This type of fishing retains all
the best features Of still fishing
besides adding some Of the ad-
vantageS of trolling.
Most Of the big catches Of the
season have been caught with
this system, for the finSterS seem
10 prefer a gently moving bait in
preference to a stationary one.
The GooseS continue to hold
the center Of the Chesapeake Bay
fishing stage, but Sharps Island,
not very far from the GooSes, and
Tilghman'S are coming to the fore
rapidly.
Solomon's Island and the Pa
tuxent are again delivering large
hardheadS which for the past few
weeks seem to have been rather
finicky about crossing the bay.
Anglers, take your excess catch
to 21-23 Municipal Fish Market
to be distributed to the Districts
poor.
The lower Potomac is picking
up fast. Fresh water streams con-
tinue muddy and the bass seem
to be enjoying an extended vaca-
tion.
SkepticS Sheer
"Land-lubbering" anglers have
been indulging in a bit Of over
time Sneering and other demon
strationS of SkepticiSm and down
right doubt over some Of the
catches Of 800 or more fish re
ported.
"There is only 60 minutes to
nm hour" says one SkeptiC. you
can't tell me that some one ON
the boat was pulling In . fish
every minute or less"
Several angling parties fortu
nate enough to register mammoth
haulS were greatly indignant ovel
these insinuationS.

Tow fight would be $4,000 ut
the inside and that he'd beg,
borrow or steal the money to
back up such q forecast.
'Well, son." said Maestro
Turner, elf that's the way You
feel about it, I'll match your
gallant gladiator with GalentO
and sell you the attraction for
the amount Of money you think
it will puIl-$4,O0O."
Young May was bewildered
for a minute-but only for .
minute.
"Wen, 1 amt exactly got the
$4,0Oo, but I can get 1t, and II
yOuU hold Tow here for Sc
curfty, III rush over 70 Alexan-
dria, see my old man, and be
right back here with q certified
check for the four grand"
Reached for Handouts
Turner, taken at his own
words, was on the spot and he
was about to put handouts on
Tow to make sure he wasn't
run-out on, when he thought
better of the idea and eau
toned May he'd better take
Tow along with him to see no
body hi-jacked him Of the
check.
Well, sure enough, the next
day May was back with a certi-
fled check for not exactly four
thousand, but for $2,500 Of it,
signed by Bob May, his father,
a Virginia transportation mag.
nate who operates q line OF
buses to various sections Of the
Old Dominion.
"The other $500 shOly win
come in at the gate" said
Beverly, as he tossed the ne
EOtiabIe instrument across the
counter at Turner, whose eyes
just about popped through his
spectacles.
Personal Following
It so happens that the Mays,
father and son, to say nothing
of Bobby Tow. are something
more than popular down
through the section Of Virginia
where the May buSSes function.
Tow at one time was an op.
orator of one Of those chariotS
and knows every commuter
along the route. Between the
elder and younger May and the
imperSonable former bus driver,
they will bring enough Specta-
tors into Washington from ru.
raj Virginia to make the $4,000
guarantee, and some besides,
according to their claim.
Furthermore" adds Beverly
May in his soft, Southern
drawI, "they're spOrtin' folks
and'll have what part Of their
farms as isn't already mort
gagged, ready to bet that TOw'1I
take this chimpanzee over the
hurdles"
Time will tell about that,
but there's just about all the
resources of an. up-and-op-
Grating bus line riding on the

7LD C. QUALIFIERS GET p GA. STARTING TIMES
About Those Uniforms
And What of AU-StGr
VS.. World ChGnspiONs?.

Such things can cost q team
q championship. Suppose 1t
had been Lou Gehrig? So I re-
peat that it Is unfair to be too
critical Of the owners II they
seem to weigh the advantages
and disadvantages Of the all-Star
game. Even so, there is not the
slightest doubt in my mind that
the midsummer allStar setto win
continue in some form or other.
But has it been worked out
as well as it might be? Chick
Selenko, Of Brooklyn, doesn't
think so, and I have q feeling he
is right. It is all right in theory
to say, put the stars out there
and it doesn't matter in the
least which team wins. But in
practice it goes against the
grain with Mr.. Selenko and, II
they stop to think about 1t,
probably with others.
In theory I was opposed to
Joe Crontn'S idea Of putting the
strongest and best team the
American League could muster
on the field and keeping it there
until the ball game was won.
Indeed, Cronin was taken mild
ly to task here for saying that
he was out to win the game for
his league, but once the teams
were on the field I couldn't
help agreeing with him.
Perhaps it Is true that we
Americans attach too much i'm
portance to winning. But we
do it, and I can't believe we
are being natural and ourselves
when we pretend to feel other
wise. Somehow, it really isn't
American not to try to win any
game we play, particularly base
ball, our native game.
Falling Down
If Cronin had been putting
on q show he would have taken
Mel Harder out Of the pitchers
box after three innings. As q
fellow who was roofing for the
National League entry in q mild
way, I wanted to see Tommy
Bridges, Of the Detroit Tigers,
perform, and the more I saw Of
Mel the more I wanted to see Of
Tom.
But what q dummy Cronin
would have been to derrick q
fellow who was pitching hitleSs
ball. Yet every inning he left
him in there after three, he was
falling down on the job as q
Snowman and failing to keep
his full and complete covenant
with the fans, including yours
sincerely, who had expressed a
desire to see the National
Leaguers try to cross the Ameri-
can Leagues Bridges.
Which brings me to Mr.. Selen.
kos suggestion that instead Of
two teams Of ,All7StarS, that the
league that was defeated in the
worlds series present team Of
All-StarS (choSen by vote OF the
fans) against the worlds cham.
pions. He feels that the game
should be for sure and for
keeps, and that the players on
the winning side should share
in the receipts. He thinks it
would shed a new light on the
Importance Of teamwork in
baseball, and increase rather
than decrease the rivalry be-
tween the leagues. the teams
and the individual players. He
thought Tuesdays All-Star con-
test came too close to being q
love feast for the good Of base
ball. What do you think
about it?
The Washington times., 1934-07-14
FANS CHOOSE TEAM

Fans throughout the Pacific
Coast League are expressing their
choices for an all-Star team by
popular ballot. The team thus
chosen will meet Los Angeles in q
five-game postoseason series should
the Angels be successful in taking
the Second-half pennant.

The Fans Are Sold On (
An Annual Star. Game
But Suggest Changes
By BILL CoRUM

NEW YORK, July 14.-several
letters have come in about the all.
star bali game and without excep'
ton they indicate that the fans
were pleased with the fine show
put on ct the Polo Grounds on
Tuesday. Delighted might even
be q more accurate word.
Naturally there were certain Sug.
gestionS about how the game
might be improved. Bill Lengel,
an editor on one of the well known
magazines, thinks that next year
the players on both squads should
appear in their home uniforms
because Of the drab gray Of the
road uniforms worn by the Ameri'
can League players this year.
"They were not" he says
"'visitOrs in the ordinary way.
This was an alI-Star game, not
an intra-league game Of home
team and visitors"
G. s., Of Long Island City, had
virtually the same reaction, only
he would carry the proposed
change in uniforms further. he
wrote:
"At the big game on Tues.
day everything was first class
except the uniforms. The
players looked for all the
world like . couple Of hick-
town nine coming on the field"
G. s. would have the big sport.
ing goods houses provide Ameri-
can League and National
League uniforms for the play.
erS. But believe he over
looks the fact that they would
not have time i'm which to make
suits to the measure Of the in
dividual players between the
date on which they are selected
and the game. Obviously they
cannot just make up . uni
form of any size and then pass
it out to whatever player may
be selected. If it looked all
right ON Hughie Critz it might
prove to be . trifle tight in
spots for Babe Ruth.
If I recall correctly one or
the other Of the leagues, pos
sibly the National, tried the
scheme Of having special uni.
form made for the all-Star
game at Chicago last year, but
this year abandoned the idea
as impracticable.
Important Suggestion
DR.. Charles B. Mandelbaum
and others are fearful lest the
short-sighted magnates aban-
don, for no good reason the
most spectacular day of the
baseball season.
I think these readers need not
be unduly alarmed. After all,
most Of the owners and all Of
the officials of the game are
fans themselves and enjoy the
game as much as anybody else.
: AS Ed Barrow said Of it:
'They couldn't even pay me
to stay away"
It must be obvious, however,
that the club owners view the
game in a different light from
old George Fan. They have
more at stake. Once before I
pointed out here that last years
game may have cost the st.
Louis Cardinals one Of the top
flight pitchers Of baSeball-Bill
Hallahan. Whether the game
itself was the real cause, there
is no denying that Hallahan
has never been himself since.
