A little bit of this is to be ex-
pected, but this season there
seems to be even more of it than
ever. AS distinct example, many
fans are putting Jimmy Foxx on
third base in order to include the
great Lou Gehrig on their teams.
Your Contest Editor has received
no less than an even dozen letters
with these mentioned arrange
ments of players.
Now, don't get the idea that
your Contest Editor is trying to
tell you how to arrange your team.
He is not. It's 0. K. with him if
that's the way you feel about it.
Difficult Matter
Besides it's a pretty difficult
matter for anyone to leave Foxx
and Gehrig off their teams, as
both players can hit like no
body's business.
Pitchers Gomez, of the Yanks,
and Warneke, of the Cubs, seem
to be the most popular choices
of the fans so far. Lefty Grove.
of the AS. is getting a lot of
play, however, as is Monte
Weaver, of the Griffs. In fact,
the latter is being picked by
many as the "other" pitcher
alongside of Gomez, who is al
most eVeryOne'S first choice.
Whitney, of the Phillies, and
Traynor, Of the Pirates, are get
ting the most play" as the
third base selections while
Dickey, of the Yanks; Cochrane,
of the AS, and lombard, of the
Reds, are being supported gen
erously for the catcher's posi-
ton.
Charley Gehringer, of the De-
troit Tigers, is getting most Of
the "votes" as the second sacker,
while Joe Cronin, of the Griff-
men, is an almost unanimous
choice for Shortstop.
Great Contest
In the outfield, O'Doul, of the
Dodgers; Klein, of the Phillies:
Averill, of the Indians; P. Wa
ner. of the Pirates; Manush, of
the Griffmen, and Simmons, Of
the AS, are being picked.
1t looks like great contest.

pick whom you think should be
at this position and that one.

SECOND BEST BET
BrOOme'S Island
By GINO SINH

Suddenly and almost without
warning the trout has taken COM
mand of the bay, showing the
croaking hardheadS into the back
ground.
Phenomenal trout catches have
been reported from every we'll
known fishing ground IN the up
per and lower bay. and from both
shores, not to mention the mid
die.
However, the reign of the slim
finSter will be very short, as the
pugnacious bluefiSh are charging
into the bay in ever increasing
number and sizes.
Quite a few large hardheads
still manage to jump in ahead OF
many trout for the tit-bits offered
by the anglers. The bluefish con-
tinue to run to pan size or slightly
over. Occasionally several three
and four-pounders are brought in.
The trout are found in all sizes
Large catches of them averaging
two and one.half pounds have
been reported.
Little Frequented
Hooper's Island, this weeks
best tip, is a little-frequented fish
ing ground, but few parties who
have made excursions over to it
have returned heavily laden with
big trout, blues, hardheads and
spots. 1t is located across the
bay from Point No Point.
Broome'S and SolomonS have
perked up wonderfully well during
the past 10 days.
Wally Powell and his Mrs,
Molly and Fanny Lazerow and
Handsome" Jack Canty had a
splendid catch of 103 trout and
SO hardheadS and big perch at
Gattan's, near Broome's in five
hours Sunday a. m. They had
many double-headerS. More than
half of the trout weighed over
three pounds. Morris Eanet had
had a nifty haul of trout the day
before at the same place. H.
Addison Bowie slipped down on
Wednesday and shared SO.
Yank In 10
Mr.. and Mrs. Earl Whippo and
Mr.. and Mrs. Carl Spring had
an enjoyable three hours Tues
day night there, yanking in TO
fish, mostly trout between Is and
20 inches in length. They also
had some big hardheads and
blues.
A party of Philadelphian5
carted away 90 trout, between
two and six pounds, in these
waters. Mr.. and Mrs. A. Pear
son and Mr.. and Mrs. j. Cooke
also were glad they went to
Broome's Sunday evening.
Visits to Solomons also brought
their share of joy. Mr.. and Mrs.
German, Mr.. and Mrs. Casady
and Miss Bird bagged 263 trout
and hardheads there Wednesday
on peelers. They had 26 double
headers, many of them of trout.
Colonel Gets 'Em
Colonel Pierce got a large mess
Of hardheadS, trout and a few
blues in the same place Saturday.
Ollie Atlas, Charles Cohen, Jack
Bernstein and Julius Lalley fished
Solomons yesterday and captured
ITS trout and hardheads, the
catch tipping the Fairbanks for
over 600 pounds. The largest
trout weighed eight pounds.
AStor Clarke and Charles Moi
lett and their wives picked up 80
trout and hardheads at SolomonS

FALSE HEROES

IT IS HARD to figure out any good
1 from the climax of the Lindbergh
tragedy, but it has at least saved us
from making fools of ourselves over a
young sailor at San Diego, impulsively
dubbed a hero because he was not killed
in the disaster that attended the efforts
to moor the Akron in that city.
Granting that this youngSter is brave
and resOurceful, we fail to see any hero
les in what he did
He merely followed the old fundamental
law of Self-preSewatiOn and succeeded
in saving his own life when two of his
companions lost theirs. Nature endowed
him with more strength and fortitude
than they had, enabling him to hang on
to the mooring rope until the crew of
the Akron pulled him aboard.
In the reaction of those who witnessed
the tragedy, the Joy that this youngster
was saved outweighed the grief that his
two companions had been lost. He was
spontaneously given the role of hero
which he really did not deserve, and he
immediately proceeded to make the most
Of it, for which we do not censure him.
He is not mature enough to merit Gems
ure.
His name prominently displayed in the
HedullIeS, HIS picture pOSeu WITH super
iorS whom no camera would ever have
caught with him under ordinary circum-
stances; an engagement to be lionized
at a theatre-all were Immediately
heaped upon this youth, and we were
ready to place him in the same category
with men who have received honor and
distinction because they really deserved
them.
1t was not playing fair with young
Cowart. He had no license to be lionized
and it will be remarkable if the adula-
tion given him in the past few days has
not ruined an excellent prospect for
good sailor.
Americans are greatly amused by the
Latin temperament, which we credit
with losing its head over trivialities. At
the same time we permit ourselves to be
even more ridiculous.
Young Cowart deserved nothing more
than congratulations for his extreme
good luck.
Some of the japanese appear to have
had bit of schooling in Chicago.

in Doubt" It seems to be always so.

WASHINGTON, May 16-There
are a few low rumblings around the
senate about the methods that Vice
President Curtis uses il ruling
that sometimes unruly body. Some
of the senators say he acts like a
sehoolmaster with a roomful Of
6-year-olds. Others pull out the
good old word, "autocratic."
That was particularly true when
he ordered Sen. Huey Long 10 sur
render the floor. The senate over
ruled Curtis and let Long 60 on.
Persons sitting out in front say
the vice president glowers and at
times shows anger as he bangs for
order. Sometimes he is pretty
short with the senators themselves.
He has been known to pound his
gayel like a Chinaman beating
abalone steaks when the minority
and majority leaders are in whis-
pered conversation. While sena-
tors are not supposed to hold con-
5erences on the floor, the two lead
ers are usually considered to be
above such reproof.
But it hardly seems there is an

came running back to where Uncle

baby frogs in the pond at all Not

Aren't there?' asked Mrs. No

swimming around. No frogs at all!
I'm so disappointed"
Then, all of a sudden, Uncle

began to laugh Bunty looked at
them wonderingly.
Those were tadpoles that you

Bunty,' he explained, when the
baby frog comes out of the egg he
is a tadpole, just a sort of body,
with big eyes and tail and only
the beginnings of front legs. After
a while the tadpole's front legs get
larger and his tail gets shorter.
Then, a little later as the tadpole
grows bigger his tail changes into
hind legs and then he has four
legs and he's a real frog. But he
never again has tail. 1t is only
when he is a tadpole that frog
has tail. So VIC get the name
No Tail"
oh" said Bunty, Il see! Well
of course if the little black tad
poles will, after a while, turn into
frogs like Bully and Bawly, it will
be all right, I suppose"

will. Come to the pond with me
