ROD AND GUN NEWS
HeH WATER FOR LOCAL ANaIKRs JANUARY TO yANuAn, ~

Farms and TO the Seventeen Fathom Bank
have been quite productive.
Not many OF the boats have been making
the long trip to the Cholera Grounds OF late
because of the cold spell that set In, but
ecme OF them will no doubt 20 out there
Sunday. The Commodore ran out last Mon
day and IL was cold enough outside for
tclar bears. according To Captain Hen
Wright. They stopped at buoy number two
and picked up forty odd cod and then headed
back for the docis.. The Captain says he win
continue 20 run his boat long as the
weather permits. and that he will make trips
60 the Cholera Banks when hc thinks It
proper to do so.
Many OF the boats are running regularly
fiom Sheepshead Bay. and II Is likely that
a dozen or fftcn Of them viii be out to-
morrow. Fishermen may feel assured that
there will be plenty OF accommodations at
tieir disporal for Sunday. and that the
chances OF getting mess Of fish are In
their favor. There IL no scarcity OF bait now
because tho consumers OF II have dwindled
down to only the enthusiastic regulars, but
these are the fellows who get the fish. Some
Of the boats that are laid UP through the
week will make special Sunday trips TO ac-
ccmmodate their patrons. and there will be
n number Of them out to-day. Better make
trip for cod tomorrow, for the cold
weather may set In any day now and put
a. end 10 what has been the best cod season
H. more than twenty years.

No More War Tax for
Baseball Pass Holders

Fl those who who go into the Polo
Grounds and other ball parks
on passes. According to the revised
amusement tax law, no war tax is to
be collected on free tickets to baseball
games. boxing bouts, theatrical per-
formances or any other amusements.
However. there Is no change in so far
as the paying patrons are concerned.
Contrary to general opinion, there
still is a war tax of 10 per cent.
But. as we said. the boys with the
passes will be doubly lucky. This did
not appeal to a certain baseball Off
cial with whom we discussed the mat
er yesterday. There ought to be no
var tax for the paying patrons and
triple tax for the free guests" he de-
clared.
The removal of the tax on free
tickets Will do away with the war tax
booth at the Polo Grounds press gate
and will relieve the congestion there.

Ruth stin in the Series.

Babe Ruth hasn't got cent out Of
the world series of 1921. but he still is
talking about it. The Babe gives the
boys spiel about that series in every
town in which he shows with his vaude-
Vile act. Here's the post-mortem ne
handed out the other night in Pitts
burgh:
II would have bet my right eye last
summer that the Pirates and not the
New York Giants would be our oppc-
nents in the world series. consider
the Pirates one Of the best ball clubs
have ever played against. 1 have only
seen them play twice, both exhibition
games, but they showed me some ball
club.
I'VE never could see the Giants as
pennant winners In the National League
and were greatly surprised when they
won out. l am not handing out an alibi
for our defeat. but down in my heart l
do not think the best team won.
"McGraw's pitchers were well known
to us. and 1t was the pitching that beat
us. Phil Douglas, Art Nehf and Jesse
Barnes twirled better than they knew
how. They did not pitch such consistent
winning ball during the National League
season, and will never again perform as
they did against us.
But back again to the Pirates-we
figured all along that Pittsburgh was
the one club we would eventually meet.
and for that reason we watched the work
OF Gfbsons team very carefully during
our exhibition game and in fact the club
had scouts on Gibson's trail right along.
ITO be perfectly frank, we were count
ing on some real world series games with
the Pirates. for We feared them more
than the Giants. and I think everybody
on our club heaved a sigh of relief when
1t became apparent that McGraw's bunch
was going to cop"
We wonder. does the Babe insinuate
that the Yankees did not participate in
any REAL world series games?

INTERCITY INDOOR
TENNIS A FIXTURE
Heights Casino Donates Tro-
ply for Annual Series
With Longwood.
BY SAMUEL j. BRooKMAN.

With the donation of a trophy by the
Heights Casino of Brooklyn intercity
indoor tennis has become an annual
fixture. Strictly speaking the match Is
to be an interclub affair between
Heights Casino and the Longwood
Cricket Club Of Boston. but as these
two clubs are representative of the ten
mis- strength of the two cities the series
will have all the Importance Of open
competition.

clubs should be decidedly interesting.
According to the deed of gift, the
first Of the >intercity cup matches is to
be held on the courts of the Heights
Casino this winter. There is to be at
least one series each season. but by
mutual consent the teams may play a
home and home Saries each year. In
the latter case the total number o.
matches won. home and home, will count
as one victory for the leading team

Each series will consist of six singles
and three doubles. and not more than
twelve players may constitute team.
The presidents of the RESPECTIVE clubs
have been clothed with the power of
selecting the personnel of the teams on
each occasion. No date has been chosen
for the events. bat 1t is likely to come
early In February. There Is every in
dication that a return match will b.
held on the covered courts of Long
wood three weeks later
The Casino has just sent out invita-
tions to the leading women players in

which is to be held this year during

by Mrs. Franklin !. Mallory. the present
national champion. Last season Mrs
Mallory did not compete and the event
was won by Miss Marion Zinderstein-
now Mrs. Jessup. who has Just been
placed third on the national ranking
list. There is every indication that al
least eight Of the first fifteen In ma.
tional rank will be among the con-
tcstants.
According to word just received from
England the new stands at Wimbledon
will seat at least 10000 spectators. TIE
British tennis officials have profted by
the experience of the last two seasons,
when seats for the championships were
oversubscribed nearly 100 per cent. The
grand stand area will inclose just one
grass court instead of two as originally
