Best of the Week
NEATEST BIT of fishing around these parts lately gives credit to H. E. Gray. He was out bluegilling the other day, using a two-pound gut leader and a No. 10 hook. On this tackle he man. aged to land a five-and-three-quarter-pound big-mouth, which was 22% inches long and had a 14% -inch girth. When the bass broke water for the first time, Gray's partner, 8S. O. Byrum, made a mad dash for the car to get his landing net, but by the time he'd unlocked the car, got the net and returned the fish was landed. Incidentally, the two got their limit in bluegills the same day and broke seven leaders doing it. For reasons that we can certainly appreciate, where the bass was caught is being kept secret. Cant say that we blame them, but remembering some of the big lunkers that Claude Allison has netted hereabouts our guess is that it was in a pit. What pit remains as the $64 question and we wouldn't put it past ourselves to get up in the middle of the night and trail those two for its a cinch theyll be fishing the same spot for a
And in times like these anything’s fair in politics and fishing.
Carp Hors d’Oeuvre
1 DON'T KNOW many of you who want to deliberately go out and catch carp, but if you do the bait problem is pretty simple. Just get some of the largest lima beans out of your garden and soak them overnight. Two on a hook is sufficient and the carp apparently think they're fine eating. Personally we prefer filet mignon mith mushrooms, but then nobody wants to catch us so that's neither here nor there.
Heavyweights Will Feature
Card at Arena
A six-round clash between heavyweights is expected to highlight boxing action at Sports Arena tonight when the Hercules Athletic club will stage the seventh “Club Night” pro mitt bill of the summer season. Another six, two fives and two fours will make up the six-tilt bill. The complete program follows: 8ix Rounds—Heavyweights: Colion Chaney, 190, Indianapolis, vs. Ed Young, 185, Camp Atterbury.
Six Rounds—Middleweights: Arn-
.jold Deer, Indianapolis, vs. Jim

Five Rounds — Welterweights: James Sherron, Indiaanpolis, vs. Tiger Kiggins, Indianapolis. Five Rounds—Lightweights: Nate Barr, Camp Atterbury, vs. Joe Poindexter, Indianapolis, Four Rounds—Welterweights: Billy Hayes, Indianapolis, vs. Joe Dahng Camp: Atterbury. Four Rounds — Welterweights:Marshall Allison, Shelbyville, Ind. vs. Kid Watson, Evansville, Ind. Young and Dahm are newcomers to the arena. The opening scrap
will start at 8:30 o'clock.
Here's how to make the Marimba Collins like an expert. Juice of one lemon, 1 teaspoon fine sugar, 2 ozs, of Marimba Rum, dash of bitters. Shake with ice and pour into a tall glass. Fill with carbonated water (or with a cola drink for 8 Cuba Libre)

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES Browns Recall 11940 Race as
Tigers Climb
NEW YORK, Aug. 17 (U.P) —If memories of the 1940 pennant race are stirring in the heads of the Detroit Tigers today, practically no
fone should be surprised, but the
front-running St. Louis Browns may be a little alarmed. For those who recall that lightning dash to the American league pennant in the final six weeks of the season, the’ present winning pace of the Detroit entry provides a “tailor-made” pattern for something similar this year. At this juncture in 1040, the Tigers were in second place, being challenged by the third-place New York Yankees and there was little doubt among baseball minds that the Cleveland Indians would breeze in, Then the Tigers applied the preamble to their. “photo finish.” With a brilliant stretch of winning baseball, they moved into first place on Sept. 9, although they weren't able to hold it for more than a day. Moreover,” they had been as low as third on Sept. 6. Finally they took over first place again on Sept. 19 and held it to the finish, winning by a two-game margin. ’ _ The Browns may be comforted by the knowledge that their margin at present is greater than Cleveland enjoyed over the Tigers in 1940 at this time, but it may not reassure them to know that Detroit. was a full five and a half games behihd as late as Aug. 22.
Metheny Wins for Yanks
