Large Cash Sum and Merchandise Prizes Awarded

Harry Wilson, 972 Ft. Wayne-av, on
live minnow in the Tippecanoe.
Mr.. Wilson gets a casting rod do
mated by Em-Roe Sporting Goods
Co.
Sugar Creek Winner
And fifth prize Of a fly line and fly
box, given by Smith-Ha Hassler-Sturm,
was won by o. F, Deere, 1859 Rus
sell-av, for his two pound, 13 ounce
small mouth taken from Sugar
Creek on live minnow.
We had couple of prizes for the
best bluegills but nobody seemed to
want them. We didn't get one en-
try. That's why we are able to give
five instead of four prizes in the
bass classes.
Prizes will be mailed to all win
nerS next week.
We wish we had consolation prizes
to offer for some Of the entries that
missed out for one reason or an
other.
Mrs. Cora McCarthy's monster
large mouth-an even eight pounds
was taken in closed waters. The
same for Howard Quimby'S seven
FOUNDER. And Mrs. Lloyd Hill of
Paoli was far in front for the spe-
cial prize with her seven and one
half pound wall eye until we heard
from Mr. Johnson.
But so it goes. To the winners
congratulations-to the rest-better
luck next time.
We hope to see you again in the
spring.

Times Fishing Writer

Every entry in The Times fishing
contest has been checked and tabu-
lated and the winners have been
chosen.
But first we feel we owe a few
words Of explanation to several fish
ermen and women who entered fine
specimens which we were unable to
consider for the prizes because the
fish were not caught in open water
as specified in the rules.
Our definition Of open water, ar
rived at only after great delibera-
ton, long distance calls and con-
ferences with conservation officials
and firms who donated the prizes
is this:
Water that is open to all the
the public for fishing at all times
with no fees, dues, membership
cards, payments or other restric-
tionS.
At first this may seem unfair to
anglers VINO prefer the fishing clubs,
the privately controlled waters where
payment is necessary or the private
lakes, pits or ponds to which they
may have access.
But as we see it a place is not
open and public in the fullest sense
of the word unless every angler with
a license is entitled to fish at all
times at no expense.
Two Giants" Ruled Out
It's unfortunate that this decision
eXemptS the two best large mouth
specimens that were entered. One
weighed eight pounds, the other
seven pounds, two ounces. Two
other entries that might otherwise
have won prizes also were ruled out
on these grounds.
The winner of the special SIS
cash prize offered by The Times for
the largest game fish in any class
is Charles Johnson, of 1922 Lexing-
tOn-av.
Mr.. johnson scored during the
last few days of the contest with
great northern pike that scaled just
two ounces under ten pounds.
This fish was the true great north
ern, not wall eye. 1t was taken on
a spinner lure near MOnon Greek on
Shafer Lake and on 14-pound
test line, at that. A yard stick was
just the length Of this fine scrapper.
Six-Pound Large Mouth
First in the large mouth bass di-
vision goes to Robert Peterson Of
720 Park-av. Six pounds, six and
one-half ounces was the weight of
fish that grabbed his black plug in
the DriftWood River below Edin-
burgh
II thought I was snagged," he
said.
Just for that you get the SIS cash
and the gold filled medal donated
by Walt Jones, Mr.. Peterson.
To Walter Spangenberger, 1910
KenWood-av, winner in the small
mouth class, go the duplicates of
MIR. Peterson's prizes; both cash and
medal.

XNTHILE Ed Stevenson and his
w Marott Shoe team stood head
and shoulders over all competitors
among the male kegelers of the city
last night, Laura Alexander came
in for her share of glory by posting
the best three game total and single
game of the season among the
feminine pastimers.
Stevenson, who is constant
threat to the TOO mark, merged
games Of 265, 2O6 and 900 for a 691
series in the weekly matches of the
Fountain Square Recreation League,
and when a trio of his teammates
also scared above the 800 mark and
the fourth was but 25 pins short,
the Marotts posted the best team
total of the season in the South Side
loop to top all city quintetS that
faced the pins during last nights
sessions.
The team tackled up games of
1885, 9S4 and 1904 for 3213 total
and through its record series won
three games over the opposing
Chas. DENLY Cigars, to go into
tie with Falls City Hi-Brus for
the rurncrup position in the team
standings. Oscar BehrcnS ran
second to Stevenson, games of 221,
223 and 235 giving him a 679 that
was good for City-wide runnerup
honOrs of the evening. Paul
Stemm added another 600 to his
long list, when he stacked up
649. Larry CObler blasted out a
GIG and Carl Mindach collected
SIS. Carl Kiefer at CIT and Joe
Dana at 612 were outstanding for
the losers. The MarOtt team was
formerly known as Flap Jacks,
last night being the first time that
they flew the COlorS of MarOttS
Shoes in the Fountain loop.
Cooks Goldblumes fell below the
5000 mark for the second conSecu-
tive week, but managed to hang on
to the league leadership through q
sweep Of its series over BoWes Seal
Fast. A 1923 windup was its best
effort Of The evening. Jess Pritchett
Sr. had 646. Lee Carmin. 628. and
Don Johnson, 601 for the Cookmen.
while Daugherty with 612 and Dan
Abbott with Gil collected the best
totals for the losers.

The Irish proved more alert, un-

Broad Ripple battled to the very

but fell short a scant point of tie.
The Rockets bowed to defeat be-
cause their try for point was short
and they missed winning because a
late game field goal attempt was
wide.
Joe Dienhart'S Cathedral lads used
the same pass combination, Bob
Connor to Larry Mabee, to connect
for both their touchdowns, scored
IN the first half.

The Irish saw their first drive for
a touchdown halted when a pass was
intercepted by Emmett McCleery.
The same player fumbled on his own
30-yard line a few seconds later and
Vic Lanahan, Cathedral wingman,
pounced upon the bounding oval.
Connor then tossed to Mabee and
the Irish end leaped up and caught
the spiral from the hands Of de-
Tending Tech backs. He squirmed
from among them and ran ten addi-
tional yards to goal. A running
play for extra point was smothered.
After the next kickoff the teams
resorted to punting duel until the
quarter ended. They resumed those
tactics as the second period opened
until COnnor returned one past mid
field.
Jack Corriden broke loose for a 35-
yard dash to reach the flve-yard line.
Connor again passed to Mabee, who
made a great catch of the ball in

TOREGISTER

Administration officials today
were confident nearly all of the
nations utility holding companies

more Federal Court ruling that
the Wheeler Rayburn act is un-
constitutional.
Since registration does not de-
prive a holding company from the
right to fight the act in court,
many of the utility groups are ex-
pected to comply with this initial
provision.
SEC Commissioner James M.

his agency would administer the

that only the Supreme Court
could declare the law invalid.

Acquires
Ward Distileries
AT Cederhurst, Md.

To assure supplies Of aged
whiskies for future use and to
obtain increased facilities for
bottling present products, Olde-
tyne DiStillerS, Inc, has &C.
quired the Thomas Ward Dis
tilling Co., at Cedarhurst, Md,
according to an announcement
made today by Henry c. Kaplan,
president Of Oldetyme.
Mr.. Kaplan said one of the
reasons for the acquisition Of
this distillery, known for genera
tons as a producer of high-grade
Maryland whiskieS, was that the
present facilities of the Oldetyme
plants have been seriously
strained to meet present demand.
I'VE consider ourselves very
fortunate" Mr.. Kaplan said, "to
be able to acquire this fine old
distillery which had a reputation
for the distilling Of good whisky
many years prior to prohibition.
It is in the heart of the Mary
land rye country. where many
of the famous blending ryes of
pre-prohibition days were made. "
