WEEKEND OUTLOOK
First Spot Bite at SoIomons
As Fishing Picks Up in Bay

Chesapeake Bay fishing, in
the doldrums so far, at last
is picking up. The hottest spots
are Solomons and Point Look
out.
Combined with fair to good
fishing along the seacoast from
Morehead City, NC, to Lewes.
Del, WaShingtonianS shouldn't
have too much trouble picking
a place to fish this week end.
Spot are the big news in the
Bay. They made their first ap-
pearance of the season We'd
nesday at Solomons. Catches
of 35 to SO were reported made
by skiff fishermen, principally
off Hog Island at the mouth
Of the Patuxent River.
Hardhead and spot are the
mainstays of Chesapeake bot
tom fishing and up to now the
latter had been missing COM
pletely while the former have
been scarce.
Trolling Also Good
A few hardhead, an occa-
sional trout and scattered
snapper blues also are being
caught in the mouth of the
Patuxent, but trolling for rock
fish is said to be very good.
Large catches of fish up to
21s pounds are being made
among schools breaking off
Cove Point.
In the Point Lookout area,
party boats travelling to the
mud lead off Smith Island are
making good catches of trout.
A holiday trip netted $50
ranging to 11a pounds along
with some Writings or king
fish and founders. The trout
are favoring peeler crab, but
they are also taking shrimp
and bloodworms.
Hardhead Return
Hardhead also have returned
to the Middle Grounds with
catches of from seven to 40
running to 2A pounds. Great
numbers of small blues are all
over the lower bay and up the
mouth of the Potomac.
Only a few rock are reported
on the grass beds of Smiths
Greek. Others are biting at the
edge of the grass above the oil
company pier at Piney Point.
From Rock Hall down there
is fair fishing for rock but little
else. Trollers and eel drifters
are getting a few large rockfish
around the Bay Bridge.
Small rock are biting off
Thomas Point and quite a few
perch may be caught around
No. 2 and No. 8 buoys IN South
River. South River grabbing is
good.
Some very large perch are in
deep water off Holland Point
bar near Deale but charter
boats are drifting eels On the
Gooses for big rock or trolling
elsewhere. One party got IL

BY CHARLES COVELL
Outdoor Editor

This is National Boating

tratlon and there are three
fold-out, multicolored charts
with enlarged inSetS Of the
most active boating areas.
One of these is new, a large
scale inset Of Combs Greek

was also the first observatory to record the nuclear test one week ago.
 The biggest United States nuc- lear test bomb has been reported at IS to 20 megatons.
 Radio Moscow in morning broadcasts made no mention of the explosion and there was no- thing about It in Soviet news papers.
 At least 27 blasts have been re- corded since the Russians broke the truce on nuclear testing Sept and set off a series of bombs that grew progressively larger in strength.
 At Bodoe, Norway's new radia- tion warning command said the prevailing winds were carrying the radio active cloud from the explosion away from the Scan dinavian peninsula and over the Arctic Sea.

Alaska Education
 Assn. To Seek Pay Hikes for Teachers

ANCHORAGE R - The Alaska Education Assn. will ask the 1862 Legislature for teacher pay hikes as it did last year, according to Haze Bergeron, executive secre- tary.
 It was resolved by the sixth an- nual delegate assembly meeting here this weekend to request the State Board of Education to tighten standards for teachers.
 Bergeron explained that inex- pcrienced teachers now receive a base pay of $5,OO0, which is $20O under the national average. Con- sidering that the cost of living is 30 to 40 per cent righer in Alaska than in the nation," Der geron said. The ABA proposes the base salary be raised to $6,OOO.
 The proposal to stiffen stand ards is to make mandatory a bachelors degree for teachers. Those presently holding three year certificates would have to secure a bachelors dgeree by Sept. 1, 1865.
 This proposal was ignored by the State Board, Bergeron said, because of the difficulty in find- ing qualified teachers to go to schools in the bush. He said this problem mcs.ld be alleviated if the Legislature raises salaries. Teachers from the outside would be attracted ts teach in Alaska, Bergeron claim ,, ed.
 The three-day series of session of the association wound up Sat urday night at Alaska Methods University.

Nikita Warns British They May be First to Feel
 Atomic and Missile Blows

LONDON R-Premier Khrush- chev, in a letter made public just a few hours after the latest big Soviet nuclear blast, warned today that if war breaks out Britain may be "aniong the first to experience the destructive power of nuclear blows"
 The letter was in reply to 62 British labor party legislators who sent him protest about ntl% clear tests. He said the USSR had been compelled to resume tests because of Western military threats. particularly over Berlin.
 "We are now carrying out ex- perimental blasts and improving our weapons so that mankind may never experience the horrors of nuclear war;" Khrushchev de- clared.
 He said the best way to insure peace would be the conclusion of German peace treaty as pro posed by the Soviet Union. -

White House Says Blast Was Political Rather Than a Military Act

WASHINGTON R The White House said the super-bomb Russia exploded today was on the order of 50 megatons and twas a political rather than a military act"
 A formal statement described the Russian test as primarily an indictment to frighten and panic the cold war" It said 1t does not affect the basic balance of nu- clear power
 The statement said the Soviet Union has deliberately overrid- den the expressed hope of the world" as stated in the resolution adopted by the JUN. General As sentbiy two days ago. < The White House said that while the United States itself has ample military power to destroy any nation which could unleash fllerznor,slciear war, i've have nc wish to use this nilite= power and are ready as ever to sign a testIban treaty or to negotiate a treaty for general and complete disarmament.
 Tn the meantime, we will con- tinue to take whatever measures are necessary to preserve the security of our country and of others who count on us," the statement said.

US. Accuses Russia Of Pushing the
 World To Anarchy

UNITED NATIONS, NY. H- The United States today accused the Soviet Union of pushing the world toward anarchy and dis aster by exploding it's massive superboanb. Other delegations al so expressed abhorrence and dis tress over the Soviet move.
 The Soviet Union avoided any reference to this mornings ex- plosion, but said it had been forced to carry out the current series of nuclear bomb tests to prevent the United States from launch ing nuclear war.
 The debate took place in tbe General Assembly's Political Con- mittee. US. Ambassador Adlai Stevenson launched the criticism of the Soviet Union.
 Stevenson charged that the So- viet Union had shown cynical disregard for the United Nations and it's appeal to the Kremlin not to test 50-megaton bomb ap- proved last Friday night by a vote of 87-1i1.
 Soviet delegate Semyon Tsarap- kin quoted at length from Pre- mier Khrushchev's statement ex- plaining the Soviet governments t's reasons for going against the world opinion to carry out the bomb tests. Then he added: l "In order to prevent nucleal and rocket war, all measure must be taken. And one of thes measures which can prevent yo from launching a nuclear wear ons war is to increase the de l fensive position of the Sovie Union. This is why we do it"
 Stevenson said there was n 1 justification for the explosion ( the gigantic bomb except "fc l intimidation.
 Il "If this is what MT. Tsarapki calls Soviet realism. the chic US. delegate said, then God hel us aLa escape from Russian real ism"
 He told the committee today 1 test apparently was even large than the 50 megatons expected.
 Today, MT. Chairman, th, world has taken great leal backward toward anarchy ana disaster" Stevenson said.

Man Burns to Death In Radio Station Fire

ANCHORAGE M - The body of man burned to death when fire destroyed radio station KEAR was identified Saturday as that of Ade Carlson, fl, night disc jockey.
 Carlson, formerly of Duluth, Minn., died when flames raced through the station Friday night. A woman, who had been in a house trailer next door, tried to rescue him, but a wall of flame between the office and the con- trol room where he was working barred her passage.
 A listener reported hearing Carlson broadcast. Suddenly there was crash in the background, then the station was silent.
 Carlson came to Anchorage about four months ago from Bill lings, Mont.

By The Assoctared Press

Defying world opinion, the So- viet Union today set off in the Arctic the mightiest man made bomb in history. European scien- lists said it was at least of 50- rnegaton strength and may have been larger, perhaps even in the 1O0-negaton range.
 Swedish scientists said tn e bomb might be as much as 215 times as large as the Soviet blast just a week ago that sent waves of fear around the earth and brought protests from all sides.
 That one was placed in the 30- megaton range the equivalent of 30 million tons of TINT. A Swed- ish defense spokesman noted that if today's blast was 211 or more tirnes stronger it would place it in the 1OO-negaton range.
 Khrlishchev told the 22nd So- siet Community party congress two weeks ago the nuclear test ing resumed in September pro- bably would end with the explo- sion of the superbomb. He said it would be in the 50 snegaton range, and added that the Soviet Union had 100-megaton bomb but would not explode it.
 Fallout from the week-old blast was moving across eastern Cam ada and the northeastern United States when the new bomb was set off.
 The st1perblast was first reg istered at the Uppsala University Seismological Institute. 43 miles north of Stockholm, Sweden. Il

Nuclear Scientist Claims Latest Blast Is Dirty One


 WASHINGTON tA Dr. Ralph Lapp, nuclear scientist, express ed belief that the Russian super bomb exploded today Is a ''very dirty" one which would lead to a marked increase next spring in naclear fallout in the United States. - =E4sss
 Lapp, non-eovert1ment sci- ss::ss.sssst who has written books on atomic 1hysics, said the nub of the question posed by the great blast was :how dirty 1t was?"-- That is how much radioactive ma terial is spewed into the skies, to fall sooner or later on the earth.
 However, US. Public Health Service authorities have express ed the view that the Russian nu- clear tests will not increase fall- out to point where changes in American habits, or diets would be necessary. These authorities have also stated, though, that in the opinion of most scientists, any increase in radiation may be a menace to some people, in pre- sent or future generations.
 It is expected that much of the radioactive debris from the Russian bomb blasts will be de- layed in reaching the earth until next spring. This Is the reason:
 In a big nuclear blast, even one that occurs in the atmosphere below 35,000 feet, much Of the debris is hurled high into the stratosphere. Late In the winter, a sort of down-draft over the Nerth Polar area pulls t down into the atmosphere, where 1t can be carried to earth by rain.
