No man is hero in the eyes OF his
valet, and the same is almost always
true of an athlete in the eyes of his
coach. Tootell is something of an
exception to this rule, however for
to Johnny Magee, the Bowdoin track
and. field mentor, this lusty young
giant represents the ideal type of
athlete. Magee has said so publicly,
and he probably will say 1T many
times in the future. for he isn't afraid
that such comment will turn the head
of his former charge.
II have never known a cleaner liv-
ing or more modest athlete" Magee
says when he allows his enthusiasm
for Tootell to bubble out in words of
praise. HE always is first-class
physical condition, and never since /
have known him has he refused to
listen to words of advice concerning
possible Improvement in his work.
You might think an intercollegiate
and national champion would begin to
feel that he was good enough to di-
rect his own efforts without any out
side advice, but Tootell still is as
open to counsel as he was when he
first came to Bowdoin."
When this siN-foot two-inch cham
pion entered Bowdoin he weighed 205
pounds. but he didn't know anything
OF the technique of throwing the ham
mer. He was so modest a youngster

Many millions of small game fish

a shame the way big majority of

they are under the legal size limit
or because they belong to a variety
which cannot at that time be kept.

Do not tear your fish off the hook.
