Of 10 guns as o greeting to Gov. Nice
as he arrived aboard the yacht Du
Pont.
The idea Of the fair, which was
sponsored by the Chesapeake Bay
Fishing Fair Association, was to see
who could catch the largest fish in
each of the main species usually found
in the bay, and prizes and trophies
were waiting at Tilghmans Island for
the lucky anglers. The date for the
gathering had been set in the early
Spring, when the association first
was organized, but officials could not
have picked better day for it. so far
as the weather was concerned, if it
had been made to order.
The fish weren't biting so well in
spite Of the perfect weather, but every
method Of sport fishing was used
cumming, trolling, still fishing and
drifting-and several good catches
were recorded.
THE Gooses cover an area Of Is
square miles, but much of the
available fishing space was in use
You may have been there before when
1t was crowded, but have you ever
had q cruising band of hill-billies to
serenade you. and have you ever been
able to buy hot dogs, soda pop and
other refreshments while fishing for
blues, rock, trout and hardhead? Well,
all that and more was going on Sat-
urday.
1t was really q very colorful sight.
The bay was smooth, the sun was
shining brightly, and all boats were
decorated with gaily colored flags and
pennants. In spite Of all the excite
ment and music, some very serious
angling took place. Each fish as 1t
was hauled in was eagerly compared
to those already caught, and received
special attention if it happened to
exceed them in size. Even the lowly
toadfish, usually killed and thrown
back. was saved on the chance that
it might receive prize.
When six shots were fired from the
Pamlico at noon, a signal for fishing

from the national noggin-knocking
picture, but like Ann Corio, the South

patrons at Grifith Stadium.
Somewhere in Phil's mental makeup
is hiding the vital spark that might
send him to the top in the beak-bust-
ing business. Physically, he's as well
equipped. If not better, than 80 per
cent of the boys in the welterweight
division, but thus far the application
of his boxing tools has failed to carve
much Of q niche in the fight game.
An excellent local drawing card, 1t

sustained attack. Rarely is he gToggy.

fresh, appearing as If he might be

1T is this wasted surplus energy,
that, If used, probably would aid
Fur in climbing dstianas greasy
ladder. He's pleasing puncher when
Tipping fists to the limit Of his capa-
bilities, but he seldom extends himself.
Nearly always he deals out the same
quota Of punishment and apparently
is willing to win or lose on that basis.
Phil always has something left when
he returns to his corner after fight.
There's always the feeling that he
might have done better-that there's
plenty Of dynamite in his mittens that
wasn't exploded. His fistic future
would be enhanced with q bit more
effort.
Against the beetle-browed Leto,
Fur, with a 7-pound weight ad-
vantage, reach and height in his favor,
failed to score an upset merely be-
cause he fought his usual fight, miss
ing knockout opportunities and coast
ing after staggering his opponent.

PiccadiIiy Fred was gambling when

I guess the pride of Pail Mall was
thinking some such thought when he
walked out there on the court. He
looked tense and nervous. He played
tensely and nervously. He realized
that several thousand dollars were

he almost lost the decision. He came
