Tarpon are still hit ting laity, but anglers can't land theat, and that's the dark cluud m the pier operators' horiion. Blileflsh are picking up again, and a few flounder are being re ported; so good fall fishing is just around the corner. Offshore boats have been getting into big schools of dolphin: Carl Massey and party from Lexington caught 46; Mary Z, with F. E. Cafflpodonlea and party from Co lonial Heights. Va., came back With T7 ddtptin; Dr. D. J. Kindel and H. J. fflebenthaler of Cincin nati, Ohln, caught 27 dolphin with spinning tackle and 8-oound test tine aboard Bunny loo; Frank Koehter ami party, Union, N. J., caught 20 dolphin aboard Dolphin HI. Kings are stilt scattered, but am berjack and false albacore are abundant. Inshore boats continue to make good catches of blues and span ish, and report large schools of Spanish along the beaches. Theo dore Lewis, Johnny Styron and Joe Rose took a busman's holi day, went fishing together, came back with 39 blues and spanish; they didn't agree on the count, but they did agree on the good fishing. Headboats are still making very good catchcs of big sea bass and porgies ; over a period of several weeks the sea bass fishing has been the best of arty season since we began reporting in '55. In soand and river there are signs of fall fishing: a scattering of blues, flounder and trout; croakers, spots and hogfish are plentifnl. Cobla fishing, off to a good season after several false starts, seems to be winding up the same way: Mr. Hines from Fayettevtlle came back to Bunch's with 3 cobla; other ang lers come in occasionally with one or two cobia. The Fabulous Fishermen's tro phy list is complete, and trophies repfesentinu 20 species from sea mullet to .sailfish are on display at Capt. Bill's.

The win put the Athletics in a tie position with the Bobcats (for merly the Bee team), for first place in the Beaufort Churches League. Each team has won three. The Cubs are bringing up the rear with one win. The Bobcats led off with 9 runs in the first two innings to the Ath letics' 2. Hassell's homer coupled with a base hit by Jack Gardner and a two-base hit by Sonny House in the third put the A's four runs behind the Bobcats. The Bobcats came back with two more runs, one in the fifth and one in the seventh, but fell just short of another run which would have tied the game and sent it into an extra inning. The A's piled up 6 runs in the fifth to the Bobcats' 1. Neither team scored in the sixth. The Bobcats' five hits were scat tered among five players. Leading hitter* for the A's, who accumulat ed 7 hits, were Gardner with two for three and House with two for four. The losing pitcher was William Cole and the winning pitcher House.

Support* Made jr.- I ' i' When Buying Boat, Keep Weather Bye on ' Friend ' By jot WtttG tn buying a boat It's best to mike reasonably certain that the ever present Helpful Friend and Amateur Expert is not a brother in-law of the seller. Whatever his other qualifica tions, Helpful Friend will have in stock a knowing look, a vocabu lary of such phrases as "seems a bit hogged," and a tool kit con sisting of a jackknife with a 3-inch blade. The latter he uses to probe the boat's various discolored spots which he pronounces "somewhat soft." You find however that those are the only soft spots in the setup. In particular, the price is firm. Despite that your friend stage whispers "buy it," and you begin to wonder whether he and the seller are absolute strangers after all. So you buy the scow called "Dix ie Belle." (If it had four wheels you'd call it a wreck.) Between you and the joys of the open sea, where automobiles never speed and telephones never ring, there exists only a weekend of relaxing preparatory chores. At least that's what the seller said. But now second thoughts arise, and bits of second hand informa tion drift your way. Not of course from your friend. He's washed his hands of the whole business and refuses to take any responsibility whatsoever. It develops that the topsides which are differentiated from the bottom side by a complicated color scheme, should be taken down to the wood. By whom? One guess. Also that five varieties of marine paint are required and that ma rine paint comes from a marine hardware store which employs in its calculations a silver scale and weights of gold. ^ Four weekends later you dab a final bit of seam compound into seams that gape wider and wider under a heartless sun and make ready to launch For that maneuver, your friend of yore one* refnarked, "Just rent a trailer." Now it comes out that trailers rent for $5 an hour at this time of year, when you can locate one that isn't busy. Also that at taching a trailer to your car raises in your mind vague doubts, which you hesitate to investigate further, about the validity of your insur ance policy. You discover it's easy to drive a trailer, once rented, to a boat, but that you can't make "Dixie Belle" take readily to the drink. Was this craft supposed to be only 14 feet long, or is it the Queen Mary in cognito? The solution is additional help. You get on the phone, start mak ing wild promises about fishing and sailing expeditions to come, and assemble at last a crew more innocent than yourself. Meantime j the rental timeclock has clicked ; up another 10 bucks. You don't bring along a bottle of champagne but somehow you expect at least a flourish of trum pets when the good sloop "Dixie Belle" slides into the water. The trouble with "Dixie Belle" is that she doesn't know when to stop sliding. That senm compound must have been made out of soft soap. Water spurts through a score of gaps and you find that you can see daylight through some of them. By this time the "Dixie Belle" has floated 20 feet from shore, with you in it. "She's sinking," you yell. "Better start bailing," remarks the most helpfu' of your crew. Just as you begin to wonder whether it's still de rigeur for a captain to go down with his ship, "Dixie Belle" hits bottom and you wade ashore. Why didn't some body tell you that seawater in May^ is still cold eaough refrigerate dims? Inside of a week, against all er pectations, the seams swell up and, since someone had the forethought to tie "Dixie Belle" to the dock while you wrung out your pants behind the seawall, 70a are in a position to luxuriate in your first sail. This is the moment you have waited for. Appealing once more to your original Helpful Friend, with whom you doubtless should let bygones be merely old grudges, you get a quick briefing on a few of the more essential terms like "t?ck," and "come about" and the differ ence between "jib" and "jibe." But out there all alone, 200 yards from shore this time instead of 20 feet, the wind whips over from starboard to port and catches you with your mainsail up when it probably should have been down. Why did the Coast Guard let you out in a gale like this? Helpful Friend certainly never mentioned whitecaps in his 10-minute indoc trination. And how the heck do you haul on a sheet (or did he say halyard) when the floor tips up like the roof of a church steeple? You remember it's been IS years since you got the Boy Scout merit badge in swimming. In spile of everything you can do, "Dixie Belle" refuses to cap size and, instead, noses up into the wind. As the deck levels off, you seize the glad moment to lower the sails, and start paddling back to land. Cheer up, sailor, the summer is not over. And ahead lie long, lazy hours and dozens of little In cidents you'll always remember? including three groundings, a cou ple of becalmlngs, and the time your best girl stepped on the rail as if "Dixie Belle" were a dock instead of a few planks and scraps of metal in an ever precarious and unpredictable state of equili brium. , More than half of the 182,000 I population of El Paso, Tex., speak I Spanish. > IVw* from 1E55Si^ Aug. 6 ?
