largest boating organization, will
be host to the penguin regatta,
which has been set for September
19, 20 and Il. Decision TO hold
this important event on the CheSa-
peake followed a series of confer
ences with Annapolis yachtSmen and
q discussion of sites that included
Long Island Sound.
With at least so penguin dinghies
to draw from in the bay area alone,
class officials were hopeful of turn
ing out one of the largest fleets
of one-deSign boats ever seen on
the Chesapeake.
Coast Skipper Enters.
Already an entry has been re-
ceived from as far distant as the
West Coast, according to Ralph A
Youngs, national secretary. 1t is
the boat of the feet champion of
Seattle, Wash. This skipper won
his feet eliminations during the
frostbite season and the group
raised funds to help finance his
way east.

istration and the national meeting
for the election of officers on the
first day. A full day of racing will
follow on the second day. On the
last day, the forenoon will be de-
voted to more racing and in the
afternoon trophies will be awarded.

gums between races and parking

runnersup.

Price of Angling Equipment
Is Sure to Take Sharp Rise

Meanwhile, the tackle men agreed,
it would be wise to rally the anglers
of the Nation to prevent the passage
of similar laws without the exemp-
ton provision.
Scarcity of best grade reels and
steel rods, it was pointed out, may
be due to inability to obtain raw
materials for their manufacture in
an era of defense priorities and re-
quirements.
Prices, meanwhile, will most GER
tainly advance because of rising
labor costs, taxes, and the possibility
of a stiff excise tax imposed by the
Government on non-essential con-
sumer luxury goods.

Those high-priced rods and reels

lures may be bit scarce and higher
priced, it developed at the Chicago
convention of the Associated Fish
ing Tackle Manufacturers
The scarcity of feathered bugs
and flies, a spokesman for the asso-
citation said at the end of the closed
sessions, will be due in New York
State to the law put on the statute
books by the Audubon Society, for
bidding the use of feathers OF wild
birds in the manufacture of fish
lures.
The association, it was said, would
not object so much if the law per-
mitted the use of feathers of legally
killed wild ducks, and may seek its
amendment at some future legisla-

team who was unable to gain and
had to punt. From here the In
dams started to roll and m a d e
three first downs before they
had to punt.
After Whitefsh got the ball
they were unable to gain the ne
cessary yardage and Browning
took the ball over on downs. 1t
looked like a break, yet it was
MT, for the Indians weren't able
to cash in on it.
Midway in the second quarter
the Indians made three downs in
a row and were knocking at the
Bulldogs door for a touchdown
and with the count reading 4th
down and seven yards to the
goal to go. McFadyean took the
ball over. The try for extra
, point failed.
Whitefish elected to receive
and after trying two running
plays attempted to punt. one of
Browning s ends blocking it. An
Indian caught it and was tackled
FIVE yards from the goal line.
In four tries to put the ball
across the Indians failed to gain.
Shortly later the half ended, with
the Indians leading 6 to 0.
/, The Indians opened the second
half receiving the kickoff and
with straight power plays rolled
70 yards to a touchdown without
relinquishing the ball. but again
failed to add the gratis point.
From here on the Indians played
strictly defensive football.
Halfway in the last quarter
Coach Huss substituted freely
and with the second team play
ing and aided by penalties, White
fish moved for touchdown just
before the game ended and added
the extra point.
According to statistics the In
dians were much better at both
offensive and defensive. They
got first downs at will, White
fish making only three. The In
dians had the ball over half the
time and punted twice.
/ The Indians are a mighty good
team and merit full support of
Browning fans.
