FIRST CAUGHT

By GINO SINH

Mike Presley, q veteran District
angler, yesterday experienced the
biggest thrill of his career as
pursuer Of the finsters when he
hooked :, 30-pound cow-nose rhea
first time one has been caught
or seen in Chesapeake waters in
IL years.
He was fishing off Colonial
Beach, his usual hangout. and was
not particularly successful, having
caught only few little spots and
q small rockfish, when the mon
ster struck his line.
'Tt was just like as II tug
boat had suddenly shared 1t.
There wasn't q chance Of hold
ing him. You just had to let
him co." Presley described the
process Of bringing him IN.
every time I was able to get
him close to the boat he would
take a notion to steam away
and / had to let him go.
'Yt took IS minutes Of tick
lish work to land him, as 1 was
using a 32-pOund Vic's Sport
line. Finally he surrendered
And was glad? When we
dragged him to the side OF the
boat we found that we couldn't
bring him in with a net, SO we
had to harpOOn HIM"
The boatman could not identity

Pesley took his catch to the
Bureau of Fisheries, where D1'
rector Ginsberg discovered it to
be a cow-nose rhea, so named be-
cause of two cow-lip formations

roots up oysters and forces them
into his mouth.
TiIe.Like Teeth
The mouth is equipped with a
flat, tile-like, set-off teeth, with
which it crushes oyster shells
easily.
According to Director Gins

to 1900 pounds. The Gulf Of
Mexico is its usual habitatiOn.
This solves long-standing
mystery of many broken lines
around Colonial Beach, blamed
on a monster rock. A school Of

ROEBUCK. GETS
Bic CHANCE"

The big moment in wrestling
for Tiny Roebuck will come Fri
day night when he encounters
Ray Steele in the feature bout of
Promoter Joe Turner at the
Clark Griffith Stadium.
Roebuck, the giant Indian. will
have the pull in weights on Steele
as the Redskin tops the scales at
245 pounds while the Californian
will be at least 80 pounds lighter.
Roebuck will also have an i'm
mense edge in heighth and reach.
The one factor favOring Steele
Is his greater experience. Steele
has been taking part in wres-
Ting matches much longer than
ROebuck and experience counts
heavily. Also, Steele is hailed
everywhere as the successor to
Jim, LOndOS, recognized in most
States as heavyweight cham.
pion.
Steele added to his reputation
when he disposed of Dick Shikat,
the German, last Friday night in
Philadelphia. The bout went al.
most an hour and half before
Steele Subdued Shikat. The lat
ter, one of the best matmen in
the country, will also appear on
the card here Friday night. being
booked to oppose Jim ClinkStock,
another Indian, in the semi.
final.
Still a third Indian will grace
