interested in piscatorial events These
entertainments will consist principally
Of moving pictures of fish, their propa-

where the angler is shown landing his
prize.
Admission to these entertainments is
free, but by ticket only. Any one de-

from one of the sporting goods stores
or from some member of the associa-

the Biological Survey and from the Ford
Motor Co. G. c. Leach chief of the
division of fish culture of the Bureau OF
Fisheries, has promised to be on hand
and to explain the pictures as they are
shown.
Charles A. Burmeister. the new presi-

only to revive interest in his association,

He said there are a great number of
