FISHING SEASON OPENSTHURSDAY Fishing For All Kinds Os Fish In Indiana I’ermited After .June 16 Indianapolis Ind. June 15 —(UP) — The open season of lawful fishing for all kinds of fish in Hoosier publie waters begins Thursday, June 16 and already many Waltonites ire preparing to be on stream bank and lake edge to celebrate the event. According to George N. Mannfold, superintendent of fisheries and game for tlie state conservation tiepartmen', prospects for excellent lake fishing ar? bright. Such water bodies hav? not been materially affected by heavy rains. Although the continued cold weather curtailed natural propagation to a great extent. Just the reverse condition prevails In streams and rivers all of which have been out of their banks and many times this spring working havoc with spawning. He points out that this season more than ever before brings out the advantages of artificial propagation in the state’s five hatcheries, for the crop of baby fish taised this year will aid in making up the deficient natural reproduction caused by high water and unseasonable cold weather. The department has planted already this season 9,260.000 wall-eyed pike fry and 2.150.000 yellow perch. Each of the five hatcheries has produced some baby bass, but it is too early to] predict the season’s output, although officials hope it may exceed any previous season’s production. Each year brings a greater demand on the state hatcheries for stock fish, Mannfeld says, and last year the di vision planted many million young fish in 86 counties of Indiana. This artificial propagating and stocking, together with rigid law enforcement has gone far to make Indiana one of the best fishing states in the nation, lie declared. o ♦ ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦*♦♦ ♦ BASEBALL STANDINGS ♦!

GOLF SIMPLIFIED By Charles (Chick) Evans. Jr. i — _— >C\ JUet the ClubHEAD SvvIlNG L " KE Wt ' GHT You so DESIRE - BUT MOT MUCH - Begin Right 1927—The Midiron ' I once han an argument with a prominent golfer about the way 1 address] my midirron blade. He advised me to • allow the blade tp lie out a littfe so' ' that it appears as if it will move tiie ! I ball upwards. I agree with him to a ; I tiny extent. A great many pepple think i that when tlie club and ball meet the ; elbows and wrists should lie stiff, lint really’ a sort cf broken condition is best. I have seen many golfers sw’ng perfectly until the clubhead met the ■ ball, and then stop. Don't quit there It is wise to say to yourself every once-in-a-while: ‘‘Hold the hands just a little lewer.” Be sure to get that vibratory movement mentioned before, fcr without it you are lost. I like to think of the word "snap" when the bail is hit; also I like to try to get the weight of the steel on the ball. In the midiron shot i» is necessary to lake a little turf after the ball is hit. Thorughout the entire stroke, ! from the very beginning until the clubhead is brought down from the fullest kind of .a follow through there shoulrf be continuous motion. Think of just i bursting the clubhead into the ball. 1 Don’t try to hit the ball with the wrists I turned up. To convince yourself of tLe impossibility of tills take a club in your hands and turn your wrists up a great deal, and try to hit. You will then see : how absolutely necessary it is to have, i the wrists turned down. 1 like to address the ball about off the toe of my clubface. However, this is an inclivi- ( dual peculiarity, and I have had the I greatest amount of success in getting the club head so placed that it sweeps through the ball more naturally. I.’ ■ you hit the ball squarely you get '.hat > unmistakeable feeling of solid contact , which is so necessary to good golf. Rej lax to that point where the clubhead . swings like a weight. Do not turn the face of your club in or down so much
