OCEAN CITY. Nd. August l.
With catches pointing to record mar
lin of the coast Of Ocean City the
fishing world has been giving more
attention to this popular resort. on
Ocean City are natural feeding
grounds for all kinds of fish and the
angler need have no fear of going
home without something to show for
his visit.
Never has blue fishing been so good
as now. Bigger catches have been
made the past two weeks than ever
before. 1t Is necessary TO 90 Is to
40 miles of shore. The shoals within
half an hours running time are
abundant with several varieties.
Fishing Is not the only thing to at
tract the vacationer. Amusements of
many kinds are offered. The board
walk has been lined with vacationists
the past few weeks. Some like to go
to the concessions and try their skill
with the skee balls, and other forms
OF games Of chance. Others like to
dance to the tune of popular orches-
tras. and be comfortable in the big
wide halls, built especially for such
amusement.
Badminton, beach tennis and vol
ley ball hold the center of attention
on the beaches. Soft ball is In evil
dence also. Bicycle riding, ever pop
ular, has taken on a new stimulus
and one may see the cyclists at all
hours.
The surf bather has been in his
glory for weeks, for the water has
been warm. Since the beach patrol
has been instituted no drownings
have occurred on any beach.

Cut, Credited.

NEW YORK, August 1.-The in
tense heat Of July, coupled with a
tendency everywhere to avoid peak
vacation crowds, is sharply dividing
and extending the normal vacation
periods, according to the Monthly
Survey Forecast on world travel ten
dencies just released by the Amer
ican Express Co. Notable among
the tendencies for August are the ex-
tended late bookings for short cruise
and rail transportation from those
who are not limited to time vacation
periods and can extend their outings
over Labor day.
From Maine to Alaska and from
Canada to Mexico, domestic travel is
setting a new high record for Sum-
mer vacation journeying. with coastal
cruises from both the Atlantic and
Pacific on the threshold of their best
mid and late season.
Douglas Malcolm, Of the Travel
Service, attributes the traffic, which
is reaching spectacular heights of in
crease, to a combination Of stream
lining and undermining OF equipment
and the new reduced rates. Since
fares were reduced June and with
the multiplying comforts of the new
