GEORGE FISHING H DENNY^gglf

TACKLE stores report a steady increase in sale of fly rods. It has taken a long time for the rank and file to become convinced, but the day seems to be upon us. If you haven't had a nice bass on the end of a long rod you don’t know the finest thrill in fishing. Casting has its points; there's nothing quite like the tense moments when a bass is running with your minnow; spatting a pork chunk into the weed beds has its place, but the boys who have been there will tell you that even if they can’t always match the short rod angler for number and weight they prefer the longer, sportier scrap that a fly rod provides. No matter how active a twopounder is, he can’t take much line from your casting reel and he won't last more than a minute or two against the strain of the short rod. Eut the same fish on the long bamboo will give you heart failure a dozen times, will make you yield line at least once or twice and will still be tugging away just out of reach of your anxious net after several mighty long minutes. a a a THE greatest trouble in assembling a balanced fly rod outfit seems to be the line. Any number of fishermen with fine rods are flailing away with a line that’s too light, or more rarely, too heavy, and wondering why they can’t get easy distance without a tired wrist. With all respect to our many experienced and conscientious tackle salesmen, there are very few men who can choose the perfect line for a rod without taking it out and trying it.

a room large enough for a fortyfoot cast and several reels equipped with standard sizes of fly lines. When the customer has chosen his lod h° tries the various lines until he has the one that best brings out the action of the rod. Then the clerk sells him the same line, new, out of stock. For a long time the finest lines came from England and the price was steep. In the last two years American manufacturers have solved the secret and now as good a line as any crank would want can be bought for a few dollars. Most tapered lines have a fault that must be corrected before they give the best results. The taper is usually too long. When you consider that the weight of the line is the force that carries out the fly, you’ll see that there is no need for a 12 to 15-foot light line that does little of this important work. Most of your fishing will be within 30 feet of the end of the rod and with a six-foot leader and 12 feet of light taper there is little real weight of line to deliver the lure. Try cutting off some of the light end, a few feet at a time, until you have it right. Not too much. You can't put it back on. a a m A. B. Lagle Joined the five-pound-er club on Sunday.

*-*-Doivn the Alleys-*-* BY BERNARD HARMON

At the Uptown Alleys, Ted Arnold whacked out games of 234, 244 and 215 and, with the resultant 693 total, topped all individual efforts of the ten-pin pastimers who were in action in the various leagues of the city last night. At the St. Philip Alleys, big totals again prevailed, Chuck Markey and Butch Zix featuring with series of 689 and 677 that were good for citywide runner-up and show positions, while the Wooden Shoe Beer, famed “kid team” of the East Side, carried off the team honors of the evening on a 3015 total. Arnold’s series came during the weekly session of the Community League and boosted his Ready Mixed Concrete teanji to a shutout victory over the Indiana Asphalt Cos.

The Tire team featured a 1010 game during its series. The only other honor count of the evening came from Fegen, who aided his C. H. Frank team in its 2-to-l win over the Heinz 57 Varieties with a 606.

Games of 1000, 1008 and 1007 were rolled by the Beer team. John Blue’s 627 was the best individual total of the losers. Zix amassed his big total on games of 204, 236 and 237, while performing with the McKinney Treasurers, who were unopposed in their series. The Casady Fuels had John Murphy at 650 and Lou Fahrbach at 622 in their triple win over the Kirschner Auto Service. The winners, aided by a 1042 finish totaled 2983 in t 'r three games. The s*. o schedule of the loop made it possible for John Kiesel to bowl with two teams, and during his appearance with the Mic-Lis McCahill aggregation he rapped out a 630, leading the team to a two-time victory over the opposing Falls City Hi-Brus, who had Charlie Baker with 639 as their outstanding individual.

Jack Dempsey Pummelled by Vengeful Mat Loser

Former Heavy King Is Tossed Out of Ring During Bitter Melee With Boston Husky. By United Brest BOSTON, May I.—Jack Dempsey was floored and pummelled by a wrestler iast night. The spectacle occurred at a wrestling show and the wrestler was Ted Germaine of South Boston, not a particularly good one. Dempsey, refereeing a battle royal in which Germaine was a participant. disqualified him for foul tactics. Nursing a grudge from a pre-

vious encounter with the former heavyweight boxing champion, Germaine app!i< 1 a crotch and body hold, and before 4000 amazed spectators, crashed Dempsey to the mat. Following up his coup, Germaine shunted Dempsey out of the ring onto press tables and followed out to maul him on the tables and the floor around the ring. Still mauling, the two worked their way back into the ring where Dempsey was tripped and again floored. Here, promoters, police, ushers and seconds intervened, but

not before the pair had exchanged several blows. Germaine later declared that he demonstrated that a wrestler can whip a fighter any time, and that he showed Dempsey that “his trade of refereeing mat bouts and punching wrestlers is about played out. If I encounter him again, I will toss him on his nose.” “I will come out here again for nothing if Germaine will be in the ring as one of the contestants,” was Dempsey’s reaction.
