ALONG THE WATERFRONT
BY carroll KLOTZBACH.

How bare and drear the channel now
that nearly all the boats have gone into
Winter quarters. The park authorities
should do something about this, erect
a screen, or, better still, permit the
berthing Of boats along the park wall.
This would be a waterfront improve
ment that would require no appropria-
tions by laggard Congress and provide
additional opportunity for a recrea-
tional sport without peer. The waning
game of base ball is provided for, why
not provide for an up and coming sport
like boating?
A fence and walkway have been con-
structed along the park wall for use
of visitors to the park-and the reasons
for most visits to the park-the boats
removed to the opposite side of the
channel where they cannot be seen.
Give the sightseers and the boatmen
chance, berth us along the wall.

There Is hardly man, woman or
child who has not heard or read some
thing about Izaak Walton and few who
have not heard Of the Izaak Walton
League of America with chapters In al
most every city in the United States,
but how many Of them actually know
what this league Is doing for you and
me, and for posterity.
The leagues conservation platform Is
as follows:
To encourage appreciation Of Amer
ica's outdoor resources.
More outdoor recreation to develop
better Americans.
Eradicate pollution to safeguard
health and aquatic life.
Protect and extend our forests and
replant idle lands.
Restore drained areas and prevent
unwise drainage.
Better protection for wild life and
more refugees.
More fish and game farms to perpet-
uate the supply.
More trained workers to direct con-
servation affairs.
Stop the sale Of all Wild game and
game fishes.
Enforce conservation laws and respect
private property.
Mold public sentiment and teach con-
servation in schools.
Cooperate with others striving to ac-
comphSh like aims.
Some of the outstanding things the
league has under way are:
International layground.-Promoting
a campaign to create and develop an
international wilderness recreational
and timber producing area in Mime
sofa and Ontario. Shipstead-NeWton
bill pending in Congress.
Cheyenne Bottoms Refuge.--Promot-
ing plan to establish permanent lake
and wild-life refuge of 10000 acres in
the Cheyenne Bottoms, Central Kansas.
Hope bill pending in Congress.
Fisheries Program.-Urging Congress
to enact the White five-year fisheries
bill to establish a definite, comprehen-
stve program OF expansion and develop
ment Of fish rearing and research act1vt-
ties. This bill affects SO States.
Forest Protection.-Supporting legis-
lation to establish q program to pro-
tect national forests against fires in
stead of spending several times the sum
now appropriated to extinguiSh them.
Englebright- Cutting bill now before
Congress.
Bass Law Enforcemsnt.-S Sponsoring
legislation to stop the sale of black bass
in the few remaining States and en-

Returning to Amateurixrr.


TT WAS made evident some time back
L that the French notions concerning
amateurism were much more liberal
than those In the United States. For
instance, there was the case Of the
French amateur tennis player who
turned professional and ioired the
forces of Mr.. c. c. Pyle. Subsequently
he repented taking this step because he
felt that the wage was small, or for
some other reasons best known to him
self
He applied to the French Lawn Ten
mis- Association for reinstatement as an
amateur. This was arranged. It was
taken for granted that he was very
contrite. But then there was the fact
that he had taken the tainted money
Of Mr.. Pyle. That made another prob
lem. It would not do for him to hold
the wage of shame and still be q re-
constructed amateur.
The French Lawn Tennis Associ-
alton solved the problem. 1t decided
that the penitent professional must
disgorge the ill-gotten gains. But
the disgorging must be made to the
French Lawn Tennis Association
and not flung into the sinister face
of Mr.. c. G. pyle. The amateur as
sociation took the money and the
French tennis player was restored to
full amateur standing.
Under this ruling Mile. Suzanne
Lenglen might be restored to full ANA
teur standing If she would turn over
to the French Lawn Tennis Association
all of the profits that accrued to her
while she was playing the tennis one
night stands with Pyle's troupe. But
evidently Mile. Lenglen received more
for sacrificing her amateurism than did
the male tennis player
At any rate, she made no application
for reinstatement and she has made no
gesture in the way of tossing the ILL
gotten gains from the professional trip
at the feet of the solons in charge Of
the French Lawn Tennis Association.

BY o. b. KELLER,

Sometimes I wonder why we never
have had a southpaw golf1ng cham
pion in the major ranks.
A couple of years ago I met
very good lefthander named Len
Nettlefold, who was at st. Andrews
to compete in the, British open
championship, and Nettlefold was
at the time amateur champion of
Australia. But that is as far as I
ever heard of man getting who
stood on the wrong side of the ball.
However, they have annually in
this country a national southpaw
golfing championship-did you know
that? And Rudolph S. Juran Of
Minneapolis has won 1t four times,
his last victory being the third in
row. so that he now has permanent
possession Of the trophy and is
known as king Of the southpaws.
And I received a very interesting
letter the other day from an ASso-
ciated Press correspondent, Charles
A. Crunch. at Columbia, Mo, con-
corning Ben Richter, professional
at the famous Triple-A Club in st.
Louis, who, says Crunch. probably
