FISHING
According to Izaak Walton

According TO 1Zaak WaItOn
Maryland trout season opened
yesterday with cooling breezes
and lowering skies to discourage
the army of anglers who played
"hookey from work and school.
The deputy game warden, Ben
Phoebus, of Frederick, who super
vised the two largest streams, esti-
mated over 1000 anglers were on
hand to try their luck. Some
were satisfied, some were not.
Bait fishing accounted for most
of the trout taken, and some were
caught on flyS. From our own
experience, we would say that
about so per cent of the fish
stocked were taken out the first
day.
Brown trout for the first time
formed a substantial part of the
catch. Fish up to 10 inches were
lured with minnowS and worms.
Many anglers voiced demand
that at least one stream be closed
to everything but fly fishing, as
the supply of fish is totally made
quate for the demand.
At midnight, just as the season
was opened, an announcement was
made that added interest to the
sport. The Silver Springs roller
skating rink offered a 16-inch sill
yer cup to the angler-man, wo-
man or child-Who landed the
largest trout of any species in
Fishing Creek during the 1886
season, all fish to be weighed and
measured at C. B. Wizards sport
ing camp on Fishing Creek. Fish
are to be caught by rod and reel,
and in the event of a tie length is
to override weight. The judges
will be Lem Kreh and Henry H.
Uncle Henry" Brown.

National Duckpin Bowling Con
gress, is confident the Washing.
ton MaSons will trim the Hartford
Masons in their three-game match
Friday, April 10, at the Wooster
Alleys, Hartford, Conn.
Burrows, who is a prominent
bowler on the local aggregation,
believes the Washingtonians carry
a little more dynamite in their
arms than their Hartford frater-
nifty brothers. Charlie Phillips,
John Ulrich, George Stevens and
Ed Cleary will be the other start
ers for the District outfit. These
boys are in tip-top condition, as
they have been bowling three
days a week since the season
started.
Talk about your races, well,
there is a race of races going on
in the Columbia Heights League.
With only two weeks of bowling
left on the program, Highway En-
gineerS and HeSSick Coal are tied
for first place with At victories
and 81 defeats. Galliher & HUI
guely are second with As triumphS
and 80 setbacks, and Vincent Bar
bers and Arcadia are deadlocked
for third position with As wins
and 80 reverSalS.
With Grand Central Valet and
Heurich Brewers deadloCked for
first place tangling at Georgetown
Recreation and Occidental ReStau-
rant one game behind the leaders

vention Hall, interest will be para
mount as the District League

Freschi for the individual title.
Harrison, defending champion for
two consecutive years, is eight pins
in front of Freschi with an av-
erage Of 1912.
Winning three games from Ma
tional Beer last night, Lucky Strike
today tops the Ladies District
League by one-game margin
over Rosslyn girls, who dropped
into second place by losing game
to Swanee.
Rolling but 459 the Luckies'
first-game win was in striking con-
trast to the RoSslyn'S lone defeat
when two one-pin spare counts
cost them the decision by one
stick, 533 to 532.
Lorraine GULL, the Lucky Strike
captain, nosed out Lucille Young
for high-set honorS with 377 to
375 for the Swanee anchor roller.
Convention Hall bested Arcadia
twice in the three skirmishes as
Capt. Mabelle Herring shot III and
321. Billie Butler with 131 and
$50 led the Bill Wood sweep over
Northwest Temple. Virginia Cal

ALMSHOUSE INMATES

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Nov. A.
(UP).-The Tennessee Planning
Commission is expected shortly to
disclose findings of a new survey
on public and private institutions,
now nearing completion after a
summer of research.
DR.. w. B. Jones, Jr., University
of Tennessee sociologist, here to
check the agriculture, vocational
and industrial schools, revealed
some of the facts already estab-
lished by the TPC staff.
There are approximately $500
people in Tennessee almshouseS,
of whom at least &C per cent will
be eligible for benefits under state
social security laws to be passed
by the next legislature, DR.. Jones
found. OF the total, 80 per cent
are eligible for old age pensions
and 10 per cent for benefits due
dependent children.
When Tennessee'S social secur-
itv program becomes effective, it
will result in the closing of APP
proximately so per cent of the
states poorhouseS - if Alabama's
situation may be applied as cri-
terion.
A survey in Alabama revealed
that 63 almshouses were required
before the Social Security Act was
passed. Shortly after the legisla-
ton was enacted 81 almshouses
were closed and now - are soon
to be eliminated.
