PLANS TO ABOLISH
PERENNIAL VIRGINIA
AUTO TAGS IN N. C.
The doittinued use of Virginia
automobile tags on trucks and cars
owned and driven by residents in
North Carolina is going to be a
costly practice in future to several
people in the Coastland, according
to High Patrolman Arthur F.
Fields who has orders to crack
down on this time honored custom
of local residents.
“I don’t like to cause anybody
any more' trouble than necessary,”
Mr. Fields said, “but this custom
has- to be changed. Many com
plaints have gone to the depart
ment from people who do pay for
to help build highways and
run ferries in this state, and who
do no.t like seeing their neighbors
go free year after year.
There 'are various ways in
which car operators have been
evading the buying of N. C. license
plhies, Sometimes a used car is
bought with Virginia tags, and in
the more, remote communities may
beoperated several years without
current license of any kind: Often
the application for a new title is
not filed, and using the address of
a relative in Norfolk, or other
Virginia city, the owner is able to
buy Virginia tags for several
years. In this manner he beats the
state of North Carolina out of the
sales tax due on the transfer of
the car.
Usually these are the guys who
drive miles out of the way to get
cheap gas, who always belliaches
about paying a gas tax in N. C.
and who kicks loudest about roads
.and road conditions.
FOUR ANGLERS CATCH 24
CHANNEL BASS LAST WEEK
Nags Head.—Twenty four chan
nel bass, the largest 51 pounds
and none weighing less than 35
pound were landed by four anglers
on Saturday, the best catch re
ported during the past week. They
were landed by Bernard Cook, F.
C. Noel and E. S. Manetta of i
Roanoke, Va., and E. C. Davis of
Richmond, while trolling from
Capt. Willie Etheridge’s cruiser
the “Chee Chee.”
Several other excellent catches
of channel bass were made during
the week by anglers trolling from
charter boats operating in Oregon
Inlet. Five Virginia anglers, H. R.
Brockton, Norfolk, R. G. Jennings,
Fredericksburg, R. L. Wright, W.
G. Harris and C. W. Wright of
Richmond, trolling from Capt.
Ommie Tillett’s cruiser “Jerry,
Jr.,” accounted for 14 of the cop
per beauties, the largest landed by
Garris, a 51 pounder.
While the channel bass now be
ing caught in Oregon and Hat
teras Inlets by anglers fishing
from boats are running large and
in large schools, the to date rec
ord fish was the 60 pounder land
ed by Forrest Dunstan of Eliza
beth City at Oregon Inlet during
early April and the 54-pounder
landed by Mrs. Tom Little of Vir
ginia Beach at Hatteras Inlet the
following week.
While all days are not suitable
for trolling after these big husgy
fighters in the inlets, it is con
ceded that when weather is favor
able the outlook is excellent for
catching them in Oregon and Hat
teras Inlets for the next several
weeks.
