"Most of HALF THER TILTS ARE INTRALEAGUE Maryland, Expecting Strong | Team, Dates Syracuse and Indiana. BY JOSEPH E. NETTLES, Assoclated Press Staff Writer. ICHMOND, Va. August 2.— Approximately one half of the 95 foot ball games Southern | Conference teams will play| next Fall will be against fces within | the league, with most of the schools | apparently concentrating on a title| bid rather than short cuts to glory | through victories in intersectional | contests. - Most of the teams are staying closer | to home and several of them, notably | Washington and Lee and Clemson, have patterned seemingly easier sched- | ules than their 1934 programs. | Forty-seven intra-league clashes are scheduled—three e more than were played last year—with Virginia Tech'’s Gobblers setting the pace with seven conference games. Washington and Lee, North Carolina, Duke, South | Carolina and Virginia have five league | games scheduled. Maryland, V. M. L | and North Carolina State face four| conference clashes and Clemson will play only three. Champs Face Hard Going. NE month from today the call to practice will ring through the 10 Southern Conference camps, leaving only three weeks of preparation for most teams before embarking on th season’s campaigning. Washington and Lee’s Generals, de- fending champions, although they play only eight games this season— knocking Kentucky, Princeton and Navy off the card and adding Duke and Centre—face tougher going with- in the circuit, with five league games on the program. In addition to Duke the Generals have conference games scheduled with Virginia Teck, Vir- ginia, Maryland and South Carolina. North Carclina, runner-up a year ago, is adding Maryland and Virginia | Military to the list and cutting off Kentucky and Georgia. Other loop games will pit the Tar Heels against North Carolina State, Duke and Vir- ginia. Duke Has Tough Schedule. DUKE has a tough 10-game sched- ule, which includes five confer- ence games and three with Southeast- ern Conference rivals—Georgia Tech, Auburn and Tennessee—but inter- league tilts for most teams will bej less numerous than they were a year ago. Only 10 games are carded with Boutheastern rivals, as against 15 last year. Clemson, dropping Georgia Tech and Kentucky, and North Caro- lina, dropping Kentucky and Georgia, lead in the divorce rate Although intersectional games will be the exception rather than the rule, Maryland's Old Liners, anticipating a strong team, have games booked at Baltimore with Indiana and Syracuse. North Carolina State will pla~ Man- hattan at Brooklyn, and Virginia Mili- tary will battle Columbia at New York. | WALTON LEAGUE IS BUSY Conducts Campaign to Conserve Montgomery Game and Fish. A county-wide campaign in the in- terest of game and fish conservation is being planned for Montgomery County by the Rockville Chapter of the Izaak Walton League. The drive is to be started in Sep- | tember and will be conducted by a committee composed of Dr. E. Russeil Cook of Bethesda, chairman; James R. Berrier, J. Dunbar Stone, Joseph | Fisher, Y. W.

Blues and sea trout now are advancing up the bay and being landed in ever-increasing num- bers in the mouth of the Patuxent River off Solomons Island from Cedar to Cove Point. The blues are re- ported breaking water off Sharps Island to Jefferson Island, a distance of about 10 miles. On a trip to Southwest Middles Wednesday, blues and sea trout were present in large numbers, and to add spice to big strikes from gamesters, several black bonito were hooked, but not landed. Until the trip Wednesday thought we were average anglers, but now we have our doubts. We got 15 consecutive strikes and did not land a fish. others in the party and asked them to try their luck, but the result was aiways the same, they got the strikes but nothing else A little later we landed some good sized sea trout and then found out what had been the trouble. We were getting strikes from big sea trout which we mistook for blues. It is more or less difficult to land sea trous trolling, and you will lose more than you catch. The point we want to bring out is that these yellow-tail gamesters are present on Southwest Middles in large numbers, many | weighing 4, 5 and 6 pounds. In our party Wednesday were Dr. Alfred Bou, Malcolm Major and Bryant Knott. Any one who' has fished on Southwest Middles knows of Bryant Knott, There is not a better salt angler to be found, and, incidentally, we may say that the | other two are almost his equal. This morning, from Capt. George Bowen, we received additional glowing accounts of the number of blues and PerRy these | we We turned our rods over to nis League championship yesterday by | sea trout being landed off Cedar Peint defeating Farm Credit, 4-1.

In Southern States the | season will run from November 20 to December 19. Announcing the regulation with President Roosevelt’s approval, J. N. “Ding” Darling, director of the Bio- logical Survey, said the restrictions ‘ were the only alternative to a closed season because “we've killed more ducks than we've hatched every year for the last 35 years Darling estimated 24,000,000 ducks will fly South this Fall and 12,000,000 . will be killed by hunting or natural i causes. He figured 9.000,000 were killed by hunters last year and the , kill this year would be from 5,000,000 to 6,000,000 But Darling’s program Wwas as- sailed by John H. Baker. executive di- rector of the National Association of Audobon Societies. Have 30-Day ules Are Severe Chief points of the new regilations are: Elimination of sinkboxes, boats and open-water shooting. sneak Prohibition of shooting over batted | water or land. Prohibiting of live decoys. Elimination of zoning by States and the substitution of two zones, North- ern and Southern. Restriction of shooting to the hours between 7 a.m. and 4 p.m. Reduction of some bag limits. Making illegal the -possession of more than one day’s bag. The three-shell limit placed on auto- loading and repeating shotguns takes effect this Fall, and regulations pro- vide that hunters may use a shotgun only, not larger than No. 10 gauge. No open season will be allowed on wood ducks, buffiehead ducks, Ross’ geese or swan, and shooting of snow geese will be permitted in Florida or in States north o° Florida bordering on the Atlantic Ocean. The prohibi- tion against brant hunting in the East has been removed. The daily bag limit on ducks will be 10 in the aggregate of all kinds, and the possession limit also will be 10. Bag and possession limits on geese afid brant will be four. The regulations limit the use of a blind, boat or any type floating craft to locations not more than 100 feet from the shoreline. MILLER -\ e — Wednesday night with 200 hardhead sad 18 sea trout. One of the best, if not the best re- port we received came from Dr. Shan- non Butts, who fished in Herring B Wednesday night. He said he landed 40 blues in the bay, and that two other boats hooked 18 and 11 each. Dr. S. M. Angelo takes execption to a recent report about not eatching rockfish in the lower Potomac in any numbers. He recently spent 10 days at Colonial Beach and reports that he fished four times and landed 14, 13, 15 and 16 rockfish, respectively ing in weight from 4 to 13': pounds. There is a chance that the bass anglers will have some good fishing this week end, provided we do not have more thunderstorms. The Shen- andoah River around Riverton, Va., continues muddy, but slowly clearing. The Potomac at Harpers Ferry is muddy, but the Potomac at Great Falls and in the vicinity of Chain Bridge should be in fair condition. Capt. Aubrey Shephard, at Gunston | Cove, says the water still is perfectly | clear and many bass are being caught. VIRGINIA BEACH POLO 70 BEGIN TOMORROW Loudoun-Fauguier Team to Play | War Department Squad in | Resort's First Match. | THE aristocrat of horse sports will be introduced to Virginia’s most fashionable seaside resort tomorrow and Sunday, when teams representing | the Loudoun-Fauquier Polo Associa- | tion and the War Department will | meet on a newly prepared field at Virginia Beach, Va. Adding a new chapter to the ex- tensive sports program of the vaca- tion spot. the polo matches are the first in a series planned at Virginia Beach and Norfolk during the re- mainder of this Summer and in fu- ture seasons. Negotiations for the| contests were conducted by Howard C. Fair ol Warrenton, prominent Vir- ginia horesman and a member of the Loudoun-Fauquier team. Playing with him in the first games will be Gould Shaw, Dick Kirkpatrick and Kenneth Jenkins, with Hubert Phipps as substitute. The War De- partment squad will consist of Lieuts. C. H. Read and George Grunert and Majs. McBride and Lyman. Lieut Gene Harrison will be the substitute. Both games are to be refereed by Gen. Wwilliam Mitchell, U. S. A., retired. 20 YEARS AGO IN THE STAR | | IGHT years ago today Walter Johnson pitched his first game for Washington and at first glance he gave the impression that he had the makings of a great pitcher, although he knew less about field- ing his position than any other pitcher that ever broke in. He lost to the Tigers that day, 3 to 2, giving only six hits, four of which were bunts which he failed to handle. Zeb Milan now is leading the Nats in hitting with a mark of 278, having raised his average during the recent Western trip. “Chick” Gandil showed the great- est improvement, however, lifting his percenfage 39 points to 274, tying Eddie Foster for the next best batting average of the team. Walter Johnson leads the pitchers with 17 victories and 8 losses.
