The bar at the moment Of the tough

a dark, slender, beautifully-dressed
person Of refined and distinguished
appearance who was reading the Con-

He rumbled wordlessly for awhile.
Then sudden and unpleasant idea

piciously. Whats the big idea back

Anglers Contention That Fish
Won't Bite in Northeast Wind
Exploded by Numerous Hauls

and brought the fish out Of the deep
water to feed.
Glen c. Leach. chief Of the Divi-
sion of Fish Culture of the United
States Bureau of Fisheries. said the
theory of fish not biting in north
east wind is an exploded one, and
agreed with me that it was only
when the water became rough that
the fish stopped biting. Talbot Den
mead. law enforcement officer of the
Bureau Of Fisheries. said he has been
fishing more than 20 years and never
found a northeaster puts a stop to
fish biting. In salt water, he said,
1t was more a matter OF tide than
the wind, and that he had caught
many fish when the wind was from
when the water gets too rough the
fish will not bite"
CR IzAAK WALTON in his book
y "The Compleat Angler" said OF
the winds:
But first for the wind: you are to
take notice, that of the winds, the
south wind Is said to be the best.
One observes that
When the wind Is in the south,
It blows your bait into q f1sh's
mouth.
Next to that, the west wind is be-
lieved to be the best; and having told
you that the east wind is the worst, I
need not tell you which wind Is the
best in the third degree: and yet Gas
Solomon observes), he that considers
the wind shall never SOW so he that
busies his head too much about them,
If the weather be not made extreme
cold by an east wind. shall be little
superstitious: for as it is observed by
some that there Is no good hourse
of a bad color so I have observed.
that If it be cloudy day, and not
extreme cold. let the wind set in that
corner it will and do its worst, heed
1t not"
There are many superstitions among
the anglers, and I think the theory of
no fishing in northeast wind is one
of them. This saying has perhaps
been handed down from generation
to generation, but, like a great many
others, Is fast being discarded. I re-

Table tennis is looming as Sc
rious rival to billiards as the pas

A number of British saloon
keepers who heretofore provided
billiard tables for their customers
pleasure now offer table tennis
equipment instead.
Popularity of the game is not
limited to the saloon. The English
Table Tennis Association now has
10000 registered players, and thou
sands more are not listed.
Social and sporting clubs make
much of the game, and many pro-
fessionai foot ball clubs have their
table tennis teams as well.

Loss of "CaIamity Jane"
and Putting Touch Blamed
for Bob's Defeat.
BY ALAN GOULD.
Associated Press Sports Editor.

4 UGUSTA, Ga, March 26.-
n Now that it's all over and
~ Bobby Jones, jr.. knows
4 \ how it feels to come back
and take it squarely on his
golfing chin, the explanation is
quite clear today why the re-
nowned Georgian trailed an
even dozen professionals in COM
petition for the first time in his
career, finishing 10 strokes be-
hind the winner, Horton Smith,
in the $4,000 first annual mas
ters' invitation tournament.
Jones not only mislaid Calamity
Jane" the putter with which he
stroked his way through the greatest
golf championship winning streak of
all time. but he lost his putting touch
along with it.
There may have been some other
contributory caAseS to the fact that
he finished no better than tied for
thirteenth with 294 for 70 holes, in
the company, incidentally, of the past
and present British open champions,
Walter Hagen and Denny Shute. But
the outstanding fact remains he was
soundly beaten because he lacked
control and confidence around the
green's.
Far from being discouraged, Jones
fully intends to make this Spring
joust with his old rivals an annual
event. The Augusta national tourna-
snent he said, will be made an an
nual fixture, adding: UNLESS I break
down completely, hope to participate
every year, regardless of how I am
putting or where I finish"
That's the full extent to which he
Intends ever to return to competition.
Spiking the revival of reports that he
might enter this years national open
at Merton, Pa, Jones said emphatic
ally: I'm through with all of that
for good. You can make it just as
strong as you like that my answer
Is no."
Analysis of Jones' four rounds
shows a striking reversal in putting
form, even though he was inconsist-
ent to the last. Whereas he took 36
and 80 puts for his first two rounds
of rs and "a, he used up only 80 and
81 puts on his closing two rounds,
on each OF which he carded 70. On
this basis he wasted enough strokes
on the green's during the first So
holes TO have wiped out the 10
stroke margin by which he trailed

w yITH the scalp Of Bobby

today, to prepare for the

open championship, with its purse oil

ished well down the list in the Au-
gusta open, which closed yesterday
with Horton Smith annexing the
lions share OF the purse, was to play
at Pinehurst today, but was not TO
start in the North and South. Jones
is connected with one of the prom
inent golf equipment houses, and was
slated to demonstrate the ne"
needed" ball in a match over the
sand green's of the Carolina resort.
In the starting list of the North
and South are two Washington pro.
fessionals-A Houghton Of Kenwooo
and Fred Mcleod OF Columbia
Houshton has been at Pinehurst fol
three days. He withdrew from the
Augusta open after two inferior
rounds. Mcleod played through to
finish with total of 3l6, an average
Of 70.
The Augusta tourney proved once
more that no matter how well a player
may hit the ball up to the green he
must also be able to finish the hole

like. The 10 strokes by which he
finished behind Smith we're all ex.
