they gloried in q victory over the
Astor Clarke All-Stars by an over
whelming score OF 1883 to l,757, Q

The heavy flow of water in the
Potomac, which for several days was
just short of flooding, effectively
stopped the white perch fishing. So
long as the snow-waters continue to
come down the angling will not re-
sumo in the manner one expects at
this season of the year, although
small catches will be made here and
there. A stretch of mild weather
will bring the run to maturity
quicker than anything else for it
dissipates the cold water in jig time.
Meanwhile, those fishermen who
find fun in all kinds of fishing, have
turned to sucker fishing in the creeks
tributary to the Potomac.
Red" Finch snagged a fine 2
FOUNDER near the mouth of Difficult
Run and found that the local lads
were making good catches right
along-better than Is usual before
mid~April.
Gordon Singhaus still is talking
about his catch of Is catfish made
just previous to the snow. Many
of them exceeded pounds. This
indicates, when considered with
other early season catches, that cat
fishing will be better than ever this
spring.

Pitching apparently is going to be
one of Marylands major problems

matters. Ship could use 'Knocky"

moldy-looking sheets written
on by somebody that hadn't
been to spelling school lately.
1t was tough going, but I hadn't

truth hit me spang in the eye.
This was the paragraph.

me. 1t was all plain enough
now. The geology bird was
right; there was no vein Of gold
at Tambay and never had been,
except what the scrappy old
Wandos had grabbed off from
the interior tribes. Being relics,
these belonged &c the university

him, God help him! To a mob,
