Until several years ago the grind was over a 3-mile straightaway starting near Chain Bridge. As the contest drew more entrants, however, it was decided to set up a triangular course.

A number of trophies will be in competition this vear, including The Evening Star Cup to be awarded the winning team as a permanent prize The President's Cup to the team finishing first is a perpetual trophy. The race will be broadcast by remote control from a boat following the front swimmers. Twenty-year-old Elwood Woodling, national senior 5-mile champion from the Akron (Ohio) Boys' Club, who won the event last year in the record- breaking time of 1:12:52, is expected to defend his title. Other top-notch swimmers from last year's field ex- pected back are Harry Tresnak of New York, Bill Parmelee of the Lenox Hill A. C. and Peter Woyar, another member of the strong Akron outfit.

That is. until recently. | They never had been fishing in the bay until Friday. Didn't know much about it, but wanted to give it a try, anyway, and reading in this column about several blues caught over by Tilghmans Island recently they head- ed in that direction. And what tackle do you suppose they took with them? Their bass rods and silk line. Their captain told them that their stuffl was too light, but having handled some pretty rouzh bass on it they thought they could take .in a few little salt water fish with ease. Well, here is what hanpened. Troll- ing river runts, good bass plugs, but practically unheard of around blues, Baer got a strike and’ that was all there was to A good dollar plug gone. They saw they would have to do it differently, and on the next strike Baer let the fish have its head. | In exactly 18 minutes of fighting he | had a 5-pound blue in the net Before the day was over he had another blue, a 3-pounder this time, | and had lost another river runt when his line broke. After that experi- | 1 |ence he said bass will seem like carp when he gets back to West Virginia. | At that he did very well, as his tackle | consisted of 10-pound test silk line | and a 6-foot Heddon 600 light rod, | which is a very light stick, even for bass, | In all, the party landed six blues weighing from 2 to 6 pounds, and |lost four plugs on breaking lines. Bluefishing Still Poor. "THE above shows what can be done with light tackle. Personally. your correspondent uses linen line, rather than silk, in salt water; it lasts longer, but the results are the same. Occasionally we lose a lure or two, but we have twice as much i\ cackeTy sport as the fellow who takes a | big stick out and uses it as a crane to do nothing but lift fish from the water. That catch makes two reported from Tilghman's in a week and while both of them were small compared with what should be expected, it does show that they are on their way. It dcesn't mean that the Gooses are teeming with blue, how- ever; far {from it. There have been | several dozen parties seeking Jfight- ing blues over that way recently and two catches out of that many is | a mighty ‘small percentage.

You can be pretty rough with striped bass; they have a tough | mouth and can stand a bit of hors- ing and pulling, but not so with the | weaks.

Long a “must” port' for the cruising skipper, Solomons affords a perfect set-up for power racing, both in the creek and on the Patuxent.
