Story at Trial

Flat denial that Lieutenant Com

disastrous flight that resulted in
fourteen deaths was made to the
Colonel William Mitchell court

mander C. e. Rosendahl, senior
surviving officer Of the airship.
nsdowne did not protest the
flight as planned said Rosendahl,
a prosecution witness.
This direct contradiction of testi-

shortly after General De Rivera left

The members of the new cabinet
have been drawn almost entirely
from a group known as the
Patriotic Union. Most Of them have

General de Rivera told the Inter

rigid censorship of all newspapers

CASTING THE FLY

Continued from page two)
pendicular position. This is what is
termed the retrieve. This motion
should bring the line backward
smartly enough to straighten it out
behind you, and with sufficient force
to bend the tip of the rod slightly
backward. Right here is where the
resiliency of the rod comes into play.
If it has proper resilieney it will
tend to assume its normal position
quickly. Advantage must be taken
of this characteristic to obtain the
forward cast. AS soon as the line
has Strengthened out rearward and
while the tip is still bent in that di-
rection bring the rod forward by an
other snap of the wrist, stopping the
rod on its downward journey ct an
angle of forty-fve degrees. In per-
forming this last movement, it is
perfectly proper to depress slightly
the forearm. The tendency will be
at first to "kill it." Remember that
your rod is thing of life and that
it is perfectly willing and able to do
more than its part Of the operation
if you will but let it. Very little
muscular effort is needed. Two slight
twists of the wrist will accomplish
far more than the greatest of exar-
else of the biceps muscle. If the
line insists on dropping in coil a
few feet in front of the rod tip do
not be discouraged. Every fly caster
has gone through the same stage of
development. Practice this until
your fly will settle lightly to the
ground while the line IS still in the
air. Bear in mind, you have not
mastered the short cast until it is
done without muscular effort, with
out bring the rod re award any
further than at an angle of forty
five degrees, until the fly lights
lightly in advance of the settling of
the line, and with the arnt remaining
continuously at the side. If it is
found difficult to keep the arm in this
position, practice the cast with
book held under the arm. While any
one can master the cast with prac-
tice, it will be found that proficiency
will come only after much con
sciencious effort. Keep at it until the
saort cast has been mastered before
attempting to Use longer line.
FleXfbility of muscle, and not rigid
ity, should be the key note. 1t is
well to have some one, not necessar-
lily fly caster, watch your actions
in order to correct you if you carry
the rod too far to the rear in the re-
trieve, or back cast. The necessity
of obtaining the proper form at this
period of development cannot be too
strongly impressed. 1t spells the
difference between mediocrity and
artistry. Improper form is seldom
corrected once it has been firmly

grounded. Like other vices, the
habit is not easily broken, although
very quickly formed. If the line
does not straighten out well on the
forward cast, it will be found that
you are making one Of two errors.
Either the line is not being brought
back sharply enough on the retrieve,
or not enough time is being given for
the line to straighten out on the
back cast before the forward cast is
begun. Work on this until it is done
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS intuition indi-
Gates the proper time for the begin
ming of the forward cast. If the
line strikes the ground in advance of
the fly, it is because of the fact that
the tip is being depressed too much
en- the forward cast. Stopping the
tip sharply when at an angle of
forty-fve degrees will hold the line
up until the fly has hit the water, af-
ter which the line will settle softly.
These two errors are the ones most
commonly found among fly casters.
However, if one will work carefully
with diligence he will shortly de-
velope the short cast to such de-
gree that he will never have future
trouble. After the short cast is
mastered, the use of longer line
comes very easy.

The death last Thursday of Sen
ator Robert M. La Toilette, Wiscon-
sins most famous political leader,
came as a great shock to multitude
of friends and admirers the country
over. Fighting Bob backed some
of the best and most far reaching
reforms in state and national legis-
lation, and his power of oratory and
aggressive spirit won recognition
wherever he waged his fight. Friend
and political foe respected Robert M.
La Toilette as a man of splendid in
tellect, an orator of superb power,
and fighter for his ideals.
o
During the past five years The
Journal has repeatedly urged a
change in the penalty for careless
automobile driving and has suggest
ed the arrest of the car rather than
the imposing of a fine upon the driv-
er or owner. In weekend trips COW
ering about a thousand miles of Wis
consin and Minnesota highways this
month we have seen scores of wrecks
and not more than one out of each
dozen or so but what were caused
directly or indirectly by desire on
the part of some driver to "show off"
his alleged skill at the wheel. With
the chance of having his car jailed
for term Of from 80 days to all
season the fool driver would be apt
to perform less foolishly.
