Bomb Able
  In Flight

Aboard U. s. s. Appalachian at Bikini, July 23-CUP)-The Able Day atomic bomb burst within 50 feet of the planned altitude, Vice Admiral w. H. P. Blandy said today but he admitted it fell between l. 800 and 2,000 feet short of the tar get bullseye ship, the Nevada.
 The scorched appearance of many ships was not direct result of the atomic bomb, Blandy revealed. The blackening of some ships was caused from soot and smoke from the fun nels, whipped about by the shock waves.
 Blandy said that some thermom- eters placed on the ships decks reg lStered no more than 125 degrees despite the intense heat at the pin- point of the explosion, estimated at 100000 degrees Fahrenheit.
 Rear Admiral T. A. Solberg re- ported some boiler castings burst in several vessels from the effects of the bomb, but added that every tar get ship now afloat except the Jap battleship Nagato has its own power.
 In another review of the Able Day test, it was officially admitted

Scientists Will Sleep With A. Bomb

Off Bikini Atoll, July 23-(UP)- The man who pushes the button that will set off the underwater ex- plosion of the atom bomb isn't a bit worried about sleeping with the mighty weapon on the eve of Baker Day.
 Thirty-four-year- Dr. Marshal Hollaway, who heads a group of scientists from the Los Alamos, N M., atom bomb laboratory, said he planned "to get good nights sleep" aboard the weapon ship in Bikini lagoon the night before the test.

Shipyard Strikers Asked to Return

Boston, July 23-CUP)-Eighteen hundred C.I,O. employees of the Bethlehem Steel Company's Atlan- tic and Simpson Shipyards remain ed away from their jobs for the fourth day today even as union leaders appealed to the workers in a newspaper advertisement to re- turn tostheir jobs because the strike was unauthorized
 The advertisement was signed by Andrew A. Pettis, regional director of the Industrial Union of Marine and Shipbuilding Workers of Amer ica (CIO9. who urged the men to report to work at their regular shift time today because the na- tional union would not recognize the walkout He said he would try to arrange meeting between local union leaders and management.

Hunting
 and Fishing
By GENE vALLON

We have just been informed that the State Board of Fisheries, and Game has had several reports of losses of fish caused by careless handling of poison chemicals used for spraying crops,
 The Farm River in North Bran ford and the Pennington River at Avon have been polluted from this source during this past week.
 Lack of rainfall, as of last Sunday caused low stream flows so that pol lution this season is even more dan gerous than in normal seasons. Bags and boxes with traces of poison are dangerous to children, livestock and wildlife.
 The state has cautioned that oon- tainers of spray solution should not be flushed into streams or ponds. Any rinsing and cleaning of tanks and tools should be done at a safe distance from water. It is noted that public water supplies may be en- dangered by failure to observe prop CT precautions.
 Modern sprays contain substances which, in minute quantities, are ef- fective in insect control Animals other than insects are also affected by these chemicals.

 Every now and then a few alarm ing stories trinkle in via the grape vine about those few fishermen who are the bottle-neek in our drive to better the sports. Once again, We try to restrain ourselves from blow ing our tops

 IheSe boys are certainly not after sport. If 1t is meat they are after the front page says you can now get It III reasonable quantities at vo,Ir nearest meat-counter.
 At the last Council of Sportsmen July 18th, 1t was generally agreed among those present that the State Flsh & Game Board was lax in pro- Vldlng sport for this vicinity. This is true. But these few .meat-fisher- men certainly do not help the situa- ton any
 We could appeal for common-de- cency but 1t might be futile. So let's ask for more systematic check by patrolman. We understand this lake is patrolled during the day, but not after dark. The n1onkev-busi- ness turks in the dark.

 It has been a practice with VOLT writer to print the trout-stocking- nSt O. streams in the various conn tles upon receipt of this information rom the Fish & Game Board
 In answer to few inquiring fish, errnen, the reason no such informa- uon was prointed within the past month was that none was received from Hartford.

Kindler's Suite From Handel's
'Teseo' Provides Novelty

phony was somewhat uneven, the
high point being reached in the
stirring finale of the third move
ment, where DR.. Kindler's inspira-

climax and led to an equally satis-

Miss Lunde in Recital.
The young American pianist, Sol
veig Lunde, was given a cordial re-
ception in a recital last night in the
National Gallery of Art. Well
equipped for the varied program she
gave, Miss Lunde plays with assur-
ance and temperament. 1t is per-
haps the latter that leads her to set
great store by volume and speed and
which overlooks the finer points OF
interpretive presentation.
This was chiefly evident in q
Chopin group which. while given
brilliancy by her technical facility
and her personal enthusiasm and
well delivered according to the mu-
slcal requirements, was wanting in
delicacy of intention and clarity OF
form. The "Polonaise In A fiat
major" suited her best and was
played with elan. Beethovens Pas
torale" sonata and Bach's "Toccata
in G major" also demonstrated the
innate powers of her pianistic gift
If also its possibilities for further
development.
Her program concluded with
Medtner's Fairy Tale in B fat
minor" the Waltz" and March
from Prokofieff's "Children's Pieces

The National Symphony Orchestra
had Emery Darcy, a Metropolitan
Opera tenor, as soloist yester-
day afternoon and although he has
won renown in some of Lauritz Mel
clior's Wagnerian roles, unlike the
great heroic tenor, he included none
of the arias in his selections. Ex-
cept for the popular "Ombra mai
fu" from Handel's "Xerxes," his
numbers we're all songs, featuring
two by the Washington composer,
Mary Howe.
The real novelty of the concert,
fitting in well with Mr.. Darcy's first
number, was DR.. Hans Kindler's
arrangement into Suite" of music
from Handels ""Teseo." This is
charming music, with the more con-
ventional overture followed by a
dainty minuet of delightful fantasy
and a sprightly gigue, the whole
forming an especially attractive ad-
dition to the symphony's literature.
DR.. Kinder found the little known
music and, with his keen apprecia-
ton of its possibilities and his skill
in transferring it to the greater
sonoritieS of modern orchestra,
has given it concrete form for the
enjoyment of present day audiences.
Yesterday was the first opportun-
ity to hear Mr.. Darcy in a concert
hall, his previous appearance with
the National Symphony in 1914
being at the Water Gate, where he
4 ~ hn hnY0nft 1f
In Constitution Hall, his voice
showed less evenneSs of resonance
and power in its range and his sing
ing was more labored than was the
case at the summer performance
The voice, lifted from its original
baritone quality, has freshness and
appeal but not until Mr.. Darcy sang
his final number, Rachmaninoff' S
Floods Of Spring" and Gretchan-
inov's "Over the Steppe" did he
achieve the smoothness of tone and
the poise of delivery of which he is
capable. RoSsini's La Danza" and
Rachmaninoff' "Oh, Thou Billowry
Harvest Field" held a certain tense
ness but the two lovely songs by
Mary Howe, ITO the Unknown Sol
dier" and "Liebeslied," were more
finely acclaimed. The tall, energetic
tenor was recalled several times but
only one encore was forthcoming.

New Sugar
Stamp No. 9
Now Valid
Canning Sugar Outlook
Points To 10 Pounds Per
Person This Season

Spare stamps 9 in family ration
books now are good for five
pounds of home canning sugar
but the Maryland OPA State
Office has expressed the hope that
housewives will not be in too
much Of rush to use the stamps.
Spare stamp became valid as of
March IL and will be good
through October 81, 1916.
Leo H. Mccormick, Maryland
State Director, this week repeated
the advice to all consumers to
retain their books specifically
labeled sugar"
Most consumers will find spare
stamp 8 in their war ration book
four, the OPA said. Others, in
Guiding many service men have
received their ration book issued
to them in lieu of war ration
book four.
The OPA said it appears I'M
likely that the home canning
sugar allowance this season will
be more than 10 pounds per
person. This is because of the
uncertainties in the sugar supply
outlook, particularly as to the
amount of the Cuban crop which
will be available and in relation to
the requirements of war stricken
areas.
"No addition to the regular con-
sumner ration, five pounds each
four month period, can be fore
seen at this time," Mr.. Mccormick
said. Housewives are urged,
therefore, to continue to budget
their sugar use so that the home
canning sugar will be used only
as intended, for actual home
canning"
The next regular sugar stamp
becomes valid May /. 1t is ex-
pected that a second stamp for
home canning sugar can be
validated in late June or early
July and have a validity period
long enough to permit its use
when fruits become plentiful in
each area.
