The tarpon were said to be feeding on small mullets which were swimming near the shore. It was interesting news to many local anglers who got out their heaviest tackle on the week end and went after the tarpon. N- catches were reported. Ed Hancock who was among those fishing for the silver beauties with rod and reel said that he saw two or three break ing water off shore but they did not come within casting distance. CAPT. HARRY GILBERT of the fishing cruiser Pal of Miami sug gested that anglers use small mullet as a bait for the tarpon. This type is used extensively down in Florida where anglers by the thousands gr each year to try and catch a silver tarpon.

A, Boy Scouts and N Y A Will Collect Garments Interested citizens are to be giv- en an opportunity to help the needy this winter by cooperating with the Welfare Department, Parent Teach er Associations, Boy Scouts and Na tional Youth Administration. The plan is to have the Scout Troop oi Morehead City of which Dr. Eure is Scoutmaster and the Beaufort Troop headed by Mr. Carlton collect used but serviceable garments from citi zens of the two communities on a date to be announced later. The N.Y.A. will repair and renovate these garments where necessary after which they will be turned over to a committee from each of the P.T.As for distribution as needed.
