The league has been divided into two separate units, a major league with ten teams, and a minor league with four teams. After a week cf play, interest is beginning to increase as the teams become faster and more ac curate. The weather has been a handi cap to both spectators and players alike as it has not been what it was last season, thereby slowing up the game due to the lack of practice. Several girls' teams are in the making again this year and are expected to place good teams on the diamond. It is expected that the play in the girls' division will be far above that of last season. The number of nights has been increased from four to five this season due to the league entering three new teams with play start ing at seven o'clock for the first few Weeks. to place them in third position. The Tourists won the Piedmont pennant last season and W. N. C. fans expect them to make a good showing for themselves this year despite the slow start.

Anglers are still having the time of their lives on the mountain streams, and good catches are re ported from most of them. The other day several women from this community srave their hus bands a bit of their own medicine. They went fishing, and when sup per time came they had not re turned and the poor husbands were deprived of their usual hot even ing meal. We do not know what transpired in the home, when the misses returned, but time about seems to us to be fair play.

TIGER MOUND ROOKIE The trout fishinsr season in Great Smoky Mountains National Park opens May 16, for a three and a half month period. Indications are that fishing will be consider ably improved this year over that of recent years. Since September, 1939, a total or HZ.umj rout, weighing 4,769 pounds, have been stocked in park streams. This number was almost equally divided between brook and rainbow trout. One of the recently inaugurated factors aimed toward more fish per hour's fishing for the angler hai been the stocking of 25,050 legal sized trout. These keeper sized fish have been distributed over the larger park streams, with most of them stocked in streams which are most accessible arid heavily uspfl hv visitors. Many of these legal sized trout were from 8 to 10 j inches in length when siocKeu. The completion or rearing pools in Cades Cove has made 'this pro gram possible, by providing facil ities for holding fingerling trout over winter. Trout 4 to 5 inches in length in October are reared to legal size by the following May. A creel census station is main tained on Little River, and a rec ord is kept of all fish taken above the fire control gate. During the past few weeks 1,600 rainbow and 600 brook trout, from 7 to 8 Inches in length, have been put in streams Farmers In North Carolina In terplanted $00,000 acres of soy beans with other crops last year compared with ten-year (1928 1937) average of 237,000 acres.
