tts lead In the Carteret roomy

place in the league with a slim
margin over Atlantic. Beaufort has
a record of five wins and no losses

Jerry's Fish Box
By Jerry Schanacher
These nights if you look out to
sea over at the beach you feel
like you're looking at a small city.
Shrimp boats, lit up like Christmas
trees, out night dragging. There
must be at least 35 of them. Can't
you just hear some one say. "Where
were you last night?" "Dragging
for shrimp, baby, so help me."
We have a reader in Manteo, Ay
cock Brown. Fine fellow because
he likes this part of the country
too.
Where does C?pt. Willard Lewis
get those fabulous fishermen or
maybe he just knows something
the rest of us don't. Two people,
Mr. and Mrs. William R. Reed of
Federalsburg, Md? caught 71 kings,
14 amberjacks and assorted other
fish. Now prices being what they
are, kings bring about 45 cents
per pound on the northern market,
these lucky people had $225 worth
of fish. I've got a picture to prove
this story.
Little Johnnie Roberts, eight, of
Raleigh went out on the Gannet
the proud catcher of four amber
jacks, himself. One of them looked
about twice as big as Johnnie.

Most of us around here are crazy
about boats? the magiest little fish

William Bates ' little shrimper,

aground on the beach and breaking

and she drifted into the breakers.
The Coast Guard made a line fast

and with the wind steadily increas

Iris Fulcher's new fishing pier

It's just a nice drive up there and
picturesque all the way.
