WASHINGTON, March 28.- President Roosevelt is off fishing out where he can shuck his collar and tie and go about as he pleases.
 It is the time of the year when his fingers itch for the rod so he IS aboard Vincent Astors Yacht for an outing. With little group of friends he is forgetting politics and is fishing just as plain Frank lin D. Roosevelt, American citizen, taking a vacation.
 As usual, not alarmed by prece- dent-his predecessors always shied away from leaving Washington while Congress was in session. MT. Roosevelt planned the trip de- spite the activity on Capitol Hill. This doesn't mean, however, that anything vital will escape his mo- tice. A naval craft conveying the yacht will relay by wireless to the President anything pressing.
 In Excellent Health
 Too, should need arise for any quick presidential action, there are incidents to prove it can be had The famous Roosevelt message to the London economic conference in 1883 was written by the President while he was on the water-aboard the cruiser Indianapolis bound for Annapolis, after his trip along the Maine coast in his little boat, Am berjack. had been completed.
 The Presidents staff and friends were strong for the forthcoming va cation. They pointed out that while the President is in his usual rugged and excellent health, he has no chance whatever in Washington to get away from the daily grind and that the end of all such trips in the past has found him refreshed and unusually vigorous-even for Roosevelt. Last year, for instance, on his return from a similar excur- sion he told members of Congress with smiling joviality how he had been fighting big fish, and added: I'm tough guy; come down and see me-
 MT. Roosevelt's trip this time, strictly informal, finds him putting away his coat. wearing an open necked shirt and a pair Of slacks while he tries his skill. By unspok- en but common consent serious matters will be out of range of dis cussion, although the President may isolate himself now and then to consider major developments. Likes To Break Routine Associates of the President say he is keen for such breaks in his routine not only because Of his deep love for the water-his major hobby-but also because it gives him a chance to get away from all formality, from dressing up, and a chance. as well, to eat the stout fare of fishermen in strictly stag company When the little fishing boats are lowered away from the

Needing just 26 more registrants at ? o'clock this afternoon, there was every indication at City Hall that the voting mark of 1864 per- sons made last year would be brok- en today
 A check at o'clock showed that 1889 citizens had qualified for the general municipal elections on April by signing the perma- nent registration books. With two more days in which to register be- fore the books are closed Saturday, the forecast that this years electo- rate would number close to 1900 persons was virtually assured. A new one-day registration mark was hung up yesterday as l48 citi- zens signed the books.
 No New Filings
 Meanwhile, the final date on (which to file for office passed with the closing of the City Hall office yesterday afternoon. And, as was expected, no new bidders tossed their hats into the political ring.
 Three complete tickets and one independent set-up are due to bat tie for votes on next Tuesday. The three complete tickets each have a mayoralty candidate and a supporting lineup of three council candidates. The independent set up lists but a lone candidate for mayor, without running mates.
 G0ldstein Bidding
 Mayor Isadore Goldstein, asking for reelection, is backed on his Economy Ticket by the following incumbent councilmen: George B. Rice. William Reck and Art Mo- Kinnon.
 c. H. MacSpadden, former coun- cilman and City Dock wharfinger, heads the Citizens Ticket With him are the following councilmanic candidates: C.. E. Krause, Alfred Dishaw and Mike E. Monagle.
 Charles L. Crozier, member of the Alaska Mine Workers Union, is the mayoralty bidder of the Pro- gressive Labor Ticket, first party to file. John P. Monagle, (brother of the Citizen Party's Mike E. Mon agle), Mel L. Heard and Walluf A. Rasmussen, are Crozier's coun- cilmanic running partners.
 Boggan Alone
 Garland w. Boggan is alone in the mayoralty race. He has said that any of the nine council candi- dates would be satisfactory to him.
 The only man who seems sure of being elected to position is Walter P. Scott, lone bidder for the vacant School Board position. Scott is filling out an unexpired term and is the only bidder to succeed himself.
 Holdover members of the City Council, who are not up for cleo tion at this time, are: Henry Mes serschmidt, Wallis George and Ralph H. Beistline. Holdover School Board members are R. E. Robert son and Grover O. Vim,
