Once the hook has been set, and
this Is our own personal idea on

prevent cutting on the sharp coral

Trout fishing in Maryland will be
on Eastern standard time rather
than war time, according to de-
cision by State Game Warden E.
Lee LIE Compte. This means fishing
from $50 am. to 8 pm. Because
Of the war 1t was feared anglers
would be barred from Fishing Greek
above the reservoir as this is the
water supply for the town Of Fred
erick. The Mayor and Aldermen,
however, reviewed the situation and
failed to take action last week,
which means that one Of the best

All Other Winter Loop
Celebrities on Hand
BY FRITZ LITTLEJOHN,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

PINEHURST, N. c., March a.
If Melvin (Chick) Harbert, already
the surprise find Of the winter golf
season, can win the North and
South open, starting here today, he
will wrap up reputation as prob
ably the finest young conner In the
game.
This tournament means much
more than two he already has won
this season at Beaumont and San
Antonio, Tex. If he wins, he will
have to win the hard way. He will
have to beat the fastest field Of the
season, including Open Champion
Craig Wood, making his first real
bid of the year after passing up the
coast-to-coast tour.
Advised Not to Play.
All the other stars are here, too,
including Defending Champion
Sammy Snead, who drove all night
coming up from Florida and then
played an 18-hole practice round
yesterday; Ben Hogan, the 1910
winner, currently leading Snead for
top money honors, and ever-danger-
Gus Byron Nelson, who had . two
under -par-70 practice round.
Harbert, a 6-footer, will have to
quit q sick bed to play. He Is
suffering from a throat ailment and
his doctor advised him not to play,
but the strapping battler from
Battle Creek, Mich, has his heart
get on this one.
He finished 18th here last year,
and he knows he has improved. He
wants another cracksat the gruelling

procity policy might be worked out.
Perhaps there could be q special
license for the Potomac, or possibly
West Virginia and Virginia could pay
a reasonable share Of the stocking
and patrolling cost. Or perhaps
these out-of-Sta men could 60 IN
the Potomac II Marylanders could
fish for about halt q mile up In
Virginia and West Virginia streams
emptying into that river.
LeCompte made such . proposal
several years ago and nothing came
Of 1t. He and many others see no
reason why these anglers should
be given privileges not extended to
those Of other States. They can 1ish
the Potomac on paying the usual
nonresident fee.
Another recent proposal regarding
license fees Is that District Of Colum-
bia residents be permitted to pur-
chase resident licenses In virginia
and Maryland.
War Not to Halt Bay Fair.
The war will have no effect on

is right below Car6erock, to Lock II,

water level must be kept up If they
hope to make anything good OF this
