CHAMPION ON TROUT
Fish and Game Superintendent Re-
ports Few Catches.

John NJ. Champion, superintendent
of fish and game, said Monday that the
swollen condition of the brooks and
streams was making trout fishing at
present very difficult. This was par
ticularly true of the southern part of
the state. He had heard, however, of
successful fishing since the season
opened on April 1. The most success
full fishing SO far was in Meriden. Su-
oerintendent Champion would not be
surprised if the trout fishing this year
should not prove satisfactory. Auto
mobiles enabled more people than ever
before to go into the country and
reach the trout streams
