STATE COLLEGE, Pa.-Opening
day at Fisherman's Paradise was
the usual huge success. Any
angler could tell you that paradise
must be a place where the fish
are big and where they always
bite, and the "aptly"-named stretch
of Spring Greek between State
College and Bellefonte, Pa, fills
that bill. When this observer
dropped in last Friday some $500
anelers-a near record total-had
checked in to try their luck and
skill on the mile and an eighth
stretch and the ones who were
leaving all carried trout.
The Hard Way Made Easy
Fisherman's Paradise is COM
pletely hedged in by regulations
and that may be why it also is
hedged by casters, standing at
about five-yard intervals along the
banks, flicking their lines in blithe
VI tilC 1lAtNy Va l'e'SDSfS
by and of the snarls that result
when two or three cast to one spot
at the same time. . Anglers may
fish only with barbless artificial
lures-and no hardware" such as
spinners; they get whacked with
a $40 fine for even having worms
in their possession. No trout
less than 10 inches long-seven IN
the special women's section-may
be kept and although as many as
10 a day may be caught, only two
may be killed. The project was
Begun IL years ago as a model for
stream improvement and a school
for fly casting, but now it's mostly
place where Pennsylvanians can
be sure CT catching couple OF
trout to exc out their ratlons. p.
During the record season-which
lasts only about six weeks each
year-some $4,000 anglers took
home more than four tons of trout.
And do they have fun?

vious IA games. His second home
effort was witnessed by 9,270, the
largest weekday gathering at Fen
way Park, and yesterday 24,547
were on hand He promises to be
an equally strong attraction on the
road
Cooper paid his first dividend to
the Braves on their reported $4,000
investment by blanking Cincinnati,
40, in the opener of a double
header with the Reds, who took
the nightcap, SO, behind the three
hit pitching of Bucky Walters.

from the st. Louis Cardinals last
week, gained his third triumph

Reds to four hits.
