Confident Though Facing
Tough Foes of Turner's
Arena Next Monday

Three Merrick Club fighters are
on the amateur ring card to be
presented Monday night at Turner'S S
Arena and the grapevine news is
that they'll be in the thick of the
firing.
Lew Hanbury, jr., is down for a
brawl with kid" Smith of St
Mary's; John (Stuffy) Stewart will
battle Jim Petro, and Scotty Ash
ton, a newcomer, takes on the Ma
tional Training Schools hard-hit-
ting Houston Anderson.
No Easy Assignment.
It's a tough row to hoe for the
boys. but Lew Hanbury, team coach,
thinks they'll win and win impress
sively. An old Navy fighter who
was good enough in his salad days
to hold the redoubtable Leach Cross
to a draw. Lew leaves nothing to
chance. When he puts one of his
boys in the ring he figures he has
an even chance. or he wouldn't let
him fight. And to make sure no
mistakes are made he keeps his own
ratings system on the District anna
teurs.
There's nothing fancy about it,
just the old 1-2-3 business. The
champ is ace high, and Lew, jr.,
happens to fall in this category;
those who give good accounts of
themselves but don't get the duke
are ranked No 2, apprentice leather
pushers No. 3 and novices No. 4.
Stewart is a No. 3 fighter and
Ashton No. 4, but take a tip from
Hanbury, they'll be up in the No. l
bracket before another year elapses.
Stewart figures to outlook Petro, a
veteran bothered by bad dogs and
old wrestling habits. but Ashton is
sticking out his chin by going in
with Anderson, one of the most
potent youngsters around.
Sees Kayo by Ashton.
Maybe he'll surprise you" grins
Lew when you ask him about this
Il don't want to see any Of my boys
get hurt, and I don't aim to over
match them. 1 know how good An
derson is and I've seen him box
many times but I don't think Ashton
is over his head in this bout.
This kid will knock Anderson stiff
if he gets to him and he's going af-
ter him"

Leo Walper, Bethesda golf pro-
fessional, leaves town tonight by

good golfer in getting his game ready
for the National Amateur champion
ship. The good golfer happens to
be Richard D. Chapman OF Green

Walper is Chapman's links doctor,

practice won't cure, he gets Walper
on the phone and says, Come on,

Townsend Award ot Ocean City, Nd,
Is Captured by Copt. c. O. Sewage

The John and Paul Townsend
Award for the Ocean City, Md,
charter -boatman tagging and re-
leasing the greatest number of white
marlin during the season of 1910, was
won by Capt. c. o. Savage. He will
receive the s100 this week.
1t is true the number Of fish
tagged and released last season was
not impressive, but neither was the
marlin fishing. There were only
153 caught. The fact that one out
of every seven caught was released,
because of the Townsend Award, is
convincing proof it was worthwhile.
Had it been conceived year earlier
and brought a like number of re-
| leases approximately 200 marlin
would have lived, and possibly might
have been caught at some other
point, giving scientists tangible evi-
dence of their migrations. This was
the hope of these sportsmen in post
ing the award.
Until its life cycles and migrations
are known marlin fishing will con-
tinue to have its ups and downs and
there will be no way of knowing
whether or not the sportsman's skill
is harmful to the well-being of the
species and the continuance of the
runs of the Maryland Coast.
Presents New Wrinkle.
Bob Metcalf, one of the many
anglers at the F. E. c.. has found a
trick worthy of note. He fishes the
Point No Point area most every week
end and finds trout will hit white
market shrimp if it is in motion, so
instead of allowing his bait to re-
main still on the bottom he casts
off and drags the bait back to the
boat. His catches seem to indicate
he has something worth trying. We
wonder if the same procedure with
bloodworms would prove better.
Many bills in Congress relating to
hydro-power projects if passed will
be a wasteful use of our natural re-
sources it is claimed by the Izaak
Walton League of America. Three
in particular, presented in the guise
of defense measures, are little more
than plain pork barrel bills. Ken
Reed believes all the bills in part
would sabotage the defense program
by the diversion of much needed
funds, material and man power from
valid measures.
H. r. 4911-Flood control bill con-
tains a conglomeration of projects
with no valid excuse for execution
at this time Many of the projects
would be detrimental to our natural
resources. 1t has passed the House
and been reported to the full COM
mittee in the Senate.
H. r. 1823-Arkansas Valley Au-
thority bill will ruin the justly ia
nous bass waters of the Ozarks
along the White, st. Francis and
other rivers. 1t is in the Commit
tee on Rivers and Harbors.
H. r. 5129-Columbia Power Au-
thority bill is another gigantic
hydro-poWer scheme on the Colum-
bia River. This water has suffered
enough from high dams, yet this
bill calls for others, and on many
tributaries as well. 1t also is in the
House Committee on Rivers and
Harbors.
The IZaak Walton League has
been responsible for constructive
legislation in the less than two
decades of its existence. 1t has
prevented other legislation detri-
mental to our wildlife and natural

Walnuts, in their composition,
contain a large percentage of
natural rich oils, or food fats,
thus ranking high in energy value
as well as muscle-replacement.
Again, unlike many nuts, wal
nuts have no outer tough or
leathery skin which must be re-
moved or shelled before the true
nut is enjoyed at it's best
In walnuts. the thin papery
skin around each kernel or meat
is tissue-thin. and only gives
added and pleasing chevy quail
