By the Associated Press.
DES MONIES, Iowa, June "a
Americas swimming. stars, their
Olympic hopes bolstered by six record
breaking performances in the National
A. A. U. meet here, moved east to New
Haven, Conn, today to prepare for
the final Olympic trials at Providence,
r. l., July 10.
Approximately IS Of Uncle Sans
leading mermen will practice under
the direction of Robert Kiphuth of
Yale, the American Olympic coach.
This will be the first time the pros
pective team has had any lengthy Or
ganized drill before the Olympic
Games.
The aquatic aces concluded their
A. A. U. competition here yesterday,
adding two new American marks to
the books. They had established three
other American marks and bettered a
world record during the first two days
Of the meet.
Ralph Flanagan Of the Greater
Miami Swimming Club, won three
events during the competition. He
created new American marks In the
440 and $50 yard free style after win

ing taken care of by the placing of
about 100000 fingerlings in Hartford,
Baltimore, Garrett, Allegany and
Washington Counties. Frederick, Ann
Arundel, Montgomery and Carroll
will be stocked in the near future.
A BOUT 1900 fingerling rainbows
have been placed in Jeremys Run
In the Springfield district of Virginia
by H. w. Kelly. game warden of Page
County. Jeremys Run, with its source
in the Blue Ridge Mountains, is one
of the favorite trout streams of Vir-
einia.
A strong southwest wind blowing
across the bay yesterday kept down the
sizes of most catches, but still every one
got enough to supply meal or two.
Rough water had the boats bobbing
around so much that it was difficult to
keep sinker on the bottom and the
bait still enough to give the fish
chance to investigate much less grab
of mouthful.
Trolling for rock in the Patuxent
turned out to be popular sport
though and several notable hauls were
recorded. One of Capt. Harry Wood
burns boats brought in 35 from
around Cedar Point and these ran
rather small as to size, averaging about
two pounds. They also were being
caught up in the river, but these were
mostly small ones.
SATURDAY was the day. Each boat
~ from around Solomons brought
in at least 100, and many returned
with twice that number. With the
rock biting as they are now. it will be
worthwhile to take some bloodworms
and spinners and go after them. Troll
ing Is much more sport than still fish,
ing and you might catch a venture
some blue that has strolled up ahead
Of the pack, even though it is too early
to expect them.
We had no wind in Washington, but
we did have cloudy water in the Po-
tomac, and nothing but those old re-
liable catfish were taken. The river
Is clearing rapidly, and by this after
noon crappies and bass should be Bit

nows, crickets and worms as bait and
tiresome messy job of sitting around in
the sun and waiting. Several local
anglers have discovered, however, that
they may be taken on fly rods using
small trout flys and spinners. We saw
two crappies caught last week on a
fly rod just above Chain Bridge at
the mouth Of that flume coming from
the Dalecarlia Reservoir.
It's much more fun that way, and
you don't have to go all over the place
hunting for minnows and crickets.
It's usually best, though, when using
hys. to find place where the water
is not so swift. If you are fishing
swift waters it might be worthwhile
to try a new plug that resembles the
river runt, only smaller. An almost
necessary adjunct to crappie fishing
is small landing net, as these fish
have very soft mouths that sometimes
tear from the hook when lifted from
the water.
A W. P. A. project In Philadelphia
= starts us wondering If possibly
something like it couldn't be done
around here. An allotment of s11 900
has been made to convert four miles
Of WiSSahickon Brook, which runs
through the city, into a well-stocked
trout stream. Why couldn't that be
done to Rock Greek?
Rock Creek runs through the Dis
trict for about miles, of which
about four are above the Zoo, and
would make a perfect setting for
trout fishing with plenty of deep pools,
rocky hide-outs and swift, clear water.
Right now the creek is polluted for
most of its length, but all that could
be taken care of as a necessary part
of the project. A license fee of from
So to IS would cover part of the cost
OF upkeep. One thing though, II Rock
Creek ever is made into a trout stream
1t would be best if nothing but fly
fishing be permitted.
There is no use presenting argu-
ments for making fly fishing more
easily available for those who now
are unable to enjoy the sport. We
have to hunt all over Virginia, West
Virginia, Maryland and even as far
as Pennsylvania for good trout
streams, while all the time we have
right here In Washington an almost
perfect stretch of water easily reached
from any point In the city. All it
needs is a little stocking and clearing.
