FISHING SEASON
BEGINS; BAGBY
AND TERRY FIRST
Moody Durham, Game Warden,
Explains Provisions Of New
Statute to All Corners
ROD AND LINE LICENSES

The fishing season is here.
Almost here, anyway. If the
expected warm weather comes
the sport will be in full swing
before the end of the month.
Angling has a new prestige
in Chapel Hill now, because the
villages greatest angler is
mayor. His Honor, Zeb P. Coun-
ell, has been, ever since his old
est acquaintance can remember,
a devoted wielder of the hook
and line. Just as Roosevelt ele-
waited tennis in the esteem of
the world, and Taft golf, so does
Council exalt the status of fish
ing in Chapel Hill. If a munich
pal coat of arms were designed
during the present administra-
tion, the artist would be direct
ed to make the principal figure
spotted bass rampant.
English Bagby, professor of
psychology in the University,
has brought a catch of bass from
Haw river, and so has j. M. Ter
ry, the barber Roulhac Hamil-
ton is usually one of the earliest
fishermen, but he has been so
busy scouting around the state
for old manuscripts and diaries
that this spring he has neglected
his favorite sport. Oscar Coffin
has been seduced away by the
charms of golf, thereby aiding
Governor MacLean in the effort
to keep some fish in North Caro-
lima for future generations.
Moody Durham, the Orange
county game warden, is one of
the men now most interested in
fishing-not in catching 'em, but
in diffusing information about
when and under what condi-
tions other people may catch
'em. For, the game law enacted
by the last legislature has it's

Good Bill Next Week

liners are John Barrymore and
Douglas Fairbanks.
Barrymore appears Monday
in 1.-THE Beloved Rogue" a story
of the immortal vagabond, Fran
co.'s Villon. In the screen play
by Paul Bern, Barrymore is
seen loving 'em and leaving 'em
in the Paris of Louis XII. The
strife between King Louis and
the Duke of Burgundy figures in
the play.
Douglas Fairbanks appears in
"Gaucho" Thursday and Fri
day. He has the role of a ban
dit chief, the leader of a horde
of Gaucho riders who cross a
South American range Of noun
tains and occupy a stately
shrine city. He does a lot of the
famous Fairbanks riding and
acrobatic stunts.

Reed to Speak Tuesday
United States Senator Accepts Invi-
tatiOn of the Tar Heel

Senator James A. Reed of
Missouri, a candidate for the
Democratic nomination for
President of the United States,
will speak in Memorial Hall at
3 P. M. next Tuesday, March 27.
He comes in response to an
invitation from the student
newspaper, the Tar Heel. The
editors invited each of the lead
ing candidates of both parties
either to appear here in person
or to be represented by an ad-
herent who would speak for
him. SO far Senator Reed is the
only candidate who has agreed
to come.
In his speeches recently his
chief topic has been the corrup-
ton in the Republican party.
He has a record as a staunch
anti-prohibitionist, but since he
announced his candidacy he has
not "paramounted" alcohol. His
theme may be briefly described
by the familiar battle cry, Turn
the rascaIs outp' His chair
manship of the Senate commit
tee that investigated campaign
contributions gave him the OPP
portunity to get a great deal of
authentic information about the
way the campaign chests were
filed.
In the war period he was a
thoroughgoing antagonist of
Woodrow Wilson, and from the
beginning he has opposed this
country's entrance into the
League of Nations.

Timely Passing of Mr.. Winston
And Miss Daggett Causes Prompt
Conquest of Fire at CaldwellS'

went leaping upstairs in search
of the two children, and one of
them brought down Teddy and
the other Bobby, both of whom
had gone to bed.
Meanwhile the alarm had
been turned in. The man at
headquarters did not waste a
second in getting the engine out.
Il was in the printshop when
the siren sounded, and by the
time could get my coat on and
come down the steps to my car,
the engine was roaring down
Rosemary lane). There was lit
tie difficulty in putting out the
fire. The loss was perhaps four
or five hundred dollars. Two
tables, antiques, were badly dam
aged.
AS soon as the children were
safe and the engine had come,
George Winston went up to the
Infirmary and had dressings put
on his burned hands. When he
appeared on the street next day
they were concealed in bandages.
Mr.. and Mrs. Caldwell were
visiting the Carrots when the
fire occurred. Mr.. Caldwell
called his home on the telephone
at about nine O'Clock and asked
his older son if the fire in the
living room was all right. The
boy said yes, it was; but after
he left the telephone just before
going to bed, he decided to make
it all Fighter still by putting on
some more wood. A spark flew
out, over the fender, and lit the
overstuffed chair.

George Winston was escorting
Miss Bitsy Daggett home from
a visit, shortly before eleven
o'clock Tuesday evening, and
they were walking through the
alley that leads from Rosemary
lane to the Daggett home on the
main street.
A light, much too bright for
the glow from a fireplace, shone
in the window of the living room
of the Caldwell home.
THAT place is on fret" ex-
claimed George.
A closer look made him sure
of it. While Miss Bitsy ran to
her home to turn in the fire a.
larm, he dashed across the Cald-
well lawn, up the steps to the
porch, and through the front
door. A big overstuffed arm
chair was ablaze. He tried to
push it out through the door, but
it jammed in the opening. While
the flames scorched his hands
he showed and turned the chair
this way and that, but it was
too wide to pass through. Then
he went to the porch and shout
ed:
Fire! Firew
From the chair, in its passage
across the floor, the couch a.
gainst the north wall had caught
fire, and then the curtains, so
that the whole room was in a
blaze.
James Ashmore, University
athletic coach, and Isaac Man
ming, Jr., were the first to re-
spond to Georges cry. They

Fullerton

Hugh s. Fullerton, the cele-
brated baseball writer, blew into
town-rather, rolled in-Thurs-
day night and he and Mrs. Full
lerton spent the rainy Friday
loafing about the village and the
campus. The dampness of the
day could not dampen his spirits,
for his is a buoyant nature that
seems to make the sun shine for
him whether or not it is shining
for anybody else.
Mr.. Fullerton is of both the
old and new era of newspaper
reporting. He started in on a
small town paper in 1893. And
ne has been in the writing game
continuously ever since. There
is no telling how many millions
of words-it may run into the
billions-he has written for the
daily papers and for magazines.
He has attacked many subjects,
but it is as a sports expert that
| he has won his greatest fame.
This man is a walking ency-
clopedia of sport. And a bio
graphical dictionary unabridged,
He knows every baseball player
of any consequence in the coUn-
try, not merely by name, but
through personal acquaintance,
and knows where all of them
were born, where they got their
early training, and on what
teams they played season after
season, And all the managers,
umpires, and trainers. And so
with hundreds of coaches and
players in football and other
sports.
He became disgusted with
baseball seven or eight years
ago, when the selling-out scan
dial broke, and has had little to
do with the game since. He tells
an amusing story on himself in
connection with this scandal.
Long before others suspected
anything wrong he heard that
