The birds came when a horde of small insects appeared on the turf, and have: so increased as to consti- tute a menace to the players’ happi- ness. Shooting is forbidden on the Property, 80 members have prepared @ petition requesting permission to fire charges of blank powder to frighten away the “birdies” while hunts for another sort of birdie is on.

English Caddies Are Heavy Losers London, March 28.—(?)—Golf cad- dies attached to English clubs have suffered heavy loss from the severity of. the past winter.

Heilmann Waivers {the Detroit Tigers would Phoenix, Ariz., March 28,—(P)—Re- ports that Manager Bucky Harris of for waivers on Harry Heilmann, star out- fielder, because of his failure. to ob- serve training rules and regulations, were circulated today.

Eric Krenz, Stanford's blond giant, who recently heaved the discus more than five feet beyond the world’s rec- ord, will try for even a greater mark. This isn’t the first time that Nich- ols and Anderson have matched strides. In the Olympic trials at Cambridge, Mass., last year, Ander- son won the final heat from Nichols when the latter stumbled. They had been running neck and neck ‘so the long pending question of their rela- tive speed still is unsolved. Both Tied Record Both men have ftied the world 120- yard high hurdle record of 14.4 sec- Request Reported, onds. Anderson took second place in the Olympic:games at Amsterdam, losing a great race to Weightman- Smith of South Africa. The flashy athletes will battle over pe 75-yard route in the indoor meet ere, Krenz heaved the platter 163 fect 8% inches in competition with the Olympic Athletic club of San Fran- cisco March 9. The world’s record was held by Clarence “Bud” Houser, former University of Southern Cal- ifornia weight man, who threw the discus 158 f¢et 1% inches three years ago. Krenz made his phenomenal record on a soggy field with the wind against him. Whether the big Car- dinal can better this mark indoors is @ matter of conjecture. Rothert Is Strong Krenz also is to take the shot event but not until after a battle with his teammate, Harlow Rothert. At the Olynapic trials Krenz tossed the shot 50 feet 1 inch while Rothert lagged only a half inch behind. Lack of facilities on the Pacific coast heretofore have forced all major track events out of doors, and the indoor night affair will be quite a novelty to Seattle fans. The huge Washington pavilion was constructed a little more than a year ago and will accommodate any athletic event up to and including a football game.

A similar movement is in swing in Connecticut, where some 300 miles of fishing streams have been opened to anglers permanently through agita- tion and efforts of sportsmen's clubs. The first steps in the plan call for obtaining leases of narrow strips of land at either side of brooks that are most fished by the public. The under- standing is.that the brooks shall be open to licensed fishermen at all times and not restricted to a privi- leged few. At the present time no money is given the landowner. A guarantee is made by the sportse= men’s club leasing the land to pay any damages up to $100 caused by licensed fishermen. It provides also for the protection of fences and for the placing of signs at frequent, in- wishes in the use of gates, stiles, and sol parking of automobiles.
