@. At Fairhope, Ala, on the shore Of
Mobile Bay there is at times what Is
called a 'fish jubilee" What Is the ex-
PLANTATION for this?-J. Mel.
A. The Fish and Wildlife Service says
that one theory is based on the weather
reports of weather conditions prevailing
at Mobile when the jubilee of 1946 took
place At that time there was violent
thunderstorm followed by excessive rain
fall, which disturbed the usual pattern
of onshore and offshore winds. The wind
blew from the north and northeast and
drove the salt water out Of the mouth
of the bay. Its place was then un-
doubtedly taken by fresh water from the
Alabama River and other streams. Per-
haps the sudden merging of the fresh
waters from the Alabama rivers and the
salt waters of the Gulf, commencing
midday and spreading shorewards,
created a water condition sickening to
the fish and forced them to rush land
ward before the tide. The other theory
presented is that since these jubilees fol-
low long period Of rainfall. the fish,
accustomed to the warm salt waters.
swim shoreward before the cool-water
tide when the chill rain waters flood the
bay in such quantities as to lower con-
siderably the temperature Of the water.

Walker Cup Partners,
Sweetser and voigt,
May Clash Sunday
By MerreII WhittIesey

George Voigt and Jess Sweet
ser, Walker Cup Scotch foursome
partners in 1882, may be paired in
the same foursome as opponents
next Sunday when Prince Georges
and Elkridge meet in a semifinal
match in the Maryland State team
series.
The team captains probably will
upset their usual pairings in order
to permit two of the Nations for
n1er amateur greats to renew old
times. Sweetser played in the
second fourSome in Elkridge's 1913
victory over Manor yesterday,
Voigt in the fourth as Prince
Georges won over Rolling Road,
131a-4Ka.
SweetSer, the 1922 National
Amateur and 1925 British Anna
teur champion, played on six
Walker Cup teams, but in 80 at
Brookline. he and Voigt drubbed
Rex and Lister Hartley of Britain,
7 and 6, in the alternate shot play.
Elkridge Sparkles.

winner over Kenwood. The site of
both matches-and that's ex-

play as 10 home course teams

terday. = III
Elkridge is the upstart of the
semifinalists. Golf seldom Is
taken seriously at the exclusive
Baltimore club and it hasn't been
represented in the team series
since 1910. This year the golf
committee decided to get its top
IL amateurs together and per-
suade its elderly pro. late 60-ish
Jimmy Roche, to play. They drew
the Country Club of Maryland,
winners in three of the last four
years, in the first round and to
the complete surprise of both
teams won easily.
Elkridge over its home course
yesterday ambuShed Manor and if
the flip of the coin is kindly next
week. it can give Prince Georges
trouble if the match is at Elkridge
Manor only won two matches,
with Pro Clagett Stevens and Ted
Burrows scoring best ball 81 to
beat Roche and Alex Knapp and
Harry Pitt and Ralph Gibson win
ming over John Morgan and R. U.
Patterson. Stevens, putting one
handed, knocked in six puts of
more than Is feet. The match was
old-home-week for Pitt, as the
Elkridge team included a number
of his steady victims when he was
this sections top amateur golfer.
Sweetser Retains Touch.
Sweetser still retains a nice
touch. He was II and with eX-
Maryland Amateur Champion Bill
Eager won the odd point from
Billy Grimm and Earl McAleer
Voigt paired with Jim Gipe to
contribute three points to the
Prince Georges victory. Rolling
Road held the favorites even for
three matches. but Prince Georges
had too much strength down the
line. Kenwood took one of the
worst trouncings in the history
of the series at Five Farms, while
Bethesda took full advantage of
its home course to score the mild

Next day, like as not, the poster

This sly battle of the posters"
is generally waged at night by
rival gangs of billboard boys: One
for the movie outfits and the other
for the governments morals de-
partment.
Once, the eagle-eyed M-men (MI

poster.
Away with this indecency,"
cried the M-men.
But they hadn't reckoned on
art-loving Italians who rose in
wrath.

chorused-and back it came.
With Holy'Year here, the gov

Its moral censorship bit.
Woman Senator Wins.
A grandmotherly Socialist Sena-
tor, Angelina Merlin, recently
won a year-long parliamentary
battle to paddock Italy's houses of
prostitution. Police had usually
winked at the clandestine houses
before that.
Now. police wagons roam about
nightly in search of streetwalkers,
picking up known prostitutes in
bars and cafes. They are hustled
to a medical center for examina-
ton. If suffering from venereal
disease, they are cured in govern
ment camps. If not, they are lee
tured. listed and set free.
In Italy. unlike France, hotel
keepers are charged by police with
renting rooms only to married
couples. Passports and other Gre
dentiaIs are closely checked.
Communist editors have re-
ceived suspended court sentences
for attacking the Pope. "Defama-
ton Of the head of a foreign

The M-men watch newsstands
Tor appearance of indecent and
obscene magazines. They are
seized and orders for their banish-
ment are published in the press.
Down at the beaches the M-men
are busy keeping bare midriffs
covered and shorts longer.
A heavier breakdown against
indecency and immortality is due
this month when the government
presents to parliament a bill
which would levy heavy fines
against publishers of. obscene or
immoral material. If this per
suasion" fails, the government
would force the publishers to sub
NIT all future editions to pre-

Labor Prospects.
Here is what the crystal gazers
see ahead for business:
/. Labor: Wages are on the way
up in many industries. Some ex-
pect unions to ask for still higher
pay by the end of the year.
Already some companies are
scrambling for workers-in sharp
contrast to the start of World War
II. when there was a large pool
Of jobless men. Shortages OF
skilled auto labor sparked the re-
cent general wage boosts in De-
troit. West Coast aircraft makers
look to the East for skilled me-
chanics. New England textile
Woodworking, machine tool and
jewelry plants are reported shop
ping for trained men.
The Labor Department esti-
mates that a full-scale mobiliza-
ton would mean a drain of sc
million workers from production
of purely civilian goods. (That is
around 10 per cent of the present
total labor force.) Meanwhile,
partial mobilization will mean
drafting of more young men, call
ing up of more trained Reserve
officers.
Taxes Will Milk Earnings.

These are reported to be: 3 mil

to 100 groups: and a navy built
around 27 carriers.
