Sunset Beach is required to samp its water for bacteria twice ea< month, according to Town A Tmii&udiui nuiidte maiiill. February Martin submitted one sai pie for lab testing as required by tl N.C. Division of Health Services. But, said Martin, he never receivi thp vial in which to mail the secoi sample and therefore never took He also didn't notify town residen that the sample wasn't taken. The N.C. Drinking Water Act r quires owners/operators of wat supplies to notify customers writing when a sample isn't taken. The presence of coliform bacter in drinking water indicates that son contamination has occurred, acco ding to John McFadyen, an e vironmental eingeer with the di\ sion's Water Supply Branch. Whi failure to test doesn't mean the wati is contaminated, without reguh testing it is not possible to assure tl safety of the drinking water supply Honor Lists Announced The distinguished and honor r< lists for the final six weeks gradli period of the school year were a nounced last week by Norl Brunswick High School as follows: DiatlnxuUhed ()n Utr distinguished Ust are (Irani Cannae 1'hllip Wade l?ng and Jarnin Skipper, tfth grad Sabrrna Bryant, 10th grade; Christopher Steph Williams, |>ebrn Cntidlll and Sandra Jones, 11 grade. and Marty Gay, Wendy Williams, An Jacobs.

Yet, an acciden >? that occurs when towing a boat h " potentially very dangerous. It's surprising that these mishaps are nol ia more common. ik ^ Many boaters use inadequate d trailers and hitches for their boats or neglect the maintenance of these r, items. By using some common sense v and spending a few extra dollars ' boaters can safely trailer their vessels. , With this in mind, the following tips on safe trailcring are offered by the i. safety-program coordinator for the h Division of Enforcement hi the N.C. Wildlife Hesources Commission: Be sure the trailer meets all the legal safety requirements for use on public highways If you leave any questions, contact the N.C. DepartI ment of Motor Vehicles.

I to Those who do not wish to prosecute Br a rape case may file an anonymous eil report thorugh the Rape Task Force, or Reporting serves to better inform Spt police of how often rape occurs. A recent survey estimates that one " in every four women have been victims of rape, while a more recent estimate pushes the number to one in three. Crime experts, said Mrs. Shelton, estimated that 50 percent to 90 percent of all rapes are never reported to a law enforcement agency. At their June meeting, members of the county council heard from Minerva Glidden, a task force volunteer in New Hanover County, and from r Elena Peterson, Crisis Line coore dinator. n it Through Crisis line, in conjunction i. with the Rape Task Force, counselr ing is available 24-hours a day by it calling a toll-free number, e 1-800-672-2903, or a Wilmington , d number, 1-800-672-2903.
