Dear Mr.Spalting,

you need the keyword "SYMBOLSCALE" which defines a scale from which the 
symbols and labels become bigger.

An example:

LAYER
   NAME 'Linie'
   DATA 'shape'
   STATUS ON
   TYPE Line
   MAXSCALE 1000
   SYMBOLSCALE 750
METADATA
  WMS_SRS 'epsg:31493'
  WMS_TITLE 'Linie'
  WMS_FEATURE_INFO_MIME_TYPE 'text/html'
END
PROJECTION
      	'init=epsg:31493'
END
   CLASSITEM 'item'
      CLASS
       NAME 'Grenze_x'
       EXPRESSION /^xxx/
       SYMBOL 'line'
       SIZE 1
       COLOR 0 0 0
      END  # CLASS
END # END LAYERFILE

Greetings from Bonn,

Till
