MANY SEEK TO EMULATE GAME OF GREAT PLAYER Mrs, Hurd, National Champion, Is Among Those ‘Who Take “Lessons” From Providence Girl, in Hope of Retaining Her Title. BY RAY McCARTHY. ALM BEACH, February 21,—When Babe Ruth went on a home- rampage a back, he not only influenced the box office receipts of the various major league clubs, but the batting styles of many ball players as well. Just so Miss Glenna Collett, who today is generally recognized as America's leading woman golfer, is influencing many good golfers to an extent where they are beginning to change their styles of hitting the ball in order to get more distance. Many of the golf stars among the women realize after playing against the hard-hitting Glenna that they have to have a greatly superior short game to offset the Providence girl's advantage from the tee and through the fairway. And inasmuch as Glenna herself is no weakling with a mashie. niblick or putter, her opponents generally are playing at a considerable disadvantage.

The shad, familiar te all though never known to to attack at times ilifully placed fly, is a prolific fish, yielding as high as 150,000 eggs a season. It is a member of herring family, and spends the Spring’ months in the rivers, where it lays its spawn, and the rest of the year in decp-sca waters, On the Atlantic coast it ente all rivers between the St. Johns, in’Florida, and the St. John, in New Brunswick. The success of artificial Proj ation of shad is shown by the fact th::‘n)onl; 2,000 miles of shore line on the Pacific, Wwhere it never existed before, it has been established and remains, ‘in spite of the heavy toll of overfishing, next to the Chinook salmon, the most important river fish in America This fish does not appear to be a migrant from warmer to cooler waters with the‘advent of Spring, but remains the deep waters of the ocean until the temperature of the river waters rie | o about§0 degrees. The shad attains t length of more than 2 feet and a weight of 14 pounds, but its welght is about 4 pounds. o o 8¢ Then comes the herring, relatives are the sardines, and the menhadens. To be found throughout the entire North Atlantic Ocean, this fish is probably the most Important food fish in the world. Most of the fish are soid fresh, either for human food or for cod bait. It has never attained the popularity on American tables that it has on those of Europe. In our waters it is largely taken north of Cape Cod. Immense quan- tities of the young are 'taken and packed and sold as sardines. It has been estimated that the annual catch of herring now exceeds 10,000,000,000. The herring, unlike most fish, is par- ticularly fine flavored at spawning time and the fisheries are carried on busily during that season. Tautog Good Food Fish, Another fish valued for its food is the tautog, found from New Bruns- wick to the Carolinas. North of New York it is called the tautog, while New York knows it as the blackfish Farther south it is called the oyster fish. Its average welght is about three pounds. It has hard scales, a hard mouth and s as slippery as an eel. Close relatives of the tautog are the hogfish of Florida waters and the fatheads of southern California. The butterfish form a large group of the small fish, famous for the quality of their flesh. It is known as the dollarfish in Maine, the butter- fish in Boston and Norfolk and the pumpkin seed in Connecticut. The harvest fish, which ranges from Cape Cod to Brazil and Is especially abundant off the Virginia Capes, is another of the butterfish family. It reaches a length of 10 inches. And there is the’scup to be found betwetn Cape Cod and the Carolinak. It fs lled the scup in New England, the rky in New York and the fair- Id farther south, getting back to purky again at Charleston.

By consistently good bowling, every man rolling 300 or better for the set, the Soils outfit took jle first two games and regis- tered 534 in the third, good enough to win most any game in the Inter- bureau, Members of the Economics and Property teams, whose match was postponed, gathered at the Soils-Plant contest, pulling for Plant to drag the leaders down. Prospects looked good for that, too, when Soils started with but four men, but those four did yeo- man’s work and more than offset the dummy seore, W. and C.

Gowan, the league's leading bowler, responded to frantic tele- phone calls and joined the Solls' line- up for the two other games, his fine shooting putting the secbnd game in Soils' won column Bill Whelan's Public Roads team furnished the surprise of the week by taking two games from the fast- traveling Solicitors. , Humphries starred for the winners, with a set total of 322, while Bill contributed 310 himself, and landed the pins at vital times. The star of the match, however, was Murphy, Solicitors’ Jeader, who spilled 135 for high’ game of the evening, and totaled 352 for his set. His high game decided the third contest in favor of his team. Critchlow started with a 130 game for Roads, but fell by the wayside in the others. Murphy was the only Solicitor bowler to reach the 300 mark, though Seaton totaled 299. With Evans leading the way, a habit he seems to have had for thg| past six weeks, the Accounts team took two games from the Inter- bureaus and lost the third In a roll- off, both teams having totaled 531 Locknane's 120 was the high game for the match, and won the final con- test for Accounts. Roney and Ready did the best bowling for Interbureaus, having sets of 325 and 327, resp tively. Bill McCarthy started well, but weakened in the third and just managed to get over the 300 mark for his set. Bill has been dellver- ing the goods in fine style this sea- son.

The correct form for this top position is shown in Fig-| ure 1. | The weight of the body having moved to the right, through the hips, while the club is taken up, obviously the first requirement in the down swing is this: The hips must be| gotten out of the way before the| shoulders can’act.

Neither of these teams shot up to their standard After getting off to a good start, having 123 and 119 for his first two games, Campbell fell down to 80 in his last effort. the lowest game he has rolled this season. His team, Golden Rule, lost two games to Salem. Cordell of the losers totaled 333 for his set. Harmony dropped Federal City a few points in their race for top hon- ors by taking two games.

Within a fortnight the Chevy Chase Club plans to proceed with the pro- gram of bunkering outlined last Fall, which will result in stiffening up the course considerably. While all the details have not been decided upon, it appears now that a pair of bunkers will be added to the left side of the sixth hole, to catch a badly hooked tee shot and a second shot to the left of the line.

As the four- teenth now stands, the long hitters drive down nearly to the ditch, under favorable ground conditions, and have nothing left but a short niblick pitch. Putting the tee back 40 or 50 vards would leave them more than a short pitch, but would still not destroy the advantage of the long driver. new post _has not yet who-was at Congressional has about decided to leave the course as it stands for the present year.
