County attorney Huey Marshall told the Brunswick County Board of Commissioners Monday that rather than tamper with requirements of the zoning districts already in place, changing the definition of a ceme tery to include crematories and mausoleums will help solve the dilemma more quickly. Brunswick Funeral Service of Shallotte and Coble-Ward-Smith Funeral Service of Supply both want to operate crematories, but only Coble-Ward-Smith has proper ty within an HM zone. A zoning change that blocked construction of a pet crematory in a residential neighborhood at Town Creek four years ago has created the current problem which restricts human cre matories to HM zones. Brunswick Funeral Service wants to operate a crematory in an area that is zoned mostly commercial low-density and residential adjacent to its business on U. S. 17 west of Shallotte. Cemeteries are allowed as permitted uses in most of the coun ty’s zoning districts, including resi dential and C-LD zones. The plan will be forwarded for review to the Brunswick County Planning Board, which meets tonight (Wednesday). By definition, a cemetery would include a mausoleum, burial park and crematory or any combination of those, said Marshall. Commissioners indicated they like 3280 George II Hwy.

At a workshop last week, the plan ning board began drafting a new light manufacturing zone and dis cussed how crematories could be classified as such use. J Anybody with a line in shallow water is a red drum fisherman this time of year, so all should be interested in the new regulation which takes effect Thursday concerning these fish. The rule is: You can keep only one fish, and it must be between 18 and 27 inches long. This is a special change in state regulation (the limit was five; one could be over 27 inches) which several weeks ago shut down the commercial fishery for red drum until further notice. The object of both restrictions, of course, is to protect and renew the breeding stock, which according to our book are fish three years or older (usually 26 inches or greater). This is their spawning season, but drum can live for decades so allowing more fish to live should magnify their produc tivity immensely. me euimiieieiai suuiuuwn ui nu iuccu eunj»cquciiee, uui uic angling clamp-down calls for concern, for a great number of fishermen here spend their fall and winter looking for lunker drum in the surf, or trying for big pups in the rivers and creeks. The concerns should not be devastating, for any one fish over 18 inches can provide a good feed, and drum are eminently releasable. Gene Fuss taught us that several years ago when he was tagging and releasing drum on Bald Head, some over and over again. Of course, that same experience also taught us how dumb drum are. But we should never blame the fish for getting scarce. We visited with the captain and crew of the pew Division of Marine Fisheries patrol vessel at the Southport Marina last week, and found the boat quite impressive. Gray, businesslike in appearance, the 48-foot alu minum vessel is a replacement for the 39-foot (and much slower) Royal Shoals, and both in speed and bulk she should prove a far superior vessel. Her (the transom lettering says “N. C. Marine Patrol Morehead City”) skipper is Wayne Gray, who launched a 33-year Coast Guard career aboard the 95-footer here in the 1960s and who is now several years into his sec ond career at DMF. Sailing with the four-man crew for the day was Brunswick enforcement officer Donald Goins, who pronounced the new boat “a dream.” We spoke with Lt. Mike Davis at DMF on Tuesday about the new boat and he apologetically noted that the project was put out for bids twice, and the only taker was Sea Ark in Monticello, AR. Davis said he visited the factory and found that Sea Ark is widely known. Other boats in the making there were destined for (former Soviet) Georgia; a Middle Eastern shah, and the Colombian government. In other new-boat news, a replacement ferry is in the offing for the Southport-Fort Fisher run. The plan is to relieve the conventionally steered Gov. Daniel Russell with a vessel that has the improved maneuverability of the Southport. The Russell is to be shifted to duty where the demands on her handling are not so great. We understand that the replacement should come in about a year. Lobbies for naming undoubtedly are cranking up even now, but we’d like to suggest keeping the “Russell” here. North Carolina ferries have under gone name-change, if not name-transfer, before. 910-457-6463 or 1-800-350-7021 1111 Howe Street Southport, NC 28461 David S.
