considerable damage to the seventh

Decision Of the Chevy Chase Club

note among many of the golfers. Tom
Belshe, former president of the Dis

TILT IN RICHMOND
Meet Best of Winter Golf
Tourney Talent in Play
Starting Today.
BY the Associated Press.


~ ICHMOND, Va, April 10.-A
- weather-beaten band of ma
II tionally prominent golfers.
reinforced by the cream of
Virginia and Washington talent, head
ed today into 72-hole attack on par
in the $4,000 Richmond open over the
soggy James River course of the Coun-
try Club of Virginia.
The schedule called for SO holes to-
day and the same number tomorrow
for the A entries paired last night.
Late arrivals were expected to swell
the list to more than SO.
Harrassed by relentless cold weather
and rain since the first of the year,
the crack professionals and amateurs
who have been rowing the South for a
series of Winter and Spring tourna-
ments, will disband after the Rich
mond open tor regional events and
private practice in preparation for the
United States open in June.
Renewal Of the Augusta masters
feud between Horton Smith, winner of
that water-soaked event, and Harry
Cooper, loser by one stroke, held the
major interest here.
The James River course is literally
dotted with natural hazards. Par for
each nine Is 36. The links record in
competitive play was set last year by
Johnny Morris, Birmingham schoolboy,
who carded SO in qualifying for the
Southern amateur.

~ FF to an early start in his 1885
golf campaign and a possible
berth on the Walker Cup
~ team, Roger Peacock, District
amateur golf champion, now week
end golfer, has his game geared up to
midseason form already and is due to
knock over all amateur records this
year for the Congressional Country
Club course. where he will do most
of his divot- lifting. Last Fall Roger
left Indian Spring, where he learned
the game as a black haired kid Of IA
years. and joined Congressional, and
shortly before the first Of the year he
grabbed himself a Government job.
Roger has been on the job ever since,
but his golf game hasn't suffered by
the layof from the frequent practice
sessions he used to have back Of the
Indian Spring golf shot. where he did
a lot Of sweating and wore calluses
on his hands trying successfully to
out erring iron shots.
TODAY Roger Peacock is, whether
you believe it or not, one of the
better aspirants for the amateur
championship crown relinquished by
Lawson Little last week We've seen
lot of good amateurs play golf (all of
'em, in fact), and Roger Peacock looks
as good as any of 'em. That he is as
good despite Washington's lack of golf
weather over the last three months,
he proves every time he steps out, as
witness the II and 73 he batted out
over his last two rounds at Congress
sional two rounds which happen to
level off at exactly par for the course.
The Peacock boy is a darned good
golfer, any way you take him. and
there is going to be new Peacock
in the few tournaments he will play in
this year. For one thing, he is happier
In his new job than he has been for
some time. Little annoyances and
uncertainties which robbed his game
of some of its effectiveness last year
have vanished. and Roger no longer
is fighting mental jinx. Some warm
day within couple of months the
Peacock man is going to step out and
do himself about a IS or 66 at Con-
gressional, and bust the amateur rec
ord all to smithereenS. He Is good
enough to do just that.
Down at Richmond today quite a
flock of our more eminent professional
sharpshooters from Washington start

tourney over the James River course

his own golf tournament, and diminu-

boys get along all right that he prob
ably will finish in the money, but

r rs A hard job trying to keep track
of the varying moods of the Poto-
mac River in the vicinity of Chain

mac River IN the vicinity OF Chdln
Bridge. 1t again has been affected
by the recent rains, but Joe Fletcher
informs us that the muddy water
makes little difference in catching
white perch. There is, of course. a
very heavy current, but 1t is not neces-
sary to fish in the middle Of the river.
Perch may be caught just as we'll in
shallow water, either from a boat or
from the rocks.
Fletcher said that large number
of the so-called "humpback" perch
are being caught. These are Of the
larger variety. but. according to the
same source, they are not as sweet as
perch running about one-half a
pound.
Last year there was an unprece-
dented hatch of rockflsh in .Chesa-
peake Bay and its tributaries. Several
weeks ago Is tons of these gamesters
were landed in the nets on Colonial
Beach. one net containing 2 tons in
one haul. Therefore, we are Of the
opinion that when the river clears We
will have a good heavy run of rock
fish to the swift waters of the Potomac
this side Of Chain Bridge.
The white perch are being caught
with bloodworms, but little later they
will also be tempted with the use Of
crabs and minnows. The rockfsh, es-
pecially the small ones. also are eager
for the bloodworms. but the larger
ones undoubtedly will be taken with

THE Anne Arundel County Fish and
Game Association is planning to
stock the county streams and fields.
At a meeting recently in Annapolis,
William j. Vanous, chairman of the
Fish Committee, reported much prog
ress already has been made.
He reported the following plant
ings of bass: 800 in the Annapolis
Reservoir, 200 at the head of the
Magothy River. $50 in Water Ford
Pond, near Pasadena $50 at the
head of Severn River and also 78
pike in the same waters. Brook
trout planted were 200 in Severn
Run, 200 in Stony Run and $50 in
Saw Mill Branch at Glen Burnie.
Vanous said that trout also had
been obtained for Southern Maryland
streams.
The Fish Committee has made ar
rangements to seine the Annapolis
Reservoir for removal of catfish and
carp. These two species, it is said,
cause fish taste in the water during
the Summer months. 1t is hoped
also to seine lake at Mayo, so that
it may be stocked with game fish
The association has instructed FL
mer M. jackson, jr. to attempt to

are carefully investigated as to their
food content, clearness of water and
accessibility before the fish are
planted.

zone play at the River Oaks courts.
Grant, Atlanta's mighty mite, who
vanquished Capt. Wilmer Allison in

And although the individual may not always re-

policies. Each is lined up one side the other
of grave issues which are important to the welfare
of the country Such being the case, the member is

friendly their community relationship may be- The
first favors a reduction of ornaments; the second
wants bigger Navy and Army. The former believes
in collective efforts toward international peace and
