Bids Opened On
New Fish Reels
For Texas Coast
Austin, Jan. 16. — Texas
coastal fishermen" this spring
will have three full-sized ar-
tificial reefs, with contracts
being let in Austin this Week
for their construction. An-
nouncement of the successful
bidders was made by the
fiscal director of the Game
and Fish commission.
. The two new reefs are in
the vicinity of Freeport and
Port Isabel. This contract
goes to Crosby Party Boats,
Inc., for $18,191.25 -each. The
reefs are to be constructed
with 600 old car bodies each.
They will be laced together
with steel cable, and each
unit of not more than six
bodies will contain a 50
pound “sinker.”
A contract for adding 400
additional car bodies to the
Port Aransas reef was
awarded to Smith Brothers.
This firm built the original
reef there last June.
Work is expected to get un-
derway as soon as possible.
Fantastic fishing results re-
ported from the small reef
near Port Aransas brought
the demand of fishermen for
the additional reefs in the
off-shore waters.

FOR SPACIOUSNESS—-Want to make a small room seem
larger? Use some of these decorating tricks. Pastel or light-
colored walls, rugs, and fabrics give the illusion of additional
space,'as do scenic windows or mirrors. Furniture, like the
attractive French Provincial pieces in the photo, should be
scaled to the size of the room. The Simmons sofa also has
slim, trim lines, is equipped with a cotton-cushioned mattress
for double-duty use as a bed.
