Notes from the fishing vest:
Heard a commercial netter
talking last week at Clayton's
Marina on Smiths Greek. Said
300 boxes of hardheads were
taken on the Middle Grounds
and 500 more up the Potomac.
A box totals 100 pounds. Haven't
heard of sport fishermen taking
many in the Potomac. They're
there if you can find them.
Scientists, by the way, doubt
that either commercial or sport
fishing is to blame when croak-
ers are scarce. In fact, sport
and commercial fishermen to-
gether catch only one in 10
hardheads that disappear from
the bay each summer. biologists
at the Virginia Fisheries Labo-
ratory at Gloucester Point say.
"Of all the older croakers
entering the capes from the At
lantic each spring, two-thirds
apparently die or disappear be-
fore they return to the ocean
in the fall" Anthony Pacheco.
a biologist, said. Pacheco has
been analyZing the returns of
fish tags from croaker fisher
man during the last two years.
However, only one-tenth of
the total deaths can be attrib-
uted to fishermen he added.
William H. MaSsman, in
charge of the laboratory's fin
fish investigations, said that
age analysis studies have in
dicated that croakers are not
particularly long lived. The
rate of decline in numbers of
older fish in the bay compare
closely with the estimate made
from tag returns.
These results, Massman con-
tinued. counter the traditional
idea that the decline of fishery
is invariably due to too many
fish being caught. Although
this may definitely be so from
some fisheries, it has not been
demonstrated to be a primary
cause for decline of the hard
head sherry.
Natural causes of decline, he
explained, though not as OBJ
vious as the fish they see
landed in their boats, often
play a major part in bringing
about a scarcity.
Many natural conditions re-
duce the numbers of fish in the
bay" Massman pointed out.
These include long periods of
unfavorable weather, disease
and increased numbers of other
fish which may compete for
food or may prey on the
croakers.' ;

trip will show you how much
extra braking is necessary, par
ticularly if you were called on
to make a sudden stop.
Remember in turning corners
to allow extra room so that the
trailer wheels will not hit the
curb. Remember also to allow
extra room when passing an
other vehicle. A practice trip
also will show you how the
trailer affects pickup and how
much reserve power your car
would need to pass another in
heavy traffic.
Backing Is Big Test
Next comes the big step, the
one that usually battles the
novice. That's in backing down
a launching ramp.
Suburban parking lots are
usually empty on Sundays. Pick
out one and practice backing

Here Are Safety Rules
The AAA has a good set Of
safety rules for trailer travel:
when hauling a boat
trailer. drive at a slower rate
Of speed. You may have to
stop suddenly and longer stop
ping distances are required.
2-In turning, corners, allow
extra room for the trailer. You
also should take this into con-
sideration in passing.
3-Sharp turns should be
taken at less than normal
speeds, especially on rough
roads, as the trailer may tend
to broadside.
Make certain that the
trailer hitch is tight. For all
but the lightest rigs, the hitch
should be attached to the car
frame. not just the bumper.
5-Use a safety chain be-
tween the car and trailer. It is
required in many States.
Stop and tail lights on
the back Of the trailer are re-
quired in most States.
Use rejecting tape or re-
Electors as clearance markers
on the back of trailer or boat.

disconnected. Reflectors are re-
quired by law in many States.

The pet gripe of marine res
cue patrols, the Coast Guard
and other groups dedicated to
keeping boatmen everywhere
out of trouble are the char
acterS who have enough fuel
for a one-hour run and go one
hour straight out.
Maybe you think this is an
eXaggeration. Two weeks ago
I saw a Coast Guard patrol
craft head in through an inlet
with a string of five small run
abouts in tow.
Later talked to a chief who
had been in charge OF the
rescue. Not an engine failure
in the bunch, just no gas.
Some guy could make a
fortune cruising out three or
four miles and selling fuel for
a couple Of bucks a gallon" "
the chief said.
1T happens every week end.
One Sunday last summer l
must have towed in at least
two dozen dry tankers. One
joker even yelled to me I
he was okay. About Is minutes
later picked him up just off
the breakwater. He'd run out
of gas. Figured he could make
it m easy"
It's a long way between fill
ing stations when you're in a
boat. And a few gallons of
fuel can mean the difference
between a pleasant day on the
water and a tragedy If a storm
happens to be brewing.

trailer cradle. If the boat is
secured to the trailer by rope
or straps, check occasionally
for looseness.
Avoid Wetting Bearings
Now you're at the water. II
possible, roll the trailer into
the water Just short Of hub
cap depth. With a fitting
trailer it Is seldom necessary to
roll it any deeper. This will pre-
vent water from rusting your
wheel bearings.
Before launching be certain
that the drain plug is inserted
in the stern Of your boat II 1t
came equipped with such a
device. Otherwise, you may find
boat and gear very quickly at
the bottom.
If the gear isn't aboard, lay
it on the pier and step aboard
first. Then either reach for it
or have someone hand 1t to you.
Never step into a boat with
arms loaded with equipment.
Also, If you do not want to
wind up in the drink, do not
step on the gunwale in board
ing, but step well into the boat.
Next check your equipment.
Are the youngsters wearing life
preservers? Is everyone seated

that boats approaching have

On Various Philippine Issues

by the same ideals and striving to
achieve the same goals.
A. The most immediate problem
we have to resolve concerns the
bases. The fact we are talking is
a practical indication that the us
government is always ready to sit
down and discuss any point in our
relations that the Philippine gov
eminent may wish to raise.
5. 1t is the hope of the u. S.
that the Filipino never will doubt
the value of protection, to the
Philippines themselves and to the
other members of the free world
in this area, that these bases in
the Philippines afford. Let no one
doubt, therefore, the role that the
Philippines is playing in the de-
Tense of the free world by merely
making such bases available on its
soil.
6. The u. s., contrary to false
allegations, does not frown on clio
ser Philippine relations with AS
ian countries.
Z. American foreign aid has no
strings attached. The U. S. has
not sought and does not seek to
bind the free independent nations
of the world to follow blindly, con-
trary to their own feelings, this or
the other aspect of American pol
icy. The u. S. endeavors to give
aid on the basis of justification
and need.
