WITH BILL lEETCH

ing buddy. Bee Prescott, and
your scribe escorted an Army
colonel to Big Hunting Creek for
his first trip. He caught his limit
of five trout easily, but wanted
to catch the State limit, which
was then 10. So we moved to
Fishing Creek, where anything
goes, and turned him loose. In
less than an hour. and using only
dry flies of his own tying. he
caught his five additional trout,
and they were beauties. He
sneaked UP carefully on every
stretch of fiShable water, never
allowed himself to be seen by
the fish or cast a shadow; f1shed
very warily, as one would on a
stream where only native trout
abound. It taught us a lesson
we'll never forget. Fishing Greek
was supposed to have been
wormed out when the colonel
gave us the lesson.
So if you try any of these
stocked streams, give yourself a
chance. provided you have some
water to yourself. Literally crawl
up to the pool you hope to fish.
Never stand up If you can avoid
it. Don't tread heavily or dis
turb rocks. 1t will pay big divi-
dendS as a rule.

Harking back to last years
hunting season in West Virginia
is a most interesting study on
wild turkey shooting there. Ac-
cording to Wayne Bailey, game
management leader from Marlin
ton, hunters put in from 1000
to $500 hours of hunting in the
Monongahela National Forest
for each turkey killed. Says
Bailey, This seems like a pretty
low rate of success until we real
ize that 8 per cent of the hunters
saw turkeys, while only one of
each IL seeing turkeys killed
one." We still think this is a
low rate. If only about II of
every 100 even saw a turkey and
only one of these killed one, then
actually less than / per cent
of the hunters got a bird. How
ever, that's turkey shooting.
We await the figures on a
checkup on Big Hunting Creek
in Maryland on opening day of
the trout season. We have been
told some 5000 marked trout
were stocked in the stream prior
to the opening and another 1000
since. Preliminary figures showed
that about 400 anglers fished the
stream on opening day, but
caught only 600-odd trout, or
about fish and a half per angler.
Judging from angling methods
In evidence on opening day, we
are not surprised. There is no
use trying to fish for trout in
orthodox style on the initial day
of the season. However. If these
figures are reasonably accurate
1t does prove that even domes-
ticated, stocked trout can be
scared and refuse TO cooperate.
Many anglers will criticize the
commission for meager stocking
and say that figures have been
stretched. when actually they are
ut fault because of their lack Of
finesse. ,...

A ATCHISON'S
ANGLE
BY LEWIS 3. ATcHIsoN

q The seven old-time riders and
three active saddle artists whose
names will be placed on the bal
lot for the Jockeys Hall of Fame
at Pimlico were announced a
couple of weeks ago. 1t was no
picnic to select a list of what
amounts to the 10 all-time
greatest race riders in the sports
history in this country. But
now comes the even more
difficult task of picking the two
best old-timers and the king
pin of those still riding.
The last was comparatively
easy. Virtually the entire A
man nominating committee
listed Eddie Arcaro, Johnny
Longden and Ted Atkinson in
that order. The results of the
final balloting won't be an
nounced until the fall meeting
at Pimlico. where the Hall of
Fame is to be established, but if
Arcaro's name doesn't top the
list there1l be some surprised
looks in the pressbox.
A rider who has earned over
$l6 million in purses certainly
would get the owners votes, and
the New Yorkers who make a
Iot of Eddie'S mounts oddS-on
choices, regardless of form, and
their boo when he doesn't bring

However. those who have seen
him in action note that he appears
to be very happy in his role in the
sense that his work is part Of
the big game of basketball. and
after all Holman is Mr.. Basket
ball.
The tremendous developments
that have taken place during Hol-
mans 35 years of coaching con-
stitute a stirring chronicle Of the
sport. Fans Of the game will re-
call the many, many highlights,
the big teams that have come and
gone, and some of the all-time
stars whose fame will stand for
years to come.
Holman himself shared in a
good portion of these develop
ments. having built some Of the
best teams in the country. Also he
achieved distinction as a pioneer
in developing the basketball sport
in Israel. where he tutored on the
subject and helped prepare Israeli
teams.
The worst crisis in his career
came as a result of the basketball
scandals at City College. Holman
was suspended, but made vigor-
GUS fight and got his job back
after being cleared of the charges
While many felt that Holman
deserved criticism, there was
widespread view that he was
being made the scapegoat, that as
long as City College was able to
reap benefits from the policy OF
big time basketball and its in
herent evils, it was OK; but when
the situation blew sky high it was
necessary to find someone on
whom to place the blame.
At any rate. today Nat Holman
is doing the work he loves - and
his 35th year of it.

This and That

The members of the dove family

course, the little ground dove of
Mexico. which has coral red bill
1t is always possible. in looking
through field glass, to see blue where
there is no blue.
Something about some glasses gives
this effect.
Doves that might be blown in here
on the wings of storm are the Inca
dove, blackish bill, and the white
winged dove, black bill.
Our common dove, the turtle or
mourning dove, has black bill. but it
does have a blue tinge, especially
through some glasses.
These local doves differ materially in
coloration, some Of them being on the
brownish side. some blush, some gray.
and some buff.

happened to see flock, all members
related, which were rather on the blue
side.

also realize that the ruthless fanatics
in Moscow and Peiping will not hesitate
to use both hydrogen and atomic

The Shape of Wings to Come

However it comes about, tomorrow's
airplanes seem destined to be things Of
wondrous form and performance. Certainly
this will be so If today's visions of engineers
and scientists take wing from their draw
ing boards.
From London, for example, has come
a prediction that aircraft of glass fiber
fuselage will be flying the Atlantic Ocean
in future years at cruising speeds Of 1900
miles per our-approximately twice the
speed of sound and fast enough to make the
London New York trip in less than three
hours.
And from New York, via symposium
on aviation in 1885, has come broad variety
of predictions for aircraft development in
the relatively short time Of 80 years. DR..
Werner Won Braun, guided missile expert
with the United States Army, foresees 1000
mile an-hour airliners within that period
allowing breakfast in New York and the
nid-morning coffee break in Los Angeles.
DR.. Fred L. Whipple of Harvard sees atom
powered airliners so large that passengers
may have drawing rooms in the wings, and
he expects robot controlled rocketships to
be Streaking through the outer spaces.
These and other Seers talk in terms of jets,
ram-jets and power combinations-but all
tending toward greater simplicity of main
tenance and reliability Of operation. Most
of them see vertical-rising craft that will
turn on their horizontal speed in the upper
attitudes.
But from Canada, through the practical
eyes Of J. Geoffrey Notman, president OF

is characteristic, being the one thing
necessary for their Identification.
The turtle dove is favorite of most
suburban dwellers. Something about
the bird speaks of domesticity. He is
always around for one thing, preferring
home to foreign lands.
His soft COO is heard at all hours,
and to some it is melancholy. to other
listeners just right, with the ring of
truth in every syllable.
Perhaps this is partly nostalgia. since
the sound it makes, scarcely song, is
one which always attracts the attention
of children.

true, but the tone quality is rich, dra-
matte. throaty. reminding the hearer

The dove must have decided that 1t
had enough, for suddenly it raised its
wings and bore down on the jay. The

After that, the dove was unbearable,
