telling his friend about the long brassie
shot that struck the pin. And the
friend glowered at me, probably be-
cause had let him get away. At the
end of four days 1 had heard about
almost every shot he had played With
out being able to unfold In return any
of my own phenomena. A par OF this
type is entirely too difficult for any
average orator to face.
The Chance for Action.
II know writes L. F., that both
Sharkey and Stribling can fight II they
much will they want TO? Stribling, at
"a, Is far better than Tunney was at
"a. No comparison Sharkey can be
about as good as he wants to be. But
how much will they give out? One
detail is pretty sure. If either fails to
crowd in his share of the action In this
coming party, it will mean his finish
as card. If both fail they will both
be through.
There Is a young Mr.. Schmeling
coming on, who will crowd one or
both out Of the big money picture
If there is any tendency toward a
combined wrestling and dancing act.
Sharkey and Stribling understand
well enough now that this next
stand is to be the one that makes or
breaks
No pair of fighters ever had a greater
chance to surround large lump of
spotlight than these two have, They
have all the makings for action and
lYielodrama ombined--skill. speed and
the ability to punch Taking all these
details into consideration the chance
for action in this next contest Is first
class.
Foreign Challengers.
Bob Fitzsimmons, the Cornishnian,
was the last fnreign-born entry to win
the heavyweight championship. Most
of the others were flops until Firpo
came along. The Pampas puncher was
the. most sensational of all the invaders.
Schmeling is the first Of the Ger
man entries to make any Roadway
up the grade. And when one figures
mp all his qualities he has a great
chance to keep climbing. For that
matter. many Of the foreign entries,
however, crude, have been much
more willing to fight than most OF
the native-born stars.
The latter have the cart of self-de-
tense to be just that. They have been
able to see dollar much more clehrly
than an opening arotifd the chin.
Schmeling already Is more of a fighter
than most Of the lieavyweiglits since
Dempsey slipped out of the picture. He
will be popular because he happens to
beMeve that fighting means fighting
not wrestling ana dancing.

ROD AND STREAM
BY Perry Miller.

The purse net bill prohibiting the
use of these fish destroying nets In the
waters Of Maryland was introduced in
the Senate of the Maryland Legislature
last Thursday by State Senator Daniel
B. Chambers, who Is also chairman of
the Senate fish and game committee,
and was referred to his committee.
The bill as introduced prohibits the
use of these Misunderstanding nets in the
buck net being a similar device, more
like a gill net, but both equally destruc-
tive.
The proposed measure would force
courts to impose fines ranging from 500
to $500 and jail sentence not exceed
ing six months for violation Of the act.
One.half of the fines would 60 to the
conservation department and one-half
to the person or persons instrumental
in securing the conviction. The con-
servation department is also given the
right to confiscate the fish and place
them back in the water under the pro-
visions OF the measure.
Any boats used In violation OF the
proposed law would be sold by the
sheriff of the county in which the
violation occurred and the proceeds
divided between the conservation de-
partrnent and the person or persons OBJ
taining the conviction. The nets and
other equipment taken from the violator
would be destroyed by the conservation
department under the terms of the bill
Public hearings to allow protests will
be held soon, with State Senator S.
Scott Beck, Kent County, and other
legislators leading the fight, it was said
Strenuous opposition Is to be ex-
pected from the commercial fishermen
OF Chesapeake Bay to the purse net bill
who allege that the sportsmen of Penn
| sylvania, Baltimore, Washington and
Western Maryland are spelling markets
for them
Reports state that Chester River and
bay fishermen Of Kent County are join
ing forces with Tilghman Island water
men in bringing influence to bear on
the Legislature against any change in
the laws. The commercial fishermen
! contend that the general public is in
terested in obtaining fresh fish In city
markets. and that If the laws are
changed to suit the taste Of sporting
anglers, buyers of fish will soon be
compelled to purchase cold storage fish
brought from other states.
These commercial watermen add that
sporting anglers should try their luck
in the Severn River, where there are
no purse nets as a result of a law te
that effect passed 10 years ago. Sports.
men are being told that other Mary.
land waters are open to them without
their having to interfere with an in.
dustry that brings livelihood to hun.
dreds of Eastern Shore and other fish
ermen. n

Rock Hail fishermen are said 10 be
asking for return of the 10-inch rock
fish law and cessation Of aW-inaking
as regards the fishing industry.
What these commercial fishermen
fail to take into consideration is the
fact that by their operations with the
purse net they are fast killing off the
supply Of fish and that they are rob-
bing not hundreds, but thousands, of
their old neighbors who make their ily-
Ing by catering to the wants of anglers.
They say the Severn River is open To
the rod and reel angler, but fail to
realize that, the fish the anglers want
are not allowed to get into the Severn
River and other places because they
are catching them with purse nets and
other devices. They fan to also take
into consideration the fact that when
operating their purse nets they catch
far more fish than they are adeduately
prepared to handle and the Ice houses
ear for, and that thousands of these
fine game salt water Ash are oonse-
