SPORTS. TEFO0T COMETS | BECOMING VOGUE Potomac River Association Membership Makes Big Advance in Year. BY E. A. FULLER. NE of the most striking fe: tures of the ever-increasing expansion in aquatic activities hereabout is the rapidity with which the sailing game is developing. Until season there was little sustained interest in this phase of boating, but under the sponsorship of the Potomac River Sailing Association it has become the rage just now among & large part of the city’s water-minded population. Some believe the increase in interest in sail boating is evidence of better times, proof that many of our aquatic| | enthusiasts feel they can afford the| comparatively moderate outlay required to enter the sailing game. It is believed also that realization that the Potomac affords sufficient wind for sailing has helped encourage the sport. had thought the wind Lere inadequate for any real sailing. Whatever has caused the sailing game to boom. the fact remains that starting last year with only a handful of boats, the Potomac River Sailing Association fleet now totals close to 50 crilft and is still growing at a lively clip, Comets Introduced. PARTICULARLY interesting late development has been the bring- | ing out of the Comet class boats. Four of these trim little craft now are nearing completion at the Capital Yacht Club and are scheduled to be launched Wednesday. Because they cost comparatively little and are rather simple to construct and yet afford | skippers plenty of sport. Comets are expected to become numerous here shortly. Only 16 feet long with a 5-foot beam, the craft has a jib-headed main- sail containing 123 square feet and the Jib has 27 square feet. The Comets to be launched this week have been built and are owned by D. Verner Smythe, District of Columbia regional vice president of the Comet Class Yacht Racing As- sociation: Maj. H. H.

Twenty-two teams, imagine that, started and when the final was reached it lay between the Washington pairs. Burch and Rutherford trimmed us. Our quartet 8130 won the fours that day, and were | otherwise prominent.” Harry Kmlht once again will carry on in the canoe wars. The popular | veteran, who is not far from 45, is 1n training at the Central Y. M. C. and expects soon to be wielding che ole’ paddle on the river.

The run of herring above Wash- ington is long overdue. An increase in the number of these fish was reported from lower river points early last week, but they have not reached their spawning grounds.

EVERAL days : lgo we motored to Solomons ‘Island to learn about fishing conditions. We visited George and Eddy Bowen and found a hum of activity, fishing boats being vainted and things in general being | put_in condition for the rush of ers. While at Bowen's we met C-pt Nat | Dare, who said that Wednesday morn- | ing he caught in his nets 1,300 pounds of hardheads weighing from 1 to 3 pounds: 29 shad and 1100 her- | ring. Heretofore the commercial fish- ermen had been getting from 150 to 200 pounds of hardheads. Friday morning Capt. Eddy Bowen called to inform us that Capt. Dare had caught 6 tons of hardheads in his nets Within 48 hours these fish advanced with & rush and Capt. Eddy Bowen said from the looks of this catch | the fish are so numerous that he | thinks, perhaps, they could be snagged. In the past seasons, Capt. George | angl ! | ally were hooked in the shallow waters |of Tar Bay, located cn the Eastern Shore, off Hoopers Island, directly | across from the mouth of the Patuxent. He said on account of the depth of the water it was necessary to cast as far | as_possible from the boat, the water | being only from 3 to 5 feet deep. vPerhlm this season the hardheads | have changed their tactics and will be landed first on our side of the bay. Capt. Eddy Bowen took us to see ¢on which the workmen were putting the finishing touches. She is a beauty. All of Capt. Dare's fish were caught between Drum Point and Little Cove Point. We are of the opinion that if some anglers can get among these good catches this week. | iw and Preston Woodburn on | our trip to Solomons. Here we found also a great stir, hammers the sides of boats. We saw one boat tied up at the wharf and found that it was ready to take us out for a try at the hardheads. However, at the last minute we decided it would be a waste of time. A report from Tilghman Island says that no hardheads have yet been caught even in the nets; that the run of herring in the upper part of the Choptank is pretty good, but that few shad are being caught. ARE You 4 BLoe? According to word from A. H. G. Mears at Wachapreague, Va., weather and water conditions are becoming right for fishing.

The hardheads are steadily marching right up the bay. Capt. Noah Hazzard at Galesville, West River, said that he is catching plenty of these fish in his nets. They run from 1 to 4 pounds.
