sands of visitors to Asheville to
view the blooming rhododendron,

urDon Rodeo

NEW ORLEANS, La, May H.-A
tarpon rodeo will be held of the
coast of Louisiana near the mouth
Of the Mississippi River August ID,
10 and 20. Site of the rodeo is about
80 miles from New Orleans.
Interest in tarpon fishing at the
rivers mouth was aroused last sum-
mer when a fishing party reported
a catch of AZ tarpon and many jack
fish. The story, received with some
skepticiSm, was borne out when a
fishing party late last summer re-
ported take of so tarpon in q
single day of fishing. One explana-
ton for the abundance of tarpon in
this locality is that the mixture of
fresh river water and salt Gulf
water produces a brackish condition
suited for tarpon.
The rodeo, sponsored by the State
Department of Conservation and a
New Orleans newspaper, will have
more than half hundred trophies.
