Manders Deadly Accurate.

TAKE Manders of our Bears, pos
sibly the greatest. He had streak
of 160 out of 161 points after touch

the 40 and he's deadeye, or even dead

Clarke, the new Detroit coach, Pres
nell, of the same team. or Hinkle or
Niccolai, the Pittsburgh tackle.
So it isn't that we're not progress
sive. We try anything. We work
months on q trick play. One pro team
rehearsed trick play three years
before it clicked in a game. We're
experimenting all the time, but the
colleges, which get surer advantage,
must develop the coffin for tn" pres
ent.
And the colleges will be as success
full as the rising athletes are willing
to sacrifice spare time. Mills system
kicking Is as fine an art as pitching
in base ball.
I'm reminded of Kipke, the great
Michigan kicker, now coaching his
alma mater. He worked a half hour
daily each Summer, placing sweaters
at either end of the field, then kick
ing first for one, then the other.
It's worth a boys spare time If
he'll take it. Pitchers always get to
big league training camp ahead Of
the fielders, remember, so coaches and
players should give q lot of thought
to kicking practice during their
Spring training.

FULL H0USEAT NAVY
FOR VIRGINIA BOXING
Crowd Of 5000 to See Middies
Strive to Even Series With
Cavaliers Saturday.

A NNAPoL1s. Md. February Ii
Early in the week mo tickets to
the boxing available" was posted at the
athletic office of the Naval Academy.
which means that a crowd of around
5000 will pack the gymnasium Satur-
day to see the match between Virginia
and Navy. and that as many more
would gladly obtain tickets If they
could be found.
Outside Of foot ball game with the
Army, no athletic event means more
to Navy people than the boxing
matches against Syracuse, Virginia
and Penn State, the only teams which
have defeated Navy teams in the ring.
BY virtue Of victories in the last
three matches, the score now stands
3 to 2 in virginia's favor. The match
Saturday not only gives Navy a chance
to even the series, but also will be the
last home tilt this season.
After its victory over Syracuse last
Saturday Navy is reasonably confident.
There is little doubt as to six places
on the team, as follows:
lis. Al Barbee; 125, Macdonald
Thompson; 1876. Ed OHerron; 1865,
Jack Edwards; ITS. Skipper Giffen;
unlimited weight. AL Wallace.

migratory species such as lob
sters and oysters correc.
tion Of overfishing can only be
secured through legal regula-
tions.'
The foregoing refers, Of course, to
salt water migratory species, in which
class nearly all Chesapeake Bay fish
fall. For fresh water it is different
matter, and artificial propagation can
and admittedly does save them from
extinction. If the fish in question
cannot be increased by propagation,
why spend money to do something
that can't be done?
That should end the discussion right
there, but let's carry it bit further.
Law Difficult to Enforce.
TO BEGIN, they can't enforce such
a law. The expenses of COL
lecting the money and seeing that
every one fishing along the many
miles of Chesapeake Bay had license
would be prohibitive. So many game
wardens would be necessary that the
entire fund would be needed to pay
their salary. Anglers as a class are
law-abiding citizens, and most of them
would get their license without ques-
tion, but there are chiselers in all
groups, and the entire group would
have to be inspected and checked
practically every day.
A license fee would keep
many anglers away, which in
turn would cut into the revenues
Of boat captains and guides.
It is no trouble now to get group
to dash down to the bay almost any
good afternoon, but try 1t some time
when all those who go have to have q
license and it will be more difficult.
Washingtonians who have beach
cabins and cottages on the bay think
nothing Of inviting dozen or so of
the boys down for a week end Of fish,
ing, but it will not be such simple
cense for every one who comes.
The bill has not been introduced
in the State Legislature yet, but is in
process of being drawn. We are get
ting in our complaint ahead Of time
so we will not be caught mapping when
it does come up. If Maryland Is so
anxious to pass fishing laws, how about
tina black bass bill? How about nets?
There's something to work on instead
Of wasting q lot Of time seeking to
raise money for something that's i'm
possible In the first place.

Scientific Matings Stressed.


NEVER before has the value of line
breeding been so forcefully DEM
onstrated at a show as ii has at this
one. In breed after breed, the winners
prove to be the results of carefully
thought out, scientific matings. A
striking demonstration of this was the
winning in pointers. Winners dog
was Herewithem War Cloud by Here
withem Moscow's Ghost. Winner s
bitch was Herewithem Prairie Bell. a
little sister to the above. Best of breed
was Herewithem Moscow's Ghost,
which is the son Of Governor Moscow.
And Governor Moscow was the best
in 1925. All four of these dogs were
or are owned by Robert F. Maloney of
Pittsburgh.
Westminster always provides few
extras that are not listed in the cata-
logue. Among those OF the first day
was the arrest of a man on a charge
of grand larceny The accused man
was noticed by Mabel Turner, Pom
eranian exhibitor. when he acted sus-
piciously around the Pomeranian
benches. She tipped of house detec-
tive. who watched the man and al
lowed him to leave the building. Police
charge he carried Supreme Midget,
a Pomeranian owned by "A. w.
Freeth, under his coat. Outside, he
was arrested by a policeman.
Mrs r. H. Johnston Of Silver Spring

N ADlSON SQUARE GARDEN,
MI NEW YORK, February H.
The sixty-first annual show
Of the Westminster Kennel
Club fulfilled its aspiration of bigger
and better than ever" This year sees
the biggest entry ever piled up by this
club. 3,l46 dogs in 1929 entries, and
for first day. it Is estimated, there
was record gate.
One OF the high lights Of the first day
was the presentation of the Chapel
award to the person showing the most
signal devotion to the dog during the
year 1886. This years award, bronze
plaque, was given to Mrs. M. Hartley
Dodge Of Giralda Kennels and Morris
and Essex fame. In her remarks on &C.
cepting the award Mrs. Dodge empha-
sized the steadiness. the devotion and
the loyalty Of the dog.
A number of the less important
breeds were judged on the first day
and also several Of the most important.
including cocker spaniels, wire-haired
fox terriers and chowchows.
The best wire fox terrier was the
winner of the preceding days spe-
cialty show. the nearly all-white Flon-
nell Spicypiece Of Halleston, owned by
the Halleston Kennels of Chappa-
qua. N. Y.
The headliner among the elbows was
the renowned Far Land Thundergust,
owned by Mrs. William Mcfarland
This is the same dog that won the
group in Baltimore last week. An inter-
esting bit of deg show side play came
to light when this dogs son and closest
rival for show honors, Far Land Thun-
derstorm, owned by the Tally-Ho
Kennels, although defeated for best
of breed, nevertheless was awarded
first prize in the stud dog and get
class.
In Scottish terriers the Glenafton
Kennels are rapidly coming to the
fore. They won the speciality show on
Tuesday with one dog that came up
from the classes and then repeated
the trick at Westminster with FASH
ion Romance of Glenafton, a daugh-
ter Of Heather Fashion Hint, sire Of

But Sam, he told me, Is ready to

providing he wins. He's "a now, agile
as he was when he started playing
hand ball 20 years ago, master Of the
game and all that.
There comes a time" said Sam,
"when a halt must be called in every
branch of sports. I've travelled the
corners of the United States, won my
share of titles and seriously am con-
sidering quitting.
Don't be surprised if retire after
the national A. A. U. tournament in
