GREENVILLE—Does it pay to fumigate cotton land for nematodo control? A. D. McLawhom, Winterville, Todays Sporfrait By MILTON RICHMAN (United Press Sports Writer) NEW YORK (lE—Florence Chad wick, generally acknowledged as the woman athlete of the year, reveal-' ed plans today to swim the shark infested Strait of Gibraltar because conquering the English Channel twlee has only left her “restless." No woman ever has swam the treacherous Strait of Gibraltar but that, doesn’t worry the soft-spoken, dark-haired 33-year-old San Diego woman who September 10 became the first woman ever to swim the English Channel in both directions. “Swimmlne the Strait of Gibral tar won’t bring me anv fame or fortune.” she explained, “but it will bring me a great deal of personal satisfaction” SHARKS PLENTIFUL The sharks, which are known to be plentiful in the strait,, don’t worrv Miss Chadwick too much. “There’s a wav to outwit the sharks.” she said without alarm. “A man by the name of Daniel fumigated 10 of the 20 acres on which he grew, cotton this year. The treated area produoed 949 pounds of lint and 1.519 pounds of seed, while the untreated area pro duced onlv 608 pounds of lint and 972 pounds of seed. S. C. Winchester. Pitt farm agent for the State College Extension Service, says the treatment paid McLawhorn a net extra return of t $139.29 for the 10 acres. JEFFERSON Fall pasture is proving profitable for J. -C. Little of Clifton, Ashe County. D. F. Tugman, Ashe county agent for State College Extension Service, says Little seeded two acres of rye, wheat, and crimson clover mix ture in late August. He has grazed six animals oh the two acres since the middle of October and the pasture is growing faster than the cows can keep it grazed. Little figures that the feed he has obtained to date from this tem porary pasture has more than paid the cost of seeding.

He ad vised me on how to avoid being bitten by the sharks. “ ‘SimDlv swim between two row boats all the time,” he told me. “The boats frightened the sharks away." To prepare herself for her new aquatic undertaking which she hoDes to launch some time next summer—Miss Chadwick again will train at the Grossinger Country Club where she will iron out the kinks <n her unorthodox eight-beat kick. She plans to use the Ameri can crawl, the same stroke ttiat twice took her across the turbulent channel. HER NEXT GOAL And after swimming the Strait of Gibraltar what, next? “I would like to try swimming from Catalina Island to the Cali fornia mainland,” she smiled. “Then I’d retire.” Few women in America’s snorts annals have -corked so diligently to make good as has the ambitions Californian with the slight tilt to her nose. Before swimming the channel the first time on August 8, 1950, and breaking the existing record in the process, she worked two years as a comptometer oper ator in Arabia to raise the $5,000 expense money. Every spare moment she has, she encourages youngsters to take a more active interest in sports. Florence Is equally capable on the tennis court, the golf links or even in front of a stove. But the only real place she’s at home is in the water. EXIT NOT SO GO(£D INDIANAPOLIS.
