A good many people of Washington, D. C., have . discovered the vacation charms of Ocracoke Island. Several fam -1 ilies have made the trip by boat from Washington, D. C., to Nor folk, and thence by car or bus to Manteo and Hatteras. Those with 4-wheel-drive jeeps have made good use of the Hatteras Inlet ferry and continued down the beach or sandy road to Ocra coke Village; those without 4- wheel-drives have wisely chosen to park their cars at Hatteras and come down with Charlie Mc- Williams on the maiiboat and I mailtruck. In addition to bringing then jeeps, two of the Washington families have had sailboats on Silver Lake Harbor here at Ocra | coke, and a short stretch of moor ing space is appropriately dubbed “Washington Cove.” Staying al the Lambert Cottage the past two weeks were Mr. and Mrs. Charles Runyon an’d children, John, Nina, and Ann, with their guests Mr. and Mrs. Charles Wy man and daughter, Jane, of 'Great Barrington, Massachusetts : Another Washington family, Mr. | and Mrs. Wymberly Coerr and children, Susan and Stanton, spent the two weeks at Wahab Village Hotel. Two family groups from the National Capital, Mrs. Charles Owsley and children, Mary Bett, Keith, Rodney, and Scott were at Sound Front Inn; also there were Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Lewis of Washington, D. C. The advantages of bringing a 4-wheel-drive jeep to the Island are many-daily trips to the Ocean Beach, straight across from the Village, or to Ocracoke Inlet three miles South, or North six teen miles to Hatteras Inlet, with opportunities to see many of the famous wrecks—the Ghost Ship, the George A. Wells, en route, or to gather shells or climb the dunes, and the opportunity too to drive to points of interest in Ocracoke Village. ONE GOOD REASON Now, we know of at least one reason why there has been a con sistent ammunition shortage in Korea during the past several I months. According to Pentagon • records, last 'year’s steel strike I created a shortage of ammuni tion heavier than 50 caliber. The j Truman Administration occu pied a strange role in the drama i — that of trying to prosecute a war, while at the same time aid ing and abetting those who were making the prosecution of that war doubly difficult THE COASTLAND TIMES, MANTEO.
