ROD AND STREAM
BY PERRY MILLER

ton, quoted the claim of G. c. Wood
ward, game commissioner of Florida,
that "every bass that brings 20 cents
a pound in the market is worth SIS q
pound under any lily pad in Florida.
CLEN c. LEACH, chief Of fish cul-
" ture of the Bureau of Fisheries,
estimated that the commercial
catch of bass in Maryland last year,
which brought $4,000 for $4,000 pounds,
was actually a loss of $37.400 to the
State. He figured the recreational value
of this catch at $4,000.
Is it any wonder then that the local
chapter Of the league is up in arms
land to the sale of black bass? There
is, in the opinion of Rod and Stream
no chapter in the whole United States
doing more effective work In this line
than the local one.
1ANE fishes are like good housewives
" they want plenty Of furniture"
in their homes, but no dirt"
Every fisherman can easily improve
the streams to which he has legitimate
access by remembering that water
alone doesn't make a fish feel at home,
according to bulletin of the Ameri-
can Game Association. A park-like
stream or pond means poor fishing.
Fell an occasional tree into the stream.
Sink brush into the pond This gives
shelter and encourages food. If the
stream gets low in the late Summer,
build low dams along it. See that there
is shade along the banks, that there
are not too many carp or oher fish

The New Brunswick Government Bu-
reau of Information informs us that
the Atlantic silver salmon are ascend
ing St. John River and many beauties
are taking the fly. Sportsmen who like
best to take their fishing near a first
class hotel should be encouraged by
reports from Hartts Island Pool and
McIntosh'S Bar on the st. John River.
These salmon have been running for
more than week. These pools are
only few miles above Fredericton. To
date the two largest salmon caught
weighed 26 and % pounds, respectively.

Shikat to Take on McCready
In Next Thursdays Mat Show

ICK SHIKAT and Earl
McCready, the only two
wrestlers under the Jack
Curley banner that Cham
pion Jim Londos has refused to
tackle so far, will oppose in the fea-
ture catch of Promoter Joe Turner's
s~cnd outdoor mat show at Griffith
Stadium next Thursday.
A supplementary card of four
bouts will round out the card.
McCready, former national inter-
collegiate and A. A. U. champion
and graduate Of Oklahoma A. & M,
which enjoys the same light in COL
lege wrestling that Notre Dame
boasts in foot ball, is, along with
Shikat, rated among Curley's big
Five by the National Boxing Com
mission. McCready is ranked higher
than Rudy Dusek and Jim Mcmillan,
although the latter two probably are
more prominent.
Shikat, who blasted Howard Cam
tonwine's winning streak here last
week, is reported nearer and nearer
a match with Londos, or at least a
crack at the title. Recently Pro-
mOCer JACK CuTley requested LOnQOS
to tackle Shikat and McCready, and
the Greek refused both matches.
Shikat, however, has scored over Nc
Cready.
Sammy Stein, his nose repaired,
will return to tackle Renato Gardini,
Italian star, in the semi-flnal,
finish match. Stein, reputedly the
quickest of all matmen, scored hit
last week IN polishing of Alex
Aberg.
George Zaharias and Jack WASH
burn are booked for the main pre-
liminary, which may set some kind
of world record for roughneSs. Wash
burn is the chief villain in the cir
cult with Zaharias close runner-up.
George Manich, popular here, will
oppose Matros Kirilenko and Sander
Szabo, another local favorite, will en-
gage Benny Ginsberg in other sup
plementaries of 80 minutes or less.
As usual, women with escorts will
be admitted free, except to ringside

Golf Analysed
BY JOE GLASS.

Shifting the weight to the right
leg in the backswing is one of the
most prolific destroyers of balance
for the average player, particularly
in the long shots. Here his i'm
pulse is to swing with all his might,
and shifting his weight becomes
body sway, which pulls the swing
from its proper arc and results in
all sorts of wild shots, chief among
them being the slice-from the club
head drawing in to the left side.
To the duffer shifting the weight"
from the left to the right side seems
to imply a change in the position of
the body which, except for the turn

ing movement, must not take place.
It would be more proper to think of
the operation not as shifting the
weight" but as a process in which
the right leg becomes a brace to sup
port the weight when the pivot
brings the left foot up on its ball
and toe.
Clarence Gambler, the Detroit pro-
feSsional, hits powerfully for tre-
mendous distances, but his swing
is smooth and true. His right leg.
as the sketch shows, is braced
against sway. His position at the
top of the swing indicates the ter
rifle power he is about to develop.
His braced right leg not only helps
obtain that power, but assists in con-
trolling it.
