—Let’s Go Fishing— STATE ANGLERS READY TO OPEN 1934 CAMPAIGN Season 'Starts Tomorrow; Good ‘Take’ Predicted for First Week. BY GEORGE DENNY Times Fishine Editor Hie fishing season starts tomorrow. Thousands of Indiana anglers have checked and double checked their tackle, paid their dollar lor a license, contracted for a supply cf minnows or other live oait, picked the lake or stream and await the dawn of the biggest day of their year. Signs point to a good “take” in the first week or two of the season, at least. Streams, at mid-summer levels'two weeks ago, have been refreshened by general rains and while low in most parts of the state, are uniformly clear. Reports from all sections tell of an early and successful spawning season for bass and other game fish. The low water has not been as detrimental as was feared for a time. Certainly it is better than the floods last season which delayed spawning so that many fish were taken from nests after the middle of June. The low, clear water at this time will present angling problems usually not faced until later in the season. If you are fishing a small stream, approach the pools with a light tread. Vibrations of heavy footfalls on the bank will scare the good fish from his shallow water lair into the deep pools and it will take him a while to forget you. Leaders Are Recommended Likewise a tackle box carelessly dropped to the bottom of a boat can not fail to be heard by every fish within ten yards, and while it may make little difference in the capture of the smaller specimens, remember that the big one gets that way (in heavily fished waters, at least) by being the smartest of the crop, and he’s not to be taken by bungling methods. Twenty years ago only trout fishermen used leaders. Now even the cane pole angler after blue gills knows the advantage of a few feet of the translucent gut. The combination of clear and well-fished water that you will see tomorrow Will call for every legitimate advantage that you can muster. No less an authority than Ray Bergman in an article on “Surface Fly Fishing for Bass” in a current sporting magazine, tells of a large bass that was enticed from his hole under a stump only after the floating lure was affixed to a nine-foot leader. Capsule report on the fishing editor’s trouting trip to Michigan last week. First the alibi. Streams (Pere Marquette, Baldwin, Little South, Middle Branch and Weldon) very low and clear. Few flies on the water. Not a single honest rise in the whole week, even at dusk. Unorthodox Method Used In spite of all this the three of us had a great time, caught enough trout to eat and learned lots. Largest fish taken was fifteen inches. The poor, deluded brownie was snared from his hole under the bank by a most unorthodox method. Caught leaping at large black alder flies, he was fooled by a huge and ragged bass bug dangled a few inches above the water by a deceptive angler who violated all fly casting rules and crawled out on the bank to do the dangling. We learned the value of long, fine leaders on those clear Michigan streams. More details later. A few lines on the bag limits and legal lengths might be appropriate at this time. Black Bass (large and small mouth—Limit six of each or six in the aggregate; length, eleven inches. Silver Bass—Limit six, or six in the aggregate of black and silver bass combined; length, ten inches. Blue Gill Limit Set Blue Gills, Rock Bass, Goggle-eye or Red-eye, Red-Eared Sunfish— Limit twenty-five of each, or the aggregate of all combined; length, five inches. Limit twenty-five, or twenty-five in the aggregate of crappies, blue gills, rock bass, goggleeye or red-eye and red-eared sunfish combined; length, six inches. Yellow or Ring Perch—No bag or length limit. Pike-Perch (wall-eyed pike or jack salmon)—Limit six; length, fifteen inches. Pike or Pickerel—Length, fifteen inches; no bag limit. Trout (all varieties) Length, seven inches; limit, twenty. You owe it to your own chances

Tanned and hpppy as they do a little wading and fishing in White river below the Emrichsville bridge, these three boys make pleasant use of their summer vacation. Left to right they are Norman Lines, 915 North Alabama street; Bud Mayfield, 212 East Tenth street, and Cleat Helms, 811 North East street. Young Helms triumphantly waves the fishing pole with a “wee” sunfish on it.
for good fishing to observe these limits. Prizes Are Offered Deep in the heart of every fisherman there lurks the hope that some day he may be lucky enough to snag into a prize big enough to: enter in one of the fishing contests conducted each year by sporting magazines and local sporting goods companies. Part of the thrill of the game is the fact that the big one may be anywhere and may be hooked by anybody. Did you know, for instance, that the world record wall eye, weighing seventeen pounds, was taken from White river in 1919, and it was not until last year that a larger one was eitfered in the Field and Stream contest? You may not do well enough to win a Field and Stream prize, but the Hoffman Sporting Goods Company, with stores on East Washing- j ton street and Massachusetts avenue, announce a contest of interest to every Indiana angler. The competition opens tomorrow and will end Oct. 31. It is open to every man, woman and child in the state with the exception of those connected with the manufacture or sale of fishing tackle, and employes of the company. . Even the bent pin fisherman has a chance for valuable merchandise as the classes include the red eye, crappie, blue gill, channel catfish and sunfish as well as large and small-mouth and silver bass. The prizes are: Small-Mouth Bass —First, Pfleuger supreme reel; second, fly rod; third, casting reel. Large-Mouth Bass—First, Heddon fly rod; second, Bronson casting reel; third, fly rod. There’s just one prize in the .following classes: Silver Bass—Shakespeare casting reel. Rock Bass or Red Eye—Special rod and reel outfit. Crappie—Shakespeare reel. Channel Catfish —Steel rod. Blue Gill —Special fine casting line. Sunfish —Shakespeare reel. Bring your big ones to either of the Hoffman stores for weighing, and if possible get proof that it was caught in Indiana waters. In a previous contest, a very mediocre panfish won a prizq, so take a chance. This column will have warden’s reports on the water condition and how the fish are biting each Friday from now on, but for the brethren who can get away on Thursday evening or early Friday, the Em-Roe Sporting Goods Company offers a chart showing the state of the principal lakes and rivers. It will be ready each Thursday noon. To the Wendling Bait Company goes the credit for accumulating the weekly data.

DOCTORS LEARN I OF WHOOPING COUGHVACCINE California Physician Tells Parley of Successful Experiments. By United Prc** CLEVELAND, June 15.—Whooping cough, a mother’s greatest fear for her school-entering child, can be prevented almost entirely by vaccinnation —as typhoid and scarlet fever —the American Medical Association was told today at its final, session. “Routine vaccination of kindergarten children would remove the danger of epidemics in schools,” Dr. J. M. Frawley, Fresno, Cal., said before the podiatrics section. Dr. Frawley vaccinated 345 pri-, mary and 505 kindergarten children and compared the results with 174 cases of whooping cough seen in non-vaccinated cases. Those not vaccinated had spasms of whooping and vomiting for two to four weeks, while practically none of the vaccinated children showed these symptoms, the physi- : cian said. > Officers elected today included Dr. Roger I. Lee, Boston, to the trustees board, replacing Dr. D. Chester Brown, Danbury, Conn., whose term was expiring.
