And anglers for both small and large mouth bass are at bat now and having a big inning. As the season advances larger fish are being landed. In the month of Sep- tember & 21%-pound bass was consid- ered a good catch. During the present month the largest bass entered in Rod and Stream's contest is a beauty weigh- ing 5 pounds 9% ounces, and instea of other bass weighing merely 2% or 3 pounds, varieties weighing 4 and 4% pounds have been landed. The same condition applies to salt water. Larger fish are being caught, notably rock, tay- lors and trout. Last month the largest ult-w-u[' fish ;:u;:ed in our wnmm weighed 7 poun avy. This mont the largest fish entered so far—and it is going to be hard to beat—is & rock- fish caught in the bay on the Eastern Shore weighing 18%; pounds. In the upper Potomac the small- mouth bass, if the angler is fortunat enovgh to get to the places where they are hiding, may reward him with good catches, These gamesters are being caught at Seneca, at Widewater in the canal and, in fact, almost everywhere. boat, not even in a canoe.

He said that these rock are biting well. Tuesday Capt. Trott landed 48 rock, weighing from 2 to 8 pounds, trolling around Piney Point. He said that trout and blues are being | caught trolling off Point Lookout in the Bay, about 2 miles off shore, and that both species are running very large. Over on the Eastern Shore Capt. Daniel P. Ball, after a long silence, writes: “It has been sometime since 1 have written to you, but I have sent you some reports by Washington par- ties fishing over here. Last Sunday, October 19, I had a party of three from Baltimore and tried trolling, but it was not so good; had much better luck still fishing, landing 25 trout, some of them weighing 7 pounds. We lost several big fish, one of the party losing a drum. PFish seems to be plentiful.” 'OLLOWING Capt.

When the sun rose, however, the wind, which had been blowing just a little, increased in veloc- ity and soon there were whlmgs in every direction, the fish stopped biting and we lwiped fishing. We landed, however, eight trout and two of the largest eads I ever have seen. Tm! is no doubt about the big fish being around Solomons Island, either at Sandy Point, off Town Point, around Point Patience or out in the Bay off Cedar Point. If one doesn't get them one place he will find them at another. Last Sunday I met three anglers who had motored down to Solo- mons from Pittsburgh. They were real anglers and did not fuss and stew be- cause they failed to land fish on ac- count of the high wind. My, but it did blow and it was really cold.

Assistant Golf Pros to Play For Middle SSISTANT professionals of the Middle-Atlantic sector are to play for the assistants’ cbam- plonship next Thursday at Rodgers Forge Golf Club, and if you think the boys are not in earnest about winning this event, watch them these days as they go through their morning work-outs. The assistant pros, be it known, are the gents who have not quite arrived at the stature of a real golf professional. That simply means that they do a lot of work by way of repairing clubs, giving lessons and generally cleaning up the odd jobs the boss has no time to do, and in be- tween, when they get a moment to spare, they hit a golf ball around. Two years ago Brick Wood, the as- sistant “pro at the Washington club, caught a streak of hot golf and won the assistants’ championship. They gave him something in the neighborhood of $40 for winning and at that time Brick could use the $40. But Brick is a for- ward-looking lad, and he wanted scme- thing to tell his buddm'tz:““! family that their daddy at one e had won a golf tournament. So Brick took the $40 and went down town to a jeweler's where he had a medal made with the proud inscription, “Assistant Professional’ Championship, 1928.” Brick didn't do so well last year, for during the interim they had made him the guard over a lot of cad- dies and set him out on & cold hillside Eynon family are always doing the unexpected. Years ago we recall how Ed Eynon used to come from behind to win championships, 15 years back when the present secretary of the Washing- ton Base Ball Club was just about the finest piece of golfing machinery among the amateurs about the Capital. Three weeks ago Everett Eynon, & chip of the old block, romped over young Tommy Bones to win the Co- lumbia Country Club - championship, and yesterday Mrs. Everett Eynon, wife of the Columbia title-holder, came from nw-"ehu:k to win the women's crown of big club out near Chevy Chase Lake, Mrs. Eynon has & habit of doing just that. She was down during the part of the final round for the Rhode Island State champlonship, last Summer, but she came from behind to win, just as she did yesterday to beat Mrs. J. Marvin Haynes on seven- teenth hole to toppie the club crown from Mrs. Haynes' head. ‘The twin victory of the Eynon fam- ily in the Columbia championshi) fl:l e have | coun in same year. .

Walter Cunningham, now the pro at Burning Tree, who used to caddie with Brick over the old Washington course, came over to the hills of Virginia and licked him—not once but thrice. That seemed to take the spirit out of Brick, and he lost his championship to Law- rence Wisner, the assistant to Ralph Beach at the Suburban Club of Balti- more. But it is believed that Brick has y"mmfi;n win another medal again, for he been seen for the t few evenings surreptitiously working out with * “Jimmy,” Dave Thomson’s club cleaner in the shop at Washington. ‘There are a lot of good assistant pros around the Capital who can make the going rather wugh for any man. Such Iads as Archie Clark of Congressional, Gene Larkin of Chevy Chase, George Diffenbaugh of Indian Spring, Gilbert Cunningham at Burning Tree, Billy Malloy at Columbia, Claude Orndorfl at Woodmont and Al Jamison at the Army, Navy and Marine Corps Club, all are capable of shooting a formidable brand of golf. ‘They will all be over at Rodgers Phr?e next Thursday, where Irvin Schioss, assistant to Charles Betschler, will attempt to say it in hospitable fash- jon by winning a golf tournament from them.

Freddie and the he plays with do not tee up either. They play 'em as they lie on those hard fair- ways. McLeod says he does not notice any difference in the distance h:“(lm from the tee, and says the new much easier to get up than the old ball.

Last year's team probably would have been helpless against the varied and smooth smashing attack of West Vir- ginia, and almost surely would have been defeated by at least four touch- downs. That Howard could come back in the second half with the brilliant passing attack it exhibited is thought to indicate that Verdall's squad possesses more potential offensive strength than ‘was expected. ‘The team has been working hard in preparation for tomorrow’s tilt with Livingstone College of Salisbury, N. in the Howard Stadium. Verdall is e: to as hard an opponent as in West Virginia, though it has no outstanding stars like Edwards and Boxsdale.
