High Tide at Salt Water Fishing Grounds
October IL to IS.

has been having good luck with striped
bass or rockflSh off Tall Timbers.
With a party of local anglers recently
he landed nine of these beauties weigh
ing from to II u pounds.
Capt. Harry Woodburn, at Solomons,
when not landing blues or sea trout,
is fishing for rockfish off Point Pa
tience with more than fair results.
One day this week he landed four
weighing from to 9 pounds, and the
next day caught five tipping the scales
from to. IL pounds.
Admiral Hugh Rodn1an and Lieut..
Comdr. w. A. Hicks fshed with Capt
j. L. Goldsborough this week, and
while they did not get any rockfish
they did succeed in landing IA sea
trout, some of them weighing 4 and
pounds; 20 hardhead and blues.
Comdr. Hicks said plenty of small
blues were breaking water, but no
large ones caught.
y EORGE KNIGHT at Leonardtown
NJ informs us that rockf1sh are now
being landed farther up the
Potomac between the mouth of the
Wicomico River and Colonial Beach.
He said that Capts. Goldsborough,
Cheseldine and Trott are taking their
parties to this vicinity.
A. H. G. Mears at Wachapreague,
Va, informs us that after six weeks Of
easterly winds the weather for the last
few days has been fine, especially on
the ocean. He said there is a big run
of croakers and sea trout at present,
and that the average catch per boat
is from to bushels.
Bass anglers are waiting for clear
water. The Potomac and Shenandoah
Rivers are suffering with muditis, and
the creeks and coves below Washing
ton still are discolored.
Capt. c. F. Willoughby at Ridge,
Md, ST. Jeromes Greek, tells us that
plenty of trout are being caught, some
of the catches running as large as 100
and $50 a boat. These fish, he said,
are not large, weighing around and
21a pounds. Capt. Willoughby said he
can obtain plenty of alewives for
cumming. This place is always a
good bet for anglers.

Luis Had Help.

TIE WAS built up, of course. The
III boys he beat in his climb to
the top were of the palooka, or
stumblebum, variety. He was no
match for Dempsey in a free-rule
Slugging bee. But he proved by the
three or four real wallops he man
aged to plant on DempSey's chin that
he deserved his chance at the title.
The customers did not kick about the
money they spent on that fight,
though they spent good deal.
Against Dempsey the senior weighed
218 pounds. In 1881 he weighed 260,
and his portly frame was visible from
a distance of several blocks in the
city of Buenos Aires. 1t takes great
deal of zeal for man like the senior,
fond of browsing and sluicing in
every form, to hack off all that sur
plus tonnage and regain his sylphlike
stature of a decade ago. Perhaps he
means business.
If he does, and if his breathing and
arterial pressure are all that Don
Juan Mackenzie says they are, the
senor really may resume his homi-
cidal career in North America next
Summer. A match with Baer would
be hard on the senor's aging cor
puscles, but it's beautiful match on
paper-two of the least Skillwul boxers
and most reckless swingers of all time.
1t can't happen, but it's nice to
think about.

GEORGE NO STAR
IN MAT TRIUMPH
New England "Champion''

He Defeats Szabo.

I'D DON GEORGE may be New
- England'S idea of a world
rassling champion, but as far

thousand mat incurables are con-
cerned he is pretty much of a wash
out.
AS champion" George twice has

Szabo in his debut George looked bad.
Opposing the same gent again last
night at the Washington Auditorium,
Don looked worse. He won, Of course,
both times, but in rassling victories
often are incidental with the cash
customer.
Don earned nothing but round Of
booes last night when, after taking a
licking for all except a few stray sec
ondS of 81 minutes, Szabo dramatic
ally landed from a body slam as no
veteran growler would land under or
binary circumstances.
The Hungarian, out in front by a

der, landed on the point of it, and
rolled over and played dead George
hoped aboard until Referee Benny
Bortnick achieved the count of three.

NEWER. but larger fish, are being


H dished up by anglers these cool
1 October days. Chesapeake Bay
and its tributaries, especially
the lower Potomac, are full of blues.
Some of these gamesters weighing
9 pounds are being caught. Sea trout
are being landed principally in the
Patuxtent around SolomonS Island
and Brooms Island, the lower Po-
tomac off Tall Timbers, Piney Point,
st. Georges Island and Point-No-Point
Light.
Great numbers of blues are observed
in the upper part of the bay, off An
napolis, South and West Rivers. These
fish are of the smaller variety, weigh
ing from l to IL pounds, with an
occasional big one. Across the bay
on the Eastern Shore the blues are
3 to pounds and over.
A recent catch by group of local
anglers, headed by Joe True and Billy
Nishwitz, is evidence of the size of the
blues to be caught at present. They
landed So blues for total weight of
1862 pounds, some of the fish tipping
the scales at pounds. They f1shed
on what is known as Hoopers Strait,
almost at the entrance to Tangier
Sound. This catch was made at day.
break. The tigers of our waters were
said to have been observed, not merely
breaking water, but jumping entirely
out of the water. AS far as the eye
could see, the schools were romping.
"WEDNESDAY afternoon we made
w trip to Poplar Island with
Capt. Noah Hazard. We had
in our party Arthur Collins, Wilbur
Leech and Tom Hind. Crossing the
Bay, we observed many schools of
sinners and alewives with gulls fly
ing over them, close to the water,
usually good sign for the angler,
but after trolling through and around
these schools of small fish, we decided
that the blues were not beneath them
We anchored in deep water off Poplar
Island, started cumming, and soon
had two blues, one weighing four
pounds and the other two pounds, but
we were too late for good fishing, dark
ness soon putting a stop to blue
fishing. Hind landed the larger fish.
Down off st. Georges Island blues
and sea trout are furnishing excellent
sport, according to Capt. Lewis Thomp-
son of that place. He said trout run
ming from u to 3 pounds and blues
weighing around 1 and 2 pounds are
being landed. Last wednesday he
had in his party Ernest Zimmerman,
John Maycock and M. G. Major.
They caught As blues and ! trout.

MIDDLE ATLANTIC
|SLAST BIG EVENT
Elizabeth Harris Lauded as
Retiring President of
Fair Div0teerS.

THE competitive golf season Is
Just about over. The curtain
in women's golf activities,
winding up the biggest season
the fair golfers about Washington ever
have had, is to be drawn today at the
Washington Golf and Country Club.
where the final round in the Middle
Atlantic championship is being played.
Barring the final in the Maryland
State team tourney, which finds Chevy
Chase in the role Of defending cham
pion in the final, and a couple of club
Journeys at Chevy Chase, the big-time
competitive season is over. But. for
most golfers the end of the tourna-
ment period means nothing. Most Of
them do not play in Journeys, and
with the finest weather of the year
in front of them during the months of
october and November plenty of golf
is in prospect. 1t will mean nothing
in a competitive way, but it will mean
lot in fun.

THE Middle Atlantic section at
last seems about ready to
come in for its proper recog-
milton as q center Of good
feminine golfers.
Either of the two fair players who
met today for the mid-Atlantic title
at the Washington Golf and Country
Club is good enough to do well in a
national championship, and it Is quite
possible that with ample time on one
side and a little more experience on
the other. one of them might win the
big crown.
Mrs. David H. Clark of the Army
Navy Country Club, mother Of three
children, veteran of the golf wars
for several years and a former Phila-
delphia debutante, plays golf for the
fun of it. She probably would go
fairly far in a national If she were
sufficiently interested to go in for 1t
seriously. But golf, to her, is sport
and fun, and when it becomes hard
work, as it is in a national, she does
not care greatly for it.
lily HARPER, the slim young
Portsmouth, Va, miss, who met
Mrs. Clark today for the title,
packs more power and punch, more
downright, cold-blooded concentration
than a dozen lassies her age.
At 18 years Lily Harper looms as
the best feminine golfer ever pro-
duced in this sector. She does need
experience, but you never would know
it to watch her calm and cool de-
meanor as she wallops the ball to dis
tances many of the better male play
ers envy.
Her distance-those 200-yard wal
lops-is amazing to the women who
have watched her play this week at
Washington. She obtains it by a fine
pivot and exceptionally good wrist
action, for she hasn't much weight.
When the youngster finishes this
tournament she will tip the scales at
less than 100 pounds. She loses sew
eral pounds in every tourney and she
started this one weighing 102.
Lily is very much like Pam Barton,
the British youngster, who captured
the fancy of the galleries in the Cur
tbs Cup matches at Chevy Chase.
And she isn't far from being as good
a golfer as Pam.
TT TAKES lot of golf to whip a
seasoned campaigner like Betty
Meckley by a margin like 6 and
4. Yet that is what the Harper kid
did yesterday in the semi-final of the
tournament. She put on the pressure
from the jump, to get out in Al and
turn up, winning the match with a
par 3 on the fourteenth hole, where
she was only over women's par.
Mrs. Clark had more trouble win
ming from Mrs. Roland Mackenzie. In
the lead most of the way, Mrs. Clark
won on the seventeenth green, but
Mrs. Mackenzie had some woeful mo-
ments around the putting greens. She
three-putted the twelfth and thirteenth
greens in a row to enable Mrs. Clark
to obtain halves on both holes.
Finalists in the second flight were
Mrs. M. E. Irwin of Beaver Dam and
Mrs. L. H. Hedrick of Army-Navy.

Appearance in Pittsburgh to

''It is evident that he is COM

and his speech will help MIR.
Guffey and Mr.. Earle at a time
when they need help badly, and
in the belief that the people of
Pittsburgh can be deluded into
thinking that these gentlemen
had something to do with the
new building, now happily ready
for occupancy except for their
speeches.
"This is the same Mr.. Farley
who has taken such an amusing
and active interest in the Penn
sylvania campaign, and who
seems to believe that Peunsyl-
vanians are incapable of ham
ding their own affairs.
"It is the same Mr.. Farley.
who, for the first time in his
tory, has succeeded in Tammany-
izing the administrative agencies

effort which was blocked by
President Cleveland and Presi-

"It is the same Mr.. Farley

tute Farley appOintees for
