FISHING? THERE ftlfi'T HOSICH THING

I'Expert Declares It Has

Gone From Punk to Punker.

BEIT "EM By 5S PIS

Larry St. John, the fishinar expert of the Chicago Tribune, says of the angling situation hereabouts: "Near-by lake fishing has gone from punk to punker. AVe sure don't like this crap-; hanging stuff ourselves, but "facts

f Is facts.' We have had reports from a

couple of dozen old timers who have fished the Illinois lakes for many moons and they say that they have never seen poorer fishing. YVe must take mfort in the knowledge that periods of consistently r-oor fishing is followed by days when the fish just about break their backs trying to get at your bait. If these days don't comb soon we will be as disappointed as you are. We feel safe in predicting that we will have much better near-by fishing within the next two weeks if we don't we are going to leave the rrophesying business flat. "We have heard nothing encouraging from the lakes of northern Indiana or

southern Wisconsin, but fishing is said to be fairly good in the Michigan lakes. "Fishing has been nothing extra in northern Wisconsin and Minnesota, but the folks up there are expecting the muskles to get busy any day now. The sraill mouth bass fishing Is still good on the upper Mississippi."

Enlist In The Woman's Arm? By Ccnsrvine Foods.

BT H. C. HAMILTON (United Press Staff Correspond at) NEW YORK, O. t. 4. ild Kill Donovan's job as manager of the Yankees, Is said to be slipping fast away from bim. Also. Miller Huggms, brainy little leader of the St. Louis Cardinn.ls, is said to have been considered in his place. No semblance of truth cen be attached to the rumors, save f o - the indefinite statement accredited to Huggin s. saying he lias received 'some kind" of an offer to take ch.irge of the New York club. Col. J&eob Eupperl has stated once that he will not dismiss Donovan, but since that time the Yankees have been going from bad to worse. He may change his mind. The owners of the Cardinals could hardly do anything worse than to allow Huggins to slip away from lendership of the Cardinals. The little bader Is making noises like a pennant winner, and if given time may put some basebf.il prestige into St. Louis that will make of that city the sane good old baseball town that other cities have been made by pennant winners. If Col. Kuppert wants Huggins he probably would bid high, and the money might lock pretty fine, but the money would never salve the feelings of those wounded St. Louisans if they wers to see their baseball hope sliding out the back door in the person of Miller Huggins. Sine Mrs. Helen Huthway Britton chucked tin the job of trying to run a baseball club. Huggins has b"en given a chanre to do somcibiiig with the Cardinals, and lie certainly has succeeded. In St. Louis today there is a team that will enter Into the pennant prognostications this winter. He has a baseball c'a:b that has done it.-elf proud. It is finishing in a higher niche than has been St Louis custom. His men are young, his pitchers are demons for hard, excellent work. They've got to be counted in the race next year. So a transfer of Huggins to Nw York to lead the American league r'ub here would be a bad dose for St. Louis, despite the fact that It would undoubtedly be a good move for the Yankees. If Donovan is to leave it looks like a good move for the Cardinals to Insist that the new manager come, from some o'.hcr place.

All of the "personal friends" in Hammond of Charles Comiskoy are steeped in gloom these melancholy days. They stand around in glum dumb protest against their mutual fate. The most sought after, coveted, desired, wlshed-for treasure in all this world. e- far as they are concerned, is a grand stand seat to the Chicago games of th-i coming world's series. And it is also the most scarce. Dr. II. E. Sharrer has five box seats and Ed Mee Is said to have as many and that ends it so far as Hammond fans are concerned. One of the bluest of the blue is James Clabby Sr.. and If any one has a protest coming it is he. "rap" was present at every at home game the Sox played this summer, paying his good coin for the privilege. Yet he was turned down and his money sent back. This would indicate that the treasurer at the Sox park is not favoring the steady patrons first as he should. If cither one of the candidates for mayor could produce a hundred tickets for the world's series It would mean bis election hands clown. It's Like Till: The world s series, you see. is a number of gamed to be played this year by the Giants of New Tork and the White Sox of Chicago to decide which team is the superior at a game commonly called baseball. There are two leagues, the National and the American, and the Giants have won the most games of any team In the former and the White Sox in the latter. The two teams will play until one has won four games. The first two games will be played in Chicago, the second In New York and so on until the thing" is decided. Now the difference, between a. game of ball in the big leagues during July snd August when it is warm and pleasant and during October when it is cold and unpleasant in a grandstand is from $5 to J 1 5 a seat. The rest of it is all in the head. This Information Is given for the benefit of those who read The

Literal" Digest instead of the sport

page and wear bow ties and spats. It is going to be rather severe on the old Sox fans of Hammond who have had their money returned and will not be able lo see even a game of the series. At every game this summer at the White Sox park there have been from ten to thirty Hammond fans. Now they find themselves on the outside with no look-in while even Cub fans are being taken care of. It may be no Intentional fault of the treasurer at the Sox Park but the system is all wrong. Had Comiskey sent a batch of twenty-five tickets to Hammond and placed them on sale, it wouldn't have been so bad. The fans would all have had a chance st them and even if four or five lost their lives in the jam and the police riot squad and fire depnrtrrynt were called out, no one would kick. Dr. Sharrer obtained bis tickets stealth, it is rumored. But he

had to make good as his Insurance)

agents sold thousands of dollars of policies on the strength of bis promise to take them to the series.

Gary Sport "Briefs

AVhile no date has been set for the opening of the bowling season at the Y. M. C. A. alleys preparations are beins made by Director Ueorge Pinneo for the opening league games. Although no

! authentic dope has been given out the j league hopes to have at least a dozen ! teams. ! Are you all set for the world's series? If not. it will be useless to try and even i buy a ducet for any of the games. Just I be content and stand In line for Ave or 1 six hour?, then you cen fight for a bleacher seat.

A surprise was sprung in Gary basebell circles this wek w h-n at a meeting j of Dave A- Msck's baseball club George i Simmons, well known and popular tnanj ger, resigned his position in favor of ' W. F. Smith, who will fill the vacancy.

Smith has already started plans for next season and hopes to give the fans some classy baseball. First practice for the Gary Techs was held at the Emerson play grounds Teusday evening under the direction of Jack Gilroy and even though no hard work was dona the squad was a likely looking lot. Another practice will be held this evening. The schedule will be opened in about three weeks. The Gary high school second squad Is down to hard practice for Its gridiron clssh with the Hamrraond high school second squad et Emerson f.eld next Saturday afternoon. Anticipating an early season some of Gary's basketball shooters are warming up to be in shape. Since the advent of cool weather local billiard balls report an increase in business. Preparations are being made by several proprietors for some interesting pool end billiard tournaments this winter. Sporting news of any kind or results of various games or contests will be accepted by addressing Sporting Editor, Gary Times, or phone 17.

NO TICKETS? HERE IS WAY TO SEE SERIES' CONTEST For a lime it looked as though the thousands of fans who wanted to see the world's series games were going to be completely shut out. for the national commission had the play by play service gummed so hard that none but the newspapers were going to get it. Yesterday, however. President Hn Johnson appreciated the fact that nearly 200,000 Chieagoans have been disappointed because they could not get seats at Comiskey Park and lifted the lid. This means that thousands may see the action of the game reproduced on huge mechanical scoreboards at various points throughout Chicago. One of thee boards will be st the Stockyards Pavilion on the South Side and another, at Arcadia Hall, Proadway and Wilson venue, on the North Side.

Here's a Young Sport. A boy, about seven years of ge. presented himself at tb. Hammond recruiting station. "I g-ot a brother in "Trance," he began. "And there Is a boy next door that pets a lot of fun out of seeing- my ma lick me and he's twice as big- as X am. But that ain't what I came np to tell ya about. This fellow next door says he hopes the Kaiser wins the -war. Can't ya put him In fie armyf" The cerg-eant'a reply was negative. H. said he had nothing- to do with the draft. "W.ll, can't ya hut him npl" "You bet, lead me to him." Tb. fellow najct door von't wiah the Kaiser success in the war again. Be was told a few things.
