cision over Armstrong. CORDOBA also
earned a victory over the Tech grid
ders. MimmS of Dunbar was high

less a monopoly on the swimming. The
Tech tank team won over Dunbar and
Douglas High of Baltimore. Wallace

Lucas Howard was outstanding for
Dunbar.

building and maintenance program for
the Bureau of Fisheries was passed,
authorizing an appropriation Of ST.
100000 for new fish hatcherieS This
bill also provided the bureau with po-
lice authority'to assist the States in en-
forcing their fish laws and an ap-
propria ton for this work will be made
by the Bureau Of the Budget.
The last session of the General As
sembly of Virginia enacted a law re-
curing a fishing license in fresh tide
water. Prior thereto no license was re-
quired to fish in the many creeks and
coves on the Virginia side of the Poto-
mac.
The Commission of Game and In
land Fisheries of Virginia, owing to a
shortage of game and game food. closed
% counties Of the northern part Of the
State to hunting on December 6.
A N outstanding event of the 1880 sea-
n son was the calling by Commits
sioner Henry O'Malley of the
United States Bureau Of Fisheries
of a conference of the Fish Com
missioners of Maryland. Virginia,
West Virginia and Pennsylvania.
This conference went on record in
favor of closing the markets of Mary
land and Pennsylvania to the sale and
ton of the purse meters in Chesapeake
Bay, restriction as to the number and
kind of shad nets, restriction of fish,
ing and spawning areas for Shad MAIN
tenance OF improved sanitary conditions
in shad rivers, assistance for natural
reproduction by artificial methods, in
Guiding the establishment of shad nur-
series, and establishment of annual and
weekly closed seasons for Shad
The Maryland Conservation Depart
ment has prepared bills for the closing
of her markets to the sale Of bass and
for the abolition of purse nets in Ches-
apeake Bay. These will be introduced
within the next week or two and it is
understood a majority of the legisla-
tors favor the measures.
Summing up the past season. 1t may
be said to have been very successful,
both from the number of fish caught
and the conservation measures enacted.
The prospects for the 1881 season are
bright both as to fresh and salt water.
The United States Bureau of Fisheries,
the conservation departments of Mary
land and Virginia and the Washington,
D. c., Chapter of the I. w. L. A. are
doing everything in their power to pro-
vide better fishing next year and for
years to come.

died their way to victory during
1880 and there was some compe-
tition by the motor boatmen and
sailing craft. Oarsmen, however, were
little in evidence on the Potomac and
those sporting the colors of District
clubs accomplished nothing of note
away from home.
The swimmers, men and women, fire.
quently entered contests here and in
other cities and scored signally. Schools
putting out teams were Central High
Dewitt and Woodward. Central's team
was quite strong, sweeping before 1t all
schools of this section. It scored over
Baltimore City College twice, the Y. M.
c. A., Baltimore Polytechnic Institute,
Loyola High of Baltimore, Woodward
and Dewitt. The Dewitt swimmers de-
feated the Baltimore Friends team.
Central lost to the Yale freshmen
Navy plebes and Tome in dual meets
and finished second to Tome in the
South Atlantic scholastic champion
ships. In the last mentioned meet Ly-
man OF Central won the fancy diving
title.
DIsTRICT colleges to have teams

The Cardinals managed to defeat
George Washington and Johns Hopkins,
while the Colonials also lost to Hopkins
Those triumphing over Catholic Uni

their opponents a splendid battle.
For the first time indoor and outdoor
championships were held under the au-
spices of the new District of Columbia
branch of the A. A. u, the indoor
meet in the Ambassador pool in April
and the outdoor meet in the Tech High
School pool in September. In both meets
the mems points were well distributed
but Onalene Lawrence, 16-year-old
member of Washington Swimming
Club, scored heavily in the women's
competitions.
IN the indoor meet Onalene so out
i classed the field that she captured
the Paul D. Sleeper trophy given
in recognition of individual supremacy
and she was the star OF the outdoor

n was carried through at three of
the local golf clubs which had
held such affairs the previous year,
there was no diminution of interest in
golf around Washington during 1890.
Indeed, the game as whole was car
ried forward on a higher competitive
plane than ever before. notwithstand-
ing the extended drought that lasted
from late in June until the end of the
season without let-up and resulted in
almost complete destruction Of the
fairways at most of the clubs during
the latter half of the playing season.
Never before have temporary winter
rules been invoked during the Summer
at the local clubs, except in cases OF
excessive rain, and unfortunately the
rain was not only not excessive, but
was completely lacking between June
and october. Only one shower came
during that interval. and that, unfor-
tunately. came at time when 1t could
have been dispensed with. namely, on
the day Bobby Jones played at Column
to his final triumph of the year at Me-
rion. BY that time the fairways were
so completely ruined that even the
heavy rain Of September Is did little
good. The drought, If 1t did nothing
else. has firmly implanted in the minds
of greenkeepers the need for some sort
of fairway watering around Washing
ton, for the months of July and August,
even in normal years, spell almost COM
plete destruction of the fairways.
FRANK K. ROESCH, the new District
L champion from the Washington
Golf and Country Club, was the out
standing man golfer of the year, though
he played IN few other events, but his
claim to superiority is only a shade
more impressive than that Of John C.

A NGLERS fishing in the waters
~ of Chesapeake Bay and the
~ Potomac River for the different
species of saltwater fish and
those using the freSh-water streams in
Maryland and Virginia for trout and
bass reported a marked increase in the
number and size of their catches during
the season just closed, over the 1929
period
At the start of the season last Spring
for brook trout anglers found a great
many of the streams well stocked. but
the majority of the fish were small,
Just around the legal size OF inches,
and many undersize. After the first
weeks fishing, hundreds Of dead trout
were to be seen on the bottom OF the
streams. This was caused by the an
glers trying TO obey the law and take
only legal size trout. When an under
size trout was caught, it was returned
TO the water. Either by rough ham
ding or by swallowing the hook the
trout died. Naturally, of course, some
anglers wanted TO catch larger fish and
returned the legal size smaller ones TO
the water with the same result in many
cases-death. So many reports reached
the Conservation Department OF the
State of Maryland that Swepson Earle
shortly after the opening OF the trout
season issued a statement saying that
in the future only legal size trout would
be liberated in the streams.
THE large and small mouth bass an
i glers in the Potomac enjoyed a
good season despite the low water.
In the upriver the largest catch was q
small-mouth bass landed at Seneca
weighing pounds and 8 ounces, and
many other bass running from 2la to
AZ pounds were caught. In the lower
Potomac good catches of bass were the
rule rather than the exception. They
were landed on both sides OF the river.
The lower Potomac offered the an
gler the best fishing in some years past.
At the start OF the season hardheads
furnished good sport, and later on trout
tailofS and rockflsh furnished plenty
of thrills. There were more tailorS on
the Potomac this year, the river al
times being fairly alive with them, and
some weighed and 6 pounds. During
the present month rockfish have been
landed with great regularity by an
glers Drawing the cold winds.
In Chesapeake Bay fishing conditions
were good, bad and indifferent. On our
side Of the bay around Chesapeake
Beach. Herring Bay and other points
nearby, fishing was a disappointment
to many anglers. Across on the Eastern
Shore the anglers found good sport.
