CAPTALBLESSED FOR WINTERPLA iTraffic on Layouts Here Equals Boom Years. BY W. R. McCALLUM. HERE may be better Winter Balmy Weather Helps. resorts for golfers than the National Capital, but to . I date they haven't been dis- covered north of the Carolinas. For many Winters thase addicts who talk their sport with flying divots and curling putts have had next to nothing to complain about by way of weather, but the pres- ent brand of golfing weather beats all previous Winters by a full brassie shot. Since these two snowfalls back in December, before Christmas, when snow covered the ground for the better part of three weeks, there has been a steady succession of aays of high temperature, sun, and conditions, virtually perfect for the game of go.f. Indeed, not in the allegedly fine weather of April and May have conditions been beiter for playing golf. Ever since Christmas the weather has been ideal. Only a few cold days have interfered and these have been succeeded by such fine weather that even the gent who packs his clubs away in motn balls in No- vember and vows not to go out again until Spring has been coaxed out by the Spring-like temperatures. HE golf courses are in first-class shape, too. Not in many Winters ve we seen them in such perfect condition. The only possible drawback is that putting greens cannot be kept as true as they are in Midsummer, when it is possible to keep them rolled. Rolling is not possible in Win- ter, for to put a heavy roiler on Winter putting grecns would make them so fast that putting would be almost im- possible. It may be a little early to start bragging about Washing.on's Win- ter golfing climate, but so far this Win- ter it has been ideal. Why go to Pine- hurst, or Augusta or even further South when the midday temperature is up in the 60s? Why go anywhere but out on your own golf course when conditions are so perfect as they have been lately? We are sure to have more real Winter, but it cannot be so long now. The history of Washingion Winters is that February is a good golf month and March furnishes fine weather. barring the winds that usually accompany the third month of the year. And by the way, have you noticed the almost com- | plete absence of wind this Winter? 1In every sense of the word, the last three weeks or so have becn perfect for play- | ing g~lIf. Why go anvwhere else than Washington to play your golf? ND have the golfers flocked to play? By the thousands, literally, every wesk end and every day during the week. It would be no exaggeration to oy that, depression or no depression, there hes en as much golf played around Washington this year as in the bocm years of the previous decade. Everr club has its ‘“regulars” who play golf every day if the game is at all ssible. But more and more these fine ays the clubs have been seeing the spasmodic golfers—those who come out only occasionallv—being transformed into regulars. The weather brings 'em out, and what weather it has been. A little sogey under foot, but so mild over- head that it brings back memories of sunny days in Carolina, Georgia and even Florida, without the heat of the latter State in Winter. As a Winter resort, Washington comes fairly close to taking rank with your better known and better advertised places. UST to show how many folks go for this Midwinter golf, there were more than 125 registrations for golf yesterday at Beaver Dam, and 80 people played in the blind bogey event staged by Cliff Spencer, the club pro. Four tied for first place, with net cards of 77. They were: Eugene Fly, 102—25—77; Martin F. McCarthy, 83—6—77; H. G. Gibson, 107—30—77, and Mrs. Gertrude Strong, 132—55—77. All the other clubs had large turn-outs, despite an early morning fog which hung over Washing- ton until midafternoon. Over at Indian Spring Dr. L. S. Otell, the club champion, holed a mashie nib- lick shot for an eagle deuce on the par 4 fourth hole. The hole plays about 340 yards from the tee now in use. Larry hit a long tee shot up the middle and itched to the green. He found the ErE RS ANAGERS at Rock Creek and East Potomac Parks reported registra- ttions neared the peak of Midwin- ter play. More than 400 used the Rock Creek Park courses, while nearly 700 used the four layouts in East Potomac Park. Over at Washington, the golfers who play bridge are getting ready for the club team bridge championship, which will start next Wednesday at 8 o'clock. Eight pairs are to qualify for the finals, which will be played at duplicate, with the first session to be held on Monday, January 30. Cups will be awarded to each member of the championship pair and to the runners-up. The tourney will be run off by a committee composed of D. C. Gruver, chairman; A. B. Galt, | E. P. Brooke and O. L. Veerhoff. RING, TRACK RATED SAME. Virtually all schools in the Southern Conference rank boxing and track about on par as their third rating sport, fol- lowing foot ball and basket ball.

'HE pitch shot, ranging from 50 to 125 yards, or on occasion even longer, is a shot that great numbers of players never master. I know a man in this category. He has so little faith in his pitch shot that he actually employs a spoon when playing a 115-yard hole on his course. Believe it or not, he is al- most always on the green. And once he made a hole-in-one! Here is the funny thing in con- nection with this shot.

But when he. uses his mashie or mashie niblick he changes his swing completely. Practicing the pitch shot is wise for the beginner. If it is , it keeps you out of traps an er hazards—at least most of the time. Pitching is based on two methods. One is to hit the ball on the down- swing, taking a divot in front of it; the other is to pick the ball up clean, although, in hitting it, the clubhead brushes through the turf. For the former you play the ball further back than usual. For pitching, ths stroke is com- pact.

By the Associated Press. EW YORK, January 23.—Penn's ace-setting Quakers return to Eastern intercollegiate basket ball league action this week well aware that they can afford few slips if they hope to dethrone the Champlon Princeton Tigers. While the Quakers were occupying themselves with non-league competition, Princeton returned to form and swamp- ed both Columbia and Dartmouth, to gain a tie for second place. The Tigers, beating Columbia, 49-29, and Dart- mouth, 40-25, seemed to have recovered completely from the slump that cost them their first league game with Penn. Columbia came back from its trounc- ing at Princeton’s hands to nose out Cornell, 37-36 on Saturday night, and thus tied the Tigers for second place. Each has won two games and lost one. Penn, victorious over Princeton and Dartmouth in its first two_tests, in- vades New Haven to battle Yale Tues- day night and expects to win comfor! ably. The Quakers' clever passing at- tack and accurate shooting has ovel come seven opponents in a row this season, and Yale, in view of its 29-23 | beating by Dartmouth a week ago, docs | not seem to pack the stuff to stop them. The only other game on this week’s schedule sends Yale against Cornell at Ithaca Saturday night. Cornell has lost three successive league games, but will be conceded at least an even chance of halting the Elis. ‘The standings, to date: Points Points t. For.

E doubt if any anglers have recently ventured forth in quest of the large-mouth black bass. If they have Rod and Stream has re- ceived no reports from them. Instead of telling you what fish have been caught, today we are discussing what you may expect to catch during the next season in waters adjacent to the Natiomal Capital. We are giving the names of these fishes with the hope they will be called by the names by which they are known to the most anglers. On e trip across Chesapeake Bay last season the natives at one place called the hardhead the crocus. Not |one angler in a thousand knows or calls fish by that name. It is known as the croaker or and should so_be called. It is just such mistakes as this that we want to correct. A brook trout should be called a brook trout, no matter in what part of the country it is caught, and a trout landed in salt water should be called & weakfish, sea trout or squeteague, and not just a trout. NGLERS know that the 1933 fish- ing season opens April 1. At this time Maryland and Virginia start their seasons on the members of the trout family, the brook trout, rainbow trout and brown trout, and West Vir- ginia and Penpsylvania open their sea- sons on these fish April 15. The brook trout, also known as speckled trout and mountain trout, should be called the brook trout. This fish is distributed from Maine to Geor- gla and westward to the Pacific Coast, and in Canada from Labrador to the Saskatchewan. It is a fresh-water fish with wonderful fighting ability. It feeds on angle worms, flies and min- nows. It is of excellent food value and much sought by the anglers. The rainbow trout, also known as the coast range trout, is found in the Northern States and westward to the mountain streams of the coast ranges of the Pacific States. It also is & fresh water fish and every inch a 1t is an excellent table fish grasshoppers, trout and European brook trout, is a native of Europe transplanted in Amer- ica. It is found in the Northeastern mn of the United States, particularly New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and the Middle Atlantic section.

It is the same treatment of aeration of the soil which the greenskeeper in the Summer obtains only in & meas- ure with spiked rollers, and at a considerable labor cost. Soil aeration is essential to the growth of the turf, as it breaks up the clay which bakes into bricklike condition during the heated spell and prevents both air and molsture getting to the roots of the grass. LA BARBA FAVORED 70 0UTBOX BRITON Watson, Only Feather Champ of Island Here in 23 Years, Unimpressive. By the Associated Press. EW YORK, January 23—First British feather champion in 23 years to try his luck in an American ring, Seaman Watson will battle Fidel La Barba in a 12-round bout in Madison Square Garden Friday night. | To the winner will go a title match | | in February with Kid Chocolate, Cuban | Negro, recognized by the New York | State Athletic Commission as world's | 126-pound champion. | Unlike his immediate British prede- | cessor, Jem Driscoll. who outpointed | Abe Attell at the old National A. C., | February 19, 1910, Watson is conceded | little chance of beating La Barba. The Californian is one of the game's great- | |est featherweights and probably will enter the ring a favorite at odds of at least 2 to 1. La Barba gave Chocolate a smashing battle here a few weeks ago and is anxious for another “shot” at the disputed title. Watson looked none too impressive when he boxed three local preliminary boys here a few days ago in a public test ‘Ul'dertd by the State Commission before | it would ‘approve his appearance in a | main bout at the Garden.

It belongs to the | sunfish family. This fish takes bait very readily and is particularly fond of small minnows. It is an excellent table fish and preferred by many to the larger bass. Another member of the sunfish fam- ily is the rock bass, sometimes called the red-eye, goggle-eye, warmouth and rock sunfish. It is a wonderful pan fish and is found from Vermont to | Manitoba and South to Louisiana and | Texas. It is a strictly fresh water fish with plenty of action in a pinch. It geieds on minnows, worms, insects and les. Then comes the white perch, which is in a class by itself, for there is no other known name for it. It belongs to the sea bass family. a fresh and salt water game fish, and can be found on the At- lantic Coast of America from the Caro- linas to the Gulf of St. Lawrence. This fish feeds on angle worms, grasshop- pers, minnows, fiies, shrimp and crabs. The yellow perch belongs to the perch family. It also is known as the | American perch, ringed perch, raccoon perch, river perch, striped perch and zebra perch. How much better it would be if everybody called it by the name of yellow perch. We think the majority do, but all should. It is a fine pan fish, the meat being solid and sweet. It is found in all fresh-water streams and is a favorite with the women and children. This fish feeds on minnows and ‘angle worms. OW we come to the fishes to be found in nearby salt-water fish- ing grounds. Perhaps first and foremost comes the rockfish or striped bass. This fish is distributed on our Atlantic Coast from Florida to the St. Lawrence and is quite abundant on the Pacific Coast. These gamesters ascend fresh-water streams in the Spring to deposit their spawn, and local anglers catch them in the swift waters of the Potomac around Chain Bridge, varying in weight from the pan to fish tipping the scales at 20 or more. It feeds on small eels, D, bloodworms, peeler crab, clams, men- haden and herring. The bluefish, known as snapping mackerel, fatback, snaj fish from Florida SPORTS.
