Next Move Is Favored
In Cinderella Stakes
BY the Associated Press

INGLEWOOD. Calf, Nov. 25.-
Alfred G. Vanderbilt's three year
old filly of the year" Next Move
dominated a field of 10 three
year-old fillies today in the S25 ,00C
Cinderella Stakes at Hollywood
Park.
Vanderbilt's other priced filly
Bed O. Roses. was eligible for the
Cinderella but was named to make
her first start at Hollywood Park
in the co-feature of the day, the
$500 Labrea Handicap.
Vanderbilt doesn't like to rur
the youngsters against each other
so Bed o. Roses will travel against
mixed company in a teammate
with Vanderbilt colt, Stone Age
over the seven furlong distance.
The Cinderella, a mile and one.
sixteenth race. attracted some
other good looking fillies, notably
Special Touch, owned by James
Crofton. But Next Move stood al
the top of the class.
Next Move won six stakes in the
East this year and earned $189, zoe
in purses. She was beaten by You,
Host, a colt. here earlier in the
meeting, but figured to be toe
strong for her own sex in the
Cinderella.

have caught them up to more
than 100 in day. Some of the
fish run to good size, too, around
Ia pounds being tops.
All of which brings to mind a
subject that many anglers who
fish from roWboats with an out
board motor attached often fail
to take into consideration. Charts
of Chesapeake Bay and tributary
waters are obtainable for a NOM
inal sum from the United States
Coast and Geodetic Survey located
at 18th street and Constitution
avenue NV. A set of these
charts often will save the day for
you when the wind Is blowing
hard, for knowing the wind direc-
ton. it is an easy matter to locate
sheltered waters somewhere along
either shore where you will have
chance to take rockfish, as well
as other species at different sea-
sons.
If you find your chosen spot
for the Gay too rough, glance
at one or more of these charts
and an additional half hour or
SOS driving may easily put you
on an almost perfect set-up. Don't
forget that bait fish like quiet
water and the rockfish follow the
bait when they are on the feed.
And with a small skiff and an
outboard. you can get into waters
which the larger party-boa can
not reach. all of which adds to
the enjoyment of your days
outing.
In connection with the hunting
season for ducks and geese which
opens in this area at noon next
Monday. the 9th, we have nice
letter from Don Rainey, 2407 Iver-

shoot quail when you can catch

William Dub" Davis SAYS he
caught one of the birds in flight
last Saturday. just like base

Willingham. Explained Davis:
I'VE were in pretty thick cover
and this bird jumped up ahead
Of the dogs.
L stood there watching it fly
straight at me. I didn't want to
shoot because the bird was low
and I would have to shoot close
to the dogs. Then, too, figured
the going-away shot would be
easier.
"The bird came on. I watched
it without moving. Just as it
came by my shoulder I stuck out
one hand and-Wham, the bird
hit.
i clamped down on it the
way you do on a fast graunder.
My hand was numb and the bird
Was out cold.
That's the way it happened
anc it probably won't ever hap
pen to me again. And nobody
would believe that it did any
