and she did not feel it necessary TO
disturb her. The less she knew
about Marks conversation the bet
ter. She walked to the WINDOW
overlooking the park, thinking care
fully of all the things Mark had i'm
piled in his unexpected call.
A curving necklace of sparkling
lights gave the park a fresh lowell
ness as the twilight came. A beautl-
full. peaceful night was dropping
over the city but for Sandra
it was a night full of danger and
the striking of unseen, violent
forces. Suddenly an idea came to
Crystal. 1t was an idea so definite
and startling she turned abruptly
from the window and took a few
quick, nervous turns around the
room, trying to get at the real rea-
son for Marks great anxiety con-
cerning her.
Had he finally trapped Joe's muir
derer? After all these months had
he run the man down? Was he
afraid that Sandra would be struck
down by the same person? Or had
the person who had taken Joes gun
from Sandras hiding place that
far-off April day finally surrendered
it to the police Was that the
danger that threatened Sandra now?
She shuddered with the thought,
but it gave her a glimpse of the
fear-haunted world Sandra had
lived in since the night Joe was
killed. There was something sinis-
ter about the look of exhaustion
she had seen in the girls eyes after
Richard White had left that after
noon Marks call coming on top
of all of that made her see for the
first time what a place OF terror
the world could be when 1t was
peopled with malicious ghosts that
could rise at any moment and crush
person-or surround her with
never-ending, haunting fears.
Crystal Is Aroused.
Dinner was served to the girls In
their apartment. Telling Sandra
Just enough to indorse Marks man
date that she stay in the hotel un-
til he arrived in the city, Crystal
managed to get Sandra to bed early,
and after a futile evening alone,
spent trying to read or listen to the
radio, she went to bed herself a
little before midnight.
The clock in the living room
chimed away the half-hours.
Menacing sounds crept out Of the
shadows in her room as Crystals
excited imagination peopled the
darkness with fantastic patterns of
fear. She never knew later when
she finally fell asleep or what time
it was when she suddenly sat up in
bed, every nerve tingling with
sure premonition of danger.
There was no sound in the room.
But something had wakened her.
Under the drawn curtains thin
band of pale, gray light showed the
dawn was coming Time passed.
She sat straight up in bed, her heart
beating furiously Then she heard
a sharp, fiat sound -. glass striking
metallic surface.
Shivering with more than the
cold, she jumped out of bed and
slipped into her dressing gown. The
sound had come from the living
room. Following Marks fnstruc-
tions, she had left the door slightly
! ajar. Definite action now took the

cared rowing is a much faster prop

His answer:
Condition. equipment and more
scientific application of power"
His explanations:
"Kids are in much better condi-
ton these days, probably because
they don't get worked so hard. When
was rowing Q924-25-26) they used
to send us all around the darned
lake on long rows Now we don't
row quite so much, and when we
have a time trial, the kids have
more kick left.
Equipment undoubtedly is better.
Oars, shells, oarlocks, rigging-all
have been improved over what they
were Is years ago.
Il think our system now is more
scientific. When l was rowing we
took a much longer reach. Now
we've shortened the reach and

Some States refuse to stock brown
trout because it is believed after
they attain an age of three years
they prefer to take fewer but larger
meals, mainly smaller trout.
Other States stock them extern
sively. Their claim is browns will
live in waters, particularly those pol
luted by industrial wastes, which are
unfit for brooks or rainboWs. Fish
authorities state, however, that rain
bows will stand just as high tenn
peratures as browns and generally
recommend that browns be kept out
of brook and rainbow waters. Which
is right is beyond our ken, but we
do know browns in Pennsylvania
waters are proving satisfactory and
that they have real future in
Maryland streams.
More public hearings have been
arranged for Virginia and Maryland
communities TO consider the revision
OF Federal regulations governing the
placing of fishing structures in the
Chesapeake and its tributaries.
The next three are arranged for
Rock Hall on June "a, Solonlons on
July l and Annapolis July 2.
In this case it gives the public an
opportunity TO present their views
on lengths Of nets, spacing, lights,
markers and the weight of poles.
Those pertinent matters, such as
size OF mesh and return of small
sized fish, seem not to matter. These
meetings usually are attended by
interested commercial interests only
because the sports anglers are not
organized. Yacht clubs and boating
interests should be interested as to
their placing.

Bass Is Grateful
For Knife's Loan

Do Canadians have a sense OF
humor?
Charles Hall of Montreal won
the Quebec Anglers Association
fish story contest from among
5000 entrants with his yarn of
the "winking bass"
The prize is a plane trip to
Nassau. Bahama Islands.
Halls story:
While fishing last season he
dropped a pearl-handled knife
into the water. Moments later
he caught a female bass, put it
on a stringer and hung it over
the side of the boat.
Suddenly the water churned
and he saw large bass saving
away at the stringer with his
pearl-handled knife" AS he
reached into the water to grope
for the stringer he felt something
nudge his hand. 1t was the knife,
returned by the bass.
LAS the fish disappeared" said
Hall, II saw him give me a wink
of thanks. 1t was the first wink
ing bass that I ever saw"

are Horace E. Dodge, with a new

Ernest Lee cruised all the way
down to Cape Charles on his Sarah
Jane this week, but found the best
fishing on the GooSes on the way
back. He stopped then only because
Milton Gordon, with crew consist
ing of Ellis Goodman, Harold Kron-
stadt, George Frielicher, Joe Levy
and Sol Goldstein were on a hot
spot with Capt. Sam Dixon and
pulling them in hand over fist. Their
catch totaled 163 hardhead and l
trout. Lees catch was l8 in less
than an hour.
We found that hardhead every
where were in the deep water and
these catches on the GooseS seem
arrived. With the moon nearly full
this week end there is every reason
to believe catches will mount, al
though there are few catches this
week to substantiate this belief.
The best one reported was the
catch of rock made by one of Capt.
Bob Lees men out of Shady Side
fishing on the Hilltop in the
mouth of Eastern Bay. That same
school supplied considerable action
throughout the season OF 1910. 1t
is good to know they still are there
and willing to carry on this season.
In Herring Bay during the last
two weeks we have found consider
able evidence of stripers-the Swirls
of feeding fish, bait fishes in tight
schools and dead slicks and feeding
gullS-enough in the way of signs
for a try with trolled lures or by
way of a chum line of shore shrimp
and a f1oat-line.
Northeaster Blows Out.
On the beach side the northeaster
that started last Saturday morning
effectively put stop to almost all
fishing. 1t is blown out now and
channel bass should be biting from
Cape Charles to Cape Henlopen.
At Ocean City it wasn't enough of
blow to keep the marlin fleet IN
In fact, many of the boats were out
every day and brought in good
catches of mackerel with from 2
blues to 10 to the boat. Those that
tried the offshore bottom fishing
loaded up with sea bass.
The crew of Winter Quarter Light
Vessel were reported to have seen
two white marlin last week. That
| might mean lot. Again, it might
mean nothing. Capt. Lev Raymond
on a long jaunt offshore reported a
jumping fish which might have been
mackerel shark or a white
marlin.
He did see a great school Of por-
poises, large numbers of Mother
Carey's chicks and old oil slcks. AL
good indications Of fish.
Considering that white marlin
| already have been caught in the
Carolinas and that water tempera-
lures off the Maryland coast are rea-
sonably high-61 degrees-it might
be that we are going TO have an
early season. 1t is true that it didn't
get going until July last year. but in
other years marlin have been caught
| in mid-June.
New Laws in Effect.
The new Maryland laws concern
ing fishing and hunting went into
effect June l. The trout season viii
extend through July Is and bas;
season in waters above the ebb anC
flow of the tide will open on June Is
This law does not change bass
fishing in tidal waters as to the sea
son. 1t will open August l. 1t doe:
limit the creel, however, to 10 bass
day the same as in non-tida
waters.
