TWENTY-FIVE PIcKEREL
Taken from One Hole in the Ice.

Catching twenty-five pickerel out of
one hole in the ice Is considered going
some. but the feat has been accom-
phshed by John Casey, Charles Thomp-
son and Ernest Thompson, and the fish
were all above the legal limit, too.
This is not a fish story about a string
taken out of q stock pond or by some
other method equally as easy as spend
ing money. The TWENTY-FIVE fish were
caught in the Five Mile river, long de-
spised as a place for the sport, and
credited as being fished to death. The
lovers of Ices fishing who have been
chasing all over eastern Connecticut
with the added expense of horse and
automobile hire in an endeavor to
bring home record beating strings will
find little consolation in this truthful
fish story.

HANSON THROWS COLLINS.
Worcester Wrestler too Strong for
Central Village Man.

Fritz Hanson of Worcester won from
Bill Collins of Central Village in
Phoenix hall tonight with two straight
falls.
Hanson got the first on a neck scis-
sors in % minutes and the second with
a crotch hold and a half hammerlock
in 16 minutes. Collins was slippery as
an eel, and made a game showing,
considering his condition, after the
hard boxing bout Of the night before
with Cyclone Mack at Moosup. He
pulled out of score of tight holds
and his hard struggle for supremacy
won him generous applause. Hanson
was in the pink of condition, which
means that Collins was up against a
hard proposition.
The preliminaries were between Kid
Van BonCoeur of Putnam, who put
Joe Breault of the same town on the
mat in 9 minutes, and between Peter
Magnan of Putnam and Major Desau-
telles of Grosvenordale, the latter pair
going 10 minutes without a fall. H
Magnan of Putnam was referee.
