The name Of Horace Duffy will
be remembered by Eastern High
baseball players for time to come.
This Central High School pitcher
made the last year champions look
mighty weak and Central annexed
it by 6 to 2.
Duffy, as they say, was master Of
the situation. He allowed but five
well scattered hits. while the oppos-
ing pitcher, "Biggy" Quinn, pitch
ing ace of Coach Guyon, did not
fare well. Central hit his offerings
hard and timely, for nine hits.
Eastern scored their runs in the
first and third innings, while Cen.
trail registered a run each in the
first three frames, one in the fifth
and two In the eighth.

If you've ever noticed it at all,
you know that the great pitchers
are chaps who have been around
several seasons. They've had ex-
perience ana they're smart. They've
got something that a kid never can
have-that'S experience.
An infielder or an outfielder may

Fishing in both the outside and
inside waters is now under way
and will continue through until
late fall. Gray back trout or weaks,
noted for their gameness, are the
first fish to put in from the sea,
closely followed by giant boring
hardheads. The flower Of the waters,

out the monh of June, when they
disappear to come again in the
late summer. These fish, ranging
from 10 to 50 pounds, are taken
on the outside waters either by
boat fishing in the sloughs or surf
casting from the beach. Last week
witnessed the taking of the first
bass of the season and since that
time numerous catches have been
recorded.
A satisfactory outfit, one that
has proven its worth along the
ocean front in combat with the
rowing bass, consists of a 20 size
reel of best quality, which will
comfortably carry 900 feet of IL
or Is thread regular line. The rod
should be either green-hart OF
split bamboo, with two-foot
spring butt, with tip and guides OF
agate. A rod should always be
balanced as to length by the user,
giving length the preference over
shortness, which is a snake to the
caster. The hook should be OF
hand-forged O-Shaughnessy and 70
or 80 is the proper size. Piano
wire and the ringed O'Shaughnessy
hoop prevents the teeth of the bass
from grinding off the gut.

But suppose there were fifteen or
even twenty kids made good this
spring. That's not so many, when
you consider that about $50 or 500
of them made the trip South with
the major league clubs. All Of which
goes to prove that the kids face
tough proposition in baseball. It's
seldom that any youngster comes
along who can step right into the
lineup and be a star off the bat.
No sir, the kids who are burning
up the league this year aren't the
boys who made their first trip
this spring. It's the fellows who
broke in a year ago or two years
ago, and who are just now begin
ming to find themselves.
Take the Yankees for instance.
We've got the best club this year
we've had in many seasons. The
boys who make it great are Tony
Lazzeri, Mark Koenig, Lou Gehrig

them in way, but kids who have

from fan who wanted to know
what was the hardest position on
the club for rookie to break in.
That's queer question. If a
club is weak at third, or behind the
bat or in the outfield why that
position naturally is the easiest.
But all things being equal, it's the
kid pitcher who has the toughest
job.

Rarely does the channel bass
take the bait with a snap and a
rush like the striped bass or blue
fish. Like a coquette bandying
with hearts this prize fish is coy
of bats, and his first approach is
apparently an investigation as to
whether it is entirely to his liking.
Once the touch travels down the
line to the rod hand it is never
mistaken for another signal. Gent.
ly the bait is picked UP, moved a
few inches, then allowed to lie
quiet for a few seconds as If the
fish was determining or considering
the advisability Of continuing the
investigation; then a drawing mo-
ton is felt along the line. The
fish, apparently satisfied that all
is well, starts to swim away with
the bait, then the rod is brought
sharply up and the hook firmly set
in the tough leathery jaw.
This Is the moment Of supreme
anxiety, as well as joy, to the man
with the rod. Away goes the
alarmed fish; 2, 3, at last 500 feet
