SEEMING Prohibited
In Holmes County
Effective Sept.

Lately the daily papers have been
carrying complaints about the gross
waste of fish on the Delta lakes. Hook
and line fishermen kill every fish they
catch regardless of size and afterward
throw away the smaller ones. The idea
seems to be count some large number
caught so as to have the pleasant glow
of superiority in giving high count in
response to the usual question: "How
many did you catch?" They count them
all even though many are no larger than
a finger and a total loss. All of
which is childish. A grown person
should be able to see that the little fish
will grow after a while and furnish
sport and food. The people with the
seins, trammell nets and other devices
are still worse offenders. On Bee Lake
bank two years ago there was a bushel
pie of small fish seined out and left to
rot-the seiners having evidently picked
out all the larger ones they wanted.
| The matter of seining has come to be
| so much abused and the impossibility of
supervision of the catch so apparent
| that the Board of Supervisors at the
August meeting decided to prohibit it
entirely and to leave the only legal
method of taking fish to be with a hook
and line-and that whether game fish
or gross fish. The regulation to take
| effect September 1st. The unearned
portion of licenses to fish with seins
will be refunded from that date. 1t will
be much easier for the wardens to care
for the lakes and conserve the fish.
Now and then the warden will employ
men with small mesh nets to sweep out
the gar and will superintend the opera
tion.
There are a large number of lakes and
bayous that will afford the best of fish
ing with reasonable care. There will
have to be organized Sportsmen's AS
sociation-lsaac Walton League or 9TH
er-to help preserve both fish and game
1t will act to educate and caution such
as may incline to reckless use of ma
ture's bounty.

n. Y. j. PUTS STRESS
ON RUNNING PLAYS
Violet Also Gets Punting and
Passing in Drilling for
Georgetown.

NEW YORK, November with
only one day remaining prior to the
game with Georgetown, Coach Chick
Meehan took the New York University
varsity foot ball team to the Yankee
Stadium yesterday and sent it through
two-hour drill in a rain. The practice
was designed mainly to perfect the
Vlolet'S running plays.
Besides rehearsal Of formations
which N. Y. U. will use against the
Blue and Gray, the drill consisted of
kicking, passing and signal practice
with q wet ball. Four teams were
used In the signal drill, which went
of smoothly and with much precision.
The Violet coach expects George
town to launch an aerial barrage
against the N. Y. u. eleven and has
spent considerable time in building up
a defense against this type of attack.
Although Coach Meehan substituted
men frequently during the signal drill,
team A, composed Of Toilet. Myers,
O'Herin and La Mark in the backheld
and Nemecek and Marshall, ends; Con-
cannon and Capt. Grant, tackles; Sar-
gisson and Chalmers. guards, and
Schneider, center, received the major
share of the attention.

After making the first foot ball team
at Dartmouth as O guard, j. Chester
Pyles, jr., son of DR.. j. Chester Pyles
of this city, former foot ball stalwart
at Eastern High School, has been hurt
and probably is out for the remainder OF
the season. Gaining tackle berth on
the Dartmouth Freshmen team last
Fall, Pyles was candidate for the
Big Green Varsity this season. He had
just been advanced from the No. 2
eleven to the first team when he SUI
fered q severe charleyhorse, which Is
expected to keep him inactive so far
as foot ball IS concerned until next year.
Pyles was for three seasons o member
Of the foot ball squad at Eastern. from
which institution he was graduated In
June, 1927. He played one year IS q
regular back, another as regular line
man and the other as reserve nneman.
Should he overcome his injury in
time, Pyles plans to try to make the
varsity water polo and lacrosse teams
at Dartmouth. He displayed ability

nation last season.

cluded. Should Tech trim Western, it
will have only to defeat the weak Bush
ness eleven to gain undisputed posses
sion of the title.
Work on the new athletic stadium at
Tech High is progressing, and it Is now
scheduled for completion next May.
The turf in the field, however, Is to be
seeded and the stadium will not be
ready for use until the base ball season
Of 1881.
Right now it does not appear that
any of the high school championship
foot ball matches will be played in the
Tech Stadium, as it is not near SO CEN
trally located as the Central Stadium,
where the contests now are staged. It
may be that consideration will be given
to holding the base ball title games in
the Tech plant, though, as the Cen
trail field Is not well suited to the dia-
mond pastime and Eastern, the scene
of last Springs championship games, is
considered too far away by some.
