situation, and still preserve all its
natural and proper rights, by requiring
college athletes to be certified by the
proper athletic authority of the college
before each athletic contest conducted
under the auspices of the A. A. u,
thereby doing away with any theory
that such athletes while in college are
members" of the A. A. u. The stand
ards of eligibility of the A. A. u. and
its control of A. A. u. competition
would be completely Safeguarded by the
final right of the A. A. u. to withdraw
the certifying privilege from any college
for adequate cause.
1.-THE present situation inevitably sets
up conflict between the continuous
jurisdiction of college over its athletes
and an implied continuous jurisdiction
over those same athletes by the A. A. u.
We believe that the change in policy
proposed above would in no way work
to the dctriment of the A. A. U. 1t
would merely make entirely clear what
the officials of the A A. U. have recent
ly asserted, that it is not their purpose
or desire to attempt to establish control
over college athletics and college
athletes"
Registration an Issue.
COllege men are HOpAlS tAldb tllS
Amateur Athletic Union may agree to
allow college men to compete in its
meets without registration in the A. A.
U. In other words, it seems to the col
leges that the A. A. U. might we'll ac-
cept their certif1cation of the amateur
status of college athletes, whereas. at
present, when a college athlete desires
to compete in an A. A. U. event, he
must register in the A. A. U. and pay
a small fee for that registration. This
has been accepted by the colleges as a
prerogative of the A. A. u, although
the A. A. u. has to some extent modi-
fed it.
Certainly the best gesture the A. A.
U. could make toward the colleges would
be to go the limit in this particular. II
this can be taken care of and some ar
rangements more satisfactory to the
colleges for governing management and
participation of American athletes In
the Olympics can be effected, 1t is like
" that the National Collegiate Athletic
Association and Amateur Athletic
Union can cooperate pleasantly and
eficiently in the operation of the great
est system of amateur athletic compe-
tition in the whole world.

King Dayids lead 10 four games. Only
a short time ago KING David enjoyed a
lead of IL games and appeared TO have

was a week for the underdog Prac-
tically all the leading teams suffered
losses. Takoma rolled nine games and
won five of them. Congress lost five of
their six, while Osiris made the largest
gain with six wins and advanced four
full positions in the standings. Ma

A clean sweep for Centennial would
have put this lodge in tie for second
place. Hiram scored notable victory
over Petworth as did Potomac over

Barrister has been going strong lately
due to the efforts of Leo Speer. Bar
rister whitewashed Trinity. Silver
Spring was another to score a clean
sweep, Dawson being the victim.
Clarke Siegel's 375 was the best set
of the week and it was an important
factor in Osiris clean sweep over

~ OFF is full of queer contradict
tions-of freak shots and
II more freakish endings. AS
~ witness. we recall several
freakish shots that occurred
over the week end which resulted in
considerable dismay to the opponents
of their authors and no small amount
Of jubilation to the men who produced
them.
Rudolph lefty Harrell put his tee
shot in the ditch at the third hole at
the Washington Golf and Country
Club, which is very difficult par 4.
He lifted out of the ditch with a pen
atty stroke, and played 3 from 240
yards away from the green. But he
laid his ball on the putting surface.
and holed his putt for a par just
the same, winning the hole from men
who played 1t in the orthodox manner.
Robert (Bob) Eller who used to per-
form in championship fashion over the
hurdles for the Georgetown track team
some years back, played pair Of shots
at Indian Spring that would bring JOY
to the heart of any duffer. He got his
200 pounds of weight back of a pair
of wooden club shots on the 525-yard
sixteenth hole, pair of far-ranging
clcuts, which left him but two-foot
putt for an eagle 3. The ground was
soft and Eller's second shot didn't move
from where 1t struck.
Then there was the tricky shot Rob-
ert A. Dougan played yesterday at the
Washington Golf and Country Club at
the eleventh hole, where he missed his
tee shot and had a hard pitch left
over the water hazard. His ball struck
the flag staff high up near the bunting
and instead Of bouncing merrily off into
bunker or into the water ditch, it
dropped straight down, hit the edge
of the cup and lay only inches away
"A gimme as they call it out in the
nearby Virginia county.
Just a little bit later Don Wrenn
schoolboy golfer, put together pair
of wooden club shots at the par
fifteenth at Washington (which is really
par these days of slow fairways)

r INAUGURATION of the 1929 fish,
ing season took place last week
when the white perch. the tlrSt OF
our annual Spring visitors, started
their run to the swift waters OF
the Potomac around Chain Bridge.
Last Thursday several nice catches were
made by anglers, and while the majority
of the fish were small, some good size
ones were caught. The larger ones were
landed in the shallow water on the
Virginia side of the river opposite the
stone quarry.
Anglers who use the Potomac River
for their outings remember with chagrln
that this stream was clear only ABOUT
three times last Summer. Muddy water
in the Potomac is more or less expected,
especially during the month OF April.
This condition is only history repeat
ing ITSELF" but it is hoped that this
year the perch anglers will have
better opportunity to catch these fish
than they did last year.
More interest has been manifested
this year over trout fishing In Mary
land and Virginia than for some years
past. We received many inquiries
last week about trout streams in both
the above mentioned States. In Vir-
ginia 1t was learned that the majority
of the big trout streams had been
closed this year to allow them to be
restocked and that the nearest one, &C
cording to officials of the Bureau OF
Game and Inland Fisheries, is 200 miles
from Washington, located near Staun-
ton, Va, and another stream near Hot
Springs, Va.
Sam Smith, radio service man for
Goldenberg's, has informed us that he
visited his old fishing grounds in a
| mountain stream of Virginia last Sun
day and that the trout are plentiful.
| Furthermore, Smith offers to lead all
those interested to the spot, where he
promises good days catch.
According to Swepson Earl, Mary
lands conservation commissioner, Mary
| land trout streams are attracting many
anglers. The best trout streams are to
be found in Frederick County, which
| is only short run in machine from
Washington. These streams are: Hunt
| ing Greek, Fishing Creek, Tuscarora
County trout streams are Mill Run,
Dicksons Run and Murley Branch, and
! in Carrot County, the farthest from
| washington, they are Hoyes Run. Bear
Creek, Crab Tree Greek and Cherry
Run.
Local anglers who want to try to
catch a string of perch and who do not
care for the swift waters of the Poto-
mac around Chain Bridge can find 9
great many of these fish at different
places from Hams Point all the way tc
the swift Waters. One 0 the best places

is between the wharf of the steel plant
and the black buoy marking the channel
on the Virginia side of the river. This
buoy toward the Virginia shore the
Hams Point just little aside of the
buoy towards the Virginia shore the
angler will find a nice sandy bottom
and water only about four or five feet
deep and he can fish all day and night
without losing hook. something that
cannot be done on the rock-covered
bottom of the Potomac upstream. This
place is also one of the best to catch
the larger and gamey striped bass or
rockfish when they made their ap-
pearance around May Is. There is
only one drawback, and that is its mac
feasibility. Only those who have motor
boats can reach it easily. There is a
boathouse at the foot of Seventh street
where rowboatS may be hired.
Ollie Atlas has informed us that he
had received letter from his boatman
at Wachapreague, Va, telling him that
big croakers and some trout are being
caught in the nets at that place. This
boatman says that he expects the run
of big trout to start the last week in
this month. He Is keeping Ollie in

Chantry House, where those who made
the last trip will remember the Won
derful ham served together with other
good things Leaving Salisbury the
next stop will be Wachapreague, which
should be reached in about two and a
half hours. There Is no doubt about
Wachapreague being one of the best
known fishing grounds in the Eastern
section of the country and is visited
each year by hundreds of anglers from
all parts of the United States. There
is only one gamble connected with the
trip, and that is the weather.
