Codfishing Prospects.

TIL above heading was placed at the head
OF an article received from Arthur Thornton
which reads as follows: Whether there will
be any great run of big Goldfish at the Chol-
era Banks or not IL an open question but up
to date results have been generally poor at
the Cholera Banks, the inshore grounds
yielding much better.
Both grounds were fished last Sunday by
Wreck Lead and Sheepshead Bay boats, bur
the catches were not large although the
weather was Ideal. Most Of the fish taken
ran from to is pounds. Capt. George Will
son says that II the weather Keeps open we
may still have a chance at those big fellows
that you reel up slowly and that take n
strong man 20 haul aboard with the gaff.
"In the meantime II seems about time for
Capt. Jake Martin to try out the Farms II
he has not already done so. There are quite
n lot Of us waiting TO get crack at the big
cunners, with the possibility OF hooking into
n big cod or pollock. or maybe few big
blacks. What does Capt. Jake say?''
A. G. ST. George OF Freeport telephoned on
Tuesday that the Selnada had come ashore
at his place on Sunday with 20 cod and
these had been taken by flfty-four men. The
fish were taken very early and then they
stopped biting. one OF these fish was nearly
30 pounds and the average ran between and
IL pounds.
On Monday on the selnada was the weekly
party from Port Washington and these
twenty-four men brought Ia 70 cod They
tried out the inshore grounds without success
and then went or TO the Cholera grounds
whore the fish were taken. Tom Allen, the
popular game warden was conspicuous by
his absence, but HIS brother John came along
as n substitute. Incidentally John showed
the boys something, for not only did he catch
the most cod but he gathered IN the largest
one. John went back TO Port washington
with his pockets bulging with money, for he
won both pools The boys say he r. going TO
divide with Tom.
Capt. Carman says n now run OF cod Is
now here and they are smaller.

minor sports
The football receipts were st15.-
600 and the expenses 100000, while
there was a profit Of $4,000 In base
ball. The total receipts for the year
were Si6S,000, but all this sum. in
Guiding the pront OF $4,000 from
football and baseball, was used by the
III. ~ a. There was an outlay Of
about $4,000 on grounds and per-
manent equipment, but none on the
stadium, which was paid for before
the war.
IL cost Harvard $50. 900 to conduct
the Crimson's rowing, and the track
team was operated al a loss OF about
$4,000 The report shows that the
Harvard a. A. spent $4,000 more
than was received during the three
war years. while last seasons general
deficit was about $4,000 more than
that Of 1gl5-lg16.
The football receipts for last fall
arc not included in the report Just

ALL AMERICA MEN
SELECTED BY CAMP
East Places Twenty one
Among Thirty-three Stars
of Football.

Eastern college football players still
form the backbone of the All-America
teams selected by Walter Camp for the
season Of 1920. In his selections. an
ncunced in the current issue of Golfers
Weekly, the veteran football expert
names thirty-three players grouped in
first. second and third teams. OF this
number twenty-one are from the East.
seven from the Middle West. three from
southern colleges and two from the
Pacific coast.
In his Introduction Mr.. Camp gives
an outline of the necessary requisites
for a player who measures up to an
All-America standard. citing Keck, the
Princeton tackle as an example. His
article in part is as follows:
The All-America team OF 1920 repre-
sents far greater breadth of ability
on the part Of every one Of it's men,
bers than any team ever before Sc
lected The startling development Of
the game has put additional require
ments on each individual position, and
this condition has reached a limit to-
day undreamed Of by the general rank
and file and only appreciated by the
coaches and experts throughout the
country. Perhaps IL is only fair TO
give some idea of this, so that the aver
age layman may understand what II
means 10 be an AllAmerica man today.
Taking an individual man in posi-
don as an example OF this, there is no
better illustration than Stanley Keck,
tho Princeton tackle Here was tackle
who in his two big games showed the
following qualifications: In the first
place. nc had the usual earmarks OF
a strong player in the position. namely,
ability 10 handle himself well, to break
through. TO tackle. TO lead n line buck
or a play that went between the tackle
and guard. 20 aid an end and sometimes
TO beat him in getting down the held
under kicks.
"Then. in addition. Keck hurried the
forward passer as we'll as the kicker
he was a long. distance placement kicker
a goal kicker of accuracy. and many
with one or two comparatively light men
in his back field he helped bear their
burdens in a measure where they were
forced to come up against weight and
mower one added element was that oil
shiftiness his ability TO move on de-
fence from one side of the line TO the
other. according as unbalanced lines re-
ouired greater power TO meet tho charge
"Je met the Harvard charges. nc
shifted TO meet formation plays. ne
broke through and hurried the passer
and the kicker. and finally brought
about a touchdown by blocking the
Harvard punt In the Yale game he
did ell these things. with the exception
OF blocking of a punt. and in addition
scored one field goal from placement
lift the crossbar with another and acted
as interferer Tor Lourie's run for O
touchdown around the end. This is 2
typical illustration Of the possibilities OF
a single position under the modern
game
From this Il Is easy 70 sec that
few indeed Of the positions on the All
American team this year were made
without struggle. But in spite Of the
fact that competition for almost every
position was keen up 20 the end of the
season It has been possible to reach a
final and conclusive decision

Tom Mcnamara Likely to
CAPTAIN "PrO" Golf Team
Executive Committee of P G. A. Selects First List Of
Thirty Players as Preliminary Work on Invasion
of British Links by American Experts
BY KERR N. PETRIE.

Another forward step in the big pro-
fessional invasion of the British links
contemplated for next season was taken
yesterday when at a special meeting OF
the national executive committee of the
professional Golfers Association. held N
the offices OF the organization, $3.50 Fifth
avenue, list of names of about thirty
players was selected, from which the
team of ten or fifteen men to go abroad
later will be chosen.
While the list includes the cream of
the homebreds. 1t also contains many of
the resident stars, who began their play
Ing on Scottish. English or Irish links.
Several of these, like Jock Hutchinson of
Glen View. Chicago. the p G. A. and
Western open champion. have completed
their naturalization. while others are
heading that way. That the team that
goes abroad will be composed of Ameri-
cans in the spirit has been one of the
first consideration of the p. G.. A. Before
becoming eligible for selection the for
eign born player will have to prove TO
the satisfaction of the officials of the
national body that he has resided not
less than five years in the United States
and that he has also made declaration of
his intention to become a citizen, mean
ing that he has at least taken out first
papers of citizenship.
Among the p. G.. A. officials who at
tended the meeting and aided in the
work of selection were George Sargent.
Columbus. Ohio, the president William
Ogg of Atlanta. Wilfrid Reid Of Will
mington, Jack Hobens of Huntington

tive committee absent was George Nc

ton as member of the team. ques-
tionnaire also will be included This
the pro" will have to fill UP and return
u headquarters signed, sealed and deliv-
cred. Providing all questions are an
swered satisfactorily. and granted also
that the individual meets all the other
requirements, the form will be filed
ready for reference when it is known
for certain how many are required for
the team and the moment for the actual
selection arrives.
Whichever of the others are selected,
II was made clear that Tom Mcnamara
is a certainty II only he says the word
Tom has been suggested as the captain
of the invaders. while Sargent, Fother-
ingham or Mclean will act in the
capacity of vice-captain. Needless to
say, McNamaras selection is a wise
move. He has to commend him both
the fact that he is a homebred and that
nc has made several trips to the other
side of the Atlantic Ocean, both on bust
ness and as a contender for the British
open championship.
Suggest Mcnamara nv Captain.
But. while he knows the ropes" that
is not ali that can be said for Nc
golf, he is moreover one of the stars of
the homebred ranks. Further than
that. his quiet and unassuming person.
ality peculiarly fits him for a position
where tact rather than golfing ability is
the prerequisite. For let it not be for
gotten that the winning of the British
crown is not all there is to the proposed
trip abroad. The =. G. A. is hopeful
that one of it's number will come back

but it is not overlooking the magnificent
opportunity which is offered for the
strengthening of relations between the
American and British associations.
Acting on the instructions of the ex-
ecutive committee Alex Pirle will at an
early date write to the secretary Of the
British p. G.. A. outlining more fully the
American plans and conveying the
feeling of the American organization,
which is that the visit of the team and
consequent opportunity for free inter-
change of views will result in further
strengthening the bonds of friendship
between the professional linksmen Of
this country and the United Kingdom.
Among the other business taken up at
the meeting was that relative to the
employment of a paid secretary, "A sug-
gestion that was made the matter of
two years ago and which ever since has
been under discussion. Beginning in a
