Abstract:

North Carolina is one of the few states in the country to have its own statewide investigative department, the State Bureau of Investigation (S.B.I.). The Bureau was authorized by an act of the 1937 General Assembly, but it was not until March 1938 that funds became available to finance its operations. Governor Clyde Hoey appointed Frederick C. Handy the Bureau's director. Handy was an ex-FBI man who had charge of the FBI office covering North and South Carolina for seven years.

Abstract:

The production of the Lost Colony began at Manteo in 1937 and suspended in 1941 when the United States entered the war. With gasoline, tire, and outdoor lighting restrictions now lifted, people in Dare County are looking forward to starting up the famous pageant again next summer. It will be produced on a more elaborate scale than ever before.
