Snark, holder of the world record for 642 furlongs in 1:154%, finished the mile in 1:3745, brilliant time over & muddy track. He was two lengths ahead of Green- tree Stable's Memory Book at the fin- ish and paid odds of 10 to 1 to win. The favorite, Hal Price Headley's ‘Whopper, was third in the fleld of eight, a length and a half behind Memory Book. h AEMERE FARM'S Maeriel took | fourth money, trailed by Sergt. Byrne, Bill Farnsworth, Count Arthur and White Cockade. Snark, a 4-vear-old, was rated off the pace and assumed the lead in the stretch when the front-running Bill Farnsworth faded.

THE SUNDAY [SPO-VTH Y ASalaudua FIRST RACE—ARAHO LASS, SURE CLOUD, SHRED. In this half-mile sprint ARAHO LASS looks like a safe bet. The O'Hara filly has shown more than anything else in this race. SECOND RACE — CHATATUGA, HIGH TORQUE, CHAR- WITCH. The mare CHATATUGA has shown excellent speed during her trials. She is sharpened up now and can beat these cheap sprinte ers. HIGH TORQUE is good at this distance and will be close up all the way. THIRD RACE———SUN CELERINA, GALLANT PAT, TARTARUS. SUN CELERINA has been brought back to the races in great condition. The Sun Briar filly should be able to graduate from the maiden ranks. Phil Bieber has GALLANT PAT going well. FPOURTH RACE — JOHN WER- RING, DISTRACT, PHARA- TIME. A few days ago JOHN WER- stablemate the other day. but he will be pushed to top speed here and can trim this field. BUSTER BOY is showing good form. SIXTH RACE—CASCAPEDIA, BRENDARD, DON GUZMAN. The featured number, a 1 1/16- mile test, gives CASCAPEDIA all the best of it. He finished very fast in a race of this distance last weck and needs only to repeat that effort. BRENDARD will be a threat. SEVENTH RACE—BELOW COST, DIVERTING, REGARDLESS. BELOW COST loves this route and the gelding should add this number to his list. He carries a lot of weight but should last long enough to win. EIGHTH RACE-—LAST RO- KINDRED SPIRIT, ME. In her race the other day, LAST ROMANCE was off to a very poor start and had no chance, even though making up a lot of ground. She only needs heads-up handling RING turned in s fine effort over this 6-furlong distance. The geld- ing needed that race for a tight- ener and this sprint will find him at his best. DISTRACT will be the one to watch. FIFTH RACE —ERIN TORCH, BUSTER BOY, MY COLIN. ERIN TORCH was not hard rid- den in finishing second to his here to win. KINDRED SPIRIT may cause trouble. b SERVATIVE, CONSERVATIVE has been run- ning well up in recent starts and 1s due for a winning effort. If this substitute race is used, the filly should walk off with nrst money.

By GtorGE £ Huser - HE fishing season now is offi- ctally open, your correspondent | having gone out and caught himself a mess of hardhead. Leaving early with Ollie Atlas, Fred E. Kunkel and Harry Cohen, we drove down to Solo- mons in the wee sma’ hours, roused Capt. Edgar Bowen out of bed and piled into the Shirley Temple for the long trip across the bay. We reached the beautiful Eastern Shore section just after sun-up, threaded our way through the tortuous narrows, past Hooper Island and under the drawbridge and were all ready to fish in the Honga River on the first tide. a little less than two hours after | leaving Solomons. The very shallow | waters of the Honga offer fine hard- head fishing in the early part of the season. The water is somewhat warmer than out in the bay, and there is plenty of food to put the early risers in the hardhead family in & biting frame of mind. Our catch was fairly small because of the high winds which whipped the river into a mass of foam, but we did bring back 54 hardhead, and one each of trout, perch and kingfish, Those which did bite bit well and strong, although the heads of some of them were covered with mud, showing that they had been burrowing in the bottom for food. For bait we used shrimp and peeler crab, and after paying the murderous price of 90 cents a dozen for peelers found that shrimp were by far the better bait. First Herring Bay Catch. 'HE whole Chesapeake Bay area is opening up with hardhead fish- ing, although the inlets and bays on the Eastern Shore will continue to be the best grounds for the next two or three weeks. The first catch reported this season from Herring Bay was made by Dr. and Mrs. Shannon Butts. Drift fishing from their boat, the Shandere, the picked up 10 big hard- head last week. These were caught using two crabs for bait, and had they had more bait they could have caught many more, Mrs. Butts tells us. ‘The Patuxent River also has yielded some fairish catches recently, accord- ing to Capt. P. C. Henderson of Benedict. Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Allen, Mr. and Mrs. R. O. Brownell and Mr. and Mrs. Gene Edwards fishing with Capt. Welch caught 18 in little over an hour recently, all of which ran to good size. Several other catches have been made from rowboats in the river near Benedict. Both power and rowboats are avail- able there. There are about 25 power boats which can be chartered for $5 for five hours up to five persons, & slight extra charge for more than that. Rowboats, of which there are more than 100 operated by Capts.

Fish Tales Tomorrow Night. MORROW night fishing funsters will have a field day at the third monthly meeting of the Hook, Line and Sinker Club, to be held in the bamboo room of the Willard Hotel at 8 o'clock. Membership in the club is obtained by sending in two humorous or imagination-stretching fish stories annually, but you do not have to be | & member to attend. All anglers in and around Washington interested in having a little fun are invited. Dr. Allen Stockdale, outstanding angler, public speaker and former professional base ball player, will dis- course on “Pishing for Laughs,” and prize-winning stories for the month will be read for the benefit of those attending the solemn gathering. And once again Fred Orsinger, director of the Bureau of Fisheries’ aquarium in the Commerce Department, will put on his dead pan act, and in all serious- ness tell some outlandish fish tale, which he will swear is true. Orsinger also will have with him a few curios from the aquarium, among them the neon fish, with red and blue lights on each side. He also plans to bring a tail-light fish and telescope fish, which has eyes in the top of its head. Following the psuedo-serious business meeting, & buffet supper and beer will be served, admission to the fray being 75 ocents.
