Coaches Problem

LAFAYETTE, Ind. April IL
GNS)-There was an air Of whs-
Ting in the dark on the Purdue

is concerned.
The boilermakers ended seven
weeks of spring practice with an
exhibition game for the 125 coaches
attending the annual Purdue foot
ball clinic.
Eighty-one players took part In
the spring training, but coach FL
mer Burnham was realistic. He
said most Of them probably would
not he playing football next fall
and would be in the armed service.
ConSpicuously remote was talk
of where the coaches would find
material next fall.

OUTDOORS

Near the great Norris Dam on the
Cllnch River in Tennessee white bass
appeared last year in countless num-
bers. No one ever was able to eX-
plain from whence they came nor
where they went a few months
later. Temporarily the run is classed
as just another piscatorial oddity.
This spring the white bass ap-
peared in the Tellico River near
Tellico Plains by the millions. State
authorities still do not have any
explanation to offer about this sec
ond appearance nor why there was a
change in the locale. but they are
hoping the hordes will hang around
until after the spring meeting of
the Outdoor Writers of America, so
that they might tell the anglers of
what this little-known area has to
offer in the way of fishing.
After the war outdoors minded
folk are going into this area for
many reasons. There will be some
content to cruise the hundreds of
miles Of new waterways and lakes
formed through the construction
of nearly dozen large dams, happy
in .traipsin' through an unspoiled
country. Others will find their
pleasure in fishing. Every worth
while freshwater game fish will be
found either in the lakes or in the
tributary streams. Still others will
