the change for a period of two
weeks. It appears that the Today
fall season for trout also was within
their power. but the prospective
raise of so cents for licenses is in
the form of recommendation to
the Legislature, and therefore will
not be acted upon before next
winter.
At that time, not only will that
outmoded law regarding two hooks
on one line be Strengthened out once
and for all, but there is in prospect
a revamping of the entire fishing
code.

Conservation Up to Sportsmen.
Creel and size limits aren't set
arbitrarily to govern the take of
sportsmen, but to prevent inland
waters from being flshed out by the
small minority that believe they
should be able to supply their tables
because they have bought license.
Often the small charge is inadequate
to pay for the stockings of fish.

Sportsmen have recognized that
the continuance OF stream fishing
depends upon the size of the creels
they take. 1t is not uncommon to
find them now without the little
basket" but because there always
will be those who want their fun,
and fish too. there always will be
creel and size limits. Our job today
is to supply the greatest possible
amount of angling within the limits
of the waters, and the ability of the
Federal and State agencies to keep
them stocked.
Both are doing a swell job, but
just as good year of natural
spawning Is needed to help out oc-
casionally, so is the cooperation of
all anglers required. Do your part
by keeping within the bounds.
Bass Leave Aqua Creek.
Aqua Greek, down on the Virginia
shore of the Potomac, has been
noted bass water farther back than
we can remember, although during
the last few years the heavy growth
of water chestnut has been respon-
sible for many anglers passing it up,
while those who knew 1t well con-
tinued to take consistently large
bass in goodly numbers.
And, believe it or not, Aqua Greek
today appears to be as barren of
bass as some ocean beach. Why,
we do not know, unless it Is the
operations of netters, which is legal.

Ray, Coach Of Champ b
Central Nine, Quits
For Another Job
Hints at Scout Berth;
Makes Good Record
In l0-Yeor Regime
By GEORGE E. HUBER.

John j. (Jack) Ray, coach OF
Central Highs 1912 championship
baseball team and of the runner-up
basket ball squad in the high school
series, has resigned, 1t was learned
by The Star last night.
Ray was one of the most success
full schoolboy diamond coaches IN
washington, developing three
championship teams in his 10 years
with the Vikings, the first OF which
in 1889 gave Central its first undis-
puted baseball crown in more than
Is years.
Jack Gives No Reason.
Ray, who gave no reason for re-
signing, said he had spot lined up
in professional baseball. He has
secuted for major league clubs when
not occupied as coach.
Central's first baseball champion
ship under Ray was won in 1899,
when the Vikings defeated Eastern
in a playoff. They repeated over the
same club in 1910, and this year
got back in the picture by winning
the playoff series against Woodrow
Wilson. Central's previous expert
ence at the top of the baseball heap
had been a three-way tie with
Western and Eastern back in 1882
Developed Number of Stars.
Ray occasionally also handled
Central's basket ball squads, and
his team this year was runner-up
to Wilson for the title.
Baseball was his main sport,
though, and he developed numerous
good players. Three OF them now
are playing professionally in minor
leagues and all are considered po-
tential major leaguers, Sam DiBlasi
with Canton, Benny Steiner with
Greensboro and Arnold Heft with
Scranton. All are owned by the
Boston Red Sox.
A number of college stars also
came from Rays high school teams,
among them Stuffy Evans and
Kenny Bransdorf at Maryland and
Len Sokol at George washington
while some of the former local
college players developed by Ray
are Buddy Nau of Georgetown and
Shorty Chumbris, Lefty Chumbris
and Bill Bryant, all of Maryland.

Nr Stokes Prime Conenaor Links Peak Try for Area Title Slam
Champion Of District

For N, 4, Crown
AffubIe Before and After
Match, Gives Her All
While EmbuttIed
By WALTER McCALLUM.

In all the history of golf around
this red-hot links town it is doubt
full If there ever has been more
serious concentrator on shot-making
than Mrs. Walter r. Stokes, who
will be strictly the woman to lick
In the Middle Atlantic women's
championship starting at Congress
sional tomorrow. Nor is any COM
petitor in this area more capable OF
raising her game to its highest
level when nothing but the best
will do.
Mrs. Stokes has been playing golf
only six or seven years. In that
time she has won all the women's
championships in this sector, and Is
rapping at the high spot of them
ala chance to win the Mid
Atlantic and wrap up all three
major crowns in a single year. 1t
hasn't been done before, and Mrs.
Stokes, concentration and all, seems
the gal to do it, if it can be done.
She has won the District and Mary
land championships, and comes up
to the big one this week at the
peak of her game.
Guldahl Prime Concentrator.
There has been many great con-
eentrators in golf. Ralph Guldahl
for instance, seemed to go into a
trance when he was winning cham
pionships. Ralph didn't speak to
friends on the golf course. He didn't
see 'em, so intensely was he con-
centrating on his shot-making. Un-
1ustifiedly he got in the bad graces
OF some people, who failed to realize
that Ralph was trying hard to win,
and could win only by deep con-
centration. In sharp contrast was
Walter Hagen, the D'Artagnan of
golf, who could wisecrack and con-
centrate in the same second.
Mrs. Stokes isn't like Guldahl.
She concentrates, but she doesn't
concentrate to the point where she
becomes a walking automaton. But
If you, Mrs. Galleryite, want sweet
nod from her this week don't expect
it when the Manor niatron is trying
to make up her mind how to hit a
certain shot. She won't be high
hating you. She'll be working at
the business of winning cham
pionship, which isn't trivial stuff
among the gals, and no occasion for
social amenities.
She Rates Consideration.
Concentration on the business on
hand pays for Virginia Stokes, and
she is such friendly person before
and after the match that she should
be permitted the luxury of concen-
trating during the contest. It's her
method of play and it has been
successful.
Probably she won't be around next
year. The pattern of the immediate
future for the Stokes family calls
for a trip to New Mexico, where DR..
Stokes expects to be doing a job for
the Army. Mrs. Stokes, naturally,
will go along, and probably she will
win some links titles in the South
west, if any tournaments are held
there next year. Meanwhile she'll
60 on concentrating, and with that
serious poker face will be the main
threat in the Mid-Atlantic.
