There is a navigation dam above
Marietta and one below. Mani
pulation of these two dams will
create a lake condition where the
race is to be held. This is in con-
trast to the Poughkeepsie course
which was affected adversely by
tides. The Baltimore and Ohio
railroad parallels the Ohio river
for the entire length of the course
and special train with bleacher
seats will carry $500 people
from the start of the race to the
finish, keeping abreast of the
shells. These seats are already
sold. This train will leave the
Marietta Baltimore and Ohio sta
ton at 1870. At the end of the
course will be 10000 bleacher
seats which can be had for a
total admission price of SITS.
Anyone wanting these seats
should contact the Marietta COM
mitteeuat the Chamber of Com
merce in Marietta.
Three races will be held. The
first will be a two mile race for
freshmen starting at 2:30 P. M,
Eastern Standard Time. The sec
ond race will be a three mile
race for junior varsity crews.
This race will start at $40 P. M.
The third race will a three mile
varsity race starting at 400 P. M.
These races will be run regard
less of weather conditions.
Last year twelve universities
from all over the United States
participated in the race. At least
that many, and possibly more,
are expected this year. Last year
the winner of the two mile fresh
man race was the University of
Washington, Cornell was second.
The winning time was nine
minutes, forty-tWo and two
tenthS seconds. The winner of the
three mile junior VaNSity race
was the University of Washing
ton, with the Navy second. The
winning time was 16 minutes.
The three mile varsity race was
won last year by the University
of California, Washington second,
Cornell third, Navy fourth, and
Princeton fifth. The winning
time was fourteen minutes, forty
two and siX-tenths seconds. From
1925 to 194l the varsity race was
over a four mile course, but since
the race has been resumed after
World War II, the course has
been three miles.
Route z was formerly located
close to the Ohio river. The road
has been relocated, but the old
road is made of concrete and is
in excellent condition. This road
and the river bank will accomo-
date many thousands of people.
The price here will be 75c for
adults and 25c for children.
Shuttle busses will run from
Marietta out this old road with
passengers and will come back on
the new road to Marietta. 1t will
probably be more convenient for
most people to leave their cars

weekend but catches are still
way below normal for this time
of year.
A few fortunate fishermen
brought in respectable catches of

Many others had nothing to show

fore the big slaughter gets un-

ion of the old-timers.
A few nice bass were netted
over the weekend. Mrs. Dave

in four beauties-the smallest
measuring fifteen and one-halt

selves alone, will not bring about
the redemption of mankind.
Only by being patient, more
understanding, more thoughtful
and more tolerant of those with
whom we mingle, can a better
America and a better world be
achieved. Sympathetic under
standing and consideration of
our neighbors, our friends, yes,
even our enemies, will enable us
to overlook their real or imagin-
ary faults which so greatly an
noy us.
Within the last 33 years, Am
erica has fought two great wars
against cruelty and oppression
against the pagan doctrine that
any nation has the right to force
its dictum on another people.
Currently we are fighting cold
war with the dictators of an
other nation whose avowed goal
is to subjugate all the inhabitants
of the earth.
Did we fight these two shoot
ing wars in vain; are we now
fighting a losing cold war? An
honest appraial reveals that we
did and are. Unless America ex-
periences a spiritual regenera-
ton; if we do not substitute the
words sympathy, understanding
and sacrifice" for ''my rights and
gimmie" 1T is inevitable that we
will lose the cold war.
There is too much hatred, bru-
tality and suffering running
rampant throughout the world
today. AS the most prosperous
and enlightened nation on earth,
it behooves us to set an example
for the rest of the world. We
must resolve not to add to its
woes by any harsh word of overt
act. We must be cheerful, more
kind, more self-sacrificing in our
day-to-day contacts with our
fellow-Americans, beginning in
the bosom of our own families
and tanning out to all with
whom we come in touch.
Self-sacrifice is the child of
love, and love is of the being of
God. Yes, we need fewer relig-
ions and more religion-less ha-
tired and more love-less cursing
and more prayer-fewer gin
mics" and more giving. First, we
must purge ourselves, then ma
terial and spiritual victory must
ultimately be ours.

Seneca
Lake
Suualier
By Hank Stern

Fishing last weekend didn't
meet our expectations, despite
the weather. Hundreds of fisher
men lined the lake shores on
both Saturday and Sunday. They
had lots of fun, but landed few
worthwhile catches. Many ang-
lers worked the shoreline for six
or eight hours without netting
single crappie.
A pair of Columbus fishermen,
using a boat, brought in six fish
to show for a full days effort.
Old timers around Seneca at
tribute the poor fishing to the
low water temperature. Last
week it averaged 46 to 48 de-
grees. A rise of ten degrees or so
should result in much better
fishing conditions.

The bathing beach, park and
other facilities surrounding SEN
eca Lake are under the Supervi-
sion of the new lake superin-
tendent, Art Wingerter. Art, with
his wife and baby daughter,
moved into the new log cabin
uphill from the bathing beach
last fall. They'll be there the
year around.
Art is veteran and a gradu-
ate in park management. He has
employed a crew of life guards
and workers to keep things in
shape during the big summer
season that soon will be under
way. Adequate supervision has
long been needed around the
lake area, and the Conservancy
District made big stride in that
direction by securing an exper-
fenced and trained man like Art
Wingerter.

Work will soon begin on a
group of ten rental vacation
cabins. The Conservancy Dis

modate family groups wishing
comfortable living facilities dur
ing their Seneca Lake vacations
This plan has worked well at
Lake Hope, Pine Lake and other
Tecreational areas where the
state of Ohio has built rental
cabins. The comfort, convenience
and low rental fees have made
the state e-oWned cabins ex-
tremely popular to such an ex-
tent that reservations must be
made far in advance.
The ten cabins at Seneca will
be ready for occupancy late this
summer, according to present
plans. When. more complete in
formation is available I'll pass
