fish come from the Federal hatch
cries at New London. =. This is
part of a brand new fish propa-
CATION plan in which fry as such
are nearly out of the picture. .
Now it's fingerlings. The depart
ment and sportsmen alike hava
found that fry sustain too great
a loss to return too much on the
propagation. The lingering
planting is still in its infancy, in
this lake at least, but it has had
sufficient testing to warrant the
go signal. At least it is found
to be far in advance of the old
fry planting. A lake such as
Sauk, abundant with perch, is bad
medicine for the fry. But the fin
gerlings have a good chance for
survival. The fact that the
state and other agencies are taking
such an interest in the greater pan
fish and bass fishing qualities of
Sauk Lake leads to a certain doubt
that the lake will be showed into
the southern zone on this or any
other year. And that goes par
ticularly for bass. ..
The boys opened up on the
bowling circuit with something
to shoot at and you can believe
1t. Andy Mayer topped off
the whole thing of the first
weeks play with $40 and
right behind him was Ted
Wurst with a COS. Andy's
256 is only pins short of the
all-season high set by Ed Borg
mann last year.
Both these scores have been made
in the Central League. Still in pro-
cess Of organization, it is this year
a six team battle. Association
officials are trying to round out
the thing for a Melrose team sched-
uled didn't show last week and left
two teams without play. The
boys are pointing to this league as
the one that'll really crack the
pins. It's a straightaway play,
without handicap, and the boys
with counters in their fingers are
in the setup. =.
Biggest laugh of the first
week for the boys was Dave
Dubois, bowling on the Home
Defense team. Dave Is
left-hander and at the present
Is without proper bowling
shoes. He wore q pair of
shoes for a right hand bowler.
On opposite feet they had the
appearance Of skis. =.
Ed Nathe can't quite believe 1t
yet. He wound up at the top of
the heap in the Main Street League
with a It'll average for the first
week and further cluttered up the
score sheet with such advance
ments as a high 532 three game

The Loss of Lou Cehrig

Idoubt that the passing of any
ball player in the history Of the
game, not even Christy Mathewson,
brought along as much genuine sor-
row as the recent death Of Lou
Gehrig.
Texas Is far away from the Side
walks Of New York, but they are
still talking about the Yankee star
who had such an abundance Of cour-
age, skin, stamina and sportsman
ship.
Here was baseball's greatest trag-
edy. Lou was . great ball player,
one Of the greatest, but he was
something more. With his great
physique, his amazing physical pow
er, he also had the gentleness Of q
child.
No one like Lou viii come our
way again.

So far this has been Dickey's best
season. The lanlxy son Of Louisiana

March that he would pass $50 this

As parting words to those who travel

to overlook the flattery.
1t would make a good slogan to be
painted on those Acknowledgement
signs that cities put beside highways
Or printed on drivers license cards
Or mounted on ornate instrument
panels of the marvellous automobiles.
Maybe the touch of flattery makes
this an effective safety slogan. Every
one of us likes to think he is in that
select group of persons who can hardly
be spared. Good men are scarce.
So take care of yourself on the high.

Coming down to cases, every ont
of us is important to someone else
Important at home or at work or II
places where men and women have
opportunity to grow friendships. Auto
mobiles and modern highways make i
easier for us all to increase these con
facts, to have more friends. It is {
tragic blunder to turn this builder o
friendships into something that break
them up. Avoid accidents on the high
ways. Help save your life and that o

Look Out
forBumps!

One of the most certain-even If less
welcome-signs of spring has arrived.
The inevitable harbinger came in
the form of two warnings issued this
week by the state highway department:
One, the warning to motorists to Look
out for the Bumps" and the other,
instructions to state highway main
tenance crews to take every precaution
to protect the travelling public and
at the same time make every possible
preparation to hold frost heave and
frost boil damage to a minimum.
Both warnings mean just one thing
-Minnesota's annual spring break
up" is at hand, with its resultant public
Inconvenience, its expensive road-sur-
face repair bill, and its inevitable re-
suit of from $500 to 1900 miles of
state trunk highways under maximum
load restrictions for several weeks.
Serious frost heaves have been re-
ported from many maintenance dis
tricts, the Highway dept. reports. All
maintenance engineers and section men
were instructed some time ago to ex-
erciSe great care to see that such
hazards are marked with Bump"
signs or red flags as rapidly as they
become serious.
Frost heaves are caused by COM
bination Of soil and moisture conditions
and freezing. With present-day high
speeds heave in the roadway is much
more serious to traffic than was the
case when traffic moved more slowly a
few years ago.
Frost boil preventative measures in
clude artificial thawing out of vertical
drains through frost heaves by steam
letting. Modern construction, through
intensive soil studies and planning,
provides for correction or replacement
of Troublesome soils in subgrades, to
reduce or eliminate heaving.
