LETS CO 'Ft a/ ' CEORCE FISHING H DENNY .J

big fish news right now is A the fact that the Wabash river is clearing fast and should be in shape for the week-end. In fact several of the boys can't wait and are leaving today and tomorrow. We’ve heard it again and again from fishermen who know that the Wabash Has more and bigger bass than any comparable body of water in the state. And there’s always the chance of hooking into a jacksalmon. nun SCATTERED reports from last Sunday indicate varying tastes among the bass tribe. Patrolman George Lowe is high man as far as this department has heard with a five pound large mouth to his credit. A seven and one-half inch split mouth chub was the lure and the place was a gravel pit southwest of the city. George is a great believer in large minnows. Big fish want a mouthful, he believes. Hook them through the tail instead of the lips if the bass are skinning them without taking firmly, he says. On the other hand Bill Garstang and Ed Higgins each took a nice pair on the same day on shiners. Bill was fishing on White river below Noblesville and Ed picked a small lake near town. Ed had only three shiners in his minnow bucket and had three runs on them, landing the two. The fickle bass refused to look at any other variety of lure. The fishing editor had three runs on shiners and miss them all. Charley Ridlen and Emil Deluse slipped down to Raccoon, where Charley caught five, all large mouths, on Jack's dual spinner and Emil took three small mouths on minnows. nan DETECTIVE CHIEF FRED SIMON never will forget a jaunt that he took last week. With Joe Waite. Lee Emmelman, Ernest Tapscott and Earl Baker he journeyed to an angler’s promised land, a private lake in the southern part of the state. Stocked with many thousands of bass and panfish, the clear water offered royal sport. Every member

coach Pitcher worked the raw material into shape to aid him. Each game the Cardinals are improving and the suburban players have been able to get a couple of games into the win column in addition to keeping defeats to a close margin. Today they met a test in the local Washington high school team in a game played on the west side field at 2:30.

of the party that tried at all got plenty of fish. The chief brought home six bass between two and three and one-half pounds, and he could have taken many more. Joe Waite had a world of fun with a fly rod, also landing the limit. About twenty bass and ninety crappies was the total haul. a tt st FASHION Note—A leading French designer of ladies’ hats is decorating her product with gaudy imitations of trout and bass flies. Possibly on. the theory that men are poor fish. a a a IpOR the benefit of puzzled waterfowl hunters, the bureau of biological survey, United States department of agriculture, issues the following statement in regard to bag limits of the various species: “The federal bag limit on wild ducks is twelve, but eider ducks, canvasbacks, redheads, greater scaups, lesser scaups, ringnecks, blue-winged teal, green-winged teal, cinnamon teal, shovelers, and gadwalls included in the twelve may not total more than five. These five may all be of one species, or they may represent different species of the restricted class—but in no case may the total number of ducks belonging to these eleven species exceed five. The number of ducks representing other species that may be hunted is limited only by the provision that the total bag of all ducks taken may not exceed twelve. “Thus, the duck hunter may take a dozen mallards, or he may take a dozen pintails—or six mallards and five pintails, or eight mallards and four pintails, or any combination of these birds that does not total more than twelve. But if he takes the maximum and includes in his dozen the species for which the limit is further restricted he will have bags like the following: Seven mallards plus five canvasbacks; or four mallards and three pintails plus one eider duck, one canvasback, one redhead, one scaup and one ringneck; or two pintails and two mallards .plus two convasbacks. two redheads and one ringneck. In no case may he take more than twelve ducks in one day. “Shooting of wood ducks, ruddy ducks or buffleheads is prohibited."

‘Old Master’ Stagg Brings Up Strong Squad at Pacific Ex-Maroon Coach Gives Coast Powers Scare. BY RONALD WAGONER United Press Staff Correspondent SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 17.—Amos Alonzo Stagg, banished from the Big Ten because the University of Chicago thought he was too old to coach football, today had proved Chicago was wrong and had chastised tw’o “young sprout” coaches w’ho happened to get in the way of Mr. Stagg and his amazing football team at the College of Pacific. College of Pacific, 0; Southern California, 6. College of Pacific, 6; University of California. 7. \ Stagg No “Setup” Those records already have been written in the gridiron book for 1934 to attest the prowess of Amos Alonzo Stagg, who thinks life still is pretty sweet after the age of 70. The fact that Pacific, on eaph occasion, was supposed to be a “setup” adds to Stagg's prestige. Two weeks ago Stagg’s Bengals almost slapped down the once mighty Trojans, coached by Howard Jones. Howard was in swaddling clothes when Stagg captained Yale, where Jones later played. Astounded fans in Los Angeles admitted Pacific would have tied or beaten the Trojans except for a few breaks. Still Has Pep Last Saturday “Navy Bill” Ingram, who was of water boy age when Coach Stagg was king of the Midway at Chicago, almost was victimized. Amos Alonzo brought forty country kids to Berkeley. When the Pacific team trotted from the dressing room into the huge bowl, Stagg was running at the head. He sprinted here and there on the field, passing footballs and directing a warmup. Pretty good, the fans thought, for an alleged old man. Pacific received the kickoff and Bob Wicker, a substitute not listed on the program, started to pass. Later Stagg explained he intended to surprise California with the unknown Wicker. He did exactly that all afternoon. California players became so dizzy looking at Wicker’s passes that they forgot he could run. So Wicker crossed them up and scampered seventy yards for a touchdown. But a teammate couldn’t kick the goal and California managed to “convert” when the heavy Bears pushed over the goal line.

Ring Scoring System Stays on Old Basis N. Y. Commission Fails to Alter Rules: Longer Bouts Ordered. fly Timet Special NEW YORK. Oct. 17.—Although deciding that all heavyweight challengers must fight fifteen rounds in elimination contests, the New Yo*k state athletic commission failed at its highly-advertised meeting yesterday to act on a proposal that condition of fighters at close of bouts be made to count toward awarding of decisions. The proposal was presented by Commissioner Bill Brown, who previously had declared the present round-by-round system of scoring fights is “unfair, impractical and inaccurate.” The recent Art Lasky-Steve Hamas fight, in which Hamas was practically ojit on his feet at the close of the last round, but won on basis of his early work and a backhand blow struck by Lasky, had been cited as an example of existing | unfairness in awarding decisions. “We are telling Hamas now. and i all the rest of the challengers,” said Brigadier-General John J. Phelan, : chairman of the commission, "that rounds is not enough to prove ihe right to a title match. We are | also warning Hamas that he can t I rest on this kind of a laurel and ex- ' pect us to approve of a match with j champion Max Baer in the spring I if he does nothing more satisfactory in the meantime.” The commission expressed official opinion that Steve Hamas was not to be regarded as the logical contender for a title bout. It was suggested that Hamas meet Primo Carnera or Max Schmeling, each a former champion, or Art Lasky, the slugger over whom Hamas recently scored the debated decision. The commission acknowledged receipt of a challenge from former lightweight champion Tony Canzoneri to meet Barney Ross, present holder, anywhere, any time.
