Sea Bass
 Tops All Fish

Bass is a magic word to any sports fisherman and to the gour- met as well. For this splendid fish is not only good in the catching but superb in the eating.
 Attractive also is the low price tag usually attached to sea bass. This makes it doubly inviting to the prudent housewife who wants to please her family and keep with in her budget. Not only that but sea bass is available the year round, according to the Fishery Council.
 Known in the Chesapeake region as "black will" and in the southern states as black fish,, sea bass is a leader in taste regardless of the section and if cooked properly. It is generally caught on the Atlantic coast from Massachusetts to Florida in waters where there is a rocky or rough bottom.
 It is a lean fish with a fine flavor and has an inviting white flesh. At the market 1t averages about two pounds in weight though a seven and one-half pound sea bass has been caught. x
 Tn its natural state, the sea bass Is pleasing to the eye with It's scales working out a stripe and check pat tern. Properly prepared and ready for eating 1t IS twice as pleas ant.
 Following is a good way to prepare sea bass:
 Baked Sea Bass "
 large Sea Bass
 3 cloves garlic
 teaspoon olive oil
 tablespoon butter
 6 large tomatoes, sliced
 6 large onions, sliced
 2 green peppers sliced
 Salt, pepper
 s teaspoon worcestershire sauce
 Clean and wash the bass, rub 1t with salt and pepper. With a sharp knife open the fish in three places and in each opening stuff one clove of garlic. Rub the olive oil over the bottom of a baking pan, add the butter, and heat 1t. Then lay in the fish and cover with the sliced vegetables, salt and pepper. Cook until the vegetables are done (about hour), and haste frequent- ly, adding the worcestershire sauce when half done.

Diamonds Aid
Mass Production

With 90 per cent of the worlds
diamond production utilized by
industry, IL is natural that De-
ltroit, the industrial capital Of the
world, should also be the center
of the diamond tool manufacture
ing industry.
Among the leaders in the field
lis the Abrasive Dressing Tool
Company, makers of Red Band
and the new Redi Edge diamond
tools, and few firms are more
closely aligned with the nations
defense effort.
Industrial diamonds are used
primarily for truing the surfaces of
grinding wheels. Further de-
mands for accurate finishes have
resulted in the use of a great
many diamond boring and turning
tools in finishing aluminium,
bronze and babbitt bushingS.
Diamonds are also used indus
trially for turning. boring, roaming,
facing and forming synthetic ma
lterials like hard rubber, casein
compositions. compressed fibers
and other essential defense ma
lterialS.
Specially shaped diamonds are
mounted in dies and are used for
drawing fine wires such as are
found in radio tubes and electric
lamps. Diamond dust, in polish
ling operations, perform an incom-
parable service for microscopic
precision results.
