This bill was pigconholed in the committee room. In 1914 thers was more thought and publicity given to the movement, and the first bill for the protection of the crab was passed which was strengthened in 1916 and during the war session of 1917 During the meeting of the Virginia Assembly in 1916 ihe writer was au- thorized to go to Virginia and endeavor to get some similar legislation to pro- tect the female crab in Virginia water After several conferences at the state house in Richmond. the committee sgreed to protect the crab during the months of June, July and August. How- ever, when this legislation was brought before the Assembly, the season was re- duced to one and a half months (from July 15 to September 1). The most im- portant season for protecting the crab bearing the egg-sponge was found to be May and June 3 In 1917 the United States Bureau of Fisheries made a careful investigation of the life history of the blue crab of Chesapeake Bay. This investigation was conducted by Dr E. P. Churchill, and upon its completion it was found that the female crab, after mating in Mary- land waters, sought the waters near the Capes, where the salt water was neces- sary to develop the eggs. This required a period of nine months, when the eggs formed on the apron of the crab, giv- ing it the appearance of a sponge—hence the name “sponge crab” It was found that a single female crab was capable | of producing about half a million young. ! The little crabs, when first hatched out are microscopic, btu after shedding about five times in the shallow waters near Hzmpton Roads they start their migra- tion to Maryland, to continue the shed- ding process in the grassy bottoms of Tangier Sound. The crab does not shed after the temperature of the water drops below 52 degrees. During the Winter period. the crab lies dormant on the bottoms or buries in the mud 'he State of Virginia, especially the interests at Hampton, the center of the hard crab industry, opposed any more changes in the crab laws, and nothing constructive was done in this line until 1924, when Gov, Ritchie ex- tended an invitation to ex-Gov, Trinkle and Commissioner Lee of Virginia to come to Annapolis to discuss the situ- ation “The governors agreed that legisla- tion was necassary (o save the crab, and two commissioners were authorized to organize committees to go into the matter. In 1926, Virginia passed the protective legisiation on the sponge crab, which prohibits the taking of this crab at any time in the waters of that State. Maryland passed legislation in- sing the size of hard crabs to 5 inches (from tip to tip of spike) and Lo prevent, the crab known as “green crab’” from going into floats. Many layman think that crab and the soft crab are two dis- tinet species of the crab family. To grow the crab must shed, and the crab that has just shed its hard shell is the s0ft crab. It takes 24 hours for the salt water (o harden the soft crab. The new shell is about three-quarters of an tnch longer than the old shell, and that is the way a crab grows, This common-sense leglslation on part of the two States using the great body of water like the Chesapeake Bay Is the best lesson we have for the citizens of Maryland to enact other leg- islation 10 control the great nels that take their toll of spawning shad and other fish on thelr way to the upper bav waters and thereby prevent them from reproducing. 1t is gratifying to be able to state that the conservation movement in our State is gaining thou- sands of followers each year, and we | belleve through education work, car- ried on in the schools, and through the hard the for | moving pletures and suitable literature | had two vears' varsity experience Among the prospects is Coquelle ‘Thompson, 200-pound Indian, whose Spring practice work stamps him ac an outstanding fullback possibility One of Coach Paul Schissler's first moves was to shift Mel Whitlock, mammoth halfback, to an end posi- tion. It is expected to materially strengthen the front line while there is plenty of “beef” left in the back row. Among the graduates from the freshman team Is Henry Hughes, who learned to carry the ball in the “barefoot league” of Honolulu. The Hawaiian can kick a ball as far barefooted as most. others do with shoes on Graduation struck a heavy blow at Washington last season and Coach Enoch Bagshaw is faced with the task of replacing many positions with new and practically unknown performers. In the backfield, how- ever. he will have Charles Carroll, leading point scorer of the confer- ence last year, and Thurle Thorn- ton, another capable ball lugger Washington State College takes the fleld with a stronger looking squad than in 1927 while Idaho. Oregon and Montana, all in good shape in the way of veterans. are figured to put formidable elevens into action D. C. NETMEN LIKELY TOURNEY FINALISTS! EASTON. Md..

BY VINCENT RICHARDS. | American Professional Tennis Champion Soecial cable to The Star and the North American Newspaper Alliance LONDON, September 3.—Karel Koze- luh won the second match of the series for the world’s professional tennis championship from me here on the splendid clay court of the Queen’s Club, 8—S§, 2—6, 6—4, 1—6, 6—2. Kozelub used the same tactics he used at Prague, being content to stay at base tine and keep the ball in play, | winning mainly on my errors. Kozeluh is considered the greatest player in the world. The experts here were surprised that T won two sets. Personally, 1 belleve Kozeluh is much better on clay courts than he is on the | turf, where the ball does not come up so nigh. The courts here are suited to his waiting game Kozeluh and I just hope an open tournament will be held in America late in September. It would be interesting | to see the Czechoslovakian play against such men as Tilden. Cochet, Borotra Hunter, Lott and Hennessey | The form 1 displayed against Kozeluh here was near my top. so T am of the | | opinion he will defeat most of the lead- ing amateurs in the United States The astounding thing about him is that he is able to maintain tournament form throughout the year and at the | ame time teach tennis six months on {the Riviera. He is the fist man in the history of the game who has ever | | been able to do both things at the same time. We leave here together on the Levia- | than on Tuesday, arriving to witness the amateur championship at Forest Hills, where we will start serlous prac tice for the final serles of matches in | | America for the professional champi- onship.

RADIO CHANNELS Commission Applies Mathe- matics to Untangle Problem. When a legislative flat collides with the principles of an exaet science the result, sometimes, is decimal fractions. | as was demonstrated when the Federal | Radio Commission undertoox to carry out the provisions of the radio act, re- |quiring an “equitable” apportionment of radio channels among the various | States in each radio sone on the basic of population. | The commission has interpreted this part of the law as meanng that the proportion of the total radio facilities due each State is fixed by statute and cannot be changecs by the commission. However, the commission holds that it is for it to decide what is the total of radio facilities consistent with the | maintenance of good radio conditions. Operating on that theory. the commis- sion has adopted a plan permitting the simultaneous operation of 165 stations of 500 watts and upward. Local 100- watt stations do not count. Having fixed the number of channels | to be allocated. the commission was in a position to obtain the population fig- ures from the Bureau of the Census. the number of States from a geography. then apply the laws of mathe- maties and the Davis amendment. The result, as heretofore indicated, is & col- ~fractions According to this apportionment——it isn't an allocation yet because partic- ular channels or parts thereof have not been assigned to particular States—New York will be entitled to 14 channels. This is one of the few whole numbers in the list. Next comes California, which will be entitled to 13.52 channels. Pennsylvania comes third with an ap- portionment of 11.50 channels and Mlinois is fourth with 9.30. At the bottom of the list is Nevada, which is entitled to 0.26 of a channel, which i hardly a channel at all. Delaware is next to last with 0.27 It is possible. of course. these fractional apportionments by a division of time: for example, a State entitled to-one-half of a channel could be allowed to use that channel half of the time. 1If such a scheme should be attempted, the commission will have to decide whether time should be meas- ured by the clock or by its competitive value at various hours. It would be necessary to decide whether the hour of from 4 to 5 am., for example, should be counted as equivalent to the same number of minutes between 9 and 10 pm. Perhaps all of these problems will be settled by another amendment (o the radio act. 'he commission itself seems to have some doubt about the practicability of its apportionment of channels. Tt says: “Since the quotas are in all cases fractions, it is evident that the quota requirements can be applied only ap- proximately: this was recognized in the law itself. which required equality only in so far as practicable. The commi sion's alloeation of stations, to be an- nounced within a few days. provide: the most practicable approach to the quotas that could be reached.” (Copyright, 1938 by the Consolidated Press.)

Facsimile and picture transmission by wires has long been past the laboratory stage, but radio develop- | ments along this line are only now emerging commercially. Close on the heels -of the contracts whereby the Western Union and Postal will lease the 'A. T. & T. telephoto facilities for fac- simile messages, the Radio Corporation of America is reported to be preparing to enter the same fleld, using inland radio circuits. The tadio company has for some Hme been operating circuits carrying pictures and facsimile messages between New | York and London and San Francisco and Honolulu. It is now projecting a2 domestic service on an improved seale Already licensed to transmit experi- mentallr between New York and San | Francisco, it proposes to extend thess radio_circuits to other large cities in | the United States. The Westinghouse laboratories have developed a new synchronized trans- | mitter and receiver for this proposed system. On the transmitting end. the signals are taken from a letter by light reflecting from the surface, so that anv | message can be sent identically as filed The receiving message is printed as » positive which is immediately availabl~ for delivery upon the completion of i= development, a matter of only a few | minutes. 4‘ Sent to Washington. S. M. Kintner. manager of the Wes!- inghouse research department. has hec: | sent to Washington a sample copy <~ | a facsimile letter with two solid pars- graphs of typewritten copy, which wr= | transmitted in 50 seconds. He stat~ that 5x8-inch pictures can be sent in little less than 1 minute. The net result of the Federal Radin Commission’s citation of 164 broad- casting stations is that more than 100 are still on the air, most of them hav- ing proved their right to exist at the | recent public hearings. Thirty-four never replied to the sum- mons to lay their cases before the hoard and were summarily stricken from the list. Fifteen were deleted for faflure to make a good showing. About A dozen power cute were or- | dered, largely because the stations werr situated in congested loca! areas. Four Pennsylvania stations obtained & pro- bationary extention of their licenses pending observations to see whether they will comply with the commission’s suggestion that they eliminate the per- sonalities that have heen exchanged ! with rival stations vis the microscope to the extreme annoyance of many liz- teners. | Drastic Ruling. Perhaps the most drastic deletion or- der was the refusal to renew the licen ¢ of WMMB-WOK. near Chicago, 2 3,000-watt station with a capacity of 20 tilowatts. This was ordered on the ground that Chicage is “being over- served at the expense af the rest of the country. and, in fact. at the expense of its own radio listening publif , Pacific Coast broadcasting was prac- ! tically unaffected by the recent cita- tions of stations by the Federal Radio Commission, only a handful of minor stations being eliminated for failure io make a showing. One of the probiems facing Com- missioner Lafount is to find a place for the superpower station which the newly incorporated Pacific Broadcast- ing Federation of Los Angeles proposes !to erect in Orange County, with re- mote control studios in other cities in California and in Nevada and Arizona With stanch political and multi-denom- inational church backing, the promoters of this enterprise propose to broadeast cultural programs as a protest agains ‘the prevalent debauchery of the air.” The West Coast has Eastern interest focused upon it also because of the proposed new network being projected there by Adolph Linden, Seattle bank- ‘er. Mr. Linden, who was in Washing- |ton this week, announced that he ex- {pected to hook up a Los Angeles and a Salt Lake station soon and perhaps !others later to the chain of four sta- {tions which he already owns. This chain comprises KGA, Spokane: KJR. Seattle: KEX, Portland, and KYA. NAME AUTO DRIVERS IN PIKES PEAK RACE Br the Associated Press. COLORADO SPRINGS. Colo..
