German Radio Tells
fWreck of Sub
On Coastal Reefs

BOSTON, Sept. 5 CUP) - A Ger
man U-boat commander and some
of his crew were taken prisoners
after they drove their submarine on
a reef off the u. S. coast to escape
depth bombs, according to a broad
cast from an anti-Nazi station in
Germany picked up by the Boston
Globes shortwave listening post.
The broadcast, it was said, was
made by the clandestine German
station, Gustav Siegfriend l. 1t was
based on a letter sent by the COM
mander to Admiral Doenis, head
of the German U-boat fleet" and
purported to show the stupidity of
Hitler's censors who tried to
change or suppress the letter.
The broadcasters said the letter
was from 1t. Georg Stab who wrote
he was sorry at being unable to
return and report to my supreme
commander"

OUTDOORS With BILL Acxs&u4~
Light Rods, Lines Now Are Most Popular
For Anglers After Fun in Chesapeake

The question of the right tackle
for Chesapeake Bay fishing again
pops up. At best, any recommended
ton usually is a personal idea.
Lately, the trend has been toward
lighter rods and lines and many who
purchased boat rods heavy enough
to land a marlin are putting them
aside in favor of casting tackle.
The reason for rod in the first
place is because of the play or
cushioning effect to take sudden and
undue strain off the line and to
provide spring action between the
fish and the angler. If the rod tip
is too heavy for the fish, there is
no action and little fun.
A 4-ounce tip or any of the light
steel rods either solid or hollow of
comparable weight are ideal for all
around bay fishing. There isn't a
single species, including the large
cobia, which cannot easily and sue
cessfully be taken on such rod.
Six-Thread Widely Used.
Sx-thread line with a breaking
strength of 10 pounds when wet is
the size almost universally used with
such tip but nine-thread may be
substituted by those preferring the
added strength.
For hardheads, trout and spot we
like tournament line. 1t casts easily,

that is just a part Of the game for
those who use tan added hazard

The continued use Of cotton
thread will make any angler more
adept, even to juggling his lead free
from the sharp shell usually found
on or around the best bay fishing
grounds.
The one kind of bay fishing which
will not permit the successful use
of ultralight tackle Is trolling, par
