II could think of only one thing to

him in the name of friendship to
take us to Cartagena and he brought

I'm too personal but what were you

He listened as the old man ex-

Matt to accept the hospitality Of his

Stages Kind Lady
In Skillful Manner

The luster OF the reputation that
has been achieved by the students

dimmed not whit by their finished
production of Kind Lady" which

these students of the drama it
emerges a corking entertainment.
Kind Lady" adapted by Mr..
Chodorov from a Hugh Walpole
story, is one of those brooding
affairs, the sort which might have
Emlyn Williams or Robert Mont

hands. 1t had stopped raining but
there was no sign of a moon, and
she prayed the sky would stay
cloudy.
Just in front of her was an old
freighter, its riding lights bobbing
gently over the smooth water. She
could see clearly the lights of the
other boats and far ahead the mouth
of the harbor out to the open sea
where she must 60 There would be
another patrol boat there, but with
luck she could evade 1t. Skllltully
she muff1ed the oarlocks with the
strips of rags kept under the seat
for that purpose.
To Matt, the trip through the har-
Dor was a series of momentary pic
lures and long periods of blackness
in between. He heard always the
tapping of the water and felt the
hard wood of the seat against his
head. Once, he opened his eyes to
see the tall spars of sailing vessel
black against the clouded sky, ris-
ing above him. And again he saw
Carlita's white back, her shoulder
muscles ripping strongly as she
piled the oars. He wondered who
she was and thought she looked
cold. That was all, except he was
sure he heard a motor, not a boat
motor, but some other kind. And
somebody lifted him while there
was conversation going on In a
strange language. Then nothing
again.
A Changed Scene.
The next thing he was conscious
Of was a steady warmth. 1t was
on his face. For long time ne kept
his eyes closed, enjoying the glow
ing heat. Then one heavy eye
opened slightly and focused on a
brilliant orange vase and shiny
green leaves set high in white
stucco archway. Through the arch
way was pouring a lavish hot flood
of sunlight. But it should be rain
ing. He remembered rain. He turned
his head and observed the room.
There were plain white stucco walls
and a stone floor, half-covered with
heavy rugs. One small carved
table, and the low couch-like thing
he was lying on. And one end of the
room opened onto terrace with a
view of two fortress crowned hills
far off.
The only familiar things in this
perfectly strange scene were his
sweater and neatly pressed gray
slacks lying across the foot of the
couch. He grasped them joyfully
like old friends and put them on.
He felt lightheaded for a moment
and very thirsty.
Carlita! Her name came to him
just before she appeared off the ter

A white marlin weighing 132
pounds was caught off the South
Carolina coast last week. Had 1t
been taken by an angler on rod
and reel it would have been in
commanding position to draw down
$3.50 in the Rupert contest, but 1t
was brought in by commercial men,
fishing Blackfish Bank, some 3O-odd
miles offshore and from rs fathoms
down.
On the North Cuban coast COM
mercial men handline both white
and blue marlin in depths up to
400 fathoms, but we never have
heard before of like occurrence
In North Atlantic waters.
Whether it means we will have
an early run at Ocean City Is
something else, for little is known
about these fish from the time they
leave Southern waters until we
catch them off Montauk or Ocean
CITY. 1t might be that they follow
the coast up, and again they might
come straight in. The late Paul
Townsend believed the latter. So
does Capt. Bill Hatch. AT Montauk
the marlin always are headed east,
possibly going back from whence
they came.
In a magazine article Thomas
Aitken tells the story of the catch
of the first tarpon on rod and reel.
Samuel H. Jones of Philadelphia
had no intention of becoming
founding father on that hot spring
day back in 1881, but the 170-pound
fish, taken on ordinary surf tackle,
made him just that, for it was the
start of big game fishing in America.
Since Tommy has received thou
sands of letters from every section
of the country urging that the
founding of big-game fishing be
recognized this summer. He is hard
at work on the idea. The necessary
funds have been promised, arrange
ments have been made to hold
recognition day in Miami on July
4 and awards will be made to
outstanding individuals who have
contributed to the phenomenal
growth of sport fishing. Members
of the Outdoors Writers Associa-

The cobia come with them and
stay through August. AS matter
of fact this area has greater con-
centration of this fine sport fish
than any other place in the United
States. The largest of the species
always have been caught here. A
Washington angler is credited with
catching the largest ever taken on
hook and line. 1t weighed 102
pounds, but because the rod was
broken it never has been recognized
as an authenic catch.
Right now, according to Capt.
Floyd Rollins of Messick, large

fishing, but another few weeks will
change that. Capt. Rollins also
reports a few blues being taken in
the nets, but of the same size as
those of which we hear in North
