feel that they have some share in
the war; a better informed public
about 4-F's, who are not that by
choice, but by the force of circum-
stances. He also advised the
schools to form a program to elm
mate physical disability among
young men.

LIFT DEEP SEA
FISHING BAN
2-Year Ban Lifted on Deep
Sea Fishing Off Coast
of Delaware
COAST GUARD RULING

Deep sea fishing in the Atlantic
off the Delaware coast, banned
since October, 1912, because of war
restrictions, has been lifted to per-
NIT operation of vessels approx
mately eight miles off shore, it was
announced by Capt. E. A. Coffin,
district Coast Guard officer for the
Fourth Naval District. Grateful
for the lifting of the restrictions,
fishing boat operators say they are
still faced with reduced fishing be-
cause of the OPA refusal to grant
more than 125 gallons of gasoline
for a three-month period to in
board vessels operating from Della
ware and Maryland. The OPA in
New Jersey is planned to grant
$50 gallons for the same period.
One deep sea trolling trip in a
moderate size vessel consumes
about 80 gallons of gasoline while
a quick run eight miles off shore
and back again takes about Is gall
Ions. The new regulations do not
affect fishing in the Delaware Bay,
which is considered inland water
way fishing.
Fishing Parties
Under the relaxed sea fishing
bonafide party fishing boats of 3S
or more feet in length may oper-
ate outside inland waters of the
Fourth District under certain re-
strictions from sunrise to sunset.
No night fishing is permitted out
side. To qualify as party boat,
the craft must have been docu-
mented as such before Dec. Z, 1941;
must be approved for carrying at
least six persons for hire in addi-
tion to the operator and the crew.
The owner and operator must be a
citizen. All persons on board con-
nected with the ownership or oper-
alton of the boat must have Coast
Guard Identification cards. The
names, addresses and nationalities
of all passengers will be listed for
Coast Guard inspection. Otherwise,
there are no restrictions on pas
sengers.
| Season Opens at Bowers
Anglers and boatmen are looking
forward to season of good fishing
at Bowers Beach on the basis of
the first catch of the season when
a party of six hook-and-line anglers
on a boat of Millard Thompson re-
turned with 120 fish, practically all
of them croakers. Gasoline ration
ing appeared the major obstacle to
a thriving fishing season. Under
OPA regulations, boat is permit
ted only 125 gallons for three
months, and, in addition, motoring
parties will be handicapped by the
rationing. Although much trout is
being caught by the nets of COM
mercial fishermen in the Delaware
Bay, the hook-and-line angler does
