Shoreham S. C. el e SETTER IS IN LEAD FOR NATIONAL TITLE Sturdy Max Faces Plenty of Late Opposition for Pure-Bred Dog Championship. TEW YORK, N. Y. June 15— Champion Sturdy Max, an Eng- | lish setter, leads the race for Amer- jca's national pure-bred dog cham- pionship, according to the latest fig- ures on the Variety Group Prize, an- nounced by the American Kennel Club, governing body of the sport. This prize is for the American- bred specimen, of any breed, winning the greatest number of best-in-group honors during 1935. The winner will be regarded as the leading American- bred dog of ,the United States, for the prizes are being offered at A. K. C. member club shows in every part of the country. So far there have been 101 group prizes, won by 83 dogs, owned by 67 different exhibitors. A total of $2,825 has been paid by the A. K. C. to the group winners. Champion Sturdy Max has won the gun dog group four times. His lead- ership should be challenged seriously during the second third of the year, which has. a very full calendar of shows. Such dogs as the Russian wolfhound, Champion Vigow of Ro- manoff; the Irish setter, Champion Milson O'Boy, and the wire, Cham- plon Leading Lady of Wildoaks, now are rolling up victories in rapid or- der, and may overhaul the English setter, 20 Years Ago IN THE STAR TH!

Like the Dobermann Pinscher, the German Shepherd and the Reissen Schnauzer, the Boxer was bred and developed as a police dog and watch dog. With his heavy, powerful body, ap- | proaching irf”size that of the Great | Dane, and his bulldoglike head, he is a tough-looking customer. His ancestry, the bulldog and the bull terrier, would indicate that he could be depended on in a fight. But the same ancestry is good indication, too, that he is a loving, faithful guar- dian for his master and his friends. In color, the Boxer generally is fawn or brindle. His body is compact, pow- erful and yet graceful in outline. His | legs are straight and strong looking. His feet are catlike. His head is square, with domed skull and strong muzzle. He does not have as much lay | back as the bulldog. but his muzzle is | shorter than that of the bull terrier. His ears are erect. | THE American Kennel Club, from figures cbtained from all over the country, estimates that there is a total of $75,000,000 invested in the 5,000 kennels registered with that body. This does not take into account the 5,000 or more kennels not registered. Thirty-five million dollars of that amount is invested in buildings and equipment, the remainder is the value of the estimated 400,000 registered and registerable dogs. These figures alone put dogs a very close third to the cattle and horse breeding industries. Could one compile statistics for all the unregistered kennels and one and two dog bréeders, the total would be even more impressive and the dog- breeding business might be seen to sur- pass in dollar value. that of other live stock breeding. g The value of the dog long has been acknowledged by practical people in all walks of life and now is beginning to awake to that fact. There is a bill before the. House of Representatives which would give to the dogs of the blind the right to stay with their masters in all hotels, restaurants and public buildings in the District and in all common carriers engaged in interstate traffic.

LONG about the time Lewis Carlisie of East Islip, Long Island, took the third ducking in the Shrine Regatta last Sunday you probably were asking yourself why these outboard drivers take so many chances to win cups, beautiful as they are, that aren’t even compensation for the gas consumed during the course of a race by the little polo ponies of the water. ‘Why do outboard drivers come from hundreds of miles around to speed their craft over the water, taking more risks in the running of a single race than most of us take during the course of a year? Why does Sam Crooks, Rutgers University speedster, load five bullet-shaped outboards on & truck and head for every regatta with- in driving distance? If you've ever bounced along the water at about 40 miles an hour in one of the broncos you know the answer, and to you the risks taken by these aquatic addicts do not seem so foolish. Steady nerves, strong hands, a powerful motor, tricky tactics, a streamlined boat that can take plenty of punishment, and a goodly portion of lady luck make the winners in the outboard racing game, and to those fortunate enough to compete there's nothing like piloting a winner past the finish line, Ne Sport for Weak Hearts. me hearts have no place in front of those four-cylinder motors, for in choppy water it is just as safe to kiss a traveling torpedo as to ride the waves in one of the flying peanut shells. A strong hand on the stick is as essential as gasoline in the tank. Could you enjoy trying to right a boat which has been thrown com- pletely out of the water and is pointing its nose almost perpendicularly to- ward the sun? It's the city slicker's chance to get as much of a thrill in mastering those stubborn boats as a cowboy gets in sticking to a bronco. If you feel like flirting with Qoat- ing dynamite and at the same ‘time want to get a real kick out of living, take up outboard racing . . . vhere’s no thrill quite like it. Potomacs in Regatia.

I suppose if poor old Maxie wants s fight with one of our ticks may influence that, but the ad- vantages of Summer puppies are so many that they should far outweigh the fear of ticks. The Summer puppy can be reared with far less effort than the Fall or Winter one, can spend most of his time outdoors and therefore can be far more easily housetrained. Further- more, he requires no cod liver oil, nor other sunshine substitutes, needs no special care in the matter of exer- cise and associates with his children all day instead of in snatches and both derive great pleasure therefrom.

When I did realize it, and when the crowd realized | it, the first sensation was one of sur- prise and joy. Then came a feeling that it was too bad. Braddock wasn't proving much by beating a man who ml;‘ldn't fight or couldn't fight, or UT James did receive ome tribute that enhances his prestige considerably. It came from Baer. The first speech I heard Max make s he left the ring was not about his damaged hands, but about his oppo- nent. - “He's pretty tough,” muttered the butcher boy incoherently. “I can lick him, but he’s tough.” * Afterwards Mr. Baer lapsed into his | old vein and began making dafly statements right and left. “I'm going to quit and raise white- faced cattle,” he said. Nobody be- leved him, not even Ancil Hoffman. Then: “I'm just a bum fighter. That explains it. I always was a bum fighter. I'm not worrying. Buddy will bring the title back to the family. He can lick Braddock right now.” ‘That's up to Buddy, of course. As for Max, he may get in your hair from time to time. He may talk you blue in the face. He may clown and pose and prattle, but he still has the best punch in the industry and the most colorful of all ring styles. In the meantime, long live Jimmy Braddock.

As one angler remarked, “You can dip your hands in the water and pick up these fish, they are so numerous.” The hardhead are striking from Southwest Middles all the way up the bey to Annapolis.” Following the rains of last week, the Potomac changed its method of procedure and remained clear. It was & little cloudy Thursday morning, but this condition cleared quickly and the river is in fine shape for the anglers today. Joe Fletcher informs us that many rockfish are being caught above Chain Bridge, in what is known as Turkey Foot, located just below Big Eddy. Early Priday morning, one angler caught 10 fockfish weighing 14 and 2 pounds, and others were landed last week weighing from 4 to 6% pounds. Joe also said that many catfish are being caught, but few bass are being landed, YISTIRDAY marked the opening of the bass season in Virginia east of the Blue Ridge Mountains. West of the mountains the season does not open until July 1. A rumor was circulated that the trout season in Virginia closed on June 15. Secretary Hart of the Commis- sion of Game and Inland Pisheries of Virginia informed the Bureau of Fish- erfes that no such regulation was pro- mulgated by the commission and that the season closes on this species of fish June 30. Virginia requires s fishing license either in tidewater or above tide- water. These licenses may be obtained at the Atlas Sports Goods Store, 927 D street, or from the American Auto- mobile Association, Seventeenth street and Pennsylvania avenue. The cost of a non-resident license is $5, or a tourist license may be obtained for $2 for one day's fishing. 7THE Tidal Basin also was opened yesterday to the anglers. This body of water contains many large- mouth bass, crappie, catfish and other species. According to C. M. Capper, who has the concession at the Tidal Basin Boathouse, and who has kept a close watch on the fish that each Spring appear around the float to nib- ble at the fringe of moss just under | the water line, there are many bass in the basin. This place is a delight to the youth of the city, who can sit on the seawall and catch sunfish in large numbers. There is no license required to fish anywhere in District waters. N SALT water the fishing season started in earnest last week and | good reports reached us from prac- | tically all fishing grounds with the | possible exception of the lower Po- tomac. Capt. Harry Woodburn at Solomons | Island informs us that hardheads are being caught in Chesapeake Bay be- | tween Cedar Point and Cove Point | lights. As a matter of fact, the last | {ew days the Bay was almost a fisher- man's paradise. Capt. Woodburn said | all of the boats were returning with | catches of from 75 to 100. He said these fish were landed not only in the | bay, but in the Patuxent River off the island near the Standard Oil boats and the old liners. He also said there are a number of | row boats for hire at the island and | that many people who are rowing just | a little distance off shore are having | the time of their lives landing bard- | heads. He reports a party of anglers from | Rockville landed 130 hardhead and | several good size sea trout, the largest | trout weighing 4'2 pounds, and that | Judge Graham and family of this city | landed a big washtub full of croakers. Farther up the Patuxent around ! Broomes Island, Capt. Warren Denton reports plenty of hardhead being caught. These fish also are being | caught off Sheridans point and Ben- | edict. APT. W. W. WOODWARD at Ken- | wood Beach also sends in a good | report from the Gooses. He said that | all boats are filling up with hardhead | and that if a boat fishing during the day makes a good catch, it will double the number during the early evening and after dark. Capt. Noah Hazzard at Galesville, West River, was most encouraging in his report about fishing. He said it was just e question of how many fish the anglers wanted to take home with them. Hundreds of hardhead are being caught around Nigger Head Buoy and between this buoy and Franklin Manor. Capt. Hazzard informs us that his father-in-law while fishing one eve- ning last week from a row boat, just a little distance off shore, landed 40 hardhead and used only six crabs to get his catch. This well known cap- tain said some of the boats are re- turning with as many as 250 hard- head. Capt. Hazzard has three good boats to take fishing parties any- where in the Bay on either side. ANOTH‘IR good report from the same vicinity reaches us from Bob Birchett, who caters to the wants of FISHING TACKLE BLOOD WORMS SHRIMP THIS WEEK’S SPECIAL LIFE PRESERVER, CUSHION TYPE, PRIME JAVA KAPOK 1212 11th St. S.E.

Capt. Birchett told | us that as the afternoon advances the fish get larger. ' George Knight at Leonardtown, Md., gave us the only rather discouraging report received last week. He said fishing was not very good in the lower Potomac. However, this report was received last Thursday, and two good hot days have intervened since. This week the hardhead may be striking in the Potomac the same as in the Bay and Patuxent. Knight said, however, that late Sunday while fishing off Ragged Point Light on the Virginia side, directly opposite Tall Timbers, | & party of anglers landed some hard- head, several sea trout, spot and white perch. ASBT Wednesday we fished on Southwest Middles. This was our second visit to these grounds this Spring. On the first trip we never | got @ strike or saw & blue. On the second visit we not only saw plenty of blues breaking water, but our party succeeded in landing some weighing | from 2% to 4!, pounds. On this trip we were the guest of Dr. Alfred Bou, who considers Southwest Middles the best fishing grounds in the Bay. Others in the party were Dr. H. J. Goldman of St. Louis, Mo., and Dr. M. D'Arcy Magee, president of the local chapter of the Izaak Walton League. Capt. Raub Drury was our captain and guide, and he told us that for the last week or 10 days the boats visiting these grounds have been re- turning with catches of anywhere from 12 to 37 of these gamesters. We now can say that the bluefish are on these grounds. There are plenty of good boat captains in St. Jeromes Creek, among them being Capt. Raub Drury and his son, Capt. Claud Mc- Kay, Capt. Brady McKay, Capt. Taft Tibbetts and Capt. Clff Willoughby and his son Clark. E ARE more convinced than ever that blue fishing is over until this Fall down at Oregon Inlet. Capt. L. L. Midgett writes us saying that not many blues are being caught at this time, but there are planty of channel bass and last week numerous mackerel made their appearance. A. H. G. Mears at Wachapreague, Va., informs us that sea trout or weaks are striking good down his way and that the June average for these fish is much above former years. He said the boats are returning with catches of from 24 to 40 a day, a good percentage of them weighing from 5 to 8 pounds. The largest catch of channel bass to a boat last week was six. James D. Jarman at Ocean City. Md, tells us that fishing is excellent of this resort. Blues are going strong, with kingfish biting fine along the surf and from the pier. Channel bass are furnishing great sport at Fox Hill Levels, located about 15 miles below the city. Some of the best catches at Ocean City last week were reported by the following captains: Capt. Crawford | Savage. 75 blues; Capt. John Mum- | ford, 100 blues; Capt. 8. C. Carpenter, 75 of these gamesters, and others landing from 30 to 55 blues. Many fishing parties are selling part of their catch at the dock. These fish are bringing 15 cents a pound, and after paying for their boats a few anglers make a little extra money. Jarman also informs us that Irwin S. Munford, jr., of Ocean City landed the first tuna of the season, a 25- pounder. He lost another, as his tackle was too light, the fish breaking his line, GAINS MARY BROWNE CUP.

He | did well enough in putting at Oak- | mont and his loss there was due to slack iron play. However, Thomson will improve with his irons. He has progressed marvelously during the past two years as a driver. Of course, he always could hit the ball a mile, but his accuracy is a relatively recent development. When Thomson per- fects his iron play he will have better equipment than any golfer playing { today.” Is a Great Showman. wTHE broad-shouldered boy who was | born at North Berwick, Scotland, | 26 years ago, was the show of the | open championship. His tremendous | drives won him a huge gallery and he would have held a crowd even had he been out of the running. Thomson is golf's greatest showman today. An illustration of his powc was given on the long 621-yara twelfth hole. On the first round Jim- my was in front of the green and less | than 10 yards away with two wooden | shots. On another round he was hole | high in a trap after two blasts, Thomson is the fellow who has set- tled all arguments as to who is the world’s longest driver and how far a golf ball can be hit. | TEXAS DOES ITS BIT.
