~ OVEMBEH anglers seeking
nj rockfish may witness q sight
good for sore eyes by visiting
4 Solomons Island. These fish,
all pan size. weighing around w
pounds, many even smaller, may be
landed in large numbers on any calm
day.
Accompanied by Harry Black, Billy
Nishwitz and c. A. Tanner, we paid .
flying visit to Solomons Island Mon
day afternoon. The day was excel
lent for fishing. There was no wind
and the water was very calm. As we
neared Drum Point Light we saw the
gulls working close to the water in
many places. The fish were whirling
everywhere, at times jumping clear of
the water.
Capt. Rodney Langley, jr, who had
been out all day, had a very large
catch, one in the neighborhood of
125 or $50. Capt. Eddy Bowen could
be seen hauling in pan rock with great
regularity. Other boats appeared to
be doing well. We landed IA, but, of
course, did not get out until late in
the afternoon. Capt. Harry Wood
burn, our guide, said the fish had
been striking all day.
HICKORY or Winter shad, also
called the mud shad, have made
their appearance around Washington
in vast numbers, way ahead of their
scheduled time, as they usually show
up during January and February.
Lincoln Mackey. who operates the
store at the Virginia end OF Chain
Bridge. informs us that one man
snagged 500 of these fish yesterday.
They also are being caught along the
Georgetown Channel and in the Tidal
Basin.
Officials at the Bureau of Fisheries
are at a loss to understand why these
fish are present at this time Of
the year.
The hickory shad is more honey, il
possible, than the herring, but has
very sweet taste and is highly priced
by some anglers who eat them fresh
and also salt them, the same as is
done with the herring. The best
place to land them Is in the narrow
part of the river at Chain Bridge.
WE FEEL perfectly safe in sending
anglers to this well-nown fish,

= OMEBODY always Is picking on
Bill Ullman. The inventor of
the animal game, who usually
can handle himself on the golf
| course, went out with couple OF pals
| at Congressional and. thinking he was
/ in good hands, trusted himself to the
tender mercies of Bill Wenzel and
Jack McCarren. They didn't know
how to arrange a match, so they
ageed that Wenzel and Ullman should
play McCarren and get a handicap,
and then to equalize it, that Ullman
and McCarron should play Wenzel.
Looks as If you are in spot where
you can't lose,' McCarron told
| Ullman.
yep" said Bill, lit looks to me as
if I finally am going to play game
of golf without losing my shirt"
But it didn't work out that way, for
Bill lost. They split him up and Bill's
walls filled the air. He VOWS he will
get even with them in the animal
game, but meanwhile there is a grow
irg revolt against Bill's domination
of the game.
Ullman is a deadly clipper and an
equally good putter. No matter how
many strokes he takes to reach a
green he usually can contrive to get
down in one putt but when he deliber-
ately maneuvers for position to reach
the edge of the green for one putt
green, which pays off at the rate of
so cents per man, the other animal
game" players agree that something
Is wrong.
why not pay a premium to the
man who plays the hole correctly?"
they ask. If he gets on the green at
a par four hole in two shots and the
other fellows take three or four strokes
he should be rewarded"
Nothing doing" says Bill, the auto
crat Of the animals. They aren't
going to monkey with my game"
Something close to a record for
two rounds Of soggy golf course
was set yesterday by Roland Nc
Kenzie, who played two rounds at

n is, going in for watering the
~ f1lrways on its golf course.
4 \ experiments are about to be
made at the Columbia Country Club
In an installation of a watering sys-
TEN, and next year certain spots on
the course will have the benefit Of
watered fairways, if the plans of the
Golf Committee, as explained by
Chairman Martin r. West, are car
ried through during the coming
Winter.
Chevy Chase is the only local golf
course which has licked the hot
weather bogey through watered fair
ways. All through the hot Summer
months, when almost all the local golf
courses suffered from sparsely covered
fairways, Chevy Chase golfers played
over green stretches of watered grass.
And now Columbia is going in for
watered fairways, but the installation
is not to be made over the entire golf
course, according to West. Certain
spots on some of the holes are to be
chosen for the initial piping, and if
the fairway watering system works
out well, it will be installed over the
entire course.
Ready to Begin Work.
WEST has not yet designated the
Nv holes or the spots where the
watering system will be installed, but
he explains authorization has been
given to 60 ahead with preliminary
work, and next year may find some
of the portions of that fine golf course
benefited by the mechanical moisten-
ing.
The installation of fairway water
Ing system at Chevy Chase has worked
out very well, and at small cost to the
club. The original cost ran around
$4,000, and operation costs have been
small. Each golflng member of the
club was assessed small fee to cover
the installation and operating costs,
and the golfers have been rewarded by
course which remained green and
soft during the Summer when other
courses were being burned up by the
hot sun.
U. S. G. A. FavorS Courses.
CHEVY CHASE and the Five Farms
course of the Baltimore Country
Club are the only layouts in this sec
tor which have fairway watering sys-
TENS in use.
Neither Chevy Chase nor Columbia.
Is in the market for a national cham
pionship, and probably neither clubs
will bid for such tourney. but for
many years the United States Golf
Association has chosen only courses
with watered fairways for its national
title events. tipof that the U. S.
c. A. regards fairway-watered courses
as the only courses fit for big tourna-
