City when that spot, still very much
of newcomer in the sporting world
Of big-game angling. can attract
such reputable and experienced skip
pers as Capt. Lance.
He already has shown that
he can find fish. Late last
week he guided a party from
Salisbury, Md, which took in
So blues and l bonita.
That is one of the best catches
TO date at the popular Maryland
resort. Capt Lance also has raised
a marlin, but the big spikesnout was
just straggler and not interested
in feeding at the moment. The mar
lin season is getting under way,
though, with more and more being
sighted every good day. Other types
of fishing there are of course tops,
with blues at their height. Trout
are the biggest in years, running
from to 10 pounds.
During the summer season at
Ocean City, st. Mary's Catholic
Church will hold special mass for
fishermen every Sunday at am.
The mass is designed to permit
anglers to attend church on Sunday
and still make the early start neces-
sary to reach the marlin grounds by
daylight.
Association Holds Outing.
Tomorrow is the big day for the
washington Typewriter Dealers As
sociation. The outfit is holding its
annual picnic, get together, jam
boree and funfest at Solomons. Fea-
ture of the outing. of course, will be

the idea is to see who can get the
largest fish. Currently at Solomons
are hardhead, a few trout and
every now and then some big rock.
So the typewriter dealers should be
able to reel in some nice ones.

luncheon of the IZaak Walton

Special Dispatch to The Star.

BALTIMORE, Md, June 90
Two Washington sportsmen have
new pieces of silverware for their
trophy rooms today as a result of
spectacular victories scored here
yesterday in the final day of the
annual Star Spangled Banner Re-
gatta.
Andy Crawford, light-haired
speedboat pilot, jockeyed his Ed
mandy Nv to victory over a choppy
course in the 135-cubic-inch hydro
plane class, and Bill Heintz sailed
his recently launched arrow class
sloop to a well deserved victory in a
l5-mile jaunt to Rock Greek, Md,
and return.
Handling his craft in expert fash
ion, Heintz negotiated the distance
in 2 hours and 7 minutes, nosing out
Harry and Wayne Neild, sailing the
Vingtrois. Favorable winds aided the
contestants.
Crawford sent his mahogany
hulled speedster spinning around the
smile course three times in taking
his event, then came back later in
the day in a record breaking exhi-
bition that saw him go the distance
at 48-mile clip, 3 miles within the
world record.
Washington narrowly missed scor-
ing third victory when 12-year -old
Bache Gill, jr, the country's young
est outboard competitor, got off to
a poor start in the midget class and
finished third.
A near-tragedy was averted in
Glass K power boat trials by the
GOODNESS of John Brambel, who kept
his Pep Nv from crashing group
of pleasure boats as it rounded the
south buoy of the course. Brambel
missed the Coast Guard cutter
Calypso by inches before regaining
control Of his boat and getting back
into racing lanes.

and George Shaffer went over to
Eastern Bay after those stripers.
Cumming with live shrimp, they
caught 80, all from to S pounds.
About so big hardheads also rose
from the bottom and took the bait.
It's the best type of rock fishing
he ever tried, says Harry. About Is
minutes after he tossed the first
handful of shrimp over the fish
were rising and with no weight at
all on the end of his line they were
able to put up quite a struggle.
Dams Afford Poor Fishing.
Conowingo Dam on the Susaue-
hanna River is beginning to demon
strate that in many cases artificial
dams are bad for fishing Deep
Creek Lake, you know, up there in
the mountains of Western Mary
land is in the same fix. 1t was
heavily stocked with trout and bass.
They thrived for a few years, then
disappeared. A few red-eye and
other trash appear to be all that's
left.
COnowingO is the same way.
The dam proper almost has
been deserted by the bass,
crappie and yellow perch.
They have gone up the river where
the food is more abundant and
where there is less silt and dirt on
the bottom. The dam was built in
1929. No fish ladder for the her
ring and shad was built, both be-
cause of the expense and because it
was doubted that they would use it
anyway.
Instead, the builders agreed to give
Maryland and Pennsylvania yearly
appropriation of $4,000 for stocking
the dam and Susquehanna with
fish. For the first year or so the
fish thrived in Conowingo and an
glers had no trouble getting the big
ones.
But the bottom began to fill UP,
covering the vegetation and chasing
all the food away. The fish began
to travel upstream into Pennsyl-
vania.
The dam still is stocked yearly
with all kinds and sizes of fish, but
they leave almost Immediately for
the better conditions of the Key
stone State. Few return. And
nothing can be done about it.

The Indian Spring course is in
ideal condition for low scoring, with
fast fairWays and slow putting
greens. You couldn't find a finer
combination for scoring than this.
In addition to a prize for the winner
Of the tourney The Star also donates
prize for the low gross winner.
Prior to the tourney for The Star
trophies the skirted golfers will play
tomorrow in one of their larger af-
fairs-the buffers tourney at

clal prizes for the low handicap
players who will use the inside"
or short nine at Manor.

Government 10 HeIp
Retain Salmon in
Columbia River
By the Associated Press,


For centuries Columbia River SAL
mon have been following a fixed,
mysterious four-year cycle. They
hatch in the upper reaches+of the
river grow several inches, drift down
to the Pacific Ocean, add from 10
to so more pounds, and swim back
up the river to spawn and die where
their lives began.
Soon the biggest man-made thing
on earth-Grand Coulee Dam, in
Central Washington State-will
have ended the salmon runs for all
time.
To save the fish, the Federal Gov
ernment is providing new living
quarters for them. To tempt the
salmon to move in, the Government
Is making their lives easy.
The fish will be caught at another
dam $50 miles below Coulee and
transported to new spawning
grounds. The salmon no longer will
have to make great jumps in the
river above Coulee to reach spawn
ing areas.
Fishermen say salmon here
after will put up much sitter fight
on the end of a line because he
won't have lost strength in the up
the-river struggle.

Lewis Triple Wasted.
1t was refreshing for the $4,000

launched the Washington half of

right. But Buddy choked the cheers
in their throats when he broke for
the plate as Charley Colbert
grounded to Kress at third. Kress
whipped the ball to Catcher Birdie
Tebbetts to check that threat.
The Tigers added another run of
Pete Appleton in the seventh, but in
the eighth the Mats made gestures
of scoring runs in clusters. Cecil
Travis batted for Colbert and
rammed double to right and scored
when Bobby Estalella poked double
off the left-feld barrier.
Estalella, who represented the
tying run, moved to third on Jimmy
Bloodworth's sacrifice and the bases
were crammed with only one out
when West and Rick Ferrell both
walked. Pitcher Bud Thomas, who
belonged to the Mats for two weeks

golfers, recruited from At schools,
Dattled today over Wakonda's soRey
hills here for the 64 championship
bracket positions Of the 42d annual
national collegiate tournament.
Arrayed for the day-long parade
were l82 contestants, % more than
the starting number at Louisville
KY, a year ago.
Back OF battle precedent Is De-
lending Champion Johnny Burke of
Georgetown. Only three times in
national collegiate history has a
player won the title twice.
162 Score Apt to Qualify.
Despite the increased competition,
qualifying will not be nearly so
stringent proposition as in prior
years when only 80 finalists fought
1t out in match play for the in
dividual title. The bracket expan-
sion to "a, plus high practice round
scores, has caused coaches and
players to predict cards of 1852 would
be sufficiently low to land in the
select company.
Qualifiers will be determined over
SO holes, 18 today and another l8
tomorrow. The 36-hole scores also
will decide team play honors.
Nobody is willing to go out on a
limb with prediction on the team
event, bringing together as it does
such squads as Stanford's defending
champions; Duke, the Southern Con-
ference titleholder; Northwestern,
the Big Ten winner; Louisiana
State, Georgetown and Harvard.

only once and equaled twice in three

Shea Is Lone Par-Breaker.
The par-buster was Billy Shea of
Georgetown, who yesterday shot a

wraps, carded an 30.
Added to the other complications
along the 6,536-yard layout is
''lunatic fringe" of rapidly growing
heavy grass, strip of former fair
territory which reverted to rough
when tournament officials ordered
the fairways narrowed.
Match play starts Wednesday with
two 18-hole sudden death rounds.
The third and fourth rounds will be
disposed of over the same distance
Thursday, with the 36-hole semi
finals and finals scheduled for Friday
