his Interpretation Of the other
uses of a sports arena. such as
fighting and wrestling, were none
too glowing. He said, that as a
promoter Of those two refined ef-
forts, he paid rents in 1885 Of but
$14,579.25 and he doubted that
dividends could early be earned
through such figures on an extra
heavy investment.
Why, the biggest fight gates he
has enjoyed at his Tom Thumb
arena at Fourteenth and w Streets
was $4,000 on the Flrr-Wilson
fght and $4,000 on the O'Maho-
ney-Cox wrestling match. He and

Washington. And they can't be

FISHING
(AccOrding TO
Iznnk WDLtOn)

Judge william 8. Snow, member
Of the Virginia Commission, from
Alexandria, is fulfilling his prom
ises Of last fall to local anglers
for better fishing in Virginia coun-
ties adjoining the District. Vir-
ginia'S stream trout fishing opened
Wednesday.
In Wheelers Mil Run alone
thousands Of legal-sized trout have
been released and should supply
real sport. The same Is expected
Of many other streams.
It is authentically reported by a
native Virginian that knows his
streams, that most Of the stocking
in Wheelers Run has followed on
up the stream and is to be found
even as far up as the Wheeler
Place itself. The truth Of this OF
course will be found with the first
days fishing.
In case you want to try it-go
just 18 miles out the Leesburg Pike
it is almost impossible to miss 1t.
Our recommendation would be to
try the streams farther back in
the country. The publicity on this
particular stream will populate
it as was Fishing Greek in Fred
erick county on Maryland'S open
ing day-two anglers to every fish.
Every year the appropriation OF
approximately $4,000 for the en-
forcement of the black bass law
is cut out by the House and re-
instated by the Senate. It's the
old story this year.
The committee says 1t Ere
mains uncOnvinced Of the rea-
SON or wisdom in maintaining .
separate investigation force OF
two persons engaging them
selves In enforcing q law that
should be administered and en-.
forced in the same manner as
other penal statutes Of the Fed
eral Government"
AL you anglers who enjoy the
privilege Of being represented here
in Congress should use your right
of saying what you wish. Annual
appropriation of $4,000 for en-
forcement Of the black bass law Is
vital. Put your shoulder to the
angler. Put your shoulder to the
wheel by asking your Representa-
tive to support it.

EdBieber Breaks
Own InterCitY
Bike Record

There was no smile on Edgar
Bieber's face at the end Of his
Washington to Baltimore bicycle
race until-then, oh boy, what q
grin lightened his whole counten-
ance!
Milton Sencindiver, washington
representative Of the Amateur BIZ
cycle League Of America, strobe
up to Bieber. He told him he had
bettered his old record by l min
ute and A rs seconds.
Bieber couldn't believe 1t at
first on account Of all the OBJ
stacles he had experienced. But
it wasn't long before that smile
was all over his face. It had been
q grind, a tough grind, but he had
been successful.
All this happened yesterday
when young Bieber drove from
washington to Baltimore on q bi-
cycle. He started at the Capitol
and finished at the CourS House
Ia Baltimore.
He pedaled the distance in /
hour, 81 minutes and 81 is sec
ondS. AS to those obstacles, there
was a treacherous wind through
out his race. It was cold, too, and
there was plenty Of traffic on the
boulevard.
And, worst Of all, he had q
puncture just as he crossed the
District line. This neceSSitated
his starting all over again.
The record doesn't become Of
ficial until approved by the A. B.
L. A. contest board in New York.
Representative Sencindiver has
forwarded a complete report to
the body and within 10 days
should receive word as to its ap-
proval.

T EXTINCTION, KY, November "A
By the slimmest of margins, to
9. the Kentucky Wildcats defeated the
Clemson College Tigers here today
in one Of the hardest-fought games
ever seen on Stoll Field.
Kentucky chalked up its lone marker
In the second period and was hard
pressed from then ON.
Clemson tailed late in the fourth
quarter on drive that started on
the Tigers 4-yard line and saw two
mighty forward passes net 81 yards
for the Southern Conference eleven.
Kentucky's touchdown drive started
midway in the second quarter when
Bob Davis, fleet halfback, intercepted
a Clemson pass on his 1-yard line
and ran to midfield before being
dropped by Berry, Clemson quarter
back. Four successive plunges by Bert
johnson, Kentucky halfback, picked
up IL yards, and pass from johnson
to Davis was good for 80 to the
Clemson 6. On the next play johnson
plunged over and Simpson place
kicked what proved the winning point.

"I am not paying much attention
