He cast, yanked in his catches in a businesslike manner and let the taciturn guide take them from the hook. Here he is shown watching Leßoque complete the landing of a rainbow trout. The President was not sufficiently proud of the catch to pose with it before the photographers. So he called for the fine three and one-half pound rainbow trout he had caught several days before. Mr. Coolidge’s sportswear consisted of a ten-gallon hat, Brule mackinaw, high stiff collar, khaki trousers and high lace boots. Hoosiers Kill Fifty Bats Bn Times Special PETERSBURG, Ind., July 6.

SMITH MAY BE CALLED ON TO STWPHATMN Hundreds of Cities Insist on Personal Visit by N. Y. Governor. BY PERCY B. SCOTT United Press Staff Correspondent ALBANY, N. Y., July 6.—Despite the desire of Governor Alfred E. Smith to spare himself a strenuous presidential campaign, it is probable that the Democratic presidential candidate will be kept on the road most of September and October. Hundreds of messages have begun pouring in on the Governor, most of them insistent, that he show himself in this or that town through the West and far West during his campaign. A tour embracing a dozen or fifteen of the largest cities in the nation had been outlined for the candidate, to be supplemented by radio talks and press interviews, but on the eve of the visit of Senator Key Pittman to the Governor, this plan seems about to be abandoned. Likes to Meet People It is argued that Smith’s most valuable asset is his personality, and that this is entirely lost by radio, so he must get out and meet the people. While the Governor is now feeling in the best physical condition of years, he is not taking any too kindly to the idea of 50 or 75 talks in as many different cities, embracing most of the West, Northwest and Pacific Coast States. But on the other hand. Smith likes to meet people, and this, more than any other one thing, may induce him to submit to a long speaking trip. Back at Desk Today The Governor was back at the executive mansion today, enjoying a relief from the intense heat which hung over New York City while he was there. Senator Pittman is expected here late today, and probably will be the week-end guest of the Governor at the mansion. While here he will settle, with the Governor, the date for the official notification ceremonies, expected to be held in Albany. Smith is devoting some thought to a vacation to begin late next week, during which he will prepare his acceptance speech. He has been advised to go to Maine, and also has an offer of a summer mansion in the Adirondacks at Brant Lake. May Stay in Albany He also has an idea that he might remain in Albany and make a number of short trips from here leaving the work of the State Government to his assistant, George B. Graves. His schedule next week calls for onl ytwo engagements. Tuesday he will visit the Boy Scouts’ camp at Bear Mountain, and Wednesday he wtll confer with the national Democratic committee in New York. At that time he will meet his running mate, Senator Joseph T. Robinson, for the first time since the nomination was made at Houston. ACREAGE CUT FORESEEN Less Ground May Be Put in Wheat for 1929 Crop Wheat acreage in Indiana for the 1929 crop may be less than normal, according to information received by I. H. Hull, general manager of the purchasing department of the Indiana Farm Bureau. Representatives of the department from many sections of the State report that about three-fourths of the wheat growers will not ahve seed to, plant. It will be necessary for them to purchase seed wheat and it is evident that they will limit teeir purchases to the minimum, Hull says. He urges each grower to sow a normal acreage and predicts that a fair price return will be received.
