Big Ones

After being reported missing off the coast of Maine on his 110-ft. yacht Ajax, Jabish Holmes Jr. of New York, grandson of the late Charles Fleischmann (yeast), turned up safely. His story: fishing seven miles off shore he and his friends had hooked a "700-lb." horse mackerel (tuna) which towed them far to sea, kept them up all night, then got away.

If fishes tell about the big ones they get away from, Jabish Holmes's tuna could truthfully tell a tall story. Jabish ("Horse Mackerel") Holmes Jr., onetime Harvard footballer and hockey goalguard, is six feet in length, has attained a size some four feet around the middle, would weigh easily 250 lb. on his own fish scales.
