plus smaller Delta Glass boats, gets

out in four major Northwestern
salomn derbies last year, it pro-
duced more than 30 per cent of all
the qualifying fish caught during
the entire season. When the fish
strikes it trips automatically, re-
leasing all drag, can be tripped at
will, trips when an obstacle IS struck
and automatically resets after SO
tripping. Attractively colored, it
also acts as a flasher lure in at
tracing fish. We're taking one on
our next trip after those deep-lying
stripers off Point PATIENCE.
Virginia's extended trout season
is truly a boon to fresh water an
glers these days, when most bass
waters are muddy or so badly rolled
that fishing is almost out of the
question. While Virginia's new SIC
nonresident license fee is some
what of a deterrent to the occa-
sional angler, nevertheless it does
thin down the numbers of trout
anglers, which adds considerably
to the pleasure of the dyed-in-the-
wool dry-f1y angler. Furthermore
trout stocked this year have been
acclimated thoroughly by this time
and put the angler to test of real
skill in the taking of them. We
might add that most streams, con-
trary to popular opinion, still con-
tain many fine fish. They're just
harder to catch.

MiIIion-DoI|ur Chain of Morinos|
Stimulate California BOATING.

SAN FRANCISCO, Calf, July %
California has embarked on the
most ambitious program Of water
front development in the country,
according to Charles A. Winslow,
president of the California Marine
Parks and Harbors Association,
which was formed four years ago to
stimulate interest in boating, fishing
and other forms of recreation
afloat.
Plans nave been formulated for
the construction of more than so
marinas and yacht basins in north
ern California, with particular en-
phasis on improvements in the San
Francisco Bay region.
The association estimates that ap-
proximately $1O0,000,00O will be
spent before the program is carried
through to a successful conclusion
and that ultimately a chain Of
harbors no more than IS miles apart
will dot the coast to serve as bases
for commercial fishing and pleasure
craft.
while the economic benefits to
be derived from the program are Of
great Importance, the association

Month-Long Program
OF Presidents 'sCup
Regatta Is Record
By Malcolm Lomborne, Jr.

The ls48 Presidents Cup Regatta
will stretch over four-week period,
making it the longest aquatic event
on record, it was learned today.
The show begins Labor Day,
September 6, with rowing races. On
September II and IL there will be
swimming events, with canoe races
also slated for the 18th. Sailboat
competition is down for September
1S and 10. Inboard and outboard
events will be held September 25
and 26, including at least three
races for the big Gold Cup boats
In this connection, General Chair
man Jim Councillor disclosed that
he had received the first informal
Gold Cup entry-Band Leader Guy
Lombardo's Tempo vi Of Freeport
L. I.
Regatta officials decided to open
the regatta a week earlier than
usual in order to draw on top oars
men competing September S off Old
Dominion Boat Club in Alexandria
for the Middle Atlantic champion
ships. They will remain over Labor
Day and compete on the Potomac
above the Memorial Bridge. A
finish line is planned off the area
where the Watergate summer SYM
phonies have been held.
Rowing Program Unique.
For the first time in regatta his
tory, rowing events will be enlarged
to take in both senior and inter-
mediate classes. Up to now only
Junior events we're programmed
The swimming phase, which is
planned for the Indian Spring
Country Club, takes two days in
stead of the one as heretofore.
Further, diving events will be add
ed.
Canoe races, enlarged to include
senior as well as junior classes,
should draw paddlers as far dis
tant as Canada. They also afford
the first appearance of Washing
tons five Olympic paddlers upon
their return from England. Racing
will be off the Watergate, too.
Sailing Chairman Carlton Skin
ner reports there will be IL classes
of popular one-designs for the
windjammer phase. The Tempest
Glass dinghies will be added and
sailing canoes dropped from the
program, he said. Other classes are
Chesapeake 20s, Chesapeake 16s,
Indian Landing 20s, Comets, Light
nings, Snipes, Penguins, Moths,
Stars, Hampton One-designs.
Power Range Expansive.
Power events range from the
little midget class outboards to the
Gold Cup racers, according to Pow
er Chairman Eric Greenleaf. He
now is busy working out numerous
technical details of the speedboat
weekend. This includes arrange
ments for outboard pits closer to
the race course.
Lombardo phoned Greenleaf this
week to confirm the dates and
promised to be on hand with Tempo
VI, which now is powered with an
Allison airplane engine. Lombardo
won the Ford Trophy two weeks
ago in Detroit and will make his
next major appearance at Cam
bridge, Md, August IA.
Skinner holds the first meeting
of his sailing committee this after
noon in the Interior Department
building.

points out, there are much greater
returns that cannot be measured
in dollars and cents. These human
values are the bright new panorama
of recreational outlets for the
healthful use of leisure time.
Outdoor recreation has a grow
ing significance in the American
pattern of life. It should be avail
able to every man, woman and
child. 1t is no longer side issue
to be dealt with in an offhand
manner, but a prime necessity that
deserves major consideration by all
agencies of government. Not only
our standard of living, but our
standards of culture and moral
values demand it."
The purpose of the California
Marine Parks and Harbor Associa-
ton is to encourage and assist
federal, state, county, municipal
and private agencies in the estab-
lishment of marinas on the shores,
bays, rivers and lakes of California.
Plans are being formulated for a
conference in Los Angeles or San
Francisco, at which time future ac-
tivities will be discussed.

somewhere for the log canoes. This

a place on the program for the

At least three Choptank River

any other classes that muster three

over. This includes the winner,
Jack Vail, of Norfolk.
The one-design classes race two

Ike Hale, veteran outboard driver
of Washington, hopes to clinch to-
morrow in races at Norfolk the title
as top amateur in region 4 OF the
American Power Boat Association.
If he succeeds, this will be the
third straight year for Ike. 1t also
permits him to carry Ell on his

and the l means No. ! driver for
the area.
Ike's boat, named Senator, still
carries E-3, which he earned prior
to the war. Amateur drivers are
designated by odd numbers and pros
by even numbers. Accordingly, the
numeral means driver is second
ranking in his region. 1t just so
happens that Hale hasn't gotten
around to making the change.

Calypso music has become one
Of Boston's most popular dance
favorites of recent years. Bcs-
tonians have responded to this
type of music with great en-
thusiasm. When Calypso comes
here everybody's anxious to hear
the rhythm of Calypso music.
1t has been said that this type
of music will make headlines in
the near future.
Calypso was originated in the
Caribbean Islands and has been
known for many years for its
rhythm long before swing music
became so advanced in New
York and popular amusement
spots.
Calypso has won the warm
feeling of thousands who love to
dance TO this type of music. In
fact, you don't even have to
dance, for it's such a pleasure
to sit down and listen to the
different style.
In Boston I have noticed at
several Calypso Dances, when
