the Chesapeake Bay and its tributar-
les by the millions.
2. There's been too much chum-
ming. The Middles is one vast sea Of
chum, spilled overheard by the dozens
of bushels and left to float and smell
So by this time new chum won't lure
the wary sport fish.
3. The moon has been on the wane
but now its turned up.
4. The weather has been too hot.
ONE reason why fishing is gooe
only occasionally even in the
lower Potomac is that the operations
of the Reedsville, Va, commercial
fishermen are too thorough.
Reedsville is devoted to the fertilizer
industry. and its populace spends its
days either SEEMING fish, drying fish
grinding the bones of the dried fish OF
packing the ground bones.
To keep this business going fish by
the millions are required. For fer
tilizer purposes, the alewife or the
sinner, useless to the sportsman, are
every bit the equal of the blue, the
rock, the hardhead or the trout. The
bones of one have as much calcium
as the bones of the other.
But the Reedsville seine-haulers
exercise no discrimination. They
sweep the river with their nets, haul
ing up 10 tons of all kinds Of fish at
once. which they toss into their live
boxes and haul down to the bone
grinder
When this operation is repeated
eight or 10 times day, it is easy to
understand why the fish for the
angler are scarce.

blues averaging IA pounds apiece.
The Pennsylvanians were delighted.
Piney Point men were astonished. 1t
is about the best catch recorded this
year in that part of the fishing
world.
They used large Huntington drones
and will swear by them the rest of
their lives.
Rock are still plentiful off Piney
Point. Use a June-bug spinner and
bloodworms and you will hook plenty
of the pan-size fellows, almost more
than you can handle.
THE luck of the five from York,
however, has not been shared by
all who try the lower Potomac. You
have to spot your blue before you can
catch it, and few of them are exposed
to the naked eye.
The reason for their absence, and
for the generally poor fishing Of the
last week, was attributed by one med
ical angler, DR.. Paul Hatch, to four
reasons:
l. Too many bait fish are available
for the blues to stuff themselves on.
Alewives and sinners are swimming

have in my time listened to the
means and groans of base ball. golf,
tennis and boxing champions, but
their highest note was octaveS below
that of the gridiron masters.
For the past two weeks have been
nous coaches as Elmer Layden Bernie
Bierman, 30 McMillin, Ray Morrison
and Lou Little, and, were it not for
my inherent skepticism, I would go
shopping for pistols, daggers and
poison so they could Immediately put
an end to their miseries.
PeSsimism of coaches may be par
TALLY excused on professional grounds,
but when the disease extends even to
the children of foot ball coaches, and
distorts their youthful outlook on life,
it is high time for juvenile courts and
other organization for infant welfare
to take hand.
Talks Like Coach Himself.
ONE day recently I encountered
Bill herman, the 13-year-old son
of the famous Minnesota coach. Bill
was happily engaged hitting ball
with paddle until asked: Bill
what sort of a team will Minnesota
have this Fall?" A panied expression
appeared on the youngsters face, and
throwing down his implements OF
childish fun, he replied:
oh! We won't do so well this
year. Probably only half as well as
last year" LAST year Minnesota won
eight games and national champion
ship.
why, what teams can beat Mime
sota?" asked with some surprise
Just Washington, Nebraska, North
western and, maybe, Iowa or Purdue.
We can't do very we'll this year. You
see, we are going to be weak at center,
at one tackle and guard, and we
won't have much of q fullback The
boys will be green and we have to
play Washington and Nebraska the
first two games of the season. It's
going to be tough
If I am correct, Bierman Pere said
something of the same sort only a
few hours before, but I never put
much credence in the August pes
simiSm of a coach. I have been mis-
led too often by that sort of talk,
and particularly by Elmer Layden,
who is champion at losing games
in August and at winning them in
October and November. But I never
expected such propaganda from inno-
cent children.

Sought Bierman First.

TULANE'S initial step after casting
off Cox was to try to induce Bernie
Bierman, former GREENE coach, to
leave his post at Minnesota and re-
turn to New Orleans. Failing in this
move, Tulane took Bierman's recon-
menation and hired Dawson.
Glenn Seidel, quarterback of the
1885 Minnesota eleven, will serve as
Dawson's backfleld instructor, and Bill
Bevan, all-America guard of the 1884
Gopher line, will coach the Waves
forward wall.
Concluding its experiment with an
all-alumni staff, Florida signed Josh
Cody former Clemson coach and as
sistant to Dan McGugin at Vanderbilt
for many seasons, to three-year con-
tract as gridiron pilot and athletic di-
rector. Lewie Hardage, also a former
Vanderbilt star and assistant coach,
will aid Cody.

GRAIN MEN EXPECT
BEAR|SH REPORT
Estimates Likely to Make
Liberal Allowance for
Drought Breakup.
BY JOHN p. BOUGHAN,
Associated Press Market Editor.

CHICAGO, May 9.-All eyes in the
grain trade now are watching for the
Government crop report Monday. and
many are the gueSseS the report will
prove bearish.
Belief prevails in various quarters
that the Monday official estimates of
1885 domestic Winter wheat produc-
ton will make liberal allowance for
breakup of drought in the South
west and West, notwithstanding sud-
den advent Of timely moisture did not
take place until after the fixed date
for detailed individual crop reports
was past.
Whether or not this belief turns out
to be correct, friends of higher prices
for wheat appear generally willing to
admit that because of drought relief
which bordered on dramatic the ex-
isting market conditions are not
especially encouraging at present for
any important bull move.
Compared to a week ago, wheat
prices this morning varied from 5
cents bushel setback to 4 cent gain.
with corn I. of to ss up, oats, Isa3l
advanced. and provisions at 81 TO a
cents decline.
Sharpest downturns Of wheat prices
are in May contracts. not new crop
futures, although stocks on hand here
have been steadily diminishing. Con-
tinued liberal receipts Of wheat at
Kansas City and Minneapolis, how
ever, have revealed larger country
reserve supplies than were generally
supposed possible, and there has been
a drastic reduction of prices for hard
wheat relative to futures
Another unsettling influence is talk
current that the Canadian Govern
ment Grain Board policy seems to be
to keep on selling wheat as fast as
any one will buy it.
Corn and oats markets are upheld
largely by big shipments of corn from
Chicago via the Lakes.
Provisions reflect weakness of hog
values and Of cottonseed oil.
