Vessel Resumes
Investigations
Albatross Receives Minor
? Propellor Repairs at
Norfolk Tuesday
The Albatross, fishery research
vessel, is on the job again today
following a short trip to Norfolk
where her variable pitch propeMor
received minor repairs.
The Albatross returned to More
head City Sunday night in hopes
that the propellor could be repair
ed here. The propellor stuck at
full speed and made trawling, an
essential part of the ship's work,
impossible.
Ways here, however, were not
large enuogh, so the Afbatross left
Monday morning for Norfolk.
W. A. Ellison, Jr., director of
the Institute of Fisheries Research,
said the time lost bccause of the
trouble amounted only to 50 hours.
The ship was operating two days
ahead of schdule when the pro
peHor stuck.
One of the officers aboard the
Albatross reported when the ship
was first in port here that it is
one of only three ships in the
country outfitted with a variable
! pitch propellor. They are common
on military and commercial air
planes, but are seldom used on
ships.
The Albatross resumed opera
tions Wednesday midnight north
of Cape Hatteras.
Racing Season Opens Tonight
Farm Conditions.
In County Good,
Agent Reports
The general condition of Carteret
county's crops is good with one
crop already harvested and another
nearly harvested. County Agent R.
M. Williams reports.
The price of cabbage this year
was fairly good. Over 95 per cent
of the pootato crop has been sold
with final digging and grading go
ing on now. a
Tobacco plants have been set
out and the corn crop is progress
ing nicely, Mr. Williams said.
Damage from the heavy rains
early this week is still uncertain
but a certain amount of harm was
done. Some farmers found gullies
in their watermelon patches and
it is reported that several small
bridges east of Beaufort were
washed out.
Mr. Williams stated that some
pasture growers in the county have
fallen down ou their jobs in re
cent weeks. He said weeds made
headway in many excellent pas
tures.
In order to correct this con
dition, the county agent declared
a mower should be run over the
pasture two or three times during
the summer growing season with
the cutter bar raised just above
the level of the pasture growth.
He Mid that if the weeds are
not mowed they will greatly stunt
pasture growing capacity.

three miles west of Morehead City
will open for its second season.

country that paid off for its inves
tors the first year of operation.

up nightly. The races were run
Monday through Saturday just as
they will be this year.
The Moreheaa City track is the
| newest between Maine and Florida
and it is the only place in th? state
of North Carolina where legal gam
bling takes place. This was made
possible by an act of the 1939 Leg
islature which authorized pari-mu
tuel betting in Carteret county.
The act simply stayed on the
books in the rush of the war years
but soon after the war work was
begun on organizing the Carolina
Racing association.
Construction of the track started
early last March. . Following ex
tensive land clearing operations
and construction work, it officially
opened June 30. It had a most suc
cessful season and closed Labor
Day with one of its largest crowds
in attendance.

leigh. in the campaign for pas

Rotarians Hear
Safety Talk
State Highway Patrolman G. C.
Langston of New Bern made a
timely speeeh on highway safety
to Beaufort Rotarians at their meet
ing Tuesday night at the Inlet Inn
Patrolman Langston was intro
duced by Cpl. Vernon Spruill who I
is in charge of patrol activities I
in Carteret county.
The speaker said that one cause j
of highway accidents was the fail- !
ure of any program to teach the .
public rules governing highway
safety and operation of motor ve
hicles. He stated that the average
person knows very little about the
operation of their car, they know
the manual opentfions of driving
the car but they know 'hardly any
thing about the mechanical princi
pals.
Mr. Langfton declined that more
accidents are caused by human er
rors than by mechanical errors. Ho
addedd that the traffic rules and
regulations, if obeyed, would reduce
greatly the present per centage of
collisions.
The patrolman concluded by say
ing that the effect of alcohol on a
driver, or pedestrian, was far nlore
terrific than the drinker thought.
Some people seem to think that
their personal drinking is nobody
else's business, he said once they
enter upon a public highway it is
the business of all who come in con
tact with him.
Patrolman Langsfon recited the
following ttiort poem to illustrate
his point:
"The guy who drives
When he's been drinking
Depends on you
To do his thinking."
Dr. N. T. Ennett presided at the
meeting in the abicnce of Rotary
president B. J. May Frank Kxum
and A. B. Roberts of Morehead City
were guest* for the evening.

A proposed plan to erect a new
forest look-out tower in Carteret
county was announced today by
District Forester R. C. Winkworth
of the N. C. Department of Conser
vation and Development, divisio i
of forestry. The new tower would
help to protect the large area be
tween Core sound and Pamlico
sound which is not at present cov
ered by look-out detection.
Similar to "the new steel"" tower
recently completed on the Hofman
forest, near Deppe in Onslow coun
ty, the proposed structure would
be 120 feet high and of the latest
design in forest fire towers. Al
though the?.project is being sup
ported by several county leaders
it is temporarily stalled by lack of
available funds. Total cost of pur
chase and erection is estimated at
about $4,000.00. the county's share
of which would be $1,200, with the
balance appropriated from state
and federal funds, Mr. Winkworth
stated.
E. M. Foreman, Carteret county
forest warden, in emphasizing the
need for the tower, points out that
the key to successful forest fire
control lies in detecting fires whei
they are small and easily suppress
ed. He maintains that in a vast
inaccessible area, like the eastern
half of this county, it is imperative
that crews attack a fire before it
has time to grow into dangerous
proportions.
According to County Warden
Foreman, past experience has
shown that existing detection me
thods are ineffective and large
areas have burned needlessly due
to the fact that fires were dis
covered too late. These burned
areas, he explairveds, are set back
several years and contrast sharply
with similar areas on which fire
has been kept out and young pine
growth is making good progress
toward raising the value of the
land.
Foresters of the Department of
Conservation and Development
claim that the exclusion of fire is
the most essential step in reclaim
?in* thousands of aem of land In
this county which are now Iving in
waste and producing no income to
I he owner and consequently con
tributing nothing to the wealth ol
the community.
Hope was expressed that prcscht
fiscal difficulties may be overcome
in time to complete erection ot
the tower before the next spring
fire season.

Dee Gee's Shop Celebrates
15th Anniversary Tomorrow #
The 15th anniversary of one of
Morehead City's and eastern Ca
rolina's best-known shops will be
celebrated tomorrow when Dee
Gee's Gift shop on South 8th street
will throw open its doors to all its
old and new customers for a grand
celebration.
The shop has been recently re
modeled into much larger quarters
than it formerly occupied with a
far fancier interior. One side of
the shop is paneled in knotty pine
with the other finished in an ocean
blue. Ship hawsers are used for
molding around the wall. Illumi
nation is provided by ships' lamps
which carry out the marine motif
that has made Dee Gee's famous.
Souvenirs will be given away all
day tomorrow and refreshments
will be served in the afternoon.
At 4 p.m. valuable prizes will be
given to certain visitors who have
registered at the shop during the
past several weeks. The gifts con
sist of a pair of lamps, a pair of
pictures, a set of dinnerware, and
other prizes.
D. G. Bell, owner of the gift
shop, was graduated from high
school in the middle of the depres
sion, 1934. Jobs were scarcer than
hen's teeth then and he found that
either he had to go to work for
himself or not go to work at all.
He borrowed $15 and started out
with a small paint and photograph
shop. Later he added a line of
Sifts and began doing paint de
corations on certain novelty items.
Mr. Bell saw the need for a gift
shop in this area and also saw
how high regular gift shop prices
were. He decided to open a gift
shop with department store prices
and has used that policy ever
since. This year the store is open
ing in larger quarters but instead
of adding new lines of gifts it has
enlarged and improved its regular
lines.
In addition to Mr. Bell, Miss Lu
cille Piner works in the shop aa
his assistant, Thurlow Whealton
as picture framer, and Miss Gwen
dolyn Willis as cleik.
