ship series by defeating Fort
Myer, 43-31, in a game at Fort
Meade last night.
The two teams will now meet
tomorrow to decide which will
clash with F't. Monroe for the
championship OF the entire area.
This game is scheduled at the
Heurich gym at 8 p. m.
Last nights game found Ft.

most important triumph. The
lead became so great that Ft.
Myer could not get near at all
during the entire milling. At
half time, the count was 23-18.
Vitkowski, Williams and Dotson
played best for Ft. Meade. Ryan,
with 10 points, led the losers.

FIST ING
ACCORDING to Isaak Waltonl

(According to IzadE WGlton)
Many sailfish were taken dur
ing the past two weeks at the
Long Key fishing camp. The
seasons records in the major spe-
cies, including sailfish, fell before
the onslaught of the largest group
of anglers to fish at that noted
resort in five years.
The sailfiSh list for last week,
totaling 10, was led with a 57E2'
pound specimen, Z feet II inches
long, taken by F. s. Arguimbau, Of
Merrick, L. l., who was the stellar
performer, also setting the season
mark for amberjack. Beside this
amberjack weighing so pounds, he
took also jacks weighing 4112, "a.
30, 20, 90 and 26 pounds, as well
as a 171a-pound wahoo. Last year
this angler caught in one day II
amberjack, the a1l.time record for
Long Key.
The large marlin are definitely
making their appearance adjacent
to Bimini as indicated by the
catch last week Of one weighing
176 pounds. Mr.. Raymond Rubi'
cam, of New York, took it on
heavy tackle from the cruiser
Black Jack, out of Palm Beach.
The largest sailfish entered so
far in the Miami Emblem Contest
is one of rs pounds caught by
D. D. Coe, of Holyoke, Mass. 1t
measured over eight feet in
length. It looks as if that will
be a pretty tough fish to beat
from the way they have been
running so far this year.
James A. Farley, our Post
master General, who just re-
turned from a visit to Miami, is
just like everyone else. Sooner
or later they get out on the Gulf
Stream after the big fish. But
unlike everyone, he took a 51A-
pound barracuda. Now that is
not the all-time record, but it
is the largest taken in many
years.

naval officer led at Al in the
first set, but Mangin rallied and
won five games in a row. Watt
was putting up a battle to keep
the match going in the second
set when Mangin registered the
winning point on a fluke shot,
the ball balancing atop the net
for an instant, then then rolling
down into safe territory.

through without dropping a set,

Garrett Waters the first school
of it's kind conducted by sandlot-
ters. At least the idea is first in
the recollection of this depart
ment.
Williams and Harries aren't 60
ing to attempt the entire school
themselves, however. 1t is their
plan to call on help from the out
Side-whenever it is possible
from such sources as newspaper
men, coaches of high schools, and
even big league ball players.
To Offer Talks
The chores of this latter group
will be to offer talks and instruc-
ton on baseball which, in the opin-
ion of Williams and Harries will
help all concerned in the carrying
out of the school plan.
While waiting for warmer
weather, it is the plan to use the
Takoma volunteer fire depart
ment gymnasium for lessons. Will
liams, a leading sandlot player in
the city and vicinity, will act as
one of the instructors while Har'
ries, former washington College
athlete, will be the other.
For the time being night classes
will be held at 1880 p. m. Inside
baseball will be the chief topic,
but where other instruction can
be made, it'll not be overlooked.
Interesting Idea
Heretofore, baseball schools have
been conducted by big league ball
players, or former stars Of the big
league.
Williams and Harries realize
their school will not come up to
that of a big league school, but
they do feel they know enough
about baseball to help the young
ster who knows something, but
would like to know more about
baseball.
Organization of classes is to
take place Wednesday. The first
instruction is scheduled Friday.
From then on, classes are to be
conducted every Monday, Wednes-
day and Friday. Incidentally,
many members of the Takoma
Boys Club have indicated their
intentions of joining the school.
From the interest already, a
large school is to be conducted.

Listen to this! Only five awards
were going to be made for the
second prize winners-that of
two tickets to the opening game
between the Griffmen and Phila-
delphia AS at Griffith Stadium,
April 16. But instead, 10 con-
testants are to get these awards,
pair of tickets to the opening
game.
The third prize-one ticket to
the same opening game listed
above-was to be earned by 10
contestants. But because the an

We had a real look at the
starting infield of the Griffs
yesterday morning. Joe Kuhel
was at first base. Myer at sec
ond, Larry at short and Travis
on third base.
Kuhel is jumping around first
base like a lightweight and is
sure death on ground balls and
short hops. He seems to be ready
for action. There are few better
first basemen in the league than
this same Kuhel.
The more we watch Sam Hol.
brook at the plate the more we're
convinced that he's a real hitter.
He just rides ball into the out
field. Looks like a sure fire 300
SWatter.
Inc bunClng practice continues
daily, but this observer thinks a
serious error is made in permit
ting the catcher to leave his place
behind the bat and take posi-
tion in the infield. The batters
invariably bunt toward the fielder,
and that isn't the idea at all. All
bunts should be placed so that
the third baSeman must field
them.
Sentiment is shifting slowly but
surely toward Frank Peticolas and
Harry Cappolas, the two young
right-handers. They have stepped
out ahead of Dick Lanahan and
Archie Scrivener, chiefly because
their control is better at this time.
Scrivener still remains a brilliant
prospect.
Lyn Larry seems to be freer at
the plate than this writer has
seen him in several years. He is
meeting the ball with less effort
and driving it with a deft flick
of the wrists that gives it velocity
for a trip through the infield.

There's something doing at
"Jimmie's."
"Jimmie's Place." the huge,
rambling old white building, part
~ hidden behind the billboards
along BladenSburg Road, just over
the Maryland State boundary line,
has become the center of consider
able secretive activity within the
last few days.
Automobiles can be seen enter
ing and leaving the grounds at
short intervals, and the ample
parking space within the grounds
Is always well filled.
AS a car turns off the highway
onto the new road cut into the
place from the Maryland side, it
disappears from view passing down
through the trees and foliage
which conceal the only entrance
to the grounds, a large driveway
through the billboards.
The driver leaves his car and is
approached by a Waterman and
asked for his Identification. En-
trance into the building is at
tanned only upon proper identifi-
cation. If one does not have his
own Identification, he may enter
provided that he is accompanied
by a friend who does have an
Identification. Otherwise he is
informed that the placed is closed.
This big white structure, sur
rounded by an old deserted house
on one side and the cemetery on
the other, has long been a place
of mystery. There were inSistent
rumors that Jimmie LaFontaine,
widely known sportsman, would re-
open, but nearby residents were
not quite certain whether or not 1t
had actually been reopened.
