Claude Blonensrd discovered a
new bait Sunday over which the
speckleds arc simply crazy. Pin
fish.
Claude was fishing with dead
shrimp in the grass by Petit Bots
with Mrs. Blanchard. The
speckleds wouldn't hit but the
spade fish would. Mr.. and Mrs.
Blanchard boated q good tub full
Of them. Then Claude hooked 2
pinfish. He was resling in, rad
the fish about l6 feet from the
boat, when a speckled hit. And
kept on going. with half the pin
fish in him.
Claude then baited Mrs. Blan-
chard's hook with a pinfish. She
cast out ana, boom, the bait was
taken. This one was hooked but
it didn't bother him. He just ran
off with bait, hook and line. Mrs.
Blanchard was unable even to
turn the reel.
After that, Claude had three
pinfish neatly bitten in half BY
the hungry speckleds. Then he
hooked the pinfish in the tail in
stead of the belly and that did
the trick. They ended the day
with five speckleds, weighing
from four to four apd a hall
pounds.

Ted And Stephens
Top Batting Poir

New York-AS if the Yankees
hadn't had enough injuries, two
Boston Red Sox are trying to
bea: their brains out with bats.
Vern Little Slug Stephens
and Ted (Big Slug Williams are
the pair of club-wielders with
mayhem on their minds. And if
the Boston entry is the Amerl-

World Series, the two sluggers
must receive the major share of
the credit.
AS the Yankees and Red Sox
charged into the final phase of
the AL flag chase. Stephens and
Williams were running one-two

sluggers trailed far behind.
Not since Babe Ruth and Lou
Gehrig tore down fences back
to-back for the old Yankees has
an American League team boast
ed as potent a boom-boom punch.
Should Stephens continue at
the runs batted-in rate he MAIN
tanned over the first three-fourths
of the season, he would register
the highest total since Hank
Greenberg's 1873 in 1887. A slight
step-up in RBI production would
bring a new AL record to top
Gehrig's 1874 of 1881, for either
or both of the stars.
Shortstop Stephens, although
always rated a power hitter dur

Smith, confessed killer of John
Haines, cab driver January Is,
194S, was saved from execution at
Bellefonte last Saturday night by
the governor just five hours before
the former Army veteran was to
die in the electric chair.
Smiths execution was stayed by
Gov. James H. Duff who made 1t
clear that he was not doing this OF
his own accord but that it was
merely technical move brought on
by writ of habeas corpus issued
by U. S. District Court Judge George
A. Welsh. The governor also stat
ed that this was not reprieve; that
after the writ has been duly dis
posed of, the death sentence will
still be in effect and another date
of execution will be set.
