 When the Haida squad is pass ing chest-to o-chest, they look like a ball club, and the tallies they roll up, prove the point.
 Nagy, smooth limbed giant of the Haida squad, was high point man with 12 points, but the Haida team does not pivot alone on Nagy, and large measure of their success can be handed to big Stack, strong de- fensively, and slightly built Rop- kins, ball chasing forward with an always fighting heart.

HIGH SCHOOL AND GUTTER
 ARE vICT0RS
Both Games in Local Gym Last Nighf Are Lop-
 sided Affairs .

Both basketball contests lest night in the high school gymnasium, in which the High School trimmed the EllSs and the Haida walloped the Moose, were lopsided and al'ke in every respect, even to similarity in scores.
 In the opening fracas, the High School squad rolled up 30 points in the first half to the Elks' ten and went on in a ragged, wild scramble of a second half to make the final score 50 to 2l.
 The Haida team worked likewise smoothly in the first half passing well and dribbling little to pile up a 31 to 8 lead at the half-tim and continue through a sloppy second half to the final tally of 47-22.
 Scoring Horrors
 Still a nomination potentially as one of the best ball players on the Channel, High School guard Tommy Powers, took high scoring honors with IA points, although he did not play the entire game. Powers, heav- fly built, is a rugged ball hawk and fine material for the last ditch of defense behind Reischl, Hussey and McDaniels on the forward line. The last named three men scored eight points each last night, which gives an inkling as to what team work can do to a group of athletes.

GERMANS NOT HATED

So far Meyer has found no bit- terness against the German mass es. either here or abroad, but won- ders whether the bombing of the big cities, so often predicted, would not generate a spirit for another punishing Versailles. That, he said, would bestir in Germany a des- perate fear of an Allied victory
 No help can come from telling the German masses that the war is conducted not against Germany but only against Hitler Although this might be entirely true, never theless they are tragically remind ed of 19l4-l9l8, when they were told that the war was conducted only against the Kaiser. Yet after the Kaiser, they got Versailles and Germany was dBmembered.
 It is true, he said, that oppo- siticn to Hitler is developing within Germany into a solid front but the masses, including the conScript army, will not turn against him without solid conviction that his presence is Germany's worst lia- bility

There's a new artificial gut

looks good. Even when dry
1t does not harden like the

The dry leader handles just like

be tied in knots and loops without

advantage is since you don't have
to soak it overnight before fishing
1t will last that much longer with
out rotting.. 1t also sinks more rap
idly than other leader material.
Another manufacturer has a new
hook on the market. Practically all
sizes are made especially for salt
water, and while they are a bit ex-
pensive the manufacturer claims
they are absolutely rustproof and
stronger than ordinary hooks. A
special allow is used containing
about SO per cent nickel.
The nylon lines which were intro
duced last summer seemed okay. so
the manufacturer this season has
added a number of new styles and
sizes. To the 20-pound saltwater
line of last season there now are
added fresh-water, trolling and fly
casting sizes. The fly lines come in
level sizes, single tapers. double ia
pers and three-diameter torpedo

The new artificial bats are
legion. Every company in the
