Also Repeats in Team -Struggle for . President’s Cup. \f v the shores of the upper ‘Potomac, Raymond Rud- dy, 18-year-old swimming sensa- tion, again skimmed along the 3- mile course before the Washing- ton Canoe Club yesterday to ¢ emerge triumphant from a field of 24 crack contestants in the an- nual President’s Cup race for the national long distance champion- ship. It was Ruddy's fourth straight victory in the annual race. From the time the starter's gun barked its message it was apparent that the youthful aquatic star would have little” trouble in hanging up another win. Ruddy, who finished in 1 hour, 15 minutes and 48 seconds. appeared as fresh at the end of the course as he did when he started. ‘While Joseph Ruddy, fathes of Ray and coach of the New York Athittic Club, beamed from the pler, four more N. Y. A C. swimmers followtd Ray across the line to take the President’s cup for the fifth consecutive time. Sixty vards behind fae flying Ray came Edward Lee, while Leo Giebel, George Fissler and Don Ruddy, brother of the youthful holder of numerous aquatic * titles. Baltimoreans Are Second. The elder Ruddy shared his en- ¢ thusiasm among his twe sons.

The Springman trophy, donated by , James Springman, well known sports- man, was won for the secowd straight : year by Lawrence Buscher, who was the first local partic’pant to cross the finish line. . ‘Three contestants, Arsenio Arellano and Ben Goldberg, local boys, and John Gill of the Bay Shore Club, were forced to retre early in the race by the cold | water. 2,000 Watch Race. A crowd of some 2,000 watched the roceedings from the host club boat use and the bridge nearby. A dance followed the race in the evening. The summaries: Ray Ruddy (N. Y. A. C), 1:15:48.

The margin of victory, one run, was scored in the last mning. BOROT;RA, TENNIS STAR, HAS BIG YEARLY INCOME Girls and women of France, who for | years practically took no interest in sports, now are playing foot ball, hockey, | basket ball and running cross-country | races. ROD AND CTING upon complaints that | purse netters have crossed the Northern Chesapeake Bay boundary lines in quest of rockfish, Swepson Earle, Maryland's _conservation commissioner, has dis- patched two vessels of the departmental | fleet to patrol those waters. | The special patrol is composed of the | Governor McLane, flagship of the fleet, | and the regular district patrol boat, the | Murray. These boats will be anchored along the imaginery line off Pooles Island to prevent the netters from mak- ing crossings into the forbidden waters. | According to Mr. Earle, the complaints | which he has received not only charge | the netters with crossing the line, but | with failing to throw back fish above | and below the legal size limit. The | law permits the taking of rockfish in | the nets over 12 inches in length and under 15 pounds in weight. Mr. Earle also reported that many tons of rockfish have been taken in the purse nets within the last 10 days from that part of the bay bordering | on the boundary line. A large number of fishermen have left this ground within the last few days to seek trout | lower down the bay, he stated. Another matter of particular interest to local anglers using the lower Potomac for their piscatorial outings is the glmfle by the General Assembly of irginia of a law prohibiting the use of any sunken anchored gill nets in the waters of the Potomac River at any time, and the use of gill nets known as floating or drift nets or stake gill nets 1s prohibited at all times of the year except during the shad and herring season. Any person, firm, or corpora- tion violating any provision of this act shall, on conviction thereof by any Justice of the peace of any county of the State of Virginia, most accessible, forfeit said net or nets of device, to- gether with all boats, vessels and tackle used in the violation of this act, and shall be fined a sum of not less than $300 nor more than $1,000. S‘T)YNAMITING of partially dried up streams in which fish are congregated is a doubly repre- hensible crime during the drought,” says the Commission of Game and In- land Fisheries of Virginia, in a col munication sent to Commonwealth at- torneys and clerks of the Boards of Su- pervisors throughout that State. M. D. Hart, executive secretary, urges road forces and other agencies to f!\‘urd carefully the supply of dynamite order to prevent recurrences of dyna- miting pools, such as have been reported to his office. Hart says one of his su- rvising wardens writes that most of his dynamiting is traceable to road construction camps, county and State, where dynamite is accessible and avail- able. Fish certainly lead what you might call a “dog’s life.” There is always a fight confronting them from the time they are large enough to strike out for themselves. First, they are the prey of other fish, then they have battles with all kinds of nets. attractive baits and they are dynamited out of their homes, and last, but by no means least, it must not be forgotten that pollution is causing the deaths of millions of them each year. II'B‘.IR! is one fish often caught by nglers, seldom kept, and of which know little—the eel. A hith- erto unknown chapter in the life of the eel's been supplied tional Geogra The bulle- tin says the missing chapter in the eel's l:‘h hutm'ydhlve be’cn .:A:&I::: through modern’ deep-sea inves! rather than in the study of fresh or coastal waters, where eels are more in evidence. According to the report, all the eels The anglers dangle | winne BY PERRY MILLER: ‘ in the world, have two headquarters where they meet annually, one in the Indian_Ocean for Asian, African and Australian _eels, and a place in the sea near Bermuda for the American | and European eels. | Unlike salmon, shad and other fishes | which enter fresh water to spawn, the eel descends streams at maturity to| spawn far at sea. The young eels— | three inches or so in length, called | elvers—that enter fresh waters in the Spring in large numbers have always | been known, but the stages of growth between the egg and the elver were | not. These stages in which the baby | eel does mot exceed three inches in length are ot comparatively recent dis- covery. The report states that investigations by the Danish vessel Dana in 1920 and 1921 showed that the early larval stages of both the American and the European eel are found only in the | Western Atlantic at depths of 600 and | 900 feet. The former spawns in the | south and southwest of the Burmuda | Islands, the latter to the south and southeast. While the American eel begins to | enter fresh water at the age of one | year, the European spqcies remains | three years in the larval stages be- fore it appears as the elver in Euro- pean streams. The -latter, like the American eel, goes far inland. Fe- males with ripe eggs are unknown, the millions of undeveloped eéggs carried by each female nat developing while the eels linger in fresh or coastal waters. Eels enter all American streams from the St. Lawrence River to ti.e Gulf of Mexico. It is only the young eels that move upstream. Adults move downstream and do not return. Both males and females die at sea after the first and only breeding season in their lives. The eel is very prolific, each female gtoducing from 5,000,000 10,000,000 eggs. SYCAMORE REGATTA CARDED LABOR DAY Entry blanks are out for the annual Sycamore Broadwater regatta to be held at Sycamore Island Labor day under the auspices of the Montgomery Sycamore Island Club.

Our cor- respondent at Richmond, Va. sends in the following: A Richmond fisherman brings in this story after a day at a nearby pond. He had taken the necessary lure for fish in & small minnow bucket and some refreshments for himself. Sitting quietly on the bank of the pond, with his lines ready for action and a pronged stick just to hold his pole, he heard a slight noise in the grass nearby and saw a snake, which he described as nearly 4 feet long, with a large frog kicking vigorously in its mouth. The fisherman grabbed his pronged stick, placed it behind the snake's head and, catching hold of the frog's legs, pulled it from its perilous posi- tion and threw it into the water. Then, as the thought struck him that it was a mean trick to play on the snake, he thought to reimburse it for its loss. Having nothing more convenient than his refreshments he poured some down the snake’s throat. The snake wiggled away rather spryly and was soon forgotten by the sherman In about half an hour, however, something hit him in the back as he sat watching his lines, and on the second blow he turned around. There right behind him was the same jnake. It had another frog in its aws. \COPS BLANK EAGLES AS SINE IS SUBDUED With John Sine pitching three-hit ball and fanning 11, District Police base ball team yesterday blanked Skinker Eagles, 6 to 0, on the Eagle field.
