his fleet last Tuesday took rs to
80 blues ranging from two to four
pounds. This would indicate not
only larger blues than those taken
up to this time, but also that the
fish are moving on up along the
Eastern Shore. They should be
off Poplar Island by this week
end, unless bad weather sets in.
Washington anglers are giving
a good account of themselves IN
the Miami Beach summer fishing

Stephen A. Gatti, jr., of this city
is in first place for mackerel with
a 10-pounder, which ties the tour
nament record. E. Wayne Tay-
lor, jr., of Bethesda, is in first
place for channel bass in the plug
casting division.
For some years past in certain
sections. regulated pheasant-shoot-
ing areas have been increasing
in popularity. Maryland is the
latest State to adopt regulations
permitting this practice. To those
not familiar with regulated pheas-
ant shooting, it simply means
that within certain limitations,
owners of land may raise, release
and shoot pheasants on their
property. The sport has been
commercialized in late years. and
a fat fee per bird charged for
outsiders. Any one interested in
establishing such a regulated
pheasant-shooting area in Mary
land should contact the CommiS-
sion of Game and Inland Fish,
sic Munsey Building, Baltimore 2,
Md. The new law becomes ef-
fective as Of today.

We frequently have requests for
information about fishing posi-
bilities in Deep Creek Lake, par
ticularly black bass. During July,
fishery investigators from Mary
lands commission made some
studies and came up with inter-
esting data. Approximately 5000
anglers fished the lake, putting in
$4,000 man hours. 1t took the
average angler 2l2 hours to catch
one fish. Fifty-four per cent Of
the anglers caught no fish, SO
per cent caught 48 per cent and
10 per cent took So per cent of
the fish. OF the total catch, 80
per cent were black crappie, 27
per cent yellow perch. 8 per cent
small mouth bass of which only
one-fifth were keepers, and 5
per cent large mouth bass OF
which only half were keepers.
With only 10 per cent of the
anglers catching more than half
the fish, you can draw your own
conclusions.

Dainty vines and ferns and

this gigantic rock, adding
their delicate beauty to the
aWe-inspiring scene.
AS I studied the soft masses
of green on the twisting
branches of this fascinating
tree, I could hear the echoing
sound of waters as they have
flowed for ages through stone
so solid that 1t seems that
force equal only to an earth
quake could disturb, leaving
above an arch 200 feet in
height. This Natural Bridge,
over which heavy traffic
moves day and night, is a part
of one of our main highways

A MONG THE tall vine
IA covered trees that lean
over Cascade Creek at Natural
Bridge, Va, grows a large,
twisted, twig-matted arbor-
vitae, an ancient landmark
that old age and disease seem
to have passed by. Tree ex-
perts tell us it is one of the
largest and oldest trees of its
kind in the Eastern United
States. They say it takes 80
years for this hardy tree to
grow an inch.
Visitors from all over the
world have passed under this
tree, following the little wind
ing path down the hillside to
view Natural Bridge. This is
a famous beauty spot and a
superb accomplishment of ma
ture. Here the waters have
cut through the mountain!
This stanch arborvitae tree
stands beside the singing
stream which ripples over
smooth, worn. rocks forming
countless lacy waterfalls and
giving the rollicking waters
the name of Cascade Creek"

here he lived so close to ma
ture that the mountains, the
waters, the sun and the stars
seemed to speak a language to
him which he could under
stand.
This arborvitae, truly a
tree of life as its name sig
nifies, long ago had fastened
its roots in the crevices of the
rock so securely that time and
StormS-rain, lightning, wind
and snow-had left it uncon-
quered. While all trees and
shrubs grow luxuriantly in
this deep cove of water and
hill, this rugged sentinel of
the valley stood taller than
the oaks and pines and all the
other trees in the forest that
covered the mountainside.
