The North Carolina State Board of Conservation and Development postponed action until October on criticism of Tar Heel oyster programs. The Commercial Fisheries Advisory Board was told to study the North Carolina Fisheries Association recommendations and report at the fall Asheville meeting October 26 to 28. The board also weighed coastal development, a Philadelphia industry-hunting trip, a potential State Waterways Commission, and a mineral inventory study request from North Carolina State College School of Engineering, which was denied for now.
