Pepco Choice 10 Take
Government Loops
Second d-Ha|f Flag

Discounting an unexpected reor-
ganization OF the Treasury nine,
which apparently has disbanded for
the season. Pepco is the odds-on
favorite to win second-half honors
in the United States Government
League.
Treasury has defaulted in its last
five scheduled games and the sched-
ule is so arranged that if it con-
tinues to forfeit Pepco will get the
bunting on a silver platter despite
determined resistance on Naval Air
Stations part.
Naval Air was to inaugurate the
weeks program today in a game
with Bureau of Investigation and
Friday tangles with Gas Light Co.
Pepco meets Union Printers Thurs
day in a game that will decide the
race. If it wins, it clinches the
flag outright, but defeat may throw
it into a tie with the Sailors.
Beall of F. B. I. continues to lead
the hitters with a husky 472 aver
age, followed closely by Holbrook of
Union Printers, with .439. Other
leaders are Dunn, Naval Air .4O8;
Mosedale, Printers, 1856; Smith,
Naval Air, 1868; Monaco, Treasury,
1854.
Other games this week are as fol-
lows: Tomorrow-Gas Light VS..

The weekly post card from Capt.
Wayland w. Baum of Wanchese,
N. c., says that the summer run of
bluefish is on at Oregon Inlet.
Catches of so to the boat are not
unusual, he says, but he gives no
detail about sizes. Some channel
bass also are there.
Moving up the Atlantic Coast to
Wachapreague, Capt. L. S. Corbin
also has nice things to say about the
fishing in his neck of the woods. In
spite of the sizzling heat when he
wrote. Capt. Corbin says they are
enjoying the best fishing in years,
with plenty of croakers, sea bass,
porgies and founder And August
and September will be even better,
the prediction being based on past
performances.
Persons who like fishing, but who
at the same time are subject to at
tacks of seasickness, might give
Wachapreague a whirl. There is
plenty of room and water for good
bottom fishing inside the many little
rivers that wind between it and the
ocean proper. Most of the time the
water is calm and smooth as glass,
and there is no danger of becoming
ill. All the fish inside aren't small,
either. We have seen good-sized
shark and rays landed in some of
these little rivers, which were no
more than so feet wide.
Some more good fishing, in spite
of the recent heat, is reported from
Uncle Billy's Pier at North Beach.
Eddie Roache and party from WASH
ington got 175 hardhead, weighing
from 2 to 31a pounds, along with a
sprinkling of trout and spot. To
make that haul they used nearly all

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y, Aug.
5.-Saratoga and the machine age
don't mix!
This rustic little community
which awakens to the thunder of
galloping hooves for one month each
summer has just had its first week
of racing under the mutual system
of betting-and it was a disappoint-
ing one.
The total play for the six days
was 81 1852 ,08O, an average of s308,-
$50 per day. The attendance was
only 7,778 daily.
That seems to mean that 50
bettors. who usually comprise the
bulk of the betting, cannot afford
the trip here. Only about one
third of the wagering in the first
week was of the 50 variety.
And it is believed also that the
big-money boys with their rolls of
fat bills are not going to appear at
the Spa as they did in the days of
the bookmakers.
However, Saratoga and August
are synonymous, and with big week
end crowds to take up the slack of
slim weekday gatherings, the meet
ing yet may prove a success finan-
cially. Already it is an artistic one,
and Saturdays $500 crowd and
s574989 handle were very prom
Using.
Those who view the situation with
real alarm have begun to ask ques-
tions, and they run sometimes like
this: What will Saratoga do next
season if it has competition from
New Jersey? Will the racing be
shifted from Saratoga to Belmont.
or be given up altogether? Will
the ban on gambling in the night
clubs-a point being cited as keep
ing big money away from Sara
toga-be continued?
