ANGLERS START
 LICENSE RUSH
Many Believed Trout Sea son Opened Next Week,
 But Learn Error

Although Waterbury weather swerved back to normal after two hot days of mid-seventies' tempera- lures, today saw the start of sea- sonal rush for fishing licenses at the office of Town Clerk Mary C.. Kilmartin. Many of the applicants were of the opinion that the trout season opened next week.
 But the Connecticut fish and game laws booklet, revised to July 2, last year, specifies fishing for trout, other than lake trout, open season, April 18th to July 18th in- elusive. Legal length, inches. Limit 10 pounds in any one day or not more than 15 trout. Sale. of, pro- hibited."
 Which is enough about brook trout, what with the season still three weeks away and the weather just noW-"ideal."
 AS to lake trout, April 18th to August 3lst, inclusive, legal length, 10 inches; pickerel and Wall-eyed pike, April 18th to Feb. 9th, legal length 12 inches; alewives, March 1 to May 31; black bass, July 1st to Oct. 31st, legal length, 10 inches; perch, yellow and white, April 18th to Feb. 9th, legal length, inches.
 Seems the season for this sort of statistical summary of what the well-prepared angler will have in the form of visions about the "big ones." But about the fees for i- censes: Resident citizen, $3.35; non- residents and aliens (Connecticut), :, $5.35.
 Of course, if you are resident or lineal descendent of a resident you may fish in waters on land own- cd or leased by yourself, provided you are actually domiciled there. Also, if you want to construct a dam a permit is required. And if you want to drain, the board must be notified. Explosives are prohibit ed to use, as is poison. Nor can you use a spear for your fishing, except for eels, suckers or carp in flowing streams. Keep out of reservoirs, too, unless you have written permission

CITY'S SALES TAX
 UPHELD BY COURT

Pittsburgh, March 24.-CUP)-The Pennsylvania supreme court yester- day upheld the constitutionality of Philadelphia city's 3 per cent sales tax enacted by city council six weeks ago over the veto of Mayor s. Davis Wilson.
 Chief Justice John w. Kephart said the court could find no founda- tion for objections to the sales tax. He read brief order from the bench stating that the courts reasons for upholding the law would be set forth in an opinion to be written later by Justice William B. Linn.
 Opponents of the tax levy had at- tackled it's constitutionality on the grounds that the city could not im- pose tax on a business already taxed by the state.
 The court however followed the arguments of the laws proponents who contended the tax was legal be- cause it was on the buyer and not on the vendor.

GUIDE MARKERS
 AID MOTORISTS
Principal Routes Being Properly Designated at
 Various Intersections

The marking of highway routes through Waterbury will be con- pleted within a week or two. It will be the first time that highways leading to and from the city have been plainly marked.
 The work was begun this week by employees of the State Traffic Com mission, at the request of Police Superintendent William J. Roach. Metal standards have been erected on all state highways going through the city, and route numbers and directional information are being placed on them daily.
 The new markings will eliminate much of the confusion to which wis., iting motorists were subject, due to the lack of sufficient such signs. Ar rows show the way in which the various highways go, and the route numbers are listed at regular dis tances, so that motorists can be sure that they have not lost their way.
 Thus far the metal standards to hold the markers have been erected all along East Main street, West Main street, Meriden road, South Main street and other thorough fares,
