seems that a court will probably
be set up on the play GROUNDS.
This library court has started out
a good many Of the citys players,
and many will hate to see it go-if

the court we see with a new layer

Here's one relayed that proves a

Pauuin and Sorenson were out
fishing and were getting their
share, when Paquin cast out and
wham something Of size hit his
line. He tugged and hauled, coax
ed but this monster seemed never
to tire nor make a break for the
surface. Certain that he must have
old Neptune himself they finally
backed the boat to the scene Of the
hold-out ashland 10 he had snag'
ged an underwater tree. He had
snagged a limb and it was the
spring of that limb that gave 1T 6
fishlike fight. But do you know
that they came back with a string
Of II nice ones Mrs. F. s. Par

Sunday when she and her hus.
band were out fishing. She caught
one Of the beauties of the season
in a SO inch northern pike tina
weighed perhaps ID pounds. Ant
she landed it herself :. Yol
know, sometimes it pays to taxi
mother out fishing. It's good fo'
her, too. So the other evening
Joe Frank took his mother, Mrs
Ann Sieben, out fishing. And 1
was the first time, it is reported
that she had been in q boat for Il
years. But time away from tn
lake does not dull the spirit TO
fishing it seems, for she caught {
nine-pounder that evening.

CYCLING SAFETY
 WORRY YTOSTATE
Front and Rear Deflectors Demanded fNew York
 Riders

Albany, N. Y. (UP)-The New York legislature is concerned over the safety of bicyclists. If pending bill is adopted, enthusiasl1s will have other things to worry about than merely pedaling.
 Under a bill recommended by Gov. Herbert H. Lehman, and sponsored by Motor Vehicle Commissioner Charles A. Harnett, bicycles are de- fined as vehicles consisting of an arrangement or combination of two wheels, one following the other, sup puorted by a frame, propelled by muscular power"
 To avoid hazards of night driv- ing. a series of safety devices are demanded, including:
 1-Suitable and adequate head lamp.
 2-Front and rear. refiectors.
 3-Suitable horn, bell or other de- vice to produce sound sufficiently loud to serve as a danger warning
 The bill would amend the vehicle and trafilc law by inserting provt- sions applying specifically to bi- cycles. Already existing regulation governing bicycle riding are consid- cred "stiff." They include:
 l--No riding on sidewalks. .ex- icept by children under 10.
 2-No passengers" permitted on handlebars. >ta
 3sThat at least one hand must be kept on the handlebars.
 Meantime the state tyafilc com. mission is considering the develop. 'ment of Q busy trafiic route in the state as a model highway" to be provided with uniform lights. signs and markings. ' (
 By concentrat ton of efforts on one highway" said the commissions i've win develop the theory of standardization in actual practice. and the model highway will :bs the pattern for other r0ads."
