Fish Gets Awuy
With Assist by
Gay Boutmun

INDIAN ROCKS BEACH,
Fla. (AP)-If George weis-
ner goes through life with an
antipathy toward pleasure
boatmen, it's understandable.
The 17-year-old Largo boy,
fishing from q local pier with
heavy tackle one recent night,
hooked into o big fish, prob
ably q giant grouper.
The fish refused to tire.
George fought him through
the night. Other fishermen
brought him coffee. Daylight
came, and still the fight con-
tinued. 1t went on through
the morning.
A few minutes past noon.
q pleasure boat came along,
the operator oblivious to the
fishing duel. Spectators on
the pier yelled and waved
their arms. but the boatman
ignored them. The boat cut
Georges line, and the fish
swan away.
He lost his fish after bat
ting 1t for 13h hours.

FAMOUS FABLES
By E. E. EDGAR

RIGGED: Columnist Don
Marquis and Haywood Broun
enjoyed playing pool, but
each was woefully lacking in
skill. At one time, their
friends arranged a contest
between the two, relates Ed
ward Anthony in 20 Rare
Don Marquis"
ut was decided to stage
the match at Doyle's Bill
lard Academy, New York's
favorite haunt Of the pool
minded. Those who made
the arrangements consulted
Mr.. Doyle on the best method
of playing a practical Joke
on the contestants.
THAT resourceful entire
preneur said he would see
to it that the columnists
played with balls that were
just a trifle too large to enter
the pockets. To the naked
eye, they seemed like any
other billiard balls, but they
were pocket-proof by the
tiniest fraction.
Even poor players like
Marquis and Broun OCCASION
ally made a good shot-but
not that day. Every time q
ball seemed headed for a
pocket. it would carom off
to one side. After they had
been playing for some time,
they decided to investigate.
"Broun picked up a ball
and tried to push it into a
pocket by hand. When he
was unable to do so, he and
Don realized that they had
been duped."

Our teachers are on q
spoil Suddenly they are ex-
pected to know the answers.
It wasn't that way when
Invent to school. Then, teach
er asked the questions. We
answered. Discussions were
few. Interests were limited.
No one travelled much.
Neither my classmates nor
my teachers had been out
side the State. Few had been
outside the county. Geogra-
ply existed only In q book,
from which we got the idea
some countries were pink,
some green, some yellow.
We looked upon rain as
merely something that kept
US in the house. No one tried
to explain the weather to
US. We never asked. Grand
mas bunion was known to
be the best weather prophet.
Now all this has changed!
Children gain much Of
their education from travel.
They see weather maps in
newspapers. They listen to
televised discussion Of wealth
er conditions, illustrated with
maps and charts.
Now they are asking ques-
tons - and they expect
teacher to supply the an
swers.
How are highs and lows
formed?" they ask. what
is an occluded front? Why
did it rain today? Why does
the wind blow2 What makes
mountains? What about ami
mails, flowers, oceans, ad
infinitum?"
It is teachers Job to give
pupils precise answers using
correct words. Nothing q
child is told should have to
be unlearned. It Is also
teachers job to encourage
curiosity and desire for

the warmth Of the islanders, the lift to the body and the
spirit from your wonderful beaches and climate. and the
majestic beauty Of the Islands. | wish / could deliver this
message to you personally. Although | cannot be with
you at this time, want to express my appreciation for the
tribute your Legislature has paid me-jointly with your
able Governor-n designating April 9Th as Kennedy-Paie-
wonsky Day. The progress achieved in the short year since
Governor Paiewonsky was inaugurated is heartening and
worthy of note. But more significantly, it points the
way to even greater a-chievements-it is, | am certain, the
harbinger Of a great period of development for the Ameri-
can Virgin Islands.
1t is appropriate on this anniversary day to announce
that tomorrow shall send to the Congress proposed legis-
lation recognizing the progress you have madesand provid-
ing base for realizing an increased degree OF political
and economic development. | shall ask the Congress to
enact legislation permitting the people of the Virgin Is
lands to elect your executive officers-Governor and the
Government Secretary. The proposal would also transfer
the assets and activities of the Virgin Islands Corporation
to the Government of the Virgin Islands; provide a new
Legislative Apportionment and authorize the sale OF full
faith and credit bonds to finance such Improvements as
schools and highways.
