—Let’s Go Fishing— SIX MEOAISTO BE AWARDED IN FISH CONTEST Walter Jones to Be Donor; Waltonites Prepare for Big Convention. BY LEFTY LEE Times Fisfcinr Editor This is the day the Let s Go Fishing column wishes to introduce to you fishing lans a fine sportsman and a real fisherman— Walter Jones of the George J Mayer Company. Jones is so interested in the sport that he suggested a contest that would reward the anglers who caught the largest bass before Nov. 1, and promised that if The Times would conduct this contest, he would furnish a bronze medal to the winner, in both the large and small-mouth bass classes. After this start the idea grew that one medal in each division would not be an inducement, if someone : landed a whopper eariy in the contest. So it was decided to present three medals in each class, the winner in each event receiving a gold I award; second, a silver and third, a bronze medal. The medals in all classes are the Ram' in design and something any angler well can be panud of if he Is fortunate enough to win on* No red tape is connected in any way with this contest, the only requirement being that the fish be caught in an Indiana lake, stream, gravel pit or pond, and that the fish be brought to The Times to be weighed and registered. Be sure to remember this last rule, as the fish positively must be entered In this manner. With the j arrival of cool weather, thp big l ones should start hitting, and the catch over Labor day is expected j to produce some finp entries. A letter from Charles Kleinhans of Lafayette tells of a well-balanced list of events at the eleventh annual convention of the izaak Walton League of Indiana in Lafayette, Sept. 4. 5 and 6 The following manufacturers of fishing tackle have shown their approval of the program by offering prizes for the different events; J. J Hildebrandt Company, James Heddon <S i Sons, South Bend Bait Company, Hor-rocks-Ibbotson Company, Frank A Hoppe. Inc.; Ocean City Manufacturing Company, United States Line Company. Edward K. Tryon Company, Edward Von Hope & Cos., Your Grip Manufacturing Company, Weber Lifelike Fly Company, Marathon j Bait Company. Willmarth Tackle Company, Creek Chub Bait Company. Shies Drug Company. Gephart Manufacturing Company, B. F. Gladding 6c Cos., Asheway Line and Twine Manufacturing Company and Bronson Reel Company. The Waltonians are all set for a big time and these added awards j should add to the enjoyment of the i convention. The fish that were trapped in lowwaters this year certainly received prompt attention from the department of conservation. On a report that Widewater, a pond near the Monon shops at Lafayette, was drying up. Warden White called on j Carl Hamilton. Harold Underwood, j Lawrence Rodgers and John Mack, j and they rescued between 40.000 and 50,000 fingerlings from the pond, and placed them in the Wabash river and Wild Cat creek. The fish rescued included bass, hlup gill, crappie. and catfish. Dr W. S. Walters of West La-! fayette again comes to the front with a dandy small-mouth bass, this time a three-pound thirteen-ounce one. The Doc had a thrilling battle with this one. as he was using a fiveounce fly rod w hen he struck

—•Dietz on Science — CHILDREN WHO MOVE ON ALL FOURS STUDIED Tots Who Imitate Animals Likely to Be Unusually Strong and Active. BY DAVID DIETZ Scripps-Howard Science Editor A childhood trick is being studied by one of America's best known scientists. He is Dr. Ales Hrdlicka. famous anthropologist of the Smithsonian Institution, who is studying the habit of children of identifying themselves with animals. The intensity with which some children enter into this game makes Dr. Hrdlicka think that perhaps it i is an inheritance from ancient pre- , human ancestors. A few years ago, Dr. Hrdlicka announced the result of a study of more than a decade of children who run on all fours. He collected instances from all parts of the world of small infants who ran around on hands and legs like small animals. Strong and Active In every instance he found that these children were unusually strong and active. He believes that all infants would do the same if they ! were sufficiently- strong in the months perior to the time that they learn to walk. This running on all fours, he believes, is an inheritance also from pre-human ancestors. Recently, Dr. Hrdlicka has found that some small children who run on all fours identify themselves as animals. The two phenomena, however, are not always found together. In some instances, Dr. Hrdlicka ! says, the imitation of animals by children goes so far that the child seems to speak and understand “the language of animals,” imitating their gestures in animal detail. Regard Selves as Animals He also finds cases where the chil- ; dren insist upon regarding themI selves as animals instead of chil!dren. “There are Instances of youngj stars who for weeks at a time will not respond to their own names, j which they know well, but will come immediately when their mothers address them as dogs,” he says. “Among lonely children in pari ticular this form of behavior may develop and continue for a long time. There seems to be a recognition of kinship which passes out ;of consciousness after early childhood.” Wants Parents’ Help Dr. Hrdlicka is engaged in collecting instances of these sorts of behavior from all over the world. He is eager to get authentic reports from parents and others in constant | contact with very young boys and ! girls. “There is no reason to believe,” he says, “that these forms of be- | havior indicate any inferiority. Quite the contrary, in fact, is often j shown by the further natural development of the “animal children.” | Dr. Hrdlicka describes the rather | unusual case reported to him by a j scientist who found a small boy and Ia pig wallowing together and gruntj ing at each other in a mud puddle in the yard of a lonely western I farmhouse. Considers Self Pig “The child, who had no human playmates and whose parents were \ | too busy to give him much atten- j ! tion. considered himself a pig, and ! behaved in every particular like the quadruped." Dr. Hrdlicka says. “The ! two seemed to understand each * other. The boy now is an honor student in an eastern college. “Another child developed a special proficiency at imitating horses. He | would render every sound a horse j makes with its hoofs and his parents i could not break him of the habit for a time. “Still another boy imitated perfectly the bark of every dog in the neighborhood and seemed to have a mutual understanding with the ani- j mals.” NRA SELECTION OF SLOAN IS ATTACKED Labor Men Bitterly Assail Record of Edison Company President. By United Pres* WASHINGTON. Aug. 31. An- ! nouncement, that Matthew S. Sloan, former president of the Brooklyn ! Edison Company, has been asked , to join NRA robably to take charge j of checking on blue eagle violators, | has brought forth vigorous protest ; from the Brotherhood of Edison ; Employes. “The Brotherhood of Edison Em- j ployes believes emphatically that | the appointment of Matthew S. Sloan as an official of NRA seriously will undermine confidence of the consuming public and labor in the recovery program, and that his presence as such official would not be in keeping with the spirit of NRA.” says a letter just forwarded to General Hugh S. Johnson. “It was under Sloan's stewardship of the Brooklyn Edison Company in ! 1931 that wholesale layoffs 'of employes tcok place while the com- j pany increased its dividend payments to the highest record in thir- i ty years,” the letter continues.
