Sees numerous boats in bay. Rushes eagerly to boathouse and asks "What's doing in stripers?" Gets answer: "You know how bass are?" Replies: "No. How are they?" Is told: "Ain't heard of one caught in ten days. Nice run of snapper blues, though." 5.?Calls M a day and spends night deploring the luek. Starts early next morning for Roaring Rip, 60 miles away, on a report a feller got *v uicc uiics, raugiiif up w oj pounds, a tew day* ago.

New York City, one of the last strongholds of the surface car, an nounces that they will be removed from the streets by January 1. We, for one, feel a little sad, not only to see the trolley car pass from the streets of Gotham but from any other place. It was a symbol of a happier, more philosophical and more comfortable America. m The swifter, more ap to date and less restricted bus has replaced it all over the land, but to as a bos is as satisfactory a substitute (or a 1 trolley as a witch's broom would be for a ride en a cloud. ? Not that we have been on a trol ley in years. We don't remember the last time, but our childhood mem ories of the trolley ride are bright and glamorous. We can recall trolley cars on the Sylvan avenue line back borne that we loved. And trolleys on the run from Merwin's beach, miles through a leafy pas sage by Woody Crest, Rocky Ledge, Prospect Beach and West Haven that still seems like something out of a fairy tale. ? We have a particularly soft spot for the Brat trolley wo ever remem ber. Grandma took as for a ride. It was winter. And it had a stove In the center and a conductor with side whiskers who pat in a shovel of coal now and then. ? ? ? An American congressman urges that we introduce baseball to the Russians.

AMERICAN designers are doing themselves proud in establish ing a definitely distinctive individ uality in the fashions they create. This has come to be recognized and acclaimed as the "American look." Clothes with a definitie American look are what the young moderns, including teen-age, college and ca reer girls, are clamoring for these days. The keynote to the new all-Amer ican fashions is their striking sim plicity, a simplicity that bespeaks a new era of smartness that gives ac cent to the uncluttered silhouettes, tuned to feminine prettiness in a most practical way. Such are the smartly styled dresses here pic tured. These up-to-the-moment fash ions by Emily Wilk ens, the design er who is noted for her inimitable way of creating clothes for the campus set, are just the sort that are bringing a refreshing "American look" into tho nrpgMit-Waw fnektnw picture. Simplicity - plus is expressed all the way through the styling of the | swank bolero suit. The designer makes the skirt and bolero of the now - so - fashionable wide - wale corduroy, which in this instance is in a striking electric blue, for bright colors are making a tremendous splurge this year in the fashion , realm. Using the wide wale horizon- ( tally instead of vertically is a mas ter stroke as it gives a strikingly original look to the entire costume. The slightly peg-top skirt has a ; shaped built-up waistline bespeaking , an important trend in the season's , styling. A blouse of light blue ray lame completes this definitely all American costume. There's outstanding style distinc tion also in the page-boy red wool jumper dress shown to the left. It has all the attributes of youth and style and feminine charm teamed with a practicality and dependable wearabUity that makes it ideal for classroom and campus wear. Also, it's ever so smart to wear about town. Its weskit top, soft bow at the neck, together with the white striped sleeves of zephyr knit are style con vincing. This young original cos tume has all the qualities that go to make up a "success fashion." In sports separates the "Ameri can look" is outstanding in the new mix - and - match (more mix than match is noted this vparl outfits that go in for dashing color contrast. Noted are the chic jackets, sleeve less jerkins and separate weskits with warm knitted sleeves. You will find in the stores such fetching num bers as an aqua wool jersey torso jerkin striped in fuchsia and black worn over an aqua crepe blouse with black sleeves and black collar, the separate skirt also in black. A jerkin that has waist depth buttons across one shoulder and along the underarm seam. It comes in a bright rust color, also in black, and it's chic and "comfy" to wear over a turtle-neck, long-sleeved sweater blouse. Characteristic features of the im portant "American look" are seen in wide shoulders that round down softly into the new wing sleeves, in hug-waist and belted effects with bulk at the top, in peg-top skirts and the wrap-around types. Smart as can be are the dirndl-with-contrast top costumes. With the dirndl that Is gaily colorful a waist depth black jersey blouse is top fashion. It b ; noticed too, that American design- j srs favor gray as a color for smart wool suits and dresses. I Released by Western Newspaper Union. I ? { Dressmaker Touch Many of the new fabrics are made of rayon and aralac, the latter a new Sber made from casein of milk. Combining fibers in this manner produces lovely soft fabrics with the [eel of wool and the drapability of silk. The material used for the ex quisitely simple one-piece frock shown is a handsome soft flannel if the new rayon-aralac type. The iressmaker touch is seen in the streamers of self fabric laced through silver eyelets on the blouse md belt Front tucks, slit pockets Hid a kick pleat give skirt Interest Gray Is a Favorite Color This Autumn ! Favor (or gray is seen throughout the (all collections. For daytime ' dresses the smartest (abric you can choose is gray flannel. As (or gray ; (urs, they are right in the lime- ' light this autumn. Many o( the . smartest cloth coats are in gray wool or tweed which is lavished with ' spectacular gray (ur. It you are go- . ing to buy a new sweater choose a fine gray Shetland wool. If you want to be the admired one ot your ' group, here's telling you how. With 1 your gray sweater wear a crys- , tal cut necklace with a bracelet to match ot crystal beads. Or if you are wearing a simple afternoon gown of gray crepe, give it new ( sparkle with crystal beads at your throat and your wrist. Returning to the topic of gray, it is that high in favor designers are making exquis ite evening gowns of rayon gray crepe draped in sculptural lines. Suits of gray hollow-cut velveteen are high fashion. , Velvet Bows Return Remember when it was the fash ion to pin a big velvet bow here or there on one's frock as a glamorous finishing touch? The pendulum of fashion has swung around again to just that. It's smart to have in re serve a velvet bow or more to make your basic dress take on a dressy air. This trimming with bows is an important fashion gesture and the bows are really very flattering. Fur-Lined Coats Popular If you believe in preparedness now is the time to take up the matter at buying a fur-lined coat. News from style headquarters is to the ef fect that more fur-lined coats than ever win be worn this winter. Many of the fur linings are made detach able. a TOO much has already been "writ ten about the 'TV' And yet it ia surprising the number of sidlin ers who keep writing in to aak just what the "T" ia and how it works. We'll try, with no promiae of suc cesa, to make it aimple?for the last time. 1. The ??*" doesn't demand old-faahioned blocking or hard body presaore. It dependa more on apeed and deception. I. It needa a hard-hitting fall hack who can apllt an opened line. 1. It needa a fast-moving hack who can circle a massed or tightened line. 4. It demands a good passer whs can work with deception and smooth ball-handling. These latter three qualities put heavy pressure on any defense. The greatest nro "T" I ever saw operate was the old Bear brigade with Luck man, Standlee, Gal lernau and McAfee, if my memory isn't too fuzzy. They hit you every known way. The greatest col lege "T" I ever saw at work was Notre 1&i? tdi uranuand nice """" with Bertelli, Creighton Miller, Kelly and two or three good fullbacks. They fell for away when Bertelli left, who was not only a great passer but the smoothest and trickiest ball-handler I've seen around. Ask Rip Miller, Captain Johnny Wholchel of Navy or Bill Alexander of Georgia Tech. It's true that the old Bears sad Notre Dame's IMS squad would have been hard to handle under any sys tem. Material makes the system more than any system ever made material. And material has made more coaches than any coaches ever made material. The main answer to football suc cess is your playing strength?the forward wall and the backfleld? your man power. And don't ever let anyone tell you a different story. Football coaches have done great jobs. Their general averaae is the highest in sport. But the best still need good football players to have winning teams. After all, they can't rush out on the field and do their own pass ing, running, blocking and tackling. ? ? ? Sports Fans' Squawks Sports fans who move up into the 90 or 60-million class, ranghig from ages between 10 and 90 years, are certainly entitled to their beliefs, their squawks, their praise and their blame. For, after all, they are the big part of sport, the major part by at least 90 per cent. They pay all the ex penses, all the salaries. They make both amateur and pro sports pos sible. And in too many cases they only get shoddy treatment and take the big shove around by both ama teur and professional promoters. They are taken for granted. They are rarely given any consideration from baseball, football, racing, box ing, golf or other sporting directors. They are usually the goats, who tiave grown accustomed to taking the worst of it. Their hardihood and their capacity for punishment is the most amazing feature of sport. They are too often packed in after he manner of human sardines at race tracks and other sporting cen :ers. They are too often over rharged. It has been said there is no law hat forces them to take this beating, (his is true. But they happen to ove their names, whether it is box ng, baseball, football, racing, golf >r something else. They are astonished at little cour tesies they are so seldom shown any rherc or any time by the hired pes tle who live off their main outlet for ecreation and entertainment. They are really an amazing breed, rhey take it on the chin and on the thin, back of each ear, in the stom ich and also in the pocketbook. bourses Too Tough Take ffnlf for pvamnla ?* has Uways been my belief that any golf nurse should be trapped only for he star player. Put all trouble out >eyond the 200 yard mark which he average player can't reach. The duffer or average player has tnough trouble trying to hit the bell tt get his bogeys. Why should he >ay uncounted millions to make his [olflng life more miserable? We have built too many golf nurses against the skill of the proa ind the crack amateurs who, aft tr all, give most of their life to golf -and who pay nothing in return. Whs cares whether a pri shoots Ooraii! Why build courses to ieep him from breaking par ea :oerses which the average golfer aa't handle in a to? The Nelsons and the other par reaking stars are a breed apart. Let hem go around in even fi. Who area? But why keep punishing the 8 per cent who pay all the freight? Golf is our greatest playing game or everyone. It is a friendly and a ompanionable game, demanding its hare of psychology, philosophy. r^nMphyScal dtoU e?tRl1 Steril&mp Proven Poultry Health Aid Lowers Mortality and Ups Egg Production By lessening the infectious organ isms in the sir, diminishing fungus and mold producing mycosis and pneumonia, and by promoting gen erally better health, the. ultraviolet rays or sterilamp has become of commercial value In the poultry bouse.
