Alexandra Baseball
Returns 10 Happy
SfatusofYo
Vets Of Foreign Wars,
White Sox, Groys and
Hume Have Teams

Memories of the happy baseball
days of 10 years ago in Alexandria,
when the Dreadnaughts, Cardinals
and st. Mary's Celtics held sway,
are being revived.
Most of the good sandlot teams
disband or fell off in caliber
after the 1881 season, and the
drought continued until last year,
when revival was noted. Vet
erans of Foreign Wars, Virginia
White Sox and Virginia Grays
made good records playing on open
lots and depending on hat collec-
tions for finances. They will con-
tinue the upswing this year, with
the Vets particularly promising a
strong nine. Hume Spring also is
getting into the race.
The V. F. w. team this year will
move its activities behind the fences
of Alexandria's Municipal Stadium
with a higher caliber of basball
promised. Games will be played
Saturday, Sunday and holiday aft
ernoons. Opening game will be Sum-
day, May 4 Aubrey Lacey is cap
tain and Sam De Vaughan business
manager.
Outstanding unlimited baseball
teams wanting games with V. F. w.
are requested to phone De Vaughan
at Alexandria 1893 between 6 and
10 pm. or at District 1850 between
8 am. and 5 pm. or to write to him
at 900 Reese court, Alexandria.

Biggest Competitive Golf Schedule Years Ahead of Middle Atlantic Pros
Terropin Smith, Once Thought

A couple Of years ago a sympa-
thetic public sorroWfully wagged its
head and said it was too bad about
Bob Smiths banged-up knee. Too
bad because 1t meant the end of his
blossoming football career and
struck from Maryland's roster one
of its brightest stars.
But Ruby Robert hung around
long enough to win all-State honors
in football, after a slight repair job
on the ailing joint, and yesterday
added to the discomfort of his
mourners by hurting the Terps to a
1915 victory over William and Mary
in conference game.
You don't pitch with your knee, of
course, but having two good legs to
stand on helps tremendously, as
Smith found out after relieving Max
Hunt in an almost fatal fourth.
There never was anything wrong
with his stout right arm, although
his pitching ability had remained
secret, and he turned back the In
dians with five scattered hits.
Hunt, who has not been his old self
all season, was no puzzle to the Wis
itors. who pounded his offerings

Rod and Stream
BY GEORGE E. HUBER.

The impatiently awaited channel
bass have arrived at oregon Inlet
in North Carolina, according to a
wire from Capt. Wayland Baum of
Wanchese, N. C.
The first large catches were made
Tuesday and they've been at it ever
since. Striped bass also are there.
Within the next ten days anglers
from Washington will be breaking
out their salt water tackle and head
ing for Chesapeake Bay hoping to
be in on the first hardhead catch
of the season. Mild spring weather
presages an early season on the Day
this year and it is likely that the
first croaker will be caught late this
month or during the first week of
May.
As rule, better earlier fishing is
to be found on the Eastern Shore,
with the first catches generally
coming from Honga River area op-
posite Solomons Island. This is a
shallow, grass-bottom tidal river
where the waters are warmed early
in the year and where fish have
plenty of food in the grass and along
the oyster beds. On this side, Bene-
dict on the Patuxent River gen.
orally is the first spot to offer spring
fishing
Surge Comes in May.
A few weeks after the first hard
head is caught in shallow waters
they begin to move out and by the
end of May can be caught all over
the bay, with the largest ones gen.
orally being found in the deep water
of the ship channel. Shortly after
hardhead begin their early summer
spree of biting all the time on any,
thing, trout come in and stay until
late fall. Other late-summer species
much sought by bay anglers are
the striped bass or rockfish and
bluefish. Bluefish have been a dis
appointment in the last two or three
years, however, with few large ones
being caught. Until about four
years ago the best blueflshing
grounds in the country were in
Chesapeake Bay and fish from this
area regularly won top honors in
national big-fish contests. Water
men are hoping they will stage a
comeback this season.
Fishing Conditions Ideal.
Reason for the popularity of bay
fishing is not only the large number
of fish but the ease with which they
may be caught. Hardhead almost
hook themselves and tackle require
ments are simple and inexpensive
A handline and a few hooks and
sinkers will catch them, although
most anglers prefer a short boat rod
and reel
Those who have no tackle yet
who want to take an occasional trip
also have no trouble All charter
boats operating from nearby bay
ports carry handlines as part of
their regular equipment and there
is no additional charge for their
use. Boat fees, too, are moderate.
Average price for still fishing for
a party of four is s5 for four hours.
Slightly higher fees are charged at
some places on week ends and holi-
days. For additional numbers in a
party the usual charge is 25 cents
per person per hour. Trolling fees
average 50 an hour.

your life. No, don't stop me-" he
said as Mark made an effort to
change the subject. Mrs. Starr
has no way to knowing the facts
unless I tell her. I'm not going to
pull my punches"
Crystal smiled at the look Of con-
sternation on Marks face, but a
dead silence followed the captains
words and while he finished what
he had to say, no one again tried
to interrupt him.
He saved your life" the captain
repeated just a shade melodramat-
ically Crystal thought. then she in
stantly decided that under the cir
cumstances nothing he could say
would be more dramatic than the
stark truth. She listened with alb
sorbed interest.
Mr. Cotton watched Walker long
enough to figure out finally what
he thought he would do Frankly,
and I'll admit it now, 1 thought his
idea would not hold water. For
tunately he followed through any,
way and it's lucky he did. That
thermos bottle he turned over to
the police this morning had enough
botulinus toxin in it to kill every
one in this hotel!"
Sandra did not speak for a mo-
ment, then she turned to Mark and
said in a low voice: When did
you first suspect DR.. Walker, Mark?"
When he kept insisting Joe was
a suicide"
The captain looked at him in
aStonishment, but Mark, intent now
on his story, didn't notice him.
I'VE know that he planted Joe's
gun under his lifeleSs hand after
he shot him to make 1t appear a
suicide. Then you came in, Sandra,
and spoiled his play by taking
away the gun. am sure he thought
that insistence on suicide was def
initely DETECTING suspicion from
himself. He, of course, counted on
the well-known family history of
the Stars to make his contention
seem valid.
You see, in the beginning he
never thought of killing Joe. It
probably never entered his mind.
He simply went into his laboratory
in order to steal his now famous
formula. Walker is a good chemist
and he knew the commercial value
of Joe's work. He thought it would
be easy to steal Joe's ideas and
then sell them quickly. He had a
keen notion that Joe was working
purely from a scientific standpoint
and that he-Walker-could move
far faster than Joe would ever want
to, once he had his hands on the
formula.
This was the way everything
stood the night of Charles Whites
dinner. That afternoon Joe had
told Walker he would not be back
at the labortory that night. This
was unusual and gave Walker his
long anticipated chance to go
through Joe's desk in the hope that
he would find papers of value. But
that afternoon something happen-
ed to change Joe's plans"

Tense Golfer Doesn't Give
Self Chonce TO Swing

The main curse of all golf Is
tension.
Watch the average player take
his stance on the first tee. Watch
the tight grip both hands use on
the leather of the shaft. Watch
the grim way he plants both feet
and stiffens both legs. He already
has locked himself as tightly as if
he had used handouts or an iron
ball on an iron chain.
Balance means motion under
control, not post planted in the
ground.
He has tied himself into true
lovers knots before he starts the
swing. He hasn't given himself a
chance. This is all due to tension.
He isn't thinking in terms of a
smooth, unhurried backsWing where
one or two fundamentals must take
place. He is thinking only of hitting
the ball. He is thinking only in terms
of results-not the things that
bring about results.
As a rule he starts his down.
swing before his backsWing is fin
ished. AS a rule his backswing is
hurried and jerky. His mind is on
the hazards ahead. not on the ball.
And the eye follows the direction
OF the mind or brain.
No wonder he can't look at the
ball-or keep his head in place.
He is trying to concentrate on too
many things. so his concentration

Gives Dozen Hints on How
TO Get Rid of Tension

To have any chance for improve
uent in golf the average player,
meaning the go per cent, must give
more consideration and working
thought to the mental side.
l. In taking his stance at the
frst tee he first must look for a
comfortable position. He must try
to locate more ease, especially in
regard to feet and legs.
2. AS far as possible, he should
try to feel lazy. This means lack
of hurry.
3. He should try to concentrate
on the pace of his backswing-to
keep it as smooth as he can-to
keep It unhurried. To be sure the
backswing is finished before the
downswing starts.
4. He should try to keep his mind
on the ball and the backswing, not
on the traps and ponds and the
trouble on ahead. AS Walter j.
Travis once said, The ball has to
stop somewhere.
5. He should think more in terms
of left hand, left arm and left side
against the power of the stronger
right sides, which is apt to swing
forward.
6. He should try to quit thinking
ahead of the swing-which means
he should concentrate on the swing
and not think in terms Of results.
7. He should make up his mind
definitely on the club he has to use
and then play that club for what 1t
Is worth with no subconscious
thought that perhaps he has made
q mistake.
8. He should understand there
must be a correct order of thought
that leads in turn to correct order
of movement.
8. He should concentrate more on
swinging than in trying to steer
the ball.
10. He should put more trust in
whatever; swing he has. At least
give it a chance.
II. He should use his head more
and his muscles less.
IL. He never should let one or
two bad mistakes wreck his mental
balance. The best make mistakes
through every round played.
