  • Remember Mid-April 1970, America Was Angry
    EAaN rth Day TO Remember mid-April 1970, America was angry. The baby boomers had become cynical, mistrusting In parents, business, industry and Back in 1970, John Stenger government. This generation was especially disdainful of the so-called military-indus - and a band of students came to trial complex that President Dwight Eisenhower had warned about. The Vietnam War dragged on, filling the defense of Cape Henlopen’s the 6 o’clock news with death and destruction, and no end was in sight. The previous month, the Army had imperiled dunes charged 14 officers with suppressing the truth about the horrific My Lai massacre in Vietnam, where as many as 500 essentially unarmed civilians had been murdered by U.S. troops. The hopeful Apollo 13 moon mission had suffered an oxygen tank explosion a few days before, forcing its hasty retreat to Earth. The Cold War with the communist USSR was tense and dispiriting, and Paul McCartney had just announced the breakup of the Beatles. To many Americans, the future seemed dismal and hundreds of thousands had taken to the streets and college cam - puses to protest the nation’s various problems. Among those concerns was the environment. Decades of hellbent-for-leather industrial develop - ment with little regard for the land, oceans and air was taking an ever-greater toll. To a growing number of people, this threat trumped all others: If you can’t breathe the air, can’t eat the food, and can’t drink the water, little else mattered. Scientists and other con - cerned individuals were beginning to sound the alarm, and people were beginning to listen.

  • Inland Bays Journal
    FALL | WINTER 2013 Inland Bays Journal Fall Brings an Abundance of Riches in What’s Inside Waterfowl to our Inland Bays By Matthew DiBona, Wildlife Biologist, DNREC Division of Fish and Wildlife Not being a native son of Delaware, I feel the need to point out what most of you (natives or not) already know: Delaware has an embarrassment of riches when it comes to waterfowl. Passage of Shellfish The diversity of habitats, the amount of protected lands open to waterfowl Aquaculture Legislation in Delaware, see page 3. viewing and hunting, the sheer number of ducks and geese found in Delaware during migration and wintering months is astounding. As a wildlife biologist, one of the more enjoyable aspects of my job is flying aerial surveys for waterfowl. Seeing the abundance and distribution of waterfowl along the bays change as the fall progresses is really interesting. Early migrants such as green-winged teal and northern pintail are found in large numbers in October and November, but gradually give way to late season migrants such as mallards, black ducks, and Canada geese. The Gift of Place, see page 4–5. Spending eight hours a day in a small airplane is not as exciting as it sounds. But as I work my way south towards the Inland Bays I always perk up a little bit because I’m always treated to something a little different than the average fare. The mix of saltmarsh, intertidal flats and open water supports a variety of waterfowl not seen in the rest of the state. Sure you can see your pintails, black (continued on page 6) Return of the Eelgrass?, see page 7.

  • Joshua Fishers Chart of Delaware Bay and River"**
    Joshua Fishers Chart of Delaware Bay and River"** HOUGH it appears upon the ordinary map as a broad and unimpeded waterway, the body of water known as Delaware TBay and River presents, from Atlantic Ocean to the Port of Philadelphia, difficult problems of seamanship and pilotage. Its "Shoals & dangers," to be successfully avoided, require special local knowledge. The United States Coast Tifot,1 citing five charts, devotes forty-five pages to sailing directions for this body of water measuring 116 miles in length from its entrance between Cape May and Cape Henlopen to Trenton, the head of navigation on the River. It is not known what charts were used to lessen the dangers of this navigation by the inhabitants of New Sweden, the first permanent European residents of the Delaware Basin. It may be that the Dutch explorers already had roughly charted the area, so that by the time the Swedes were established, the ships which came to them possessed usable manuscript charts.2 But neither in the printed maps of the time nor in such manuscript productions as are known is there evidence that a chart of real value or consequence developed from * Hazel Shields Garrison, in The Pennsylvania Magazine of History and Biography (PMHB)y LIX (1935), 181-182, discussed the Fisher Chart and asked for further information concerning it. This article is in some measure a response to that inquiry. "Maritime History of Phila- delphia," by Marion V. Brewington, PMHB, LXIII (1939), 93-117, has proven suggestive in several particulars of my investigation, and definite information was taken from "Cartography of Pennsylvania before 1800," by Hazel Shields Garrison, PMHB, LIX (1935), 255-283.
