February Is was opening day In
Maryland for suckers, catfish, carp,
eels and gudgeon. A typographical
error in the recodiflcation of the
fish and game laws now before the
General Assembly was suspected of
having been the cause for SO few
fishermen trying their luck, but the
succeeding warm spell proved there
was no misunderstanding as to the
opening date. The near-zero tenn
peratures had kept the anglers in
doors.
The largest bass entered in the
seventh annual big bass contest
sponsored by the Western Auto Sup
ply Co. weighed l3 pounds, II

Local winners were C. w. Tabler

largemouth drew first prize of SAC
H. F. Mckinney. who got trophy
and $50 for a smallmouth weighing
9 ounces less, and C. F. O'Brien, who
received $25 for a black bass weigh
ing 3 pounds, 8 ounces.
There still are many fishermen
hoping for a little Florida fishing
before spring, but they would do
we'll to forget about it for the time
being. Right now there is no sport
fishing allowed in Florida in any
way in which the use of gasoline is
necessary. Even market fishermen
are not allowed to take passengers
for pay or free.

New Tank DESTROYER
In Mass Production
Al General Motors
Powerful lond Cruiser
Fost, Heavily Armored
Passes Bottle Tests
BY the Associated Press.


DETROIT, March production
Of powerful new tank destroyer
a land cruiser which can cope with
anything yet thrown into battle by
Germany-was announced yesterday
by General Motors Corp. "
The destroyer. one of three newly
designed models, Is known as the
MILO and is being built on volume
basis at the tank arsenal of General
Motors Fisher Body Division.
With War Department permission.
f. F. Fisher. general manager. gave
this brief description OF the de-
stroyer:
1t is of welded construction and is
faster than the ordinary tank. 1t Is
heavily armored. has great maneu-
verability and carries terrific fire.
power. Although the caliber and
range of the big gun mounted in
the turret are secret. Army officials
said it could trade blows on an even
basis with the much discussed So
millimeter weapons found on the
most recent German tanks in North
Africa.
The destroyer, it was disclosed, al
ready has been tested in battle and
it's performance has been described.
as excellent"
Working with Army officials, Fish,
er Body engineers designed the new
destroyer. 1t has lower silhouette
than tank, but has a full track.
In appearance it is somewhat sins
liar to the MA tank. also built by
Fisher Body Officials cautioned,
however, that the destroyer is not
to be considered a successor to the
MA. Each is intended for specific
purposes in battle and each is de-
signed to best meet certain require
mentS. -
Fisher explained that, having pro-
duced the welded MA, his company
was able to make numerous i'm.
provements in methods and proc-
esses for construction of the MILO.
Wherever possible in the MILO, he
said, sections are fabricated from
armor plate rather than being cast.
Each such fabrication, he pointed
out, saves valuable machining time
The turret Of the MILO, for ex-
ample, was designed for almost COM
plete fabrication, in contrast to the
cast turret of the MA. Adaptation
for machine welding was kept in
mind in designing the destroyer and
as result much less hand welding
is done than on the MA.
Because of such design and plan
ming, Fisher said, volume production
on the new MILO was reached In
an amazingly short period.

CHICAGO. March 1.-One- time H.
llterates rejected by Selective Serv-
ice are being rehabilitated for the
Army in sizable numbers as a result
of night classes in Chicago public
schools.
Out of several hundred rejected
draftees, 10 white men, two colored
and six Chinese, who had failed to
measure up to the equivalent of
fourth-grade schooling, already have
been graduated into the Army. Most
OF them could neither read nor
write when they first began strug-
Cling with the 3-Rs last fall.
In addition 38 others are consid-
cred sufficiently rehabilitated to be
reported back to their draft boards
for induction. Among these is a
28-year-old registrant who had two
years in college but who had to
start in learning all over again be-
cause of a mental impairment suf-
fered In an accident.
Col. Louis A. Booming, assistant
State Selective Service director, dis
closed the figures today in an in
terview in which he declared the re-
suits of the experiment, sponsored
by the Army, the Selective Service
and the Chicago Board of Educa-
t1on, were so satisfactory that plans
are under way to open a day school
for night workers. Thirty-four men
are ready to enter the day school.
Men Eager to Learn.
Col. Booming said Miss Frances
K. Wetmore, Board of Education
supervisor of adult educat ton, was
the spark plug" of the plan.
Started last November in one
school. the night classes have ex-
panded to seven schools, where 279
rejectees are under instruction. Di-
vided into groups of IS they spend
