
?bore fronts, and only la closed
and weighted containers which
will sink to the bottom.
4. DO puncture tooth ends of
cans so they will sink and dispoie
of them in the areas listed above.
5. DO observe all Federal, state,
and local sanitation laws.
8. DO prevent the discharge of
oil or gas into waters where they
will be carried into shore areas
and kill animal and plant life.
7. DO maintain your waterfront
docks and structures so that they
do not become dilapidated.
8. DO clean tip all picnic and
camp sites so that no trash could
be blown or washed into the water.
?. DO aet a good Utter disposal
example for your children.
10. DO report any cases of
stream pollution to your local
authorities.
