Continued rains have swollen
and muddied all the fresh water
streams nearby and the upper
Potomac. Cold weather cut down
the biting propensitieS of the
hardheads in the Patuxent.
A persistent northeaSter
chopped up oregon Inlet waters
so that channel bass fishing is
temporarily spoiled. However,
plenty of blues and small rocks
are available inside the bar,
where waters are calmer.
Boats heading out from Wach-
apreague are picking up Is to 80
plump trout apiece and an occa-
sional blue. A 35-pound stray
channel bass was landed there
a few days ago.
Benedict Reports
Some Benedict catches reported
were 81 hardheads Saturday and
one of 10 Sunday by a party out
with Captain MeSsick: Milton
Gordon and Harry Grossman got
18 and Frank and Phil Cosimano
and four friends yanked in II also
on Sunday.
Others out Sunday were
Abe Shapiro. Tom Grasso, Dave
Pavan and Percy" Pierson, who
had only mediocre luck, gathering
in only eight, fishing late in the
afternoon. Next Sunday, they are
going out early in the morning
and going to stay out all day.
Fished All Tides
John Donald bagged seven and
Mickey johnson four. Larry
Homan and his pals fished on all
tides and moved around plenty
below Benedict, but had very poor
results. Those caught were all
fair-sized. The fish are there, for
the METERS are catching plenty,
but they are waiting for warmer
weather before doing any con-
sistent striking. Meters also re-
port fish in the Bay near Solo,
mons.
Tom Gale nabbed at 35-pound
channel bass at oregon Inlet
and Bill Harms and Lester
Maines had one of 80 pounds,
but the rough waves forced them
to fish in sheltered waters,
where they hooked many blue
and rock.

D QUICKSILVER
PROVES CLASS
As JUMPER

Miss Julia B. Whiting, Of
Middleburg, Va.
Testing fences in the country
paneled for the Cobbler Hunt.
Quicksilver.
The first is one of Virginia's
most enthusiastic Sportswomen,
an ardent devotee of the chase
and one who has gained a last
ing reputation as horsewoman
in the hunting field.
The second are so testing that
they are known all over
America where fox hunting is a
popular sport.
The third is a gray mare,
favorite mount of Miss Whiting.
Two blues have come to Quick
silver in the National Capital
Horse Show to date. The first
was won in the Modified Olym:
pia, on Wednesday. The second
was won in the touch and class,
yesterday. The two events are
the most difficult yet offered in
the show, which is now in
progress at Bradley Farms.
There is nothing CLANCY about
Quicksilver's jumping. This mare
is worth a bet any time she is
entered in either of the two
events mentioned. She thrives on
difficult jumping tests. Pnoted
by Stanley Green, of Leesburg,
Quicksilver has won her last four
efforts and brought four blues
to Miss Whiting to gladden. that
sportSwoman's heart.
There were many real jumpers
pitted against Quicksilver Wednes-
day and yesterday. Quicksilver
vanquished them all, and in SO
doing won the admiration of
everybody who watched her jump
as few hunters in the history OF
SPORT have been able to jump.
Those stiffish fences Of the
Cobbler Hunt country probably
have aided in the development of
Quicksilver's extraordinary ability
as a jumper. Certainly they have
caused the manner which has
marked her performances in the
National Capital Horse Show to
date. When she jumps she al
ways leave no room for doubt.
And, when she starts for the first
obstacle one feels confident that
if any jumper will turn the trick
it will be Stanch Quicksilver.
Yesterdays events found the
going slippery. Despite that con-
dition. classes rewarded spectators
for their interest.

First Parade in 1882
Since 1882, when the paddy
from Cork" a yacht belonging to
a member of the famous Water
Club of Cork, defeated the "Emer'
ald," fastest cutter in the Royal
navy, yachtsmen, boatsmen, sal
lors and the public in general have

which intermittently down
through the years has marked
either the opening of the yachting
and boating season or the occa
sion of some famous race.
Let one Of the sponsors of the
June parade make you a prom
Use. Here is what he writes:
with all due respect to the
squadron reviews which have
gone before, it mattering not
whether they were at COwes,
Monaco, New London or Detroit,
WashingtOn's June 4 parade of
pleasure craft will prove unique,

With the marine parade in
mind, Washington owners of craft
have already started a spring
overhauling to assure that their
boats will be ship-shape for the

Detroit Seeks Name
While Washington is looking
forward to the June 4 event, De-
troit is staging city-wide con-
test to discover suitable name
for the week of marine activities
beginning September l, and cen
tering around the Gold Cup,
Harmsworth and Dodge Memorial
races. A friendly rivalry between
Detroit and Washington bids fair
to develop in this matter of stag

boat observers in England has
written to officials in the United
States explaining that he re-

LEAGUE
LISTS z CANES
SUNDAY

The LanSburgh team, riding out
in front in the Department Store
League pennant race by reason
of two successive victories, will
meet S. Kann Sons Co. nine Sun
day morning in one Of two sched'
uled games. This contest will be
played on Monument Lot dia'
mond No. 3 at II a. m.
In the other game. Palais Royal,
defending champions, will engage
the Hecht Co. on diamond No. 4
at the same time.
A Threat
The sburg h diamonders,
judged by their first two games,
loom as a real threat for the
title. Their success has been due
in a great measure to Irwin Bow
man, pitcher, who already has
two wins to his credit, while the
playing Of Bibbs, Deck and Kerr
has been of high order.
However, it is possible that they
may meet a stiff test Sunday in
the Kann nine, which outfit has
been greatly strengthened since
last year. Manager Hyatt has
picked up a capable hurler in
Bob Wallach, and if this boy is
given a little help he should make
his presence felt. In Coiner,
Doome, Lightbown and Frolich,
the Kann boys have a quartet of
sluggers which any Of the other
managers would welcome with
open arms.
Poor Showing
Palais Royals showing thus far
has been somewhat of a surprise
to league followers. Despite their
apparently poor showing to date,
the Royalmen have much power,
both extensively and defenSively.
On the other hand, the Hecht
team has been coming along with
a rush and gave evidence last
Sunday of a tremendous attack
in it's contest with Kanns. Op-
posing pitchers will undoubtedly
have considerable difficulty in
checking the pill-pounding abili-
ties of Kidwell, Gass, Messink
and Shaeffer, not to mention a
few others who are capable Of
giving the horsehide a long ride
when they connect.
GasS' work, especially, has been
one of the high lights of the
Hecht teams play. His fielding
at first base has been above re-
proach, while his batting average
has SCARED.

SUN ABSENT
IN PLAY At
MANOR
BY GEORGE A. SIMPSON

~y 06ONOG "a OANAA OOAN
Local golfers, both men and
women, are wondering when the
expected break in the weather
will turn.
Either rain or damp and raw
weather has hindered the early
program, necesSitating two post
poneme3ts in the women's sched-
ule and marring the Manor Club
invitation tourney, which ends to-
day. Besides, the golfer, who
doesn't make the tournament
rounds, has also been seriously
handicapped by the weather.
For that matter, there hasn't
been more than six week-ends
3rorl the first of the year favored
with decent weather. And most
weekend traffic at the golf clubs
trebles that of weekday play.
First to Suffer
The women were first to suffer
from the elements, the annual
Phyllis Keeler Miller Memorial
tourney, scheduled April 20. being
held over five days because of a
wet spell. Even then, there was
Q high gust of wind sweeping the
course which induced inflated
score cards.
Next came the Keefer Cup
event at Chevy Chase, which for
funately escaped the wrath of the
weather god. Sunshine beamed
Tor this event.
This past Monday, however, the
clouds Sprinkled again and the
Star Cup tourney for women was
delayed. The tournament began
the next day under slightly i'm
proved conditions and was fol-
lowed through to a conclusion
yesterday in the first place play
off in spite of a downpour that
didn't cease until the 1S holes
had been completed.
Set Marathon Record
Officials Of Manor Club had
been hoping that the sun would
smile upon them at least one
day but the overcast skies early
this morning spiked their hopes.
Maury Nee, 18-year-old Manor
Club and Georgetown Prep golfer,
was opposing M. Parker Nolan,
Indian Spring Club, in the semi
finals Of the Manor event this
morning. Harry G. Pitt, of
Manor, and John c. Shorey, of
Kenwood, were claShing in the
other Semi-final,
Nee was a participant in the
longest golf match recorded in
local history, going q holes
before he triumphed over W. D.
Fondren, Augusta, Ca, by l up,
in the second round yesterday
afternoon. Fondren, who won
the medal with II, had taken his
morning match from D. H. Boy
den, Rolling Road Club of Balti-
more, 2 and l. Nee had elm
mated Martin F.. Mccarthy, of
Beaver Dam, 4 and being only
two over par for 16 holes.
Refuses Conceded Putt
Standing on the twenty-seventh
hole, which each had reached in
Is, Fondren offered to concede
puts but Nee refused. Fondren
missed but Nee was successful
and thus terminated the mara
thon duel. At that, Nee could
have retired his opponent in the
regulation route but muffed a
S-foot putt for a win on the
eighteenth hole.
Fondren was down as the
pair came to the ninth but Nee
topped his third shot and lost
the hole. Fondren evened the
match on the sixteenth when Nee
hooked his iron shot onto the
eighteenth fairway, taking a 6.
They halved the seventeenth.
The previous record for ex-
tended matches was held by AL
Ian Lard, Chevy Chase, and Cy
Newton, Columbia, they going 26
holes at Columbia IL years ago.

Naturally this was a grueSome

was the first time for me to see
dogs eating human beings.
These dogs were not, as might be
supposed, wild or mountain dogs,
but were sleek and tame, mingling
with groups of passing farmers,

5.-The motor truck cavalcade of a
score or more American cars. with

the sight of an army transport plane
lowering in the sky.
While scout and fighting planes
pass in crisS-croSS directions far
above, the transport plane swoops
down and drops a leather dispatch
pouch which is delivered to the
lieutenant in charge.
Continuing at its lowest speed
and only hundred feet from the

and gracefully deScends again, drop
ping three or four more boxes.
This operation it repeats. until

The boxes contain rations for
the troops being carried by this

about fifty pounds.
One has burst and the lieutenant
brings some of the cans it contains
