Hope 10 Find
Elusive Marlin
BY CHARLES COvELL

OCEAN CITY. Md, July g.
With minds untroubled by the
poorest fishing in memory
and stomachs only mildly dis
turbed by the lobster, chicken,
crabs and clans they had put
away in a pre-tournament
beach party, 80 teams started
out today in the 18th Interna-
tional Light Tackle Tourna-
ment.
A strong southeaster was
blowing as the boats headed
out this morning, bringing with
it heavy rains and rough seas.
The three-man teams repre-
Sented angling clubs from
Rhode Island to Florida, as far
West as Texas and California,
not to mention Puerto Rico and
Mexico. Seven of the teams
were made up largely or en-
tirely of Washingtonians.
The ocean was calm with
only a light southerly breeze
blowing as the feet put out for
a day of practice" fishing for
the elusive white marlin yes
terday. Many were sighted but
only five were caught. All but
one were released.
Jersey Men Get Two
Luckiest Of the pre-tourna-
ment anglers was Lew Marion

and Tuna Club. He caught two
aboard Captain Sam Cass' Eu-
genie VIII. Both were released.

being held today and tomorrow

Winning Streak Puzzles Mccarthy

Jack Mccarthy, winner Of
the D. c. Recreation tourna-
ment and Of the D. c. Public
Parks championship. is very
happy with his hot streak but
can't explain it. He says, 1--WE
got more confidence but this is
because more of the balls that
once were out are now landing
in the court"
Bob Cage, runner-up to Nc
Carthy in the Public Parks
event, is equally philosophical
about his tennis. Bob puts ii
this way, There are some
players I can beat and a good
many 1 can't. The fun l get
out of tennis is beating some
body I'm not supposed to beat. /"
Cage came very close to having
that fun in his two-day match

If there's anything more diff

know what 1t can be. Whether
you know your way around

Knowing the ropes, so to
speak. you Just can't control
that urge TO pitch in and lend
a hand now and then. With
some shippers this is appreci-
ated, with others it is not.
Once you've accepted the in
vitation to be guest, every
thing you do from then on
determines whether or not the
voyage will be a happy one.
Now you might get the idea.
for example. that the proper
start is to bring along some APP

you were spending the week

book, candy. thick steak
