my game. but on the whole my scoring
hasn't been very satisfactory. This
layout at Lake Wales may look easy
but it is nobody's set-up. 1t doesn't
require distance, but it does take ac-
curacy. I have had lots of rounds
where one bad shot in the round has
put me in an unplayable position, and
how that hurts. Needless to add the

w WITH the kinks fairly well
~ ironed out of his immacu-
wv late swing after lengthy
' ' lay-off, Roland Mackenzie
is showing the members of
Congressional some lang distance hit
ting even in these days o. slow fair
ways and Winter golflng conditions.
The youngster is as long as he was
in the days when he amazed the Brit
iSh with the tremendous wallops he
hit from the tee and he is destined
to show those Congressional folk just
what lengthy hitting means before
the golf season of 1884 is more than
under way.
We played Congressional with
Roland yesterday and watched him
cut loose on a few tee shots, under
conditions that were hardly good for
golf Some of MS wellops were truly
amazing. for example, his second shot
at the par fifth, where he hit a
mediocre tee shot and then pasted
a brassie shot into the middle of the
green against a head wind
At the eighth he was so far from
the tee that he was home and we'll
home, with a mashie niblick second
The hole is a par affair of about
470 yards.
At the thirteenth, hole of about
500 yards, he was within 10 feet of
the hole with a drive and a No. iron
and he canned the putt for an eagle
8. And at the fifteenth hole, against
wind that must have been blowing
at rate of 25 miles an hour, he bored
one through that left him only a
light iron to get home. This on a
day when it took two full ShCts for
ordinary hitters to reach the fifteenth
and sixteenth holes
Come Spring and warm weather
and Roland Mackenzie is going to
surprise the regulars at Congressional
with some diStance-c covering wallopS
from the tee that will erase all men,
ories of Tommy Armour and his long
hitting. Some day Roland is going
to drive right onto the middle of
such green's as the fourth, sixth and
seventeenth, and If he doesn't get
around Congressional in 66 or better
it won't be because his tee shots have
failed. He can everlastingly wallop
the daylight out of a golf ball, and
Congressional is a course that favors
long hitting.
TINE good folk at Congressional
are in the midst of plans for
construction of an outdoor
swimming pool to be located near the

sioner Frank T. Bell and Glen G.

who have just returned from an in

These Government officials covered
almost every State, starting in Wash
ington State, going down the Pacific
Coast, through the Southern and
Middle Western States and ending in
the Northern part of the country.
Glen Leach told us the object of the
trip was to see what Improvements

diture of money in Matching facilities
for large and small mouth black bass
and members of the trout family. He
said both he and Bell were most en-
thusiastic over conditions and that a
big surprise was in store for the an
glers when the fish are liberated.
Leach also said that yellow perch
are moving about in large numbers
in the Potomac around the bureaus
hatchery at Fort Humphreys. He
said the temperature of the water is
in the neighborhood of 40 degrees
at present, and that when it reaches
SO, white perch, herring and shad
will advance rapidly to the swift
waters of the Potomac above Wash
ington. Leach pointed out that the
recent ice on the Potomac had re-
tarded the movements of these fishes,
but that he expected them to reach
the vicinity of Washington about

the commercial fishermen down his

into the mouth of the river in large
schools, but not as plentiful as at
this time last year. Trap meters re-
port the early herring are sizable
and fat.

self last week and found the Potomac
at Chain Bridge about normal, with
only a moderate current running.
The water is clearing rapidly and if
the white perch, herring and shad
be plenty of fishing at the present
time, the water being in fair condi-
ton for angling.
The river is full of Winter or Hick-
ory shad, and many are being snagged
at different places. I was much sur
prised to learn that some of these
fish are being sold. I had thought,
and still think, they are the least de-
sirable Of food fishes. However, I en-
countered a colored man on the
Mount Vernon Boulevard with a

DEFINITE decision as to the

~ date for the National Capital
Open Tournament will be made
known as soon as Al Houghton, Ken
wood Golf and Country Club pro, re-
turns from his tour Of the nearby
Southern tournaments. He will play
at Augusta, Pinehurst and Virginia
Beach, returning to Washington about
April / and will sound out the senti-
ment of the pros for a May date for
the National Capital Open.
If date between May Is and June
is chosen, as has been suggested,
the Kenwood club probably will not
secure as strong field as that which
has played in previous Capital open
tournaments, for the reason that
there may be no other nearby tourna-
ment to attract the pros in May,
like the Pinehurst mid-South affair
in November. But those good folk
at Kenwood also deserve q far better
break in the weather than they have
had In November in past years.

Richard is one of the many who
have been catching these Winter
shad. Another report states that
many are being landed in the Wash
ington Channel. A singular thing is
that none of these men use line with
a three-pronged hook, but have only
a comparatively short pole, much like
a broom handle with hook in the
end, and as the fish swim past they
plunge fiefcely at them, and are re-
warded by wiggling catch.

he wants to do with the squad, GER
