SYLT, Germany.-(AP).-For-
mer German army barracks on
this North Sea island are being
rebuilt to house the German fish
ermen and their families who
used to live on Helgoland and
now have been evacuated to
Schleswig- Holstein.
Sylt offers them virtually the
same conditions they were used
to on Helgoland and they can
again pursue their fishing indus
try from the New Helgoland."
The new colony is expected to
be ready for occupancy by sum-
mer. The Royal Navy intends to
blow up the extensive military
installations on Helgoland soon,
making it impossible for fisher
men to live there in the future
although two of its harbors will
remain to shelter fishermen from
storms.

SUPREME MOMENT

The Citizens piscatorial
seer and prophet and what
not has noted that, whenev-
Ell reference is made to Pres
ident Truman's fishing. he
is reported to have used a
handline.
Home-bred Key w e t
anglers would like to grip
the Presidents hand and
assure him he knows the
how, why and wherefore Of
fishing. To us, using a rod
and reel, is very much like
eating soup with a fork.
You don't get the feel of a
fish when you set back on
your rod and hook him;
you don't, get the Jingle in
your hands when you reel in
a fish.
4 We are aware that de-
voices of rod and reel de-
clare that catching fish for
sport with a handline is
something like pulling in a
boats painter or hawser.
For is years the aforesaid
piscatorial seer and prophet
pulled 'em in with rod and
reel in the waters in the vi
cinity of New York City. He
followed the sport in that
way because, had he used
a handline, he would have
been set apart from the
herd. 1t was a case OF
when in Rome do as the
Romans do"
He gave away his rod and
reel when he returned to
Key West. Had he attempt
ed to use it here the home
town folks would have toted
a superior sneer when he
went to commune with his
finny brethren. But that was
not his reason for eschewing
rod and reel. He thrilled at
the thought of feeling a
strike in his fingertips;
thrilled at the thought of
the lines whizzng through
his hands while he played a
doughty fighter.
He who thinks there is
not sport in catching a tar
pom, an amberjack or a sail
fish on a handline, let him
try it only once, and, if he
is not an expert, his hands
will be burned as though by
fire. The expert handline
