By Eddie Ash FISH AND GAME MEN TO FEAST a a m A LITTLE HISTORY IS RECALLED

jyf EMBERS of the Marion County Fish and Game Protecti\ o Association will feast at their annual fish fry tonight, the hig pow-wow of the year for the sportsmen of this district. The event will he held at the Riviera Club, Illinois-st and the Canal, and the starting hour is set at 7:30. The first active conservation organization in the state was formed here in 1908 and incorporated in 1914. The organization has grown to about 800 active members and approximately 750 inactive followers. Officers are Dr. B. F. Nieman, president; Charles K. Weisenberger, vice president; Carl White, secretary, and R. B. (Dick) luttle, treasurer. Meetings are held on the first Monday of every month except the three summer months, and a picnic in June rivals the fall fish fry for entertainment and good fellowship. nun ana 'T'HE first croup that launched the organization years ago met with I many difficulties in locating a suitable site for the fish hatchery ponds, and for a time the farm of William Bosson, east of Nora, Ind.. wa . used. Two ponds were stocked with small mouth bass and -onsiderable success wa; achieved, but experience proved a location nearer Indianapolis was necessary in order t,o make the venture profitable. About 1012 arrangements were made v.ith the City Park Board to obtain land at Riverside and the City Administration gave every possible aid to the new fish hatchery. The charter members of the sportsmen's group were true conservationists and realized that nature must be assisted in replenishing the streams if future residents were to enjoy fishing. Among the e were Gustave .1 T. Meyer, the late George N. Mannfeld, under nhose management as superintendent of the fish and game division of the state Conservation Department, brought it to a foremost position in the United States as an exponent of conservation work. a tt tt tt tt OTHER members of the original hard-working group were Emil De luse. Charles Neesom. Ed Phipps, Gus Babich and Col. Richard Liebei The last, named later set in motion and carried out plans that developed the state park system. The fir.it meeting of the Marion County Fish and Game Association was held in the rear of Gus Habich's store, and while few in numbers the old members had fh 0 pioneer spirit and lost no time in tackling the low land offered them for the fish hatchery at Riverside, clearing it and eventually seeing it grow into one of the best in the country. tt tt a tt tt tt OWNER NORMAN A.

‘Stevie’ Signs Contract With Southern Club ’Old Hoss’ Made Birmingham Pilot; Was Free Agent After ’35 Season. The huge form of Old Hoss Riggs Stephenson is to be missed at Perry Stadium next season when the Indians perform. The veteran flychaser was signed yesterday to manage the Birmingham club of the Southern Association. “Stevie” re--ides at Akron, Ala,, and is a former University of Alabama athlete. In other words Riggs obtained

just about what he wanted in the way of employment. He became famous in that territory long before he entered professional baseball and will be greeted with open arms by B ir m in gham fans. S t e p h enson was with Indianapolis twice. The Hoosiers sold him to the Chicago Cubs in 1926 'and he re-

''

Stephenson

mained with the Bruins through 1934. when he wa§ made a free agent. Indianapolis paid the veteran a bonus to sign last spring and he batted .343. Riggs slowed up in the field, however, and his throwing arm was weak. As part of the Indianapolis agreement, “Stevie” was to become a free agent again at the close of the 1935 season. And the Birmingham Barons stepped in and signed him. Stephenson’s big league career was spent with Cleveland and the Cubs, and his minor league days with Kansas City and Indianapolis. He saw little service with Kansas City, however. He attracts instant popularity with fans and is a hard worker. He will be playing pilot at Birmingham. More Than 50,000 Promised at N. D.

‘Spot’ Kicking Tops Hoosier Practice Card Crimson Hones to Keep Ball Away From Purdue’s Speedy Returners. Time. Special BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Nov. 19. Develpoment of an offense to penetrate Purdue’s strong defense was the goal of Bo McMillin and other Indiana coaches as they began preparation for the annual state rivalry game between the two Big Ten schools here Saturday. Despite the threat of inclement weather, there are indications Memorial Stadium will be packed when the Old Oaken Bucket clash gets under way. The battle, which amounts to “the Football Civil War of Hoosierland,” with Purdue from the north and Indiana from the south, finds supporters of both elevens in the opposite territory and arguments are beginning tc wax hot over the outcome. Back of the line. Indiana has Wendell Walker. Corby Davis, Roy Eads, Vernon Huffman, all vets of last year, together with others of experience and several promising sophomores, one of whom is Harry Cherry of Washington High of Indianapolis. Coarh McMillin has just begun to use Cherry, and many bplieve he might be t,hp one to break into the headlines for the Crimson in this game. McMillin spent considerable time with his punters working on spot kicking. The "spot" to kick this week is where McGammon and other Boilermaker safety men get a running start, he told them. The ends came in for a round of instruction on “getting down” on kicks. Preparing From Scratch Bn Timm Special LAFAYETTE. Ind., Nov. 19.—1n quest, of the Old Oaken Bucket, cherished trophy of football supremacy between Hoosierdom’s Big Ten institutions, Purdue’s football squad will journey to Bloomington next Saturday for the thirty-eighth renewal of the traditional series with Indiana. All records of the past season will be tossed into the discard, as the Boilermakers launch preparation for what promises to be one of the greatest struggles in a long and thrill-studded series, for as far as the two rivals are concerned, the Purdue-Indiana game in itself comprises a “season.” The unexpected is always expected when the two Hoosier gridiron foes tangle, and as far as the Boilermakers are concerned, they are starting from scratch in their game preparations, for the Crimson has the habit in recent years of saving a season of football for the Purdue game, and twice in the last ten years has returned victorious with upset victories. Unusual interest has been shown here in the game, and Purdue's allotment of reserved seats is already virtually exhausted.

Good pitchers are scarce, even on semi-pro lots, and the Bridgeport, Blues will miss the best pitcher they ever had next summer, but they're not thinking about that. The young men who play baseball at Bridgeport, a small town 10 miles west of Indianapolis, are mourning the loss of a cheerful pal and an ardent team supporter today as arrangements are made for the funeral of Kenneth FYantz. Kenneth was his Christian name, but to his Bridgeport comrades and admirers he was known by a myriad of nicknames, foremost of which was ’ Lefty." followed by Drake." "Coop” and Kemvorthy" among others Lefty was killed in an automobile accident near Bridgeport Sunday. He was riding on the running board, as adventurous youth is wont to do. when another car approached from the opposite direction and sideswiped the machine to which he was clinging. Lefty, at 25. had been the Blues’ No. I pitcher for four years And prior to that, while a youngster, he was the proud guardian of first base. Last season he hurled three shutout victories, and in one of them allowed only two hits "Coop" also , was a timely hitter. He won several games for the Blues last year bv his ability to “smack ’em" in the pinch. Net Clinic Reveals Foul Circle Rule Still Troublesome - . Official Is Sole Judge of 3-Second Limit.
