two In the shells under the supervision
of Coach AL Treloar. Although the
boys have only been able to journey to
Naples twice a week they have put In
the intervening time in the gymnasium
and have had daily workouts on the
rowing machines. Coach Treloar has
had the rowers begin with the first
lessons of rowing, which has caused
them to lose some of their old-time
rythm, but as the coach said: "They
will improve wonderfully as soon as
they get onto the lessons.
The noon gymnasium classes are
daily growing larger, and yesterdays g
surpassed any previous class in size
that has been on the floor this month.
Physical Instructor AL Treloar put the
members through an unusually stiff
drill. but they did not seem to mind it
In the least.

Angeles was among the fishermen who
went to the harbor and from boat
caught four croakers in about one
hours fishing.
Robert Campbell passed Sunday at
croakers, four china croakers and nine

Most of the fishermen who went to
San Pedro last Sunday located In the
vicinity of the cannery and were well
rewarded, as the fish seem to stay
close to the factory to get the scraps
that are elected therefrom. In the
party were Grimes, Roberts and Davis,
who were enabled to catch numerous
croakers and bass
c. Nelson of Los Angeles passed Sum
day morning at San Pedro. Fishing
from the breakwater, he caught six
croakers within an hour.

catch consisted Of thirty-four surf.

house yesterday received eight cases
of Winchester rifles from the east. So
great has been the demand for arms

and ten more to follow by freight.
Local sporting men will be interested
to know that Harry Slotterbeck, for
many years proprietor of the III. Slot

It is safe to say that in no county

states does the sale Of hunting licenses
amount to one-half those sold in Los
Angeles county. During the months
OF July, August and September the to-
tai sale of licenses in Los Angeles
county were 9075. From these sales the
county receives 81 for each license. ex-
cept when they are sold to aliens or
non-residents. An alien is charged $40
for q license to shoot protected game,
while a nonresident Is charged $40.
Only one $25 license has been sold this
