Hardheads have been caught in
nets between Solomon's and
Broomes, and are expected to
take to the hooks around Bene-
dict some time next week.
Izaak Walton would be delighted
by the fishing carnival the board
of fish commissioners of Pennsyl-
vania are staging on May rs at
Bellfonte, cele ebrating the opening
of a new trout stream which has
over a million trout. Last year
the spot was just a COW pasture;
now it is the home of many trout
over foot in length.
Barbless Hooks
But what would tickle the fine
sportsmanship of old Izaak is the
fact that fishing will be with arti-
ficial lures and barbless hooks, so
that those who catch more than
a certain number can return the
surplus to the stream without
damage to the fish.
Outstanding fishermen along
the Atlantic seaboard will partlci'
pate in the festivities, with a
strong delegation expected from
Washington. All anglers, both
male and female, are invited.

With Jockey Garner.

= LOUISVILLE, KY, May ST.
hope that readers of this story
will pardon a short depression
from the all-absorbing topic in
this city-today's sixtieth rum
ming Of the famed Kentucky
Derby-while I say that my
known enthusiasm for the event
has been tempered by the loss
Of a friend. In the short span
Of a lifetime a man makes few
enough tried, true and trusted
friends, but the late Harry
MoSeley Stevens was one of
mine.
Mr.. Stevens had been mortally
sick for sometime, and. so far
as he is concerned, it is no doubt
a blessing that his suffering is
over. But there are those of us
who will miss him and think
pleasant, kindly thoughts of him
always. What better thing can
any man leave behind than such
memories in the minds of those
who knew him best?
Again I say that 1 am proud
to have called such a grand
gentleman my friend, and
grieved that 1 did not have an
opportunity to tell him good-by.
a. Lack of Caution
1t takes a remarkable lack of
caution, or perhaps a remark
able amount of nerve, to risk a
prediction in a horse race as
wide open as the big blue-ribbon
Blue Grass classic they are 60
ing to run off at the old
Churchill Downs oval today.
But it seems to be the accepted
and expected thing and my
guess is:
/. Cavalcade.
2. Discovery.
3. Mata Hari.
4. Agrarian.
AS I sit here and try to
visualize the race-in which
probably is fleet 3-year-olds will
run one mile and one-quarter
under their stake weights
through my sometimes murky
crystal ball I see:
Mata Hari. sweetheart of the
Blue Grass. Little Peace
Chance, from Joseph E. Wide
ner's rolling acres at Elmen-
dorf, and Joe Simonetti's five
hundred-dollar copper" horse,
Sergt. Byrne, making a heart
breaking pace through the first
mile. They are the speed horses
of the field, and left alone any
one of them might steal off to a
Lead that would also steal the
race.
First Turn in Front
But no one of them will be
left alone in that pulse-jump-
ing, sinew7straining dash to

The King Pin captain will
be one of 10 experts who will
shoot it out in the team match
that will be followed by a head-to-
head set-to between Ollie Pacini,
the Northeast Temple ace and
No. ranking bowler of the coun'
try, and Astor Clarke, the roller
who aspires to that fame.
Places is passing up no oppor'
tunities to get the jump on the
Occidentals by signing Smith
Ray Won Dreele was originally
scheduled to roll.
Trump Card
Smith now seems one of his
trump cards since the King Pin
leader played an important role
in nosing out Occidental for the
District League pennant and more
recently shot the big set to put his
spirited club in front of the for,
mer league champions in the city
tournament.
Will that bugaboo carry on?
Places is wondering and gambling
upon it.
Smiths entry into the big-time
was a brilliant effort when he
rolled $50 at Queen Pin to steal
the show for a Capital team
against the once great Happy Five
some years ago.
Record Shooters
Banking heavily on the crew
that established a world record set
of 1906 in Hartford to keep the
Occidental colors flying high, Fred
Buchholz. the popular hacker, will
send Paul Harrison, Ed Blakeney
Joe Harrison, Earl McPhilomy and
Clarke to stave off the powerful
head-pin smashes of Ray Barnes,
Eddie Espey. Whip Litchfield
Pacini and Smith.
A doubles match involving
Espey and Litchfield against pos
sibly j. Harrison and Blakeney
will follow the Pacini-C Clarke sin
giles.

Standing only five feet five and
tipping the beam at 14O pounds,
the little Italian. is one of the best
third basemen in scholastic
circles.
De Stephan is a human dynamo
full of energy and fight. He is
not only a brilliant fielder but a
timely hitter.
Although his team suffered a
13-to-6 defeat at the hands Of
Central in an inter-high baseball
series game yesterday, De Stephan
played like a big Lacquer, getting
two hits and fielding with excel
lent style.
One of De Stephan's hits was a
smashing triple to left center.
Eight errors spelled the de-
feat for Western. The usually
reliable Jimmy Corcoran. second
sacker, committed four errors;
Phil Boundford, shortstop, fun
bled two, and Happy Schneider
and Red Mullock made one each.
Ted Kinsman started on the
mound for the Georgetowners
and lasted five and two-thirdS
innings, permitting eights hits
and II runs.
Does Fairly Well
Red Mullock took up where
Kinsman left off and pitched
fairly well. Central used three
pitchers in winning-Claude Cow
an, Walter Smith and Lefty
Rowles.
Lefty" Chumbris. left-fielder
and cleanup man, and Nick
Pistolas led CentraTs offensive
with two bingles apiece. Both
of Chumbris' drives went for
extra bases. He socked a triple
to the extreme left field and
drove a double to the deepest
right.
