• Clammers, Wormers Hope for Compromise to Avoid Controversial Bill

BRUNSWICK -- Despite angry words and a few veiled threats, worm diggers and clam harvesters will try to work together to find common ground and allow the two groups to harvest the same flats without interfering with each other's livelihood.
