Best Report From Morgan County; * Geist and Patton Lakes Also Reported Good

Some improvement in stream fishing was reported this week from various parts of the state, but the best prospects for this weekend are in lakes and gravel pits. Marion and surrounding counties all list milky to muddy streams with fishing poor to fair. The best report from a neighboring county came from Morgan where the fishing has been good in small streams and especially good a skilled fly fisherman to tempt

Cleveland Has a Long Road Left to Pennant |
By MILTON RICHMAN, United Press Sports Writer : NEW YORK, July 16—Bill Veeck, the Cleveland Indians’ enterprising president, realizes better than anyone else that his club still has a long, rough haul before it can capture the American! League pennant despite a 23; game lead. { Veeck knows that the ‘Yankees, Athletics, Red Sox and even! the Tigers can not be counted out as yet. To protect his team’s slender margin, Cleveland — |

Fishing at Geist Lake also improved during the past seven days with catches made up principally of bluegills and crappies.
Bass Not Only Fish
While bass, especially the large and smallmouth species, are the big game for which nearly every Hoosier angler fishes, you don’t see these anglers backing away when the bluegills or crappies are hitting. Indiana lakes and streams hold plenty of sport for the bass fisherman and plenty of thrills Tor the angler who finds the panfish hitting. There are anglers who claim that a plate of freshly | caught bluegills and crappies is| better eating than bass. Its an- | other of those cases where “you pays your money and takes your choice.”
‘Prince of Panfish’
This is the title given the bluegills by L. 8. Caine who edits Fish Flashes for the James Heddon's Sons and classes the bluegills as the unanimous choice for it fighting and eating qualities. In coloration the bluegills vary according to water conditions but the back is usually dark, olive green with a purplish - luster. Greenish, chain-like bars run girthwise. The cheeks are an
iridescent greenish-blue, the belly frequently a red-copper color and the fins deep green with a velvety black cover op. the glis.

J., for a copy of “Knots and How to Tie Them” which lists more knots than your Boy Scout manual and contains other tips on the use of nylon for fishing. The Remington Arms Co., Inc., Trade Sales Promotion Division, Bridgeport, 2, Conn., has a booklet, “Things About Shotguns” which contains some interesting data for the sportsman looking forward to the hunting season. It was prepared especially for the hardware and sporting goods salesman but is available to all requesting it.
Check ‘Damage Law’ Conservation United leaders are investigating the Ohio laws which permit the conservation department there to bring suit for damages against firms responsible for polluting public waters and killing fish. The study will probably lead to a proposal by the organization for such a provision in the Indiana law. ; The Ohio law was discussed at a meeting of the Stream Pollution Board earlier this year as a means of strengthening the campaign against stream pollution in Indiana. Question was raised as to whether present Indiana laws provide for such action.
Wardens Go to College
A tip for the State Conservation Advisory Committee which plans slation to take conservation officers out of politics and put them under a merit system, comes from Texas where a third group of warden candidates has completed a semester of training at Texas A. & M. College.: At the college the wardens re-
Bluegills school readily, strike vigorously and feed often—an ideal combination for the angler. They apparently eat anything digestible, small minnows, worms, grasshoppers, crickets, most insects, small craws, and any candy, popcorn, or leftovers from the picnic. However it may require
ceive training in wildlife conservation and management, fishery management, natural history, pollution problems, public relations, public speaking, fish gnd game laws and their enforcement. Approximately 50 ex-servicemen have been trained and placed on the job since the Texas program was started two years ago.

High Seas Keep Hopes Low For Olympic Ship Workouts
By LEO H. PETERSEN, United Press Sports Editor ABOARD THE 8. 8. AMERICA EN ROUTE TO ENGLAND, July 16—Chafing from inactivity, aboard hoped to get started on a regular shipboard training program
the 260 U. 8. Olympic athletes
So far, high winds and choppy seas have kept the muscle men and women of the team from doing anything but limbering up
exercises. But officials were hopeful for smoother weather today as the America moved along the Atlantic sealanes still five days from Southampton.
The team received its official Olympic uniforms yesterday, each athlete getting his or hers in attractive fitted traveling cases made of heavy cardboard. Each member received two sets, one for regular wear and one for parades. bring only two handbags of luggage of their own on the trip. Each of the uniforms was emblazoned with the U. 8. Olympic emblem, with its red, white and blue and five-ringed Olympic symbol. About the only teams not intent on getting in some practice while still on ship are the basketball squad and the track and field squad. The fencing and yachting squads were aboard the Queen Elizabeth, one day behind the America, and the men’s swimming and water polo squads were scheduled to leave New York by plane tonight.

But whether Paige succeeds or not is immaterial. It only serves to prove how desperate Veeck must be when first he pays $90,000 for a mediocre pitcher and! then invades the semi-ypro ranks for another hurler who has long since passed his prime. { Throughout the American League, they're saying that the Indians do not have the necessary equipment to win, that they'll fold eventually, and that Bob Lemon, who has won 13 gamas, can't be expected to shoulder the load by himself. Fellers Fallure The failure of Bob Feller, of course, has made Cleveland's task ever so much more difficult. No matter how poorly the Indians fared in past years, Feller generally could be depended upon to salvage 20 games. Unless he shows a sudden reversal of form, it is doubtful whether the Van Meter, Iowa, farmboy will collect a score of victories this season.
