Good news for the fisherboys., It looks as if the trout season would be extended this year. And with the added weight of the Fish and Game Board we presume that the legislative solons will smile their ap- proval and tell the trouters to bring 'em in a mess after April 15, the official opening date Incidentally this will remain the opening date, the extension coming on the other end. There may be chance that the first two weeks in July won't offer much fishing if the weather is too hot, but at least it will give chance to nab some of, the big ones before they get away from our stocked streams.

~HICAGO, February GA 20
4 year-old star with at least one
" world record in his system, is
one the loose in the Big Ten.
He is Jesse Owens, colored sopho-
more from Ohio State. He has his
eye on the world broad jump record,
and his coach, Larry Snyder, and
Eastern experts who have seen him,
believe he will take it. He already
holds the world indoor mark for the
event, rs feet 3la inches, set in the
1888 national indoor A. A. U. cham
pionship meet at New York.
Snyder, former Ohio State hurdles
star, regards the Buckeye Comet as a
mortal cinch to bring the world out
door record back to the United States.
He believes it possible that Owens
may crack the world standard Of 26
feet 21s inches, held by Chuhei
Nambu Of Japan, before the year is
over. In recent dual meet with
Illinois, Owens got of a rousing leap
Of IS feet 101a inches, but fouled by
a tiny fraction. He won the event,
however, with 25 feet inches
He is a great sprinter, holder Of
national prep records Of 9.4 seconds
for the 100 yards, and 20.7 seconds
for 220 yards, and although he hasn't
given the event much attention,
Owens has cleared 6 feet 4 inches in
the high jump. On top Of all that,
he can gallop a very presentable
quarter mile, and is fine hurdler.

Apropos of this subject Dorothy Dix
recently published an answer to a 15-
year-old boy on the subject Of the
kinship between boy and dog that
will probably take its place with other
immortal tributes to the dog. Among
other things she said: Dogs are just
as necessarily part of a boys educa-

teaching him to be kind to animals
and to have an understanding and
sympathy with all dumb creatures Is
the lesson they drive home. Dogs
teach by their examples, far better

North Carolina an odds-on favorite.
Other teams in the loop, however,

not forgotten how last year WASH

out the winher.
Duke and North Carolina State are
teams especially likely to give the Tar

for the lone defeat, and North Caro-

1HERE are various schools Of
thought on the subject Of
worming dogs and puppies.
l. There are people who believe
young puppies should be worm
ed every week or two until maturity
and thereafter every month until
death. There are people who never
worm puppies or grown dogs. There
are others who have their dogs drop
pings microscopically examined peri
odically and then worm or do not
worm accordingly. That is probably
the best way to do it, but it is a
method that few people are tempera-
mentally equipped to follow.
1t undoubtedly is true that puppies
are born with worms. Those few that
are born worm-free soon acquire them
as the worm eggs are present on the
mothers body. However, unless the
signs are unmistakable and the puppy
seems too weak to survive unless
wormed, it is best not to worm until
the puppies are six weeks old. They
should be wormed again at three
months and again at six months,
then every six months thereafter.
There are many vermifuges on the
market, most of which give good re-
suits If the directions with them are
followed carefully. .Those which I
