T Futam The Crowded Month HE fight game has run from famine to overflow, from rags to riches, at the fastest pace any- one can recall. The startling defeat of Ray Rob- inson by Randy Turpin has left the September situation badly over- jammed. Jim Norris naturally wants a Robinson-Turpin return match for September with the prospect of a $500,000 show. He also wants to give Joe Louis his shot at the lost title in the same month. He has plans for the younger heavyweights who have been moving forward. Certainly of all the September parties, the Turpin-Robinson meet- ing heads the list in the way of gen- eral interest. Robinson's defeat is old stuff now, but it is still an al- most unbelievable episode. The reason for this is plain. British fighting men have been so bad through so many years that one takes British defeat for granted be- fore a glove is thrown. There are many still who want to see what happened to Robinson since he crossed the purling Arian tic. Slumps in fighting form are not uncommon but it is difficult to see how Roblnson could have gone back that far. One answer is that Randy Turpin must be a much better fighter than he was rated. Even a slipping Robinson, a skidding Robin- GrantlanS Rice son is still some- ' thing to beat. SO everyone, in any way inter- ested in the boxing game, or the career of a champion, wants to know what the true answer is. What has Turpin in his system bat was overlooked? Why has Rob- inson gone back? Or how far has Robinson gone back? Ray bestrode his field like a tow. ering Collossus up to the Turpin moment. It must have been a rude shock after so many years to find himself outboxed and outpuched by a considerable margin. There are many reasons why a Turpin-Robinson return will attract the biggest crowd of many years, plus one of the richest harvests. This could be true in England or over here. With the fading days of Joe Louis upon us, Robinson had become the sole survivor of the ring's greater days, when Dempsey, Tunney, Henry Armstrong and m few others were around. & • $ The Long, Long Trail Joe Louis is now more obsessed than'ever that he will be heavy- weight champion again before Sep- tember passes on. He will tell you he had a different feeling in his Savold match, a feeling of deeper confidence, of greater speed, of his ability to hit and hurt. I have seen champions before who were keen enough to regain their lost titles. Jim Corbett was one, back in the years when he trained .o desperately for the Jeffries fight. Corbett astonished Jeffrles and the world at large by his amazing con- dition. Dempsey lost no time in facing a long, hard training campaign for his second meeting with Tunney. He worked for many hours a day for the better part of a year to be ready for this meeting. The fact is, I think he overdid it. He had a close call in the early part of his Sharkey bout, and might have left the scene that night a badly beaten man. But the keen dslre to get another crack at Tunney helped Jack along. But Louis has a burning, blister. Ing desire, Possibly unequalled in ring history, to put the old crown back upon the Louis knob. It will also help cover the expanding bald spot. Few believe the Bomt)er tsae speed enough to accomplish his wish. But whatever happens I be- lieve Louis will look better in this next championship test than he looked before. No one can wish that hard for something and not have at least a chance to make the dream come true. $ • $ The Last Big Charge A year ago Mrs. Dodge Sloane's Brookmeade Stable dropped famous Calumet from first place as the top money winner of the year. It isn't likely that Calumet will lead the financial parade this busy season of 1951. It may be Brook- meade again, or Greentree. or Son- ny Whitney, or George Widener. Or some other stable. But the Jones boys, Ben and Jim. my, plus Mrs. Warren Wright, are giving Calumet one big final whirl, whatever happens later. Their two major performers are Citation and Bewitch. Last winter at Santa Anita. Ben Jones told me that 1952 would write the big story for Calumet. "We have seven colts by Bull Lea and six f4tes." he said. "We will have little for 1951. outside of my aid-timers. But we may have| plenty for 1952. We may get an. other Citation or another Coaltown or another Wbirlaway. Easy Does It Successful fly fishing in summer. or at any other season, begins with a leisurely study, sizeup or "read- Ing" of the stream whh should tell the fisherman something about Bright Idea By Richard H. Wilkinson R. and Mrs. Roscoe Hardy found themselves in a sad predica- ment. For years they had solved the problem of summer vacations by visiting friends and relatives. They where trout are lying, what they t had made a career of it. They were may be doing at the moment and l professional guests. But now the what they are taking in the way ofll end ha d come food. Sometimes it is possible to get t I 6" The H a r d y' the answers to all these questions] -Minute were no longer at a glance. At other times only a [ . Fiction welcome where stray clue here and there indicates once they had an- the general type of fly to be used joyed economical weeks of rest. and the method of fishing it. For all practical fishing purposes a trout's life may be divided into three activities--resting, eating and spawning. When resting, a trout lies in quiet, rest-conducive water and is reluctant to move. When eating he moves into water that produces food, and strikes readily at moving objects which have the appearance of food. At spawning time, he seeks still another kind of water and pays little attention to food, although other species may follow along tc feast on the eggs which are de- posited in the gravel on the bottom of the stream. Fly fishermen have scant fun with spawning trout, or with their camp followers. Looks for Signs Upon reaching a stream an ex- perienced angler looks for signs of working trout. He looks closely in the riffles, in the slick currents above and below the riffles, in the tail-end of pools and in water close under the banks. If trout are feeding on the surface they are easily seen because they break the water and often jump clear out of the water. If they are feeding deep it is not so easy to see them because the re- fraction of light in the riffle and on the surface conceals activity on the bottom. But even when trout are feeding deep, a patient angler can spot them. His trained eyes catch the momentary flash of a trout's side as it turns against the current, or they may pick up a tail fin break- ing the surface, A pair of polaroid glasses helps cut through the sur- face glare. It is of course obvious that deep- feeding fish will respond best to deep-fished flies. Tailing fishthose which expose a tail fin as they stand on their head to take read--are nos- ing the bottom for nymphs or feed- ing on those which have broken loose and are swimming toward the surface. Surface feeding fish are gorging on hatches of new summer flies emerging from the water or on old flies which are laying their eggs on the surface of the water. Trout lying lazily in deep, still pools rarely bite on flies or any- thing else. These pools are usually resting places. Trout seen there are probably well fed and torpid. They move out to more productive waters when their hunger is aroused. Observes Conditions The successful fly fisherman ob- serves all these natural conditions before he starts fishing. He fishes his flies where fish are working at the moment, and selects his flies to imitate the appearance of the insects which currently attract the trout. By this manner of fishing the fly, he approximates the natural action of the insect itself. For deep-feeding trovt, a fisher- man's most successful fly will often be one of the hair flies, tied to imi- tate caddis-fly larvae, rock worms, stone-fly, larvae or other such creatures which spend their youth on the bottom of the stream. For the midsection--between bot- tom and surfacebest patterns are flies like the grey hackle, the nymphs, and the slim-bodied single-wing flies. On the top-deck--on the surface or just beneath it--best patterns are the divided-wing flies. The flies in each of these classifi. cations call for a fishing technic of their own. The hair flies commonly work best when fished .close to the bottom. It may take a split shot to put them there. The nymphs and hackles bring results when fished from bottom to surface. The di- vided wing wet flies are fished just under the surface. Dry flies, of course, are fished dry, floating on the surface and in no other way, as explained in a subsequent article. The simplest way to fish a wet fly is to cast across the stream, allow- [ing the current to catch the fly and swing it down and back across to the near side. While this is the sim- plest way it is not always the best way, but on fairly large streams such as the Rio Grande. the Gunni- son and others of like size. it is just as good as any other. For smaller streams, the angler will do better if he fishes his fly directly up stream, allowing the current to bring the fly down toward him. /x A For The Beginner Except in unusual circumstances. the beginning fly fisherman should atways use two snelled flies, tied with short gut loops, and with about a seven and one-half foot leader. One of these flies, the bottom one. is called the terminal fly, the other. the "dropper." The dropper fly is attached to the top dropper loop. A cast of two flies is suggested to the beginner because trout some- times reluctant to hit a single-fly, will strike when two are offered. The future looked black. The Hardy's bank account was never lower. Then Roscoe had an idea He remembered that once upon a time he had an Uncle Ralph. Rumors drifted in, unfounded, that Uncle Ralph had gone to Alberta, Canada, established himself in the wheat business and prospered. Now then, thought Roscoe, why not restore Uncle Ralph to the good graces of the family circle? Why not cook up a story about Uncle Ralph suddenly dying and making Roscoe and Mrs. Roscoe sole heirs to his millions? Why not mention this in a letter to Cousin Beatrice and Chauncey Hardy, who lived in Philadelphia and who had practi- cally evicted them two years ago? And if it worked on Beatrice and Roscoe gulped. "It's--it's that relative that's visiting them." hauncey, why not try it on other relatives? Mrs. Roscoe Hardy had al- ways been rather grudging about handing out compliments to her husband. But she had to admit that this plan was de- serving of a lot of credit. She even agreed to write the letter to Beatrice herself. "--and as you probably know," Mrs. Roscoe wrote, "dear Uncle Ralph, who has been living in Al- berta these past 20 years, passed way a month ago and has made as sole heirs to his millions. Natural- ly we are upset at the news of his death, and would like to come to Philadelphia for a week or two to rest up and visit you." Less than three days elapsed be- fore Mrs. Roscoe had a reply. "Darling Grace," Beatrice wrote, "news of dear Uncle Ralph's death has upset us terribly. Of course you need a rest. And both Chauncey and I will be delighted to have you Rs our guests for as long as you Want to stay. despite the fact that at present we have other relatives visiting us. Chauncey. and I can leep in the day bed in the living rOOm." "Humph!" Mrs. Roscoe folded the lett" with a look of triumph. T WAS a long drive to Phila- delphia, and Roscoe had been able to borrow barely enough to get them there. But the future now loomed bright. There would be a )leasant month of relaxation, free from worry about the cost of meals, and always there was the possi- bility of being able to touch Chaun- cey for a hundred or two. And after that, more relatives, more pleasan! :iaes, and more touches. Roscoe figured they could work their pres- ent scheme for at least a year in afety, while the "estate" was be- ing settled. The Roscoe Hardys arrived in Philadelphia late one rainy night and drove up to Cousin Chaungey's with glad expectancy. The place was brightly lighted. Roscoe honked his horn shrilly and had the satisfaction of seeing Cousin Chauncey jump to his feel and rush to the door. "I'll go up and get Chauncey tc ome out for our luggage," Roscoe told his wife." Roscoe climbed out of the ca) and ran through the pelting rain to the house. He disappeared in. side, while Mrs. Roscoe waited. She waited perhaps three minutes and then became irritable. What wa the idea? she asked herself. Whal kind of a reception was this for the heirs of millions? The front door suddenly burst open and Roscoe came hurtling down the walk. Breathing heavily, Roscoe climbec into the car. There was a wild lool n his eyes. "For heaven's sake. what's hap- pened?" Mrs. Roscoe demanded "What's the matter?'" Roscoe gulped. "It'sit's that-- relative that's visiting them." "Relative? Who--oh, the one Beatrice spoke about in her detter. Well. what about it? Who is it, nyway?" Roscoe gasped again, this time sot entirely from lack of breath "It's Uncle Ralph!" he blurted I FIRST AID TO THE 1 " AILING HOUSr I L BY ROGER C. WHITIVIAN I Question: 1 just finished the staggering task of removing some casein paint from a bathroom ceil- ing, by using a strong water sof- tener solution and a scraper. I am now down to the plaster Do I treat the bare plaster the same as when new; that as, by using sizing, un. dereoat and then paint? l had to rmovc the casein paint because it started to peel and let go o , the ceiling. Answer: You did all right, for you succeeded m doing what you started out to do. But the water softening solution should all be I thoroughly washed off, for if you let it stay on the ceiling, it will ontinue to work on your new paint and spoil the job Use plenty l of water for the wash-off. When !the ceiling is quite dry, apply two [coats of enamel undercoater and a finish of enamel following the I direetions on the label. Where you !made your original mistake was in putting casein paint on the I bathroom ceiling. The steam loos- !ened the paint and caused it to I peel. Enamel is the right kind of finish for bathroom and kitchen surfaces (unless you are going to use other hard finishes for the walls). Flat wall paints are not supposed to be used for these rooms. Coal Was Created Before Human Advent What is coal? How was it made? Well, it all started many millions 0f years ago, in what is called the Carboniferous Period. We some- times call it the Coal Age. The climate was very warm and moist all over the earth. There were heavy rains. Plants grew fast and luxuriantly, especially in swampy areas. In our country, these great swamps extended in all directions to where we find coal today in what is now Pennsylvania and the whole Appalachian range, the middle Atlantic states, the Rocky Mountains, and even the far away Pacific Coast. The forest trees resembled giant ferns, reeds, and mosses, rising to heights of 100 to 120 feet, and many feet in diame- ter. Other trees looked much like enormous ferns, climbing 50 feet into the air. Everything was green and lush in this strange world. The giant trees, ferns, grasses, insect life and other creatures, died, fell into the swamps and became part of the sea life buried there. Heavy rains washed soil and sand from high places into the swampy low- lands. Land gradually sank. The great inland seas advanced and covered up these peat-like bogs, keeping out air and bacteria thal cause decay. Again conditions on the earth changed. The land was raised up and once more forests grew, flourished, and died. Again the land sank and the seas ad- vanced. This process continued over and over through untold thousands of y e a r s. The sunshine, whose warmth and magic made these forests, was buried with the vege- tation. Slowly the forests piled up one atop of the other, the peat layers began changing into some- thing we now call lignite, and the enormous deposits of dead leaves, branches, trunks, insect life, and sea life were transformed slowly into coal and other minerals. The quality of legume and grass silage can be improved by letting the green material partially wilt before putting it into the silo, and by adding 60 pounds of molasses, or 150 pounds of ground shelled corn, or 200 pounds of ground ear corn to each ton as the silo is filled. • • • Coal of the Samchok basin, larg- est fuel source in South Korea, is poor anthracite hard to burn un- it less mixed with bituminSus, but its use reduces expensive imports of other fuels. Pruning and dormant spraying of trees and shrubs may be done any time when the temperattlre is 45 degrees or higher. * • $ The typical raindrop shape is produced by air pressure. The raindrop would be a sphere if it were floating free in space or falling in a vacuum. * • $ Bowling is believed to have originated as a rite among early Christians in Germany.
