The Foundation is offering $500
in cash and 20 silver cups and
certificates of merit to those who
will establish wild water fowl
refugees and will be very glad to
give all information possible upon
request.
Fellow sportsmen Of Maryland
can assist in this matter as there
are thousands of small water
holes located on farms and
marshes, some of which at pres
ent are used for the purpose of
furnishing water to your stock.
BY enlarging these, or using the
area as it is at present, service
can be rendered.
Create Small Dams
There are a great many
meadows in Maryland where small
dams could be created which
would be in no way detrimental
to the water supply. In this man.
ner a small lake could be Gre
ated, furnishing migratory water
fowl with resting area during
their migration. The gray NAL
lard and black mallard could be
raised in captivity.
There are also swamp areas
which at present are very unar-
tractive, but through the erection
of small dams could be made very
attractive, which areas at pres
ent, especially during day seasons,
become dry which makes them
very unattractive, and any assist
ance which can be rendered even
on . small scale will be beneficial
to our much sought game bird,
wild water fowl.

DISPLAYS
FORM IN WIN

NEW YORK, April 22-Like the
first report Of Mark Twain's de.
mise, these training camp stories
that the singular Dizzy Dean had
lost some of his remarkable effec-
tivenesS appear to have been
greatly exaggerated.
If DIES performance against the
Pittsburgh Pirates yesterday is
any indication Of stiff arm, let's
have more of them.
The eccentric Dean held the
Pirates to five scattered hits and
enabled the St. Louis Cardinals
to win an easy to l victory be-
fore $4,000 fans, the largest crowd
to attend a game in Pittsburgh
since 1929. He would have had a
shutout if Arky Vaughan hadn't
got hold of fast ball in the Sec
ond inning and driven it into the
left field bleacherS for a homer.
It was Deans first victory OF
the year.
Babe Hits Homer
Another alleged "has-been" also
came through with very credit
able performance up in Boston,
although it wasn't enough to give
his team a victory. Babe Ruth hit
his second home run of his Ma
tional League career off Ray Benge
in the first inning, but the Boston
Braves dropped an to ! decision
to the fast stepping Brooklyn
Dodgers.
The New York Giants and the
Philadelphia Phillies appear to
think this is mid7season. They're
playing as if it were. Over in
Philadelphia they battled hecti-
cally to a A tie in the eleventh
inning when the 6 o'clock Sun
day curfeW halted activities.
Chiefly because of the irrepres-
sible Giant cast-off, Blondy Ryan,
the Phillies executed six double
plays, tying a big league record.
Those surprising Cincinnati
Reds batted across four runs in
the twelfth inning to humble the
Chicago Cubs, 8 to 4, in a ding
dong affair in Chicago. Paul
Derringer went the route for the
Reds and although touched for
Is hits, famed 10.
For seven innings, Bill Diet
rich, a beSpectacled highlander,
held the New York Yankees hit
less at New York, but in the
eighth inning he suddenly weak
ened and allowed four runs to
sift across the plate on three
safe bingles. The result was his
team, the Philadelphia Athletics,
lost the ball game, 4 to 3.
Tigers Score
Dietrich had the Yankees swing
ing like a bunch of semi-pros in
the early stages of the game,
but in the Hateful eighth his
stuff deserted him completely.
The champion Detroit Tigers,
playing on their home lot, had
to go Is innings in order to trim
the Cleveland Indians, 3 to 2.
Schoolboy Rowe relieved Carl
Fischer in the seventh and got
credit for his first victory Of the
year.
In a fast well played game at
st. Louis that went 10 innings
the Chicago White Sox downed
the Browns to before a holi-
day crowd of 5000. Rookie Beau
Bell, of the Browns, got a homer
with the bases filled in the sixth.
