AN GIL E
BY LEWIS +. ATcHlsoN

Reports of efforts by at least
two groups to buy the Chicago
Cardinals are intriguing. Here
are a couple of outfits bidding
big dough for a last place out:
fit on the verge of beginning all
over again with a new coach,
and with no guarantee of sue
cess. The Cards were last in
the National Football Leagues
East@n Division, their 80 rec
ord matched only by Green Bay
in the Western Division.
A group of Houston BUSH
neSsmen-and you should know
the kind of buSiness-want to
take the Cardinals down there.
A California syndicate, headed
by Ron Waller, Los Angeles
Rams halfback and time
Maryland star. also wants to
buy the club. But Waller
and his pals would move the
franchise to Miami, Fla. Ron
says he's willing to gar ole on
Miami, pointing out that Danny
Reeves took a chance in moving
the Rams from Cleveland to Los
Angeles in 1916.
Miami is the place where the
SeahawkS foundered in the ALL
American Conference, and
where supporters Of college
football are girding to fight any
pro threat. It's also a place
where tourists don't show up
until after the football season,
land it further happens to be one
of the Redskins TV outlets. We
doubt that Waller could get
enough votes to move the Car
dinals to Miami-if his group
did buy them.

Houston hardly seems to be
the place for pro football, with
no suitable stadium, at this
writing. and with folks down
that way all wrapped up in
the Southwestern Conference.
They play wide open football
in the Southwest, or diu before
Paul Bryant went there. and
the customers may not be in a
mood to switch allegiance to
the pros. They weren't six
years ago when Ted Collins

cate. renamed the Texans, and
collapsed before the end of the
season. Texas breeds outstand-
ing pro players. but not nee
essarily pro fans.
Baltimore, curiously enough,
inherited both the Seahawks
and the Texans. But, pro foot
ball didn't click there until the
fans put up some 100000, in
the guise Of season ticket pur-
chases, to guarantee that the
franchise would be solvent for
an entire season when the Colts
were admitted to the NIL in
1853. 1t has been a bonanza
since, thanks to some interest
ing teams, but no one dared
predict that 1t would succeed.
$50
Walters group, getting back
to the Cardinals. offered Sis
million for the Cardinals. The
sum offered by Houston was
not disclosed, but it must have
been stable to even get the
eye of Walter Wolfner, manag-
ing director Of the team.
Strangely, the syndicate that

This and other suggested
changes IN Coast Guard regu-

FORE AND AFT
BY MALCOLM LAMBoRNE

Bill Jarvis. one Of the few
sailing shippers ever to head
the 43-year-old Potomac River
Power Squadron. has come up
with a new approach to the
outfits annual graduation
program for new members of
the squadron.
In the past. the msn and
women receiving certificates in
dicating they have successfully
passed the free course in pilot
ing-and emitting at least the
men to join the squadron-have
been asked to get into formal
clothes and spend an evening
at dinner and dancing. Some
where along the way, the new
corners get their certificates.
Jarvis and his staff have de-
cided that next Wednesday eve
ming will be graduation time in
the old tradition. The affair
will be held in the Department
tai Auditorium starting at 8
pm.
AS principal speaker, the
squadron has tapped the very
articulate and well informed
chief counsel of the House Mer-
chant Marine Committee. John
NJ. Drewry. He will speak on
the need for undermining boat
ing laws AS chief counsel,
Drewry has been intimately
connected with the Bonner
Committee hearings Of 1856 and
1857 on pleasure boat safety. its
report of last April and the sub
sequent legislation bearing the
name Of Chairman Herbert
Bonner, Democrat Of North
Carolina.
Lee Harris, chairman of the
squadron's local Board of Ad-
missions. will be master Of
ceremonies for the Wednesday
affair. and guests will include
National Rear Commander
Matthias F. Reese and Fifth
District Commander William
Tretbar, both of Baltimore.
The graduating class, in
cidentally, is a new record for
numbers-233 men and SO
women.
The Bonner boating bill is
going to carry a new number.
AS a result of weeks of con-
sultation with a group from
the Council of State Govern
ments. the measure has been
revised somewhat from the bill
introduced last session. Enough
changes have been made to call
for a clean" bill which is due
for introduction any day now.
1t will form the basis for
hearings of the Bonner Com
mittee starting somewhere

what a fast-growihg leisure

It's surprising, too, because
Washington has virtually no

HUNTING
AND
FISHING

The last fishing season on
Chesapeake Bay was remark
able both in the number and
variety of fish caught. Salinity
of the water due to drouth was
given as a major reason for at
tracing many strange salt-wa-
ter fish into the bay.
Now comes a story via ASSo-
ciated Press from Southern
California that last year was
the best ocean sports fishing
year that biologists at the State
Fish and Game Department
can remember. Furthermore,
this season promises to be just
as good.
John Baxter, a biologist, says
it's because the Pacific is av-
eraging about 5 degrees warm
er. Winds that usually speed
Arctic water toward Southern
California have been slack and
warm Mexican coastal waters
have been drifting north. These
are bringing schools of yellow
tail. barracuda, bonito, sea bass
and mackerel.
Even dolphin, rare in these
waters. have been taken along
with some fish never caught of
Southern California. These in
clude the skipjack, a chubby
member of the tuna family.
Commercial fishermen took
242,600 yellowtail last season,
four times the number caught
In the previous record year,
1852, the biologist said.

Thumb First, Then Fingers
Here's a tip or two that might
improve your bowling.
l. When trying to play I'M
familiar alleys, the most i'm
portant thing is to find the
pocket angle that's easiest for
you to hit. Then, stay with that
angle. Adjust the speed of your
ball or the finger lift or turn
which you apply to the ball,
but stay with the angle that
you can hit most consistently.
2. Keep your wrist firm and
extend your arm as you bring
the ball forward for delivery.
