No specific report from Freeman and Shafer lakes, but the word is that they are in great shape. Prize Winner Is Bass Opening day news gets better as the week progresses. The lakes still hold the edge over the streams in quantity, but a Blue river bass, a large mouth, takes the prize for heft. Weight of the big boy was five and one-half pounds. A Mr. Becker was the lucky angler and a Wendling dual spinner the luring influence. Channel cats are stepping up into the game fish class. We’ve heard of several cases lately where they have beat a bass to the lure. A four and one-half pounder mistook William Hurrle’s Wendling spinner for something good to eat last week-end at Shafer lake. Limit catches of bass for two days added to the bag. Webb Wright, Clarence Mahoney and Jack Wendling relieved Barbee lake of the limit of bass each day for three days at the opening. Ii you can’t guess the lures they used I won’t tell you. Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Heinrichs bagged the blue gills at the Big Fou

BY WALTER D. HICKMAN PROBABLY no writer today knows modem university and college life from the inside as well, as does John Erskine. “Bachelor of Arts,” his new novel just published by the Bobbs-Merrill, give Mr. Erskine the right to be considered the dean of college information. Some weeks ago I reviewed “In Freshman Year,” in which a firstyear man was supposed to tell his experiences at Wabash college in Crawfordsville. The author of that book permitted small college life to be reflected through the eyes of a youngster. Mr. Erskine in “Bachelor of Arts” uses Columbia university in New York city as his locale. The author not only looks down from a dizzy height as his characters study at Columbia and become part of a very small niche in the life of that city, but he actually places them under a microscope. The author’s big accomplishment ing plainly and peasantly, fails to is that his chief character, Alec, is no wonder student but a highly modern youth who would have taken on a mistress while at school if the girl would have consented. Under the Erskine miscroscope, many a professor is stripped of his glory and his financial proverty stands exposed. Yet under the artistry of Mr. Erskine the professors become so real and so human with all their learning that they step out of the printed page and start walking around the reader. * ,u u n \ LEC grows, declines and then grows, but never becomes an outstanding student. He becomes an individual in the end and about of the same mold as his companions. Many of Alec’s experiences are bitter. His love for Mimi is a vivid study of a headstrong youth who wants to marry a girl with only $4.21 in his pocket and four years to go to Columbia. Ahd yet with this longing for companionship always present in Alec, this lad is a part of many varied sides of university life. He has experiences in football because he wants to get back to school early in his sophomore year so as to be near Mimi, who was clerking her way through school by working at a restaurant-drug store. He nearly flunks and is about to be thrown out of school when something happens in his mental makeup. Different types of students and professors demand his attention. It is this handling of the natural growth in interest and attainment on the part of Alec which makes “Bachelor of Arts” one of the finest things Mr. Erskine has written. I am not forgetting his brilliant and flippant “The Private Life of Helen of Troy.” In his last book you have real characters, real situations, and nothing overdrawn. You are going to be tremendously interested in Alec, Mimi, the Hamilton, the Jewish lad and his splendid family, the Dean, the President of the school (there is lot of sa.tire turned loose on him indirectly) and many other characters. Here is one of the best sellers of the year and if you want to be able to discuss this best seller with your friends, you had tetter get a copy of “Bachelor of Arts” at once. It sells for $2.50.

Catalpa worms did the trick. The Capital City Gun Club, recently organized sportsmen’s group, announces gratifying progress in the last two months. One skeet field is completed at their place southeast of Belmont and Raymond streets and another is planned. There also wiil be a rifle and pistol range. A fifteen-acre lake, stocked seven years agq with all kinds of game fish, adds to the club’s attractions. Arrangements have been made to set aside 2,000 acres of land north of the city sewage disposal plant as a state game preserve, and the area will be stocked with quail and pheasant. Officers are Dr. L. T. Need; president; Ray Smith, vice-president, and Merrill Christie, treasurer. There are fifty-eight members already andy there is room for more “sportsmen, not sports.” The public is invited to drop by any Sunday, morning or afternoon, to try the skeet field, but the lake is reserved for members.
