Give It A Try
It won’t be long now until the
angler, while his hunting brethren
are busy afield, will be getting
ready to store his fishing gear for
the winter—everywhere but in the
South, that is. However, the wise
angler who gets enjoyment out of
the use of his tackle, doesn’t have
to “break down” for the winter un
less he prefers to do so.
Whether or not he realizes it,
there is a way to enjoy his fishing
tackle all through the winter and,
at the same time, perfect his tech
nique.
Join Casting Club
The way to do that is to join a
casting club somewhere in the
vicinity; but if there is no casting
club, that doesn’t bar the sport
we’re discussing.
If there is a casting club, our
angler may join it and then enjoy
the use of his casting or fly rod
equipment through the long months
of winter. These clubs, as a rule,
have an indoor area wherein to
cast. They use targets, or play
“skish,” which is the same sort of
game, wherein targets also are
used. The members gain a remark
able degree of accuracy, to say
nothing of the pleasure obtained by
“keeping their hand in” on fishing
gear, topics and forecasts.
And that accuracy garnered in
practice sessions will stand the
angler in good stead the next sea
son when he is required to do
some “pin-point" casting to get at
that “just right” spot under afi
overhanging branch or beside a
rock or log.
May Enter Competition
The angler who becomes fasci
nated with this indoor sport usually
moves into the tournament field
and in time will find himself cast
ing in competition as an individual
contender or as a member of his
club’s competitive team. And, if he
goes this far, a whole new field of
casting technique and interest is
opened up for him.
But right here we are concerned
with the average angler who just
hates to put his gear away, come
winter, and who would vastly ap
preciate the enjoyment he is now
missing if he would ally himself
with some casting club. But, as we
started to point out earlier, there
doesn’t have to be an organized
club in existence to provide this
winter sport.
If there is no such organization,
the angler usually may obtain per
mission to use some indoor area,
say the YMCA, a nearby armory,
a local auditorium, a gymnasium
—anyplace where there is head-
room and enough length for or
dinary accuracy casting.
The equipment? Your own, of
course. For, unless you plan to
enter the tournament-casting field,
you may get all the fun you want
out of the tackle you actually use
on stream or lake.
Cost Is Negligible
The cost is practically nothing,
inasmuch as casting weights may
be obtained for about 35 cents each
and two of these will keep an angler
in the practice-casting business for
a long while.
It is true, of course, that as one
becomes more proficient in this
pastime, there may result a great
er desire for higher-priced, ad
vanced tackle and the caster may
find himself shopping, or planning
to shop for the lightning-fast tour
nament-type reels and the longer,
lighter tournament rods.
But, that is a matter for the in
dividual and, as we have pointed
out, need not interfere with real
sport and enjoyment in general
practice-casting activities during
the winter. .
AAA
Fish for Mounting
It is preferred by most taxi
dermists to receive a fish un
skinned in order that they may
make a cast of the same. Very
often this is impossible. After
catching a fish you want mounted,
place it on a piece of paper and
run a pencil carefully around it,
making an accurate outline and
also the size and individual shape.
After making the outline and
notes, the fish is prepared as fol
lows: Cut open the side, not the
belly, preserving the perfect side.
Take off skin carefully—most skin
will peel off very easily. Fins
should be separated at the base
from the body with a sharp pair
of scissors or a knife. Scrape off
grease with a spoon. Skin should be
spread and rubbed down with salt
on the inner side only and let lay
until the next day. The following
day, roll it up in a piece of paper
and ship in a box or tin can with
air holes.

Take It Easy
This is a tip on taking oft that
plastic covering on the handle of
that new bait-casting or fly rod
which you’ll get this Christmas, or
perhaps next spring.
The pitch is to dampen the cov
ering before trying to remove it.
In that way you can avoid doing
what we did: chipping two pieces
of cork off the handle of a brand-
new fly rod when we tried to rip
the covering with the fingernails.
Just take It easy.

Comic books may soon be re
quired reading for children.
Psychologists and educators have
been contending for some time that
comic boks of the proper kind
could be used to further the emo

trouble, they have added, is that
such magazines would have to be

T HE very British James Mason
seems to have developed a
strong liking for anti-British screen
roles. His two latest for 29th Cen
tury-Fox certainly indicate it. In
“The Desert Fox” he gives a mag
nificent performance as the late
Field Marshal Rommel, one of Eng
land’s most unrelenting enemies
during World War II. And he has
just finished work in “5 Fingers”,
in which, as the highest paid spy
JAMES MASON
in history, he dies his prying at
the British Embassy in Istanbul,
for the Nazis. But his next film will
probably find him playing a
Frenchman; he’s pretty well set as
Inspector Javert in “Les Miser-
ables”.
Mason .has the support of an
outstanding cast In “The Des
ert Fox”, which was produced
by Nnnnally Johnson and di
rected by Henry Hathaway.
Jessica Tandy, Cedric Hard-
wicke. Lather Adler and Leo
Carroll are all excellent.
Marilyn Monroe will be starred
by Darryl Zanuck in “Night With
out Sleep”, playing a baby sitter
—which will be pretty easy, for
she was acting as a baby sitter
when she was discovered by Wil
liam Mayberry. She went to school
on the lot, did “Asphalt Jungle” at
MGM, whereupon her own studio
realized that she was really stellar
material.
NBC’s Ed Herlihy has been va
cationing in Bermuda with his wife
and children year after year. So
he’s finally bought a cottage there.
Maybe he was egged on after a
recent storm flooded the basement
of his home in a suburb of New
York. The basement is used as a
party and play room, and the house
hold formed a bucket brigade to
bail it out.

OES THE PRESIDENT really
believe that we are destined in
the near future to be engaged in a
full scale shooting war with Russia,
or are his numerous war scares
merely for the purpose of encourag
ing more and larger appropriations
and the levying of more and great
er taxes?
His actions In connection with
our preparations for war would
not indicate that he fears an
immediate conflict. We are cer
tainly not preparing for such an
eventuality.
He announced a year ago that
Russia had perfected an atom
bomb. On the basis of that state
ment congress authorized an air
fleet of 75 fighting groups including
a larger number of bomber groups.
The President did not then think
such an air force was needed, and
arbitrarily reduced the number to
62 groups, despite the verdict of the
congress and the air commission
which he had appointed.
Since then he has raised the fig
ures to 85 groups, but has not order
ed the planes or recruited the per
sonnel for such a force. We are told
that Russia has now an air force
of 50,000 fighting planes, and the
President said that Russia has Lie
atom bomb with which to destroy
our ground forces and to devastate
the towns and cities of our Euro
pean allies as well a* those of this
country.
To meet that force we have. In
cluding those of our European al-
especially designed to meet psy
chological theories and still be en
tertaining.
One of the country’s leading
comic book publishers, after a year
of intensive research, has begun
issuing a comic magazine based on
the recommendations of psycholo
gists and educators as to the “ideal’’
comics magazine for children in
the three-to-eight age bracket. He
is convinced that if his new publi
cation is a success, other comic
book publishers will recognize the
need for really constructive comic
magazines and follow his lead.
The publisher, Leverett Gleason,
expects the test to prove the
theories of authorities that the pow
erful influence of comics magazines
on children can be utilized in a con
structive way.
Gleason estimates that 80,000,000
comic > magazines are purchased
each month and that each| of
these has three readers.
Prominent educators and psy
chologists have agreed that comics
magazines can be used to em
phasize the moral and ethical teach
ings of parents. They have advo
cated comics magazines 4 s a
means of draining normal aggres
sions of children that might other
wise erupt into outright aggressive
acts. These authorities see comics
as a means of teaching a child how
to read, and the use of good gram
mar and a sense of artistic discrim
ination. And they have at the same
time complained that the widely
distributed comics magazines are
not accomplishing all these objec
tives.
“There is no reason why all of
these objectives cannot be achieved
in a comics magazine that is still
exciting enough to hold the young
reader’s interest,” Gleason said.
He quoted Josette Frank, educa
tional associate of the Child Study
Association:
“One must regret that comic mag
azines have, in aome respects,
missed their opportunities for giving
children more than they do.
“The comic magazine has a high
potential value not only because its
form is so acceptable to children blit
because it can be timely and con
temporary in a way books cannot.
Here, perhaps, more effectively
than elsewhere, we can find an
opportunity to give children for
ward looking attitudes, ideas and
ideals about the world they live
in.”
• • •
OBVIOUSLY, no desirable comic
book could portray sex, cruelty or
primitive violence, Gleason said.
But the findings showed that many
other factors were of equal or
greater importance.
Perfect grammar should be used
by the characters so that children
can learn through the example of
the heroes and heroines. Particu
lar attention should be devoted to
the art work which would be of a
quality comparable to that of the
best in children’s hard-cover books.
As with all comic books, these pic
tures, used as a guide to the mean
ing of the words, should help the
young child learn to read.
Six thousand schools already are
using comic books in connection
with the school curriculum, Glea
son reported. The issuance of comic
magazines of superior quality
might easily make them an in
strument all schools would want to
use to further the teaching of young
children, particularly as a means
of teaching them to learn to read
and to like to read.
lies, some 5,000 effective plenes,
which include some 50 or 60 capable
of attacking Russia. We are talking
of or planning for a fleet of from
50,000 to 75,000 war planes. But so
far it is only talk, none of them
have been ordered.
VP a have adequate facilities for
building such a force, but the job
cannot be done overnight. Should
Russia have the force she is credited
with having, and if she has atomic
bombs, as the President tells us she
has, without our having adequate air
protection for our airplane plants,
Russia could destroy those plane
plants, and there would be no pos
sibility of our meeting the Russian
bombers.
We are told we are building tanks,
guns, and other equipment for the
ground forces. We are recruiting, oy
draft methods, an army of 3,500,000
men, but such an army cannot hope
to alone meet the some 7,000,000
men of the Russian Red army. No
ground army we can muster, what
ever its size, can defeat Russia,
without an adequate air force to
support and protect it. Such an air
force is the first thing needed
should war come, and it n seeming
ly the last thing being provided.
Possibly those who are directing
the preparedness program are list
ening only to the top brass of the
army. They would think in terms of
ground troops and their equipment.
To win a war ground troops are
necessary but Eisenhower knows
that air power is equally needed.
Congress authorized and ap-
I ANE was .a member of a large
family. There were four boys and
three girls besides Jane. The moth
er was dead. The eight children
lived with their
father on a farm
on the edge of
Gransberry. Jane
was the eldest of
all the children. When their mother
died Jane assumed the responsibili
ties of’ the household. She was a
large girl, very plain and rather
dull looking.
I met her and the rest of the
family last summer when vacation
ing in Gransberry. She fascinated
me because she was so sturdy and
strong and uncomplaining. The long
er I knew the family the more I
came to realize how easy it was for
the others to lean on Jane. She did
two-thirds of the work.
It was interesting (and a litle an
noying) to watch. I soon came to
understand that Jane was the goat.
When one of them wanted a holiday
he or she would pretend to be sick.
Jane kept things going.
It seemed unfair to me. They
thought Jane was dull. They took
advantage of her.
The mere I talked to Jane the
more I began to wonder if she
were really dull. Yet sometimes
I become discouraged. She
seemed absolutely stnpid.
“Last year,” I said to her one day,
“I met a family named Burdon,
down south. There were six children
in the family, and poor Mrs. Burdon
had her hands full. She assumed
all the responsibility and did all
the work. Her children had never
been used to anything else, so it
never occurred to them to pitch in
and help. The more she gave, the
more they asked. It really wasn’t
the children’s fault. They never
propriated fnnds for the con
struction of radar listening
equipment for both the east and
the west coast that our planes
might have an advance warning
of Russian planes, should an at
tack come. The President has
ignored that legislation. It was
a lack of radar that primarily
was the cause of the Pearl Har
bor catastrophe.
A German contractor had delay
ed the completion cf the station,
and, because they did not know of
the approaching Jap planes, such
air force as we had in Hawaii were
caught on the ground and destroyed
along with the naval vessels that
could have gotten out of the harbor,
had their commanders known what
was coming.
But with that recent illustration
as a reminder, the President ^has
not taken steps to protect our east
and west coasts, with ell they would
need should war actually come.
It is such things that cause me to
think that the President is using bis
frequently repeated war scares' for
political purposes rather than be
cause of bis actual belief in any
threat of war. A full scale congres
sional investigation of our prepared
ness program and what is happening
might be well worth while. It is
too serious a matter merely for the
playing of politics.
If we are threatened with war, we
must prepare both for offense and
defense, but we must do it in a
practical way, not merely talk about
I it, and do first things first.
I came to realize how easy It
was for the others to lean on
Jane.
knew anything different. Eventually
the inevitable happened. Mrs. Bur
don wore herself out. One day she
was taken sick and died. She was
only 51 years old.” I shook my Lead.
“It was certainly a pity. Aftev she
had gone the children discovered
that they could get along very nice
ly by themselves. They found out
that they could do the things they
had heretofore always believed
themselves incapable of doing.”
I stopped talking and looked
steadily at Jane. But she only re
turned my look dully. “Wasn't it a
shame!” she said.
1 didn’t see Jane ag^in that sum
mer. Three days After my talk
with her I went home.
This summer I came to Grans
berry again. One day I drove past
the Whitefield farm and, acting on
impulse, drew up at the front gate.
Amelia, Jane’s oldest sister, was
sitting on the front porch.
“Is Jane in?” 1 asked.
Amelia-looked at me with wide
eyes. “Yes, but she’s not feeling
well. She's lying down this after
noon.”
“Lying down? Jane? May I see
her?”
Amelia went into the house. A
moment later she came to the door
and beckoned to me. I went into
the front room. The shades were
drawn'. It was quiet and cool. Jane
was lying on a couch. She smiled
up at me. She looked much prettier
than the last time I saw her.
“She’s been having attacks,”
. Amelia explained. “She can’t go
on for very long witbuut lying
down. We’ve been doing every
thing to make her well. We don’t
let her do much of the work.”
“I’m sure I’ll be all right^ very
soon,” Jane «aid.
Amelia’s eyes lighted. “Oh, I hope
so!”
I didn’t say much. I merely list
ened. Presently I understood that
Jane was spending a good deal of
time on the couch these days. Oc
casionally she was able to go out
driving in the evening with a young
man from town who had developed
an interest in her.
After a while I rose to go. "Take
care of yourself,” I told Jane.
“Don’t try to rush things. If you
started in too soon you might have
a setback.”
“I know,” she said. “How are the
Burdon children?”
“Who? Oh! They’re fine! Get
ting along nicely.”
She sighed. “I’m glad. My sisters
and brothers won’t let me. work
much. When I get strong again they
want to be sure I’ll stay strong.”
And Jane’s right eyelid fluttered
downward as she looked at me.
