The Anglers Are Coming Back From Wolf Lake With Some Fine Catches These Days.

Old timers will rotriftiibfr that 12 years ago Wolf and Georges lakes were one o? the best fsl.ing and hunting grounds in the state of Indiana. It was fished to death In those days and fishermen went out time after time in the !a3t four or five ears and hae come homo without as much as a strike. Quite a numbir of anglers will he glad to hear that Its different now. the fishermen are gradually awakening to the fact that there are plenty of bass, pickerel. blue gills and perch in Wolf lake, and are catching as many as two and three, bass In an hour's castincr. And the still fishermen are getting strings of thirty and thlrty-flvo in a few hours. Around the No. 4 ico house, in Die channel, they are catching perch and blue pills weighing one-half pound and mor.i on worms and minnows. Pork and frogs are being used by the casters.

WORTHY CAUSE OUGHT TO SUPPORT

(By M. T. KRZXAN ) Over a thousand f.ar.a braved Sunday's torrid wava to watch the fast traveling East Ch'capo team triumph over the Polish Americana of the Inter-City Lagrue by an 8 to 6 score. The Foles got away to a flyln? Ptart. In the first, eingles by Boras and Zurkowskl, coupted with a demonstration of weird pastimin? by the local infield resulted in the scoring of two runs by the opposition. East Chicago failed to tally in Its half. In the second a single off Big Bill Morgan, together with a base on balls and an error by "Babe" Simon brought the r. A. A. C. total to 4. Tha score remained uncharged until East Chicago's half of the fourth. Simon Binjrled and Fto'e Eccond, S hwenke double scoring Simcn.

committee of which yo-,i are chairman will be Interested in knowing just how the funds that, ar-1 belnn raised will be used by the palvation Army. Our organization started work with the Allied troops fourteen days after war declared in 1914. and have Increased its scope until today we are serving over SOn.OOft men every day. Most of our labors are at the very front and consist In serving: hot coffee, douEhnuts and pie to the boys in the flchting: zone. The cooking is d"ria by the Salvation Army lassies in dugouts and make h!t shelters, while behind the lines more elaborate huts are maintained and regular hut work is clone. This Job of ours has appealed to the American soldiers from General Pershing down and they all regret that lack of funds has held it back. We need money to get supplies and workers there fast enough. lour athletic carnival and military tournament will aid U3 materially from a financial standpoint and ve want you to know how keenly we appreciate the Interest of your committee, the State Council of Defense, tha enlirted men and officers cf Camps Grant and Dodge.

The Camp Dodge team -will hold Its first elimination contests late this week and there will be others every few daya until the team leaves for Chicago, Any enlisted man la entitled to challenge a member of the equad and if he wins he will represent the cantonment.

They are Private Joe Hunter. who claims the lightweight colored championship of the South, and Pte. Gussie P-aigre. Poth boss are fast and game. Paigre seems to have the more science cf the two, but Hunter is the harder hitter. Tte. Shanet of the 3S!st machine gun battalion fought a draw with Pte. Rutherford cf the nth training company at 145 pounds. Both are good amateur boxers, but no more. Pt. Poilask! of the 331st machine gun battalion lost to Pte. Ellis of tha mounted police at 15S pounds after a lot of punching on both sides. Pte. Banet of the 20th training company put on an even bout with Pte. Linstrom of the 19th company. Both are willing scrappers without much science. Their weight was 13S pounds. Pte. Jetman of the 24th training company won an easy decision over Pte. Hunt of the 3Slst machine gun battalion. Both are heavies. Jetman moved pretty faat for a ISO-pounder.
