FOUR. KEPTICS of the sportin world who stuck to th maxim, “they never com « back,” discovered last yeal that they do. Indeed they do! Old Strangler Lewis had ‘em g e e r groggy when he mustered enough vim and vigor to win the wrestl- ing title for the sixth time. Rab- bit Maranville continued to poke | a mean bat under their noses and wave it unerringly to further blast | that maxim to bits. And three | gold cup boats, supposedly obso- | lete, continued to splash their spray hither and yon to make the skeptics entirely all wet. Those three boats—Delphine 1V, a Horace Elgin Dodge product; El Lagarto, George Rels' vet- eran racer, and Hotsy Totsy, Vic Kleisrath's old “crate"—&id more than merely foo the 1 never-come- back skeptics. They completely fooled, as they did also in 1931 and America's naval architects. And when 1930, leading the President’s Cup re- gatta rolls around this September| Washington may witness a_convinc- | ing and final argu- | ment between pro- Ponents of the single step and multiple step hydroplane. There is a little story to this battle ©f theories and few yachtsmen know it better than L. Gordon Leech, chairman of the Racing Committee of the Presi- dent’s Cup regatta. Let Leech tell it: “A few years ago marine authorities &nd naval architects became convinced the new single step principle of hull design would so far surpass Gold Cup boats with the antiquated V-bottom dis- placement hulls that it would be neces- sary for owners of the old craft to re- build in order to keep abreast of the | times. “Vic Kleisrath, however, had other | fdeas. He brought his venerable Hotsy ‘Totsy out of retircment, ‘dusted her off, and installed shallow steps called shingles. That was in 1930. With the Hotsy Totsy he then proceeded to Startle everybody by winning the Gold Cup, National Sweepstakes, President’s Cup and Chesapeake free-for-all, “Then George Reis of Lake George, N. Y, who owned a new single step creation called El Lagartito, decided to experiment with an old runabout, Miss Mary, which previously had been & decided flop. He also installed shingles and so consistently did Miss Mary, re- hamed El Lagarto, outrun the new boat that he docked the latter and entered the 9-year. That boat won the 1931 President's Cup. “Perhaps the man most ‘sold” shingles,” Leech continues, *“is Botl!} -old El Lagarto, | | The sight of veterans-“coming back” always is a grand sporting spectacle, | | and this is what may be in store for Capital yachting enthuslasts in the nnnunlf President’s Cup Regatta, September 29-30, on the Washington Channel. | } Above is Horace Dodge’s Delphine 1V, formerly the old Solar Plexus.

'C. & P. Power Boat Association Big Factor in Yachting Here| This is_the fifth of a series of weekly sketches om Washington aquatic clubs and organizations. I ington yacht and boat clubs, the Chesapeake and Potomac Power Boat Association renders in- valuable aid in the promotion of competitive water sports in this sec- tor of the boating world. Among the purposes of the Chesa- peake and Potomac Power Boat As- sociation is to impress the residents and citizens of their territorial waters of the value of beautifying the water fronts, to arrange and assist in the general plans of regattas held in this district, to create 'and stimulate in- terest in motor boating in the gen- eral public, to develop drivers for motor boat racing, and to interpret and enforce the racing rules of the National Racing Commission and the aims and policies of the American Power Boat Association, with which this organization is affliated. ‘The Chesapeake and Potomac As- sociation, in co-operation with the Corinthian Yacht Club, is sponsoring the President’s Cup Regatta Septem- ber 29 and 30 on the Washington Channel. Present officers of this association are Edward C. Baltz, commodore; William C. Shelton, vice commodore; L. Gordon Leech, rear commodore, and J. A. Anadale, secretary-treas- urer.

He said this the Leonardtown market has been flooded with these small crabs. This is something that the Conservation De- partment of Maryland ‘certainly should look into and have corrected.

The best fishing at the present time | is across the bay around Tilghmans | Island, Sharps Island, Poplar Island and Bloody Point Light, located at the entrance to Eastern Bay. Last Monday afternoon Dr. M. D'Arcy | Magee, William McK. Stowell and Wil- | bur Leach joined the writer on a fish- | ing trip to Tilghmans Island. We were | the guests of the Tilghman Guides’ As- | sociation, and what a trip we had!| At Annapolis we were joined by Francis | P. Heithiser of the Claiborne-An- | napolis Ferry Co., and at Tilghmans Island we found George Harrison, sec- | retary of the guides’ association, nwnit-i ing us. We boarded a fine boat for our fishing trip, and on which four| captains of the association greeted us.| Just as soon as a lot of good things - to eat and a case of Baltimore beer had been placed on the boat we started to the fishing grounds. Our captain anchored off Cooks Point. We fished from about 6 to 8 pm. and landed 150 hardheads, nothing else, except 3 or 4 toads. I think our catch must have numbered 175 fish, because 1 know at least 25 small heardheads were returned to the water, and they were not s0 small either. The fish were biting just as well when we stopped fishing as they did when we started, and the only reason we quit was on account of an approaching storm. Many a time two big hardheads were brought to the surface by different anglers, and I honestly think we would had not been compelled to quit. I never have seen fish more eager to take bait. We stopped overnight at the Rod and Reel House, and found it to be one of the most delightful places on the island, everything im- maculately clean, comfortable beds and good cooking. All of the members of our party said it was one of the best fishing trips they ever had made. Capt. Ed Garvin of Tilghmans in- formed us last week that he has been catching a barrel to a barrel and a half of fish on each of his recent trips and that Capt. Levin 8. Harrison, jr., also had been past week. Local members of the Izaak Walton League will be glad to learn that the Guides’ Association at Tilghmans Is- |land has formed a local chapter of the /I W. L.

Cragg at Galesville, Md., in his report last week said that he found the Bay on its best behavior and —_— | only six. Last Saturday, fishing at the | same hour, four of us caught 100 in | | the short time of one and one-half | | hours. “In your article last Sunday you stated that there seems to be a common belief that fish can't be caught during a northeast wind, but that it was not your belief. You are right, because our 100 fish were caught during a north- east wind. Another reason why some | anglers are in disagreement with you is because you will publish reports | of large catches being made in certain places and when they go out the follow- | ing week nothing is caught. The rea- | son for this, I believe, is the tidal con- | ditions. My own experience, during the | me that last Sunday a party landed | Ralph Donald, Emory Roland, Douglas past three weeks especially, as well as | 67 big hardheads fishing from the shore. | MacDonald and Steve Sambaco and the past few years, bears me out on this. | Tides are almost exactly opposite at | weekly intervals and what is good fish- | ing time on a certain day—and, after | all, most people are in the mood to fish | usually in the afternoon—is a bad time a week later. “My fishing was done—that is, when best results were obtained—during slack | water after high tide and in the eve- | ning. When the force of the ebb tide began to set in fish stopped biting, so | we left for our mooring in Herring Bay.” } EORGE M. GREEN, another read- | er of Rod and Stream, contributes | the following: “On Saturday, | June 10, a party of nine, consisting of Phil Atterberry, J. F. Dayton, Gerald Baum, C. E. Church, F. L. Roney, R.
