a regular shark rig. 1t consisted
of rs feet of quarter inch rope, a
f1oater, then Is feet of cable to
which was attached hook. The
end of the line was fastened to
their 16 foot boat which had a ten
h. p. outboard motor.
After only Is minutes Morris
and Markowitz got the bite. For
a time the huge shark pulled the
boat backwards. Then it tired
and they started to ease it into
shore. After about an hour they
were able to drag it upon the beach

Thursday evening they had it
out at State Police headquarters
north of Dover. 1t was hanging
from Biddie's tow truck. Morris,
who is a grocer store clerk, said
he shark was bluish-grey in color,
with a lighter belly, when they
landed it. BY nightfall 1t was turn
ing salmon color and had a distinc-

He said that it could be one of

there is no record of them ever at
