into the station and asked to buy
a pack of gum. After making the
sale and opening the cash register
drawer to ring it up. the station
operator said the boy wheeled
around facing him with a pistol
in his hand.
Flowers reported that he closed
the cash register and pretended to
be upset by the event in an effort
to stall off the intruder. He said
that after about three minutes the
boy became frightened by outside
traffic and backed to the door, ran
?cross the drive leading to the
station and got into an old model
coupe car which had no license
plates or rear tail light.

was no one else in the station'
when the boy, who he described
as being well dressed and nice look
ing. entered. He also said that the

officer Morris Parker were parked
in a patrol car at Five Points when
they received a call concerning the
"stickup" and that just as they
started to pull away from the curb
to go to investigate they saw a
car filling the description going
toward Five Points from up Queen
street in the direction of Pollock
street.
Police Follow Car
Robinson said that he and Park
er followed the car and found the
boy parked at McCotter's service
station on George street when they
apprehended him and took him
back to Flowers' station where Mr.
Flowers identified Feagle as being
the boy who held him up.

the incident is a case of mistaken
identity, that there Is discrepancy
in the time element and that his
brother-in-law was at home with
the family at the time the hold-up

Livestock Suffer
From Screw Worm
Screw worms recently made
their appearance on a number of I
Carteret county livestock (arms, I
reports R. M. Williams, county
farm agent.
Any farm animal receiving a j
fresh cut or abrasion of the skin
is subject to an attack by the
screw worm fly. Since the screw j
worm feeds on live flesh of the
animal, the most prevalent symp
tom of an infection is blood es
caping from a wound of the skin.
There are many ways in which
farm animals can receiv* wounds,
therefore Mr. Williams recom
mends frequent and close inspec
tions should be made especially
during warm weather. Once this
parastic insect begins its destruc
tive work in a fresh cut or wound,
the animal will die, if the infection
is not checked in a short time.
One of the most effective control
measures for screw worms is to
apply a treatment known as "Smear
82", the county agent said.

New State Boat
Ed Route Here
Capt. John Nelson, commercial
fisheries commissioner, Announ
ced this week that the state's ncw
ly-purchased 110-foot submarine
chaser is being towed here from
New Orleans and will arrive at
Morehcad City the latter part of
this week or the early part of next.
After cleaning and overhauling
she will be ready to go into opera
tion. replacing the llatteras. It
is believed that the Hattcras will
be used in some other phase of
state work instead of patrol. A
name for the new boat has not
yet been chosen.
Captain Nelson reported that'
the new marine radio-telephone
system on the state boats went into
operation about a month ago. It
is hoped, however, that a private
wave length will be obtained in the
near future so that interference
from fishing boats and other sour
ces will be avoided.
The head of the commercial fish
eries division commented that
shrimping is "pretty good" with
the delicacy bringing from 18 to
20 cents a pound (heads on).

CIO Organizer
Lists Charges
Against Factory
John R. Sullivan, representative
t>f the Amalgamated Clothing
Workers, CIO, the union that is
attempting to be recognized as bar
gaining agent for employees at the
Morehead City Garment co., today
listed charges the union has filed {
against management at the shirt
factory.
He said the principal charge was
"coercion, intimidation, and res
traint of employees in the exercise
of their right to form and join a
union." Mr. Sullivan said these
charges are permissible under Sec
tion 8, sub-section 3, of the Taft
Hartley Act.
Other charges filed state that
four persons were discharged and
employ was refused to one person
for union activity. He said that if
the union was successful in making
the charges stick, the shirt factory
would be forced to reinstate the
discharged workers with full back
pay and to employ the worker who
was refused employment with back
pay to be paid to her from the '
time she applied for a job.
Additional charges against man
agement at the plant will be filed
SBprtly, the union representative
said. He said a hearing* on all
charges in the case probably would
be heard soon.
Jaycees to Stage

Rehearsals are in full sway for
the Beaufort Jaycec stage show,
director Tressa Royal reported to

cessful production already visible.

for the show, a Hollywood type re
view, and rehearsals are held at
Beaufort school where the show
will be given Friday night, Nov. ;
18.

where Graydon Paul acts as the
master of ceremonies. There will
be skits, song and dance acts and
other forms of entertainment in

Hopes for Marine
Radio-Telephone
Station Grow Dim
Although representatives of the
Southern Bell Telephone company
and Carolina Telephone company
were very polite about it, their
answer to the request for a marine
radio-telephone station in Carteret
county has been handed down and
it's in the negative.
These representatives conferred
early this week in Beaufort with
members of the Carteret county
marine radio-telephone committee
headed by George Eastman, Beau
fort. The committee plans now to
make other efforts to obtain better
radio-telephone service here which
means further and direct contact
with the Federal Communications
commission, it was stated.
New Installation
The telephone company men
pointed out that recent completion
of a high intensity automatic re
ceivpr installation at Fort Fisher
near Wilmington had greatly im- !
proved service in this area to any i
boatman who obtains a special j
crystal on the Charleston wave I
length.
Application for this service
should be made at the local offices
of the Carolina Telephone and
Telegraph company where rates
may be obtained also. Sets should
deliver five degrees of wattage in
tensity, telephone engineers speci
fy
Difficulties Evident
It was pointed out at the recent
meeting, however, that many pre
sent boat owners could not, in
crease power due to boat size 'and
battery capacity. Also, unless
weather conditions are favorable,
it is difficult, if not impossible,
for boats in Core and Pamlico
sounds to contact stations south of
here.
Further information on the ma
rine radio telephone project can be
obtained from the following men
who attended the meeting: Mr.
Eastman, Joe Devonchik, Dan
Walker, all of Beaufort; George
Arlington, secretary of the New
Bern chamber of commerce, H. F.
Davis, New Bern; Charles N. Ben
nett, L. A. Daniels, Morehead City;
J. S. Bonner, Ben Branch, and E.

Mayor Dill Speaks
To Beaufort Club
Mayor George W. Dill, Jr., pres
ident of the Morehcad City Rot
ary club, addressed the Beaufort
Rotarinns on club service and what
it means at their Tuesday night
meeting in the Inlet Inn dining
room.
In stating that the philosophy of
Rotary is akin to the principles
of the churches, Mayor Dill said
that if good will was practiced be
tween the different members of in
dividual clubs and expanded on
a worldwide basis, there would be
good fellowship the world over.
The speaker revealed that in ad
dition to teaching business ethics
and community service, the club
should make as a main objective
the better understanding among
nations themselves.
Numa Eure, chairman of the
Rotary membership committee
spoke in behalf of the membership
program and urged each member to 1
give his support to it. President
Thomas Gnnett announced that dis
