BLACKER THE FISH—BETTER THE DAY FOR FISHING
On the above Fisherman's Calendar the beat days fer fishing are indicated by a solid blaok fish. days net so good by a pwtially black
fish, and poor daya for fishing by a white fish. This calendar is scientifically compiled, oainf the moon, the s«ne, and every known factor
that hn a bearing on fishing m used by the “Old Timer,” as well aa the modern Sportsman. Use discretion in selecting your fishing days—
do not go whenU is too windy, tides against yon, or the waters muddy—but select comparatively calm days when the fish shows solid
black and you will find this calendar tobe surprisingly accurate for both inland and deep aea fiahlng, and lor any waters in or surround
ing the United States and Canada. . . rv „ __ _ _ . „ _

Palace Theatre, Mon. and Tues-,
April 4 and sth.
A comedy of love and music in
romantic Waikiki brings Bing Cros
by, Bob Burns, Martha Raye, and
Shirley Ross to the screen of the
Palace Theatre next Monday in
“Waikiki Wedding.”
The story deals with the romance
of a contest winner, played by Miss
Ross, who wins a trip to Waikiki
with a pineapple recipe. Miss Ross
dosen’t like Waikiki and is about to
walk out on the whole business when
Crosby, who is press agent for the
pineapple concern and wftno con
ceived the contest as a publicity
“Jtunt, is prevailed upon to take
Miss Ross in hand.
He proceeds to make Waikiki ro
mantic and glamorous for Miss
Ross. So much so that he falls un
der the spell himself. The climax
comes when reality clashes with
fantasy and Bing has to produce a
Waikiki which doesn’t exist. Being
a resourceful press agent, he pro
duces it.
Vocal and instrumental music for
“Waikiki Wedding” was written by
Robin and Rainger, creators of more
than a dozen musical pictures, and
there are several solos by Crosby
and Miss Raye, creating something
of a sweet versus swing situation.
Wakiki Wedding” is from a story
by Frank Butler and Don Hartman.

TOBACCO OUTLOOK
IS NOT SO GLOOMY
State Agriculture Department
Experts ..Looking For 22-
Cent Average
Raleigh, March 31. —AP—The di
vision of markets of the state de
partment of agriculture examined
the 1937 tobacco crop prospects to
day and found the outlook “not so
gloomy as has been painted.”
If yields are approximately aver
age and if a predicted “moderate
increase” in demand materializes,
farmers should receive approxi
mately 22 cents a pound for tobacco
—the average price which pre
vailed last year—experts said.
Tobacco annually is worth ap
proximately $1,000,000,000 to North
Carolina farmers.
Randal B. Etheridge, head of the
markets division, said the “inten
tions to plant report” revealed that
flue-cured tobacco acreage this
year would be approximately 968,-
000 acres, which represents alO
percent increase over last year’s
harvested acreage, but is slightly
lower than the 1928-32 average.
“Naturally, the yield this year
will affect the price,” Etheridge
added. “But farmers should be
hopeful in view of the fact that the
bureau of agricultural economics
has predicted that domestic con
sumption is expected to continue
its upward trend and some instances
in European demand is believed
likely.
“Assuming the predicted increase
in demand is realized, it is natural
to expect little change in the aver
age price paid for tobacco in 1936,”
he said. “But if yields are ma
terially above the average, there
would be a production in excess of
expected requirements, which

would probably result in corre
spondingly lower prices.”
Blue mold tobacco disease may
affect the North Carolina crop this
year, he explained, adding that the
extent of the disease had not been
accurately determined.
