This is a highly effective shoe, and to date Jarrell has been demonstrating ability to fling it ac- curately.

Camp Young Scouts Matched For Big Horseshoe Tourney boys at Camp Young are not | only enjoying the program of scouting, base ball, volley ball and swimming, but are greatly enthused over The Washington's Star's harseshoe tournament which gets under way at the camp this week. With over 40 boys ready to toss the irons, Camp Director Arthur O. Waller and Chief Counselor Robert McGraw feel confi- dent of developing a tosser who will advance to the Metropolitan finals. McGraw, who has been appointed chairman of the shoe piiching tourney, arnounces there will be two separate events, the first for the boys at camp during the first period, which ends on July 19, and the second for the boys of the second period, startiog on July 29 and ending August 2. The champion of “cach period will qualify to compete in_divisional play in the city. A medal will be awarded the winner of each period. The first period pairings: First _round—John M.

ROD AND STREAM BY PERRY MILLER. HIRTY ccnservationists from | Maryland, Virginia, West Vir- ginia and the District of Cn-i lumbia gathered at the Raleigh Hotel recently to try to solve the up- river fishing rights of the Potomac. | ‘The conference was called by Swepson | Earle, conservation commissioner of | Maryland, who sent invitations to the fish commissioners of Virginia and West Virginia, the officials of the United | States Bureau of Fisheries and leaders | in conservation work in the three States | involved in the controversy. Commissioner Earle said his State had no ax to grind, that under the compact of 1785 between his State and | Virginia the control of the Potomac to, the Virginia shore was given to Mary- | land, and that his compact had never | been amended. “There is no question | about Maryland's control of the Poto-| mac,” he said, “but we wan: to give the anglers of our two neignboring | States, Virginia and West Virginia, the | privilege of fishing above tidewater in| the Potomac provided we receive scme- thing in return.” Dr. M. D'Arcy Magee, president of the Maryland-District of Columbia Council and national director of the Izaak Walton League of America, pre- | sided over the conference. A report was submitted concerning the condition of the waters of the up- er Potomac, showing that within the fu‘t 10 years this stream had been cleared of 80 per cent of its pollution, and that waste materials entering the river had been reclaimed by the in- dustrial plants and put on a paying basis. L. Lee Compte, Maryland's game war-| den, told of the approximately 750 miles | of fishing waters of the Potcmac. He“ said while his State was willing to give the anglers of Vitginia and West Vir- ginia the privilege of fishing in the non-tidal waters of the Potomac, that is, above Little Falls, he thought in return for this concession Virginia and West Virginia should allow Maryland anglers the privilege of fishing 10 miles up any tributary of the Potomac. He said he considered this a smali return for the 750 miles Maryland was willing to_give to those two States. This proposition was immediately taken up by the representatives of Vir- ginia and West Virginia, who said that while they themselves might be willing to grant it, they were certain their respective Legislatures would not pass such a measure. TH.E question of control of the river presented by Virginia representa- tives, who claimed that the read- ing of the old compact of 1785 said that fishing rights were to be equally en- joyed by Virginia ?d Maryland. Mary- land's reply was that the law stated this right only pertained to navigable waters and did not extend to non- tidal waters. This question was de- bated both pro and con, and while it was finally decided that the control of the Potomac was Maryland’s, there was an under-current among rerrw:n'-a- tives from Virginia and Maryland that the United States Supreme Court might decide otherwise. COMMITTEE was appointed by Dr. Magee of representatives from Virginia and West Virginia to draft a reply to Maryland’s offer. This counter proposition by Virginia and West, Virginia was rejected by Swepson Earle at the conference. It then was decided to appoint a tri-State com- mittee consisting of the fish commis- sioners of the three States, the at- torney generals or their assistants, and Lewis Radcliffe, deputy commissioner of the United States Bureau of Fish- eries. This committee is to draft a resolution to be presented to the Vir- ginia General Assembly, the first Legis- lature of the States involved to meet, and in turn to be submitted to the Legislatures of the other two States the following year. The tri-State Com- mittee will meet in Washington on November 1. The writer was impressed with the strong you-give-me and ve-you sentiment that was manife by the 400 COMPETE IN TOURNEY FOR WASHINGTON STAR PRIZES. | ginia_to fish t yesterday of their tournament, which different State Maryland officials. wanted the right to fish 10 miles up in every tributary of the Potomac in exchange for the privilege of allowing residents of Virginia and West Vir- in common with her anglers in_the Potomac River. Vir- | ginia and West Virginia could not see this proposition, but submitted a counter offer to stock the Potomac, | police it, and do everything in its power to combat pollution, which Mary- | land rejected. T may be that before the year 1933 something can_be accomplished by the three Stafes on this matter. | As the matter now stands, the at- torney generals of Virginia and West vVirginia have ruled that their resi- | dents can fish in the Potomac River, without a Maryland license. The at- torney general of Maryland has ruled that a Maryland license is necessary to fish in the Potomac above the tide- water, and there you are. Rod and Stream suggests that the matter of fishing rights in the Potomac be taken to the United States Supreme | Court for a decision on the old com- | pact entered into between Maryland and Virginia back in 1785. In our opinion this compact is entirely too old to be operative today. ALBOTT DENMEAD, law enforce- ment officer of the United States Bureau of Fisheries in a conver- sation with the writer last week, fol- lowing the Washington fish conference, said he was not at all in favor of a non-resident fishing license. He said he was in favor of a reciprocal agree- ment between the States. whereby a| man with his own Etate license would be allowed to fish in any other State. | He informed us that it reminded him | of a man inviling you to visit him hfsine and then charging him for his visit. Seth Gordon, president of the Amer- ican Game Association, said that the time was near when the high State fishing and hunting license will be a thing of the past for non-residents. He said that a closer feeling of fellowship and sportsmanship will spring up when the non-resident license is materially reduced or completely done away with. He informs us that he personally knows of sportsmen who have left money in other States to feed the birds during the ‘Winter months and also pays his lic:nse to the State for the privilege of hunt- ing them. Still, he claims, the State authorities say that the non-resident should bz made to pay for his sport and pay well, because he contributes nothing for better hunting and better fishing. He said at the conference last wcek, “if you people of the three States of Mary- land, Virginia and West Virginia will set an exampl> I am sure that the rest of the country will follow it.” ‘OAH HAZZARD, at Chesapeake Beach is running a boat over to the Eastern Shore of the bay for anglers. Now comes a report from Buck Cummings at Tilghmans Island that he will me:t parties at any time at An- napolis, take them across the bay to fish around Tilghmans, Sharps Island in the mouth of the Big Choptank and back to Annapolis.

B prophesied early this Spring that the Industrial Base Ball League, which hitherto had been something of a “weak sister” in sandlot ball ranks, this season would assume the position as Washington’s major sandlot loop, formerly held by the now defunct Terminal League, but Flester’s prophesy, even at this stage of the campaign, has been realized. So strong has the Industrial League become through an almost complete re- vision of rules and rosters that it now is ranked above its contemporaries, the Government, Departmental and George- town Church Leagues, both in base ball records and drawing power. The opening of the eligibility gate last week, when it was agreed upon to allow each of the three leading teams— ‘Washington Terminal, Construction and Loffler—twQ additional “outside” play- ers\ and the two weaker clubs—Big Print Shop and Railroad Y. M. C. A. —four apiece, in order to tighten up the race, was the climax of the Industrial’s struggle for a place in the sandlot sun. Some 3,000 turned out for the first battle since the new ruling went into effect, and watched Washington Ter- minal, with Lefty McIntyre, eligible under the new rule, turn back Lof- fler, who added Blackie Adair and Tubby Joseph. That the admittance of these new players had the effect President Bill Flester and managers had in mind is proved by the race, the closest of all week day leagues. Constructioneers, who acquired Lefty Brown and Jack Mattingly, are tied with Terminal, who added Ike Dreifuss in addition to Mc- Intyre, for first place with three wins and one loss. Loffler is second with two wins and one loss. Y. M. C. A. and Big Print, the former strengthened by the addi- tion of Pepco Barry and Johnny Nicro and two others, and the latter including Slip Alsop, Shipman and Zimmerly among its new additions, are tied for the cellar with a .500 percentage for four games apiece—only one game behind the leaders at that. ILL FLESTER took in a lot of territory when he HOULD a protest from the contend- coming at the time of the city series, Flester annonced that the new players on the winning Industrial League club would be kept out of the line-up during the champlonship series.
