A few catfish are being caught

the water warns and the days
become more balmy. more and
more anglers open their season
with this sort of fishing. Cat
fish take almost any sort OF bait

a number of inquiries about shad

cies. The dates listed IN our
columns of past years show that
last year the perch were taken
at Fletcher's on March 81 for the
first good day. Herring were
running strong in the Patuxent
at this time, but there were few
in the Potomac. However they
swarmed in that week end. In
1852 herring appeared in num-
bers at Chain Bridge on March
10 and the perch on March 26.
In 1851 the herring showed up
early, March 7 at Chain Bridge.
However there was some high
water following and the perch
did not appear in numbers I'M

The first hickory shad of rec
ord taken on hook and line at
Queen Anne's Bridge in the
Patuxent last year was on March
20, but the run was very thin
at the time. 1t is usually mid
April or later when these fish
appear at Chain Bridge and are
then caught with hook and line.

NEW YORK IN ~ Those experts
who follow the daily fortunes of
the Yankees are convinced now
that Casey Stengel will retire to
his swimming pool in Glendale, as
his wife has been begging him to
do for three years, if he fails to
win his sixth straight pennant.
They recall that at his birthday
party early in the season Casey
said seriously eff ! can't win with
this team, then / ought to quit and
let them hire a manager who can.
Players are hired to win, and so
are managers" CaSey's listeners
did not pay him too much miVd at
the time, but as the tide goes
against him they feel certain he
meant 1t.
For one thing, they have known
all along that he was bitterly dis
appointed when George Weiss, the
Yank general manager. abruptly
sold pitcher Vic Raschi to the st.
Louis Cardinals early in spring
training.
Casey didn't realize that Weiss
was on the point Of exploding be-
cause Raschi, who was holding out
in . beach cottage only q few miles
from Yankee headquarters, had
not even called him by phone to
discuss the terms Of his con-
tract.
eff I'd known how it was" STEM
gel told a reporter, 'I'd a seen to
It that Raschi called him. I could
win another pennant if I had him. "
So, if Cleveland wins and Casey
calls it a long career, there are
those who always win think it
would have been different If 4
$4,000 a year pitcher had spent
10 cents at the right time.
