involved-and bombs dropped-than
the previous fire blitz, there we're in
dications it was nowhere near as
damaging.
Fire fighters were reported to have
smothered many of the incendiaries
almost as soon as they alighted.
Even so, many small fires lighted
the sky, where British interceptor
planes sought to beat off the at
tackers
After the first hour of the raid.
one fire marshal said, there we're
at least 20 watchers for every bomb
that fell and we had them out in
no time"

one sector alone at least $50 men
were fighting fires.

enemy aircraft dropped bombs on

Anglers Urged to Buy Now for Next Year;
Virginia Game Hard Hit by Drought

ularly is true of brook trout, but
only partially in the case of browns.
RainboWs seldom return to noun
tain streams once they have found
their way to big water.
Beyond the temporary damage to
the fish was the injury to the insect
life, which i'll the inactive or UNDER
water stages are not able to sur
vive exposure and drying out.
Stonef1y, caddishy and mayfly larvae,
to note a few of the natural foods
of trout, were destroyed in great
numbers so that it may require years
to bring them back to their usual
balance.
Hunting and fishing were stopped
in Vermont and New Hampshire on
account of the fire hazard and West
Virginia is taking extraordinary
measures to combat this menace.
Boats Survive Hurricane.
A note from Miami says not a
single boat was damaged during the
recent blow, probably because own
ers and charter boatmen have
learned well the lesson taught them
in 1926-that it is always safer to
run far up the rivers and creeks
until the storm is over.
One must actually see what wind
can do with the placid expanse of
Biscayne Bay before it is possible to
realize the conditions accompanying
these blows.

Both will make their debuts as

approaching playing shape.
Harmon, however, drilled with
the club only one day before flying
back to the Midwest to keep radio
appointments. He will return Sum-
day morning a few hours before the
game.
Both were All-American players a

his usual halfback position. Kim
brough was fullback in college
football but will earn his $500 Sum-
