Let's Go Fishing
SEASON OPENS
WITH HANDICAP
OF Low WATER
Northern Lakes Believed
Better for Anglers
Than Streams.
BY GEORGE H. DENNY
Times Fishing Editor

Local anglers report variously OF
opening day luck. The consensus
Of opinion is that the northern
lakes were better than the streams
We haven't heard of any decen
catches, except at Shaffer and Free
man and below the Oakdale dam.
Marcus Blinn took the limit al
Freeman, casting Heddon "spook,
and eight nice ones were bagged al
Shaffer by Louis Wetzel's party.
Silver bass were in evidence below
the Oakdale dam and they are run
ming larger this year than usual
This about ends the good news
Not SO good for opening day, but
the water was very low and the
rains are going to help.
Roy Palmer, DR.. Clarke Rogers

bash and Eel rivers on Saturday

Snagged channel cat on fly, be-
lieve it or not.
Reg and Helen Garstang are back
from the Burt lake country of
northern Michigan with stories OF
fine catches. They took many fine
pike, pickerel and trout from Burt
lake, Crooked lake and Five Mile
creek.
Discovery of a secluded and aban-
doned nill-pond far from the beat
en- track and full of brown trout
was the highlight of the outing.
Both flies and worms accounted
for several smaller brownies, and
finally a big rainbow shouldered
the smaller fry out of the way and
deliberately sucked in Regis offer
ing. The next few seconds was full
of action and ended with the angler
falling from a log, breaking his fly
rod and losing the fish.
A sharp decrease in the number
of violations of state fishing laws
this season shows that the conserva-
ton departments educational cam
paign is bearing fruit.
Every one of the 375 sportsman's
clubs in Indiana has one or more
members designated as nonsalaried
wardens to aid in obtaining observ-
ance of regulations. Fishermen are
beginning to see that the only way
promote better sport is through CO.
operation with the department.
Be sure and have your license
when you are fishing. The dollar
that it costs you is the best hunt
ing and fishing insurance you can
buy. The department needs the
money and will spend it to give YOU
better chance for success on your
jaunts afield.
The lowest form of animal life
Is the man who dynamites fish. A
few laWless individuals can ruin
miles of fine water in a short time
by this practice.
In spite of the decrease in fish
and game violations noted this sea-
son, conservation department Off
Gals are sorry to state that twelve
Enersons were nabbed on this count
"a the past week. Three of the
number have confessed and the rest
are awaiting trial.
Three of the arrests were the re-
suit of the quick-thinking of a real
sportsman who noted the license
number on a truck and notified Off
GERS. This man deserves the thanks
OF every fisherman in the state.

CAYN0R
 HAS STAR ROLE IN "cAR!OL|NA'' |!
Film Opening Tomorrow at Capitol Shows Friction
 Between Old, New

Carolina" with Janet Gaynor and Lionel Barrymore heading a good cast, opens at the Capitol Theatre tomorrow, after a preview at 1 o'clock tonight.
 The picture is sympathetic study in character contrasts, where in the traditional pride of the Old South conflicts with the aggres- siye ambition and determination Of the Yankee North. Personalities interpret the theme. The aristo- cratic elder Connellys, Misses Con- nelly and Bob. interpret the first relation; Joanne, winsome, cour- ageous and sympathy-s stimulating the second. Buffeted between the two. loyal to one and in love with the other, is Will, scion Of the old order.
 Localed in Carolina. timed in the early years Of the 20th century the production is rife with faded dre a m of the glorious Lest Cause vibrant with the thrill of a new agricultural and industrial empire. Against this background revolve the historical drama and
 romance, love interest, comedy made uproarious by the character of Scipio (Stepin FetchiD, tragedy of disillusionment, music and spe- cialty and color.
 The love story that unites the easygoing Southern boy, Will, with Joanna is heart-touching. So is the determination of Joanna to carry on her late fathers plan of plant ing new crop, tobacco. Equally arresting is the proud determina- ton of Mrs. Connolly to preserve old traditions.
 The Son of Kong" with it's gi- ant ape, in comedy part, and its
 spectacular earthquake sequence is showing for the last times to- night.

their desire to get ahead rather than stagnate on state relief mon ey.
 The students" do not live at the center but are given an allow ance sufficient for board and lodg- ing A free noon meal is provided at the center.
 At the end of a six months course, most of the students are ready for regular jobs and large percentage have obtained work, either by themselves or through the ministry.
 But they are not the traditional type of apprentices. The training is entirely different and officials say there is far more interest and en- thusiasm manifested.
 Pit Boys Delft as Walters
 One important trade or vocation taught is that of waiter.
 Young men, selected from the coal regions or manufacturing towns, are taught to keep them selves and their clothes clean, and are put through difficult waiter training course.
 A regular restaurant is their laboratory. They take turns at the various waiter tasks, such as cap tain, table waiter, assistant wait CT and bus boy
 All of the graduates of these courses are snapped up by leading hotels and restaurants like the Sa- voy, Ritz and swanky Cartridges.
 These walters work around in all dining room jobs and then the better ones are picked for conti- mental training They are sent to France, Switzerland, Germany and other countries on an exchange basis for a year or more.
 Jobs No Longer Menial Young English walters thus get an idea of the way meals are served in foreign cities and also learn something of foreign langu- ages. .*
 At the center they are given rudi- mentary training in French "kitch- en words" and they must be abe to read and write a French menu. The general idea behind the class is to. give England home-bred wait CTS in the future instead of inn porting them. from the continent. Until only recently, waiting on table has been looked upon as a menial, undignified job, beneath the average Britisher.
 Trades taught at the centers in- clude cabinet making, coach body building, coach trimming, coach painting, hairdressing, m chin e shop operating, garage work, weld ing, metal working, wood machine work and similar skilled labor.
 Applicants We'll Sifted A barbershop run at the center by students is popular place. It is free to. students in other classes and most of them have no fear as they risk their necks to a shave from nervous boy just fresh from Welsh coal mine.
 The only trouble is that we have too many applicants and we have to sift them to get the best" one official said. He makes special trips around, getting the most like ly looking lads out of thousands of would-be students. STyOp IN uuINrATrs
