Of much interest to society in the
city and throughout the state was
the wedding of Miss Sadie Charles
Elmore, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
John Archer Gilmore, of this city,
and Union Lee Spence, Jr., of Ra-
leigh, son of Mr.. and Mrs. Union
Lee Spence, Sr., of Cathage, which
took place last evening at $50
| o'clock at the Church of the Coven-
ant, before a large gathering Of So
ciety.
The vows we're spoken before DR..
J. Harry Whitmore, pastor of the
church.
Miss Julia Post played a beauti-
full program of nuptial music While
the guests assembled and during
the ceremony.
The church was lovely with it's
decorations of palms, cybodium
ferns, candles and Easter lilies and
across the choir loft myriad candles
burned. The family pews were
marked with white satin.
Miss Elmore was attended by
Miss Carol Slocum as maid of
honor, and bridesmaids were Miss
Catherine Waite, of Raleigh, Miss
Mary Worthy Spence, of Carthage,
sister of the bridegroom, Miss Mar
caret Darst, and Miss Mary Ella
| Williamson, of Asheville, cousin of
the bride. Flower girls were Astrid
Parmele. and Ingrid Parmele, cou-
sins of the bride.
Miss Slocum was lovely in a gown
of opal pink chiffon, which was
made with a shirred basque and a
very full skirt, the skirt ending in
a slight train in the back, and she
wore an arrangement of opal pink
roses entwined in her hair. She
carried a beautiful bouquet Of Bet
ter Times roses tied with matching
satin.
All of the bridesmaids wore frocks
made on the same style as that of
the maid of honor's only in forget
me-not blue chiffon and wore ar
rangements of opal pink roses in
the hair, and carried lovely bou-
quets of Better Times roses with
matching ribbon.
The two flower girls were dressed
in miniature gowns made of opal
pink chiffon and wore in their hair a
cluster of tiny roses and forget-me-
nots and carried baskets filled with
pastel spring flowers.
The bride was charming in her
wedding gown of blush satin, and
entered the church with her father,
by whom she was given in mar

Shotgun Main Help in Raising
Fish for OId-Line Anglers
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, April 26.-The
Maryland State Game and Fish
Protective Association has started
out to raise a lot Of fish with 4
shotgun.
Keystone of the associations
first privately financed trout hatch
cry, which formally will be opened
April 30, is $3.50 shotgun being
raffled off to provide funds for the
project.
Federal and State agencies will
furnish some $500 6 to inch trout
and assist in supplying food for
them. The association will keep the
fish until possibly next December,
then stock the largest in Baltimore
County streams
Site of the hatchery is the farm
OF John Horner, near Loeb Raven in
Baltimore County. A dam has been
built to divert water into an old
mill-race, where the trout will be
raised.
Joseph w. Brooks, jr.,chairman Of
the associations Fresh-Water Fish

project, working in cooperation
with Charles Jackson, acting chief
of the Federal Bureau of Fisheries,

good fishing in Maryland at time
when ordinarily nothing much is
doing.
OF course, the rain has its bad
aspects. The Potomac still is a
yellow ribbon of flowing mud.
That's bad for the perch fishing,
which for two weeks has been at
standstill when it should have
been at its height. Likewise rock
fishing, which usually begins during
the middle of April, still hasn't got
ten under way. The rains also have
added to the late winter, which sets

The council Of the American Pow
er Boat Association has given its
approval and official blessing on
two new racing classes in this coun-
try-the Pacific one-design hydro
plane and the 725-cubic-inch hydro
plane. Oddly enough. both classes
originated and gained their popu-
larity in the West, the former COM
ing into being at San Diego, Calf,
and the other, in and around Chi
cago, Ill.
Pacific one-designs are keynoted
by close restriction in design, con-
struction and power plant, thus af-
fording each owner an even chance
In large regattas. There are now
over $50 boats of this design in the
United States and more are under
construction.
With the 725s it is a different
story. There are no restrictions as
to size nor construction of the hull,
excepting that only bona fide racing
hydroplanes are eligible. Any type
Of motor within the displacement
limits of 488 to 1872 cubic inches is
permitted. Ofncials point out the
boat is distinct from the Gold Cup
class although able to compete in

estimates that about 1,o00.00 more
young men will qualify annually
from the educational standpoint.
1t is the hope of the War De-
partment that operation of the Sc
lective Service Act will tend to in
crease the number of applicants for
aviation training. There are many,
undoubtedly, who have failed to
apply for fight training because Of
reluctance to enter the Army, rather
than because they do not wish to
fly. Given no choice in the mat
ter of military training, there are
many who are expected to prefer
flying to service with other arms
and services.
Receive Pay While Training.
There are other inducements,
however. Flying cadets, during
their nine months of training, are
paid SITS a month. in addition to
equipment, food and lodging. Those
who complete their courses and are
commissioned sign up for three
years of active duty. AS second
lieutenants, they receive sos to
$245 a month. After three years,
those who elect to continue on
active duty become first heutenants
and receive as much as 1857 q
month.
American aviators who have VOL
unteered for service with the Brit
ish, but lack sufficient experience
also are to be trained in the United
States for non-combat duty in
Canada and Great Britain. British
arrangements for advanced train
ing for such volunteers have been
made by the British Embassy here.
Such pilots are to be used for such
duties as ferrying planes from fac
tories to airdromes, relieving British
pilots for actual combat service.
British arrangements for such
training in the United States call
for relatively sman-scale operations
at present, but the amount will be
increased as training planes become
available in increasing numbers.
