give you common ‘fishing fever’ which has struck many
people lately. Here Raymond Miller and Earl Barber hold
part of the fine catch they made last week end. It contains
58 pounds of catfish, bream and shellcrackers; and they
caught thpm in La’ke Seminole after putting in at Dunn’s

on the Lake in recent days, though not all of them did as
well as Miller and Baiiber.
