light and recalling exciting mo-
ments of countless fishing trips,
Wally was suddenly startled into
action when his reel began to spin
like mad.
Vainly he sought some way to
check it without cutting his fin
gers.
When whatever it was stopped
running with it, Wally began to
pull it in slowly. carefully, and
when it decided to run again he
let the line out gently.
Lasted Twenty Minutes
The battle lasted for some tWen-
ty minutes and when Powell final
~ brought the finster to boat he
discovered it to be a six-pound
trout, the biggest trout reported
so far this season.
Wally did not weigh the fish
himself, but had "Cap'n" Reich
ard, of Green Gables, do it, and
it hit the six-pound mark flush.
So that's how Wally Powell
staged a heroic comeback
While Wally was having his epic
battle, Jack and Molly were also

dragging in two trouts, one weigh
ing 3A pounds and the other
pounds.
But they couldn't get near any
more trout during the rest Of the
day.
Hardheads are plentiful every
where. Bill Crenshaw, Harry
Post and Guy Smith bagged about
200 of them off Gooses last week
end. R. L. Rivercomb, Alex Gus
dorf, Jim Jameson, and Vic Myers
picked up a big mess of them
around Shady Side Monday. John
Smith was another who had eX
ceptional luck at Shady Side.
Sees Large Trout
Sam Scogna watched a boatload
of hardheads among which were
several large trout coming in al
Seaside. apparently from around
Sharps Island Light.
Pete and Louie Scarala nahbed
a bunch of hardheads and few
trout around Solomons Monday.
Jimmy Kalatouras docked with
283 large hardheads at Point Look
out Thursday.
Jack Tulloch, Judge Snow,
Judge Kennedy, Abe Martin, S. B
Moore, Floyd jerks, and several
other Alexandrians rendered many
a hardhead and bluefish home
desolate with their catch at S. w
Middles Thursday. They caught
around 700 hardheads and a large
number of blues.
Charles SWartz had an expert
ence which revealed to him that
some fishing captains are the salt
of the earth.
Sunday Swartz, his wife, and
Mr.. and Mrs. James Ceranton went
down to Shady Side with the ex'
pectation of hiring row boat.
No luck. All were hired out for
the day. So they tried Galesville.
Here they ran into "Cap'n"
George.

He had several row boats. They
offered to hire one.
"NO, street" the "Car'n

and use it as long as you want
to and it won't cost you a penny.

friends"
That was a refreshing incident

Surprised Cardinals
LaSalle surprised the Cardinals
last year in the season inaugural
by battling the Brokland team to
a 6-6 draw. The Philadelphia
eleven then wound up it's schedule
without the loss of a battle.
Aside from La Sale, the C. U.
team will stack up against two
other 1884 undefeated clubs. They
are De Paul, which has lost but
one game in three years, and
Western Maryland, Dick Harlow's
bowing-out masterpiece before
taking over the coaching reins at
Harvard.
Dropped From Schedule
De Paul, Detroit, West Virginia
Wesleyan, North Carolina and
the University of San Antonio
(St. Mary's of Texas) are new
opponents to be met this year,
along with Duquesne, and, of
course, La Sale and Western
Maryland, foes of last campaign.
outfits which have been
dropped from the c. U. schedule
are Holy Cross, Manhattan, Ogle-
thorpe, Baltimore University and

The 1885 season marks the
twenty-fifth year of football at
Catholic University and the sixth
season that Dutch Bergman will

Drop in the Bucket

1t so happens that little mat
tiers like economics do not enter
in the Red Sox picture, because
Yawkey inherited plenty of ut"
both from his mother and from
his foster father. So let's not
work up a lot of pity either for
Thomas or Eddie.
In the two baseball seasons
of the Yawkey- Collins associa.
ton more cash has been de-
voted to building a winning

quently referred to in the game
as baseball money"
Some of this money went to
modernize Fenway Park, an
operation which was completed
a year ago last spring, but most
of it went for players. From
the outset it was apparent that
Yawkey intended to buy a pen.
nant by the direct expedient of
bringing in stars of other teams.
On advice Of his baseball
handy man, he now boasts some
of the most startling names
which the American League has
boosted in recent years.
Who's Who In Baseball
There is Grove and Walberg
and Bishop, Gordon Rhodes,
Wesley Terrell and his brother,
Rick. as we'll as Bill Weber,
Carl Reynolds, Oscar Melillo and
Joe Cronin-all names which
picture a cross-section of the
league which find themselves
huddled midway of the stand
ings under the magic wand of
the House of Yawkey, which,
next to the House of Morgan.
is one of the most talked-of
counting centers in the country.
The greatest of these opera
tons from a financial stand
point, was the Cronin deal, re-
putedly a quarter of a million
baseball money! transaction,
which even the benefactor of
that deal, Clark Griffith,
laughed aloud about. If the
Cronin deal is an example of
what some of the other adopted
Red Sox cost Yawkey, the spirit
of this recital is not exagger-
ated when I say that Uncle
Tom has indeed been taken
over the jumps.
Many a baseball fan will
share the thought that not
Cronin nor even Groves nor
Yves Terrell are the most valua.
BILE players Yawkey got out of
his various deals, money. and
playerS-but that Bill. Weber
probably has more playing fu-
ture than any one of those
three glamorous names.
Far From Pennant
But, advised as he was,
Yawkey, with all of these aces
of the game under his tent, is
far from a pennant.
Close students of the game will
tell you that great names do
not make a playing ball team.
They look swell on a roster,
but the amount of team work
that can be extracted from
nine great guys on a ball field
who neither grew up together
on the same team or acquire a
woodworking system of play
common to them is a mooted
question to which you will find
varying answers, depending to
what school of baseball thought
YOU aScribe.

REVIEWS CAMPAIGN.
FOR HIGHER TAXES.
La Toilette Holds Increase
Is Sale Barrier to OBJ
StruCt Initiation.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
A renewed campaign for increased
Federal taxes, especially on incomes
and inheritances, was to be launched
today by Senator La Toilette, Pro-
gressive. of Wisconsin, following his
speech last night criticizing the ad-
ministration's revenue policy.
In a radio address, the Senator held
out high levies as the sole barrier that
might obstruct imitation.
He charged President Roosevelt
''haS thus far failed to meet the issue
of taxation" and contended that
while incomes of the wealthy are
climbing no effort has been made to
lift taxes to meet mounting Govern
ment costs.
Cites Last Years Stand.
In the last session, La Toilette said,
the administration was willing to ad-
vocate only legislation designed to
plug up the loop holes in the income
tax law which had been revealed by
the Senate Committe on Banking and
Currency"
when efforts were made to amend
the bill to increase the rates of taxes
upon incomes he said, "the Treasury
refused to take position. But in
the Senate We faced the open oppo-
sition of the administrations spokes-
men. The attitude of the admins
tration toward taxation at this session
has not been revealed.
1T is to be hoped that it will take
a courageous position for heavily-in-
creased taxation in accordance with
ability to pay If it fails to meet this
issue, it will thereby undermine and
ultimately destroy its efforts to
achieve its announced objectives.
Progressives Plan Fight.
Regardless of the action. or mac
tion. of the administration. the Pro-
gressives in the Senate will make the
best fight of which they are capable
for drastic increases in the taxes
levied upon wealth and income.
only in this way can we carry on
these expenditures. and avoid uncon-
trolled imitation. Only in this way
can We secure a more equitable dis
tribution of the national income.
Only in this way can we increase the
production of wealth, provide employ
ment. and restore the moral of our
people
