Abstract:
The State Travel and Promotion Division is the official record-keeper for North Carolina's game fish catches. The division requests that it be notified when a caught fish might be a state record. Records are kept in two categories -– freshwater and saltwater. Arrington provides lists from both categories, giving the species, weight, location caught, lure or bait, date of catch, and the name of the angler.

Abstract:
Arrington discusses the history of falconry, one of the oldest sports which employs animals for sporting purposes. While falconry is still practiced in many places, its popularity has diminished. Few people have the time it takes to capture, tame, train, and hunt falcons. North Carolina games laws do not permit the taking of game birds or protected birds by means other than those listed in the hunting regulations. While falcons can be used within the state, they can be legally used only on unprotected species.

Abstract:
A recently completed boating survey shows that although the total number of boating accidents in the state was up slightly in 1961, the number of accidents occurring while the operators were fishing was reduced from 21 percent to 2 percent. This marked reduction may reflect a growing awareness that as the waterways become more crowded, more attention must be given to water safety. Arrington discusses when and where boating accidents happened in 1961; what the boat operators were doing and their age and experience; causes of the accidents; and what can be done to improve safety.
