Pf Twlvt INI SOUTHERN ISRABITI Friday, July 3, 1 ‘Uncle’ Moise Kaplan Dies; Authored Book on Fishing Once there was a man in At lanta with a manuscript about deep sea fishing and he wanted the services of a professional writer. So, he contacted a young re porter on the Atlanta Journal editorial staff about giving the manuscript a quick going-over. Just to see that commas and semi-colons were in the right places and the subjects had proper numerical verbs, the man said. It sounded like a job for a proof-reader and not for a cre ative writer. But the time was on the fringe of the depression and any prospect of a few extra buoks made even such an as signment worth while to a strug gling journalist. The main reason, the author- to-be selected the Atlanta Jour nal reporter was, he said, be cause he wanted a person who had never gone fishing. In this way, there would be no projec- tiim of different views into the manuscript on' deep sea game fishing. No person in those days could have had any fewer ideas about deep sea fishing or been more removed from any tinge of being a fisherman than Adolph Rosen berg and so the shiddach was arranged. The reward of the set-up proved not to be the few bucks paid for the job but the great pleasure of getting to know Moise Kaplan, an extraordinary LEGAL NOTICE NIWSPAPIR ADVIRTISIMINT On Application of Alvin N.

Mr. Kaplan was interested not only in having the manuscript checked for grammatical mis takes and accuracy. He engaged in voluminous correspondence and personal visits with author ities in the U. S. Department of Fisheries in Washington to see that all his scientific data were correct. Then the historical facts were researched and checked out. The book turned out as a mag nificently prepared volume with color plates—rare for the mid- Thirties, marvelous charts scien tific and legendary as befitted the esoteric world of the imagi native fishermen, thick and beautifully printed and illustrat- ed. ’ ' - Moise Kaplan’s "Big Game Fishermen’s Paradise” never be came a best seller, It wasn’t that kind of book. It nevertheless proved quickly to be an author itative work in the field. Sports men and businessmen, provided you can distinguish between 1 the two, amateur and professionals alike found the material en chanting and worthwhile, often with practical ideas and sug gestions. Certainly it placed into graphics much that existed in folklore and legend and for this reason the book has literary merit even. It was a boast for the rapidly expanding world of deep sea fishing. Especially in , Florida. How it happened that this At lantan authored the book is quite a story. The beginning was perhaps in the mid-Twenties, when he and his young wife Florence moved to Miami to make their home and engage in real estate busi ness. Things looked up until the mid-Nineteen Twenties. Then the real estate bubble burst and in 1925 a terrible hurricane shook the daylights out of the apartment where the Kaplans were living and killed so many people in the Miami vicinity the exact number never became known.

Mr. Kaplan entered the in surance business and did quite well. He found that his hobby, deep sea fishing furnished a fascinating sports ground for en tertaining and signing up policy prospects. Many insurance peo ple find the golf links an af fable place for such matters. Certainly a golf course is more ubiquitous but hardly aa glam- rous as deep sea fishing. Apparently the idea worked well and Mr. Kaplan flourished in his work, qualifying for the Million Dollar Round Table on numerous occasions. As he moved into the 1930s, he decided to place his experi ences and observations on fish- Dr. Lieberman Retires From tag into a small pamphlet. It was gobbled up by the Florida State Chamber of Commerce. A reprint at state expense was exhausted. They asked him to expand the initial work into a larger work. This is how the idea of the book was initiated and grew. It is recorded somewhere that for every hour spent fishing, an extra hour is added to a per son’s life. And so it seemed tor Moise Kaplan. He had the very spec ial flair of making people feel uplifted and blithe against the gloom of everyday problems. This special knack he used to good purposes, as for instance the creation of a Korean War Orphanage and other worthwhile efforts. The Jewish Home in At lanta waa a special project of his and he left them a bequest that will help in the current building program. ’ - - i He was a native of Atlanta and was a veteran of World War I. He had been a long-time sup porter of B’nai B'rith and a member of the Temple. The yean of his life stretched out one after another until they had reached 77 and Hie years of his married life close to 49, On Thursday, June 25, he died. Graveside services were con ducted June 26 at Crest Lawn Cemetery by Rabbi Jacob Roths child. Besides his widow, Mr. Kap lan ia survived by a brother Ben Kaplan of Atlanta and several nieces and nephews. Mr. Kaplan’s father, Nathan A. Kaplan, was one of the pio neers of Ahavath Achim Syn agogue. He was president tor the 1892-1893 term. Neal Pope Ford in DeKalb U S.
