TINE two schools OF thou9ht on
the proper method Of getting
the most sport from blusfsh-
= ing will almost invariably get
into an argument whenever q few
fishermen meet and start talking over
the different angles Of their hobby.
The subject has never been decided cns
way or another and probably never
will be. There II too much to b said
on both sides.

blues are caught that way and II Aoes
not figure in the discussion-vabout
half want to 60 trolling and the rest
want to chum. The chumming adye.
cate says that only small ones viii take
a moving lure, that you have to uss .
heavy sinker and this takes half tbs
fight out of the fish, that the forward
motion Of the boat spoils what sport
they might have had, and that the
engine noise frightens them all away
anyway.
At this point the trolling advocate
rises and by sheer lung power ailences
his adversary. "Chumming," he says,
is messy business that smells up the
whole bay. BY the time blue gets up
to the chum line he is 20 full Of food
that he can't put up any argument Ut
all, and I, for one. would Just q soon
go after hardheads. And that 10 about
all we'll get. hardheads and trout.
And those bait stores might - well
use q gun, they get our money anyway,
the prices they charge for chum."
This writer crept away unnotaced in
the general melee, and latest reports
coming from the battle fronts indicate
that they are still at 1t.
SERIOUSLY though, there b much
- to be said on the subject. You tust
have to decide which method to use
when you see the water. 0snefally
trolling Is fairish enough In the early
morning and during the heat Of the

CONTRAST, the SO,

IN CONTRAST. the speculating
barometer OF the womens tourna-
ment fails to show much variance,
inasmuch as Sara Moore. last year S
winner and prospective favorite, leads
q small field into action. Barred from
the public parks tournament by their
ahiliation with clubs, most of the
city's outstanding fair racketers will
be conspicuous by their absence.
Only two players appear likely TO
cause Sara concern. One Of them is
her doubles partner. Dorette Miller,
and the other that never-failing eX-
ponent of good sport. Mary Ryan. For
the f1rst time in four years Bobsey
Turrey will not be entered in q local
woman's tournament, the little game

in the mems tournament, this observer
herewith will go out on a limb and
name Nate Ritzenberg, the profess
sionally- inclined young man, as the
lad to beat. UndHputed junior cham
pion of the city for three years from

had home grounds last time.
The main mop-ups for the United

Stacking Them Up.

START1NG with the games OF l9Oo,
~ held in Athens, the United States
has crushing advantage, no matter
what system you use for scoring. In
the Olympics up TO date, the United
States has landed 102 firsts at track
and field. Finland runs second with
20 flrsts and Great Britain follows
with II.
Finland's record is remarkable when
YOU consider her numerical diSadvan-
tage. The greater part Of F1nland's S
Olympic glory has come from the
longer runs and the javelin, where
the United States has been outclaSsed.
Great Britain's main bid has been
in the middle distance gallops. Her
specially has been 800 meters. Hill,
Lowe and Hampson have taken charge
of this race since Ted Meredith won
in 1916, 20 years ago. We haven't
won at 1900 meters since Mel Shep-
pard slipped away in 1908. 1t has

Woodruff will be hard to collar at 800
meters with that kangaroo stride, but
it can be done. Cunningham and
San Romani have an even harder job
at $500. The longer races belong on
dope to the Firms and Poles. We have
