On it is printed an imperial edict
issued in 1898 by the Empress
Dowager of China,
It reads: "As newspapers only
serve to excite the masses to sub-
vert the present order of things
and the editors concerned are
composed of the dregs of the li-
terary . classes, no good can be
served by the continuation of
such dangerous instruments, and.

He Goes Fishing.
With a Kite!
Visitors to Hemsby, near Cais-
ter, Norfolk, are astonished to
find an enthusiastic angler catch-
ing large fish by standing on the
beach and flying a kite,
Mr Stephen Chaney, owner of
holiday chalets and bungalows,
fishes for, a hobby, and his un-
usual methods, practised with a
strong wind ,blowing offshore,
sometimes bring him a catch of
twenty codlings in a few hours.
Prize specimens usually tip the
scales at from seven to nine
pounds. His technique has em-
erged after long and often dis-
appointing experiments. B u t
helped by his fisherman-brother,
Mr. Walter Chaney, he stuck to
his notion that, by using a kite
to carry' a baited line a fair dis-
tance out to sea, he could fish
from any non-rocky coastline in
weathers unsuitable for any small
boat to put to sea.
So, even .in stormy weather, he
could catch fish beyond the wild-
est dreams of ordinary anglers.
He has built himself a number
of kites, varying diagonally from
3ft. 9in. to 5ft. He flies them
singly, or, if the going is espe-
cially rough, in series.
His kite carries a baited line,
which he releases as he decides.
And, due to the nylon cord, con-
trolled by his beach winch, the
kite can be flown three-quarters
of a mile out at sea.
The secret of this novel tech-
nique lies in his method of at-
tachikg lead ,weights, hooks and
line to his kite cord. They are
carried about 100-yArds behind
the' kite:' ee.e.
His problem for a long time
was how to drop„,them into the
sea, Now, by tying them to the
nylon cord with wool,, he has no
difficulty in bringing, about the
required "drop." ,
Shortly after • the kite reaches
its mark, the strain put by the
fishing line-,op; tljf wool fastening
may break it, Or, If the wool is
-at all obstinate, Mr. Chaney
merely gives his nylon cord a
Powettell jerk or two, and away
she goes, for his baited hooks to
plunge into the sea below,
He winches in his kite, but
hauls in his fishing line by hand.
Ile gets exciting sport in all
weathers.

In Israel. It Contains, with few
exceptions, all the animals and
birds mentioned in the Bible,
k;a ch cage and aviary bears the
appropriate Biblical quotation in
both English and. Hebrew.
For instance, from life Song of
Solomon it. 15, comes: "Take us
the foxes, the little fone.s that
Spoil the vines,"
And, beyond this plaque are
the foxes, leaping about,
The eagle is on show, together
with its mention in Ezekiel xvii,
3: "A great eagle with great
wings, longwinged, full of feath-
ers, which had divers colours."
There, too, are "VVolve; raven-
ing the prey" (Ezekiel xxii. 27),
and a lion whose cage has this
inscription from Proverbs xxx.
30: "A lion which is the strongest
among beasts, and turneth not
away for any."
Finding a safe place in Jerusa-
lem for this novel zoo proved a
most difficult and hazardous task.
It was first situated near the
present border between the Arab
and Jewish parts of the Holy
The tension, danger from

Condon Zoo!,
The Biblical Zoo is nOW spread
over about twenty, pPaceftibacres•
of wooded lea on a slope of the
highest hill in Jerusalem, where
there-are many natural caves and
cock formations.
But the collectors have had
several other big headaches. . .
About 13,0,, .different creatures
are mentioned in the Old Testa-
ment, Some were very hard to
Identify, either because origin-:
ally they had two or more names,
or because the same name, was
used far more than one animal.
Also, words-and their meanings
tend to change as time passes.
Then, of course, Some of the
birds and animals referred to in
the Bible are extinct, These have
been replaced by their closest liv-
ing relations.
An Indian leopard has been
substituted-for the local variety,
exterminated in Palestine before
the 1939-45 war; and an African
ostrich, for the long-dead Syrian
bird.
Other creatures which have
died out in Israel have had to be
imported. Two Syrian - type
brown bears, obtained from the
London Zoo, have been breeding
prolifically in their natural sur-
roundings, Red deer and fallow
deer have also come from Britain
-the former from the Duke of
Bedford's Woburn Abbey Estate,
Roe deer have had to be brought
from Belgium, and Barbary
sheep, once common in Palestine,
have been acquired from. Hol-
land. At the time of writing, only
three more animals are needed
for a full house. They are the
Arabian oryx, the hippopotamus
and the white-nosed antelope.
As well as animals and birds,
the Jerusalem Zoo will soon con-
tain many of the plants, trees and
crops mentioned in the Bible.
It is hoped, too, to build an
aquarium, although it is unlikel-
ly that there will be room in it
for Jonah's whale!
Another feature is the recon-
struction of Biblical events in
which animals played a big part,
such as Noah's Ark.

The occasion called for a big
celebration, and the little man
provided it. At a caviar, steak,
and champagne dinner for nearly
70 sportswriters and friends in
New York, jockey Eddie Arcaro
announced his retirement. "Ev-
eryday-riding,got to be a terrible
bore for me last summer," the
host said. "But you can't just
ride'the celebrities on Saturdays.
Hell; if you're not going to com-
pete regularly, get out,"
Before getting out at 46, Arcaro
earned more than $3 million in 31
years and established himself as
the greatest jockey of all time.
Among his records: total purses
of $30,039,543 (4,779 victories in
24,092 U.S, races), victories in
five Kentucky Derbies, six
Preakness Stakes, and six Bel-
mont Stakes,, •and two Triple
Crown championships (Whirla-
way in 1941 and Citation in 1948).
"Eddie's, the greatest rider we've
ever had," rival Willie Shoe-
`maker said last month. "He Was
the king. He could do everything
better than the rest of us-switch
sticks, get a horse out eof the
gate, move him around the
track. And hi the stretch, no-
t body could beat him."
Arcaro, a Scotch - sipping,
straight-talking millionaire, does
not deny his skills. "I feel like
I'm leaving on top," he said,
smiling. "I don't believe I've been
America's premier rider for the
last three or four years, but for
ten years (1948 to 1958), I didn't
think anybody could touch me."
- The son of a taxi-fleet owner,
Arcaro grew up in Southgate,
Ky., quit school after the, eighth
grade and continued his educa-
tion at race tracks. In the rugged
period before film patrols, when
tugging saddlecloths of other
horses and leg-locking other
jockeys were common, 108-
pound, 5-foot-3 Arcaro became a
wild rider, At Chicago's Wash-
ington Park in 1933, he fell off
his mount, Gun Fire, was
trampled, and suffered a broken
nose, punctured lung, and frac-
tured skull. At New York's Aque-."
duct in 1942, he was suspended
for a year for rough riding
against Cuban jockey Vincent
Nodarse. "I was on undefeated
Occupation and trying •to take
him back when Nodarse cut me
off," Arcaro recalled. "When I
rode tip to Nodarse, I tried to
tear down that whole fence with
him. Naturally, the steward call-
ed foul and asked me if I tried
to put Nodarse over the fence
deliberately.' 'Deliberately?'
yelled. 'I was trying to kill that
s.o.b.!' "
Now a father of two college
students, a homeowner in Gar-
den City, N.Y„ and a golfer in
the 70s, Arcaro has mellowed
His major disappointment: Not
winning a sixth Derby, "I came
close a couple of times," Arcaro
said. "On' the other hand, I
shouldn't have won on Lawrin in
'38. As for the reste of them
(Whirlaway, 1041; Hoop jr,, 1945;
Citation, 1948; and Hill Gail,
1952), I was on real gangbusters."
The greatest horse of them all?
"Hell, I'd never pick that,"
said Arcartr, the master. "No
horse Who evet lived would run
any fester than Nashua, but he
put the gray hairs on my head.
He always had to make the easy
races tough. Citation, Kelso, and

Meter, Maids Make
Much More Moola
Nobody was absolutely certain
that the introduction 5f meter
maids in Baltimore would pro-
vide tighter enforcement, in-
crease revenues and free able-
bodies policemen for more de-
manding jobs, But the uniformed
girls had done all these things in
other cities and it seemed likely
they could do the same here,
They have.
A mere ten of them, patrolling
only half the meters in the city,
have boosted summonses for
parking violations phenomenally.
Before the ladies arrived on the
scene last. May, the monthly av-
erage for parking tickets was
6,500. Now it is 13,000. Meter col-
lections are also up, And some of
the men on the force formerly
assigned to checking parking
violations are now used for other
duties.
Not surprisingly, the head of
the traffic division is urging the
city to double this force. On the
basis of the record so far, it looks
like a profitable proposal, - The
Evening Sun (Baltimore).
