HOW TO MAKE A
COFFEE TABLE

A broad-top coffee table of SIM
pie, but attractive design, may be
made with just few hand tools
Its attractiveness lies in the SIM
plicity of its structure, and in the
use of wood that will harmonic
with other furniture in the room.
The legs are made to resemble
picture frames. using 2x2 material,
and the top may be made of boards
or hardwood plywood.
First make the picture frame
legs. The pieces may be sawed
from one piece of 2x2, using a
mitre box to guide the As degree
angle cuts. Or, without mitre box,
the angles may be easily drawn,
the inner corners of the frame
pieces being inches deeper than
the corresponding outer corners. The
completed frame legs are IL inches
wide and II inches tall. The frame
is held together with wood glue
and 3lz inch wood screws. The
screws enter the frame through the
bottom and top members, and are
countersunk.
The top pieces of the picture
frames" form the ends of the table
frame. The sides of the table frame
are 2x4's, % inches long. These are
fastened to the leg frames with
screws, and corner brace blocks are
added for greater strength and sta
bility.
The table top may be built up of
1x3 tongue and grove material en-
cased in Ike border. Or, a hard
wood plywood top may be added to
produce broad, unbroken top sur
face. If hardwood plywood is used,
regular 1-inch boards may be used
instead of the tongue and groove
material. The plywood is fastened
with screws from beneath.
The border strip is fastened to
the top with finishing nails.
The table frame, consisting of the
legs and side members is then GEN.
tered on the underside of the COM
pleted top. Wood screws 21s inches
long are used to fasten the table
top to the. top of the leg frames.
With the exception of the finish
ing nails used to held the border
strip, all metal fastenings are out
of sight. The finishing nails should
be sunk into the wood with a nail
set, and the holes filled.

Tax Started Low:
It's Way Up Now

Mississippi's gasoline tax, 80 years
old next week, produces 60 times
as much revenue as it did the fret
year it was in effect, Walter 2 2
May, executive secretary of the
Mississippi Petroleum Industries
Committee said. Mr.. May said when
Mississippi first levied this tax it
was 10 cents on 10 gallons and there
was no Federal tax. Now he said,
"the state tax amounts to 70 cents
on ten gallons, and the additional
Federal levy, first imposed in 1892
brings the total tax to 80 cents on
a ten gallon purchase. In addition
to this tax, the state and city sales
taxes apply on gasoline"

begins in the spring when the
water temperature is 60 to IS
degrees F.; in Maryland this
generally is in April, with the
month of May covering the great
est spawning period; eggs hatch in
from two days to a week, depend
ing on water temperature.
HABITS: Favorable habitats for
the smallmouth are cool, clean,
clear streams and deep, cold lakes;
sandy or rocky bottoms preferred;
most anglers consider the small
mouth gamier than the largemouth.
MANAGEMENT: Must have clear,
we'll aerated water, free of pol
luton; food and cover; legal pro-
lection necessary in many waters
due mainly to ever increasing
fishing pressure; needs little stock
ing except in new or entirely de-
pleted waters; improvement of
habitat and cleaning up pollution
most essential in good management.
VALUE: Classed strictly as a
game fish, for it is more valuable
for recreational purposes than
commercially; its sale is prohibited
in Maryland. 1t provides recrea-
ton and food for millions of sports
fishermen throughout the United
States and Canada, and is a source
of income to many who furnish
the necessities for successful
angling. The species has been sue
cessfully transplanted to Foreign
Countries.

SMALLMOUTH BLACK BASS
(Micropte17ts dolomieu)

RANGE: Is now found in nearly
every State including Maryland,
where it was introduced in the
Potomac River in the year 1854,
from West Virginia. By many con-
sidered "the gamest fish that
swims." Plentiful in the Potomac
River and Susquehanna River and
tributaries; unlike it's near relative
the largemouth black bass it is
not found in Maryland fresh tidal
waters, where the largemouth
thrives. 1t prefers fast, deep
waters, with gravelly or rock bot
toms, rather than muddy bottoms,
and lakes with clear cold water.
DESCRIPTION: A bronzed-green,
rarely black, color; usually lighter
in color than the largemouth; dark
vertical stripes on sides some
times; color varies with water con-
ditions. The rear end of the jaw
is directly under the eye; the cheek
has from IL to II rows of scales,
while the largemouth has usually
II or less; the dorsal fin is not
deeply notched, while this division
in the largemouth often almost
divides the dorsal into two separate
fins.
BREEDING: The male makes the
nest generally on gravelly bottoms
by cleaning the debris from the
bottom with fins and mouth; he
guards the eggs and also the young
fish for day or so, then they are
on their own. Nesting generally

JACKSON, MISS.
Why Is This Night Different?

The Jews are people who like
to ask questions. It has been said
that the Jew answers a question
with a question. The whole Tai
mudical dialectics is essentially
nothing but questions and an
swers. The sages of the Talmud
found in every word Of the Bible
and the. Mishna a complex Of in
Vulnerable questions. So many
questions that it even became
necessary apparently for Elijah
the prophet, inextricably associ-
ated with the Passover ceremon-
ial, to assume as one of his major
problems the untying of some of
these knotty problems-the ques-
tons answered by the Yeshiba
bachurin.
A transcendent figure is this
eminent Passover guest. A wine
cup is prepared for him and he
visits every Seder on Passover
night. This is made easier for him
by the fact Of his unusual powers
Of locomotion which, according to
legend, even outclass a jet plane
In four strides he can go from
one end of the world to another
He must have this swiftness tc
bring succor and help to the des-
titute and suffering wherever
they may be. He is a man of in
finite DISCUSSES and resources.
Once he disguised himself as
prostitute to save Rabbi Meyer

Lipscomb 10 Sign
On Redskins Terms;
Coach Reads Riot Act
By Lewis r. Atchison
Star Sfdff Correspondent

LOS ANGELES, Aug. Paul
Lipscomb, holdout tackle, re-
joined the Redskins today and
worked out with the squad.
Coach Curly Lambeau said
Lispcomb had agreed to terms
but had not signed his contract.
He expected to attend to that
formality during the day.
'Lipscomb is back on our
terms" Lambeau said. "We
want him only if he plays the
brand of football I know he is
capable of playing, but I don't
think Well have to worry about
that. I'm glad to have him
back. he can help us"
Lipscomb, weighing 268 pounds,
said he didn't know whether he
would stay If he didn't feel bet
ter than he did yesterday when
he put on a pair of shorts and
logged around the field.
Coach Lays Down Law.
Meanwhile, a worried Lambeau
laid down the law to his squad.
Mincing no words, the verer-
an coach said the Redskins
should have = lost only three
games last year, one to the Bal
timore Colts and two to the
Cleveland Browns. Instead they
lost five. The Browns had the
better team, Curly admitted. and
the Redskins were at a psyche
logical disadvantage when they
lost to the Colts in a game COM
ing between the two meetings
with Cleveland.
Lambeau blamed the other
losses on unpreparedness. -physi-
cal and mental. He said the
coaches know certain players
were "fooling around" break
ing training rules and not CIV
ing their best the full so min
utes of every game.
Several Players Hurt.
Vic Thomas, Ted Kress, Jack
Cloud and Roger Dornburg were
excused from yesterdays prac-
tice because of injuries. Thomas
knee is worse than first sus-
pected and the rookie from Col
orado may be out for 10 days
or two weeks.
Kress was kept out as a pre-
caution. The Michigan young
ster suffered a mild conclusion
in Saturdays scrimmage, while
Dornburg. a back from Wiscon-
sin, turned his ankle and Is limp
ing slightly. The veteran Cloud
had an ingrown toenail removed.

continued through Wednesday,

paration for the San Diego game
