Barnstable gave Gloucester a real go of it in their meeting here Washington 's Birthday. Golf is getting awav to a fast start this year. Don Grauer of Coonamesset reports that 220 played there on opening day last Saturday and 138 on Sunday. Cummaquid has had golfers for the past couple of weeks. The 73rd Annual New England Amateur Athletic Union boxing championships will be held at Boston Arena March 27.

Dick Barker bowled a 413 triple while bowling for tho Mill Hill team against Chatham. He bowled strings of 125, 144 and 144. INDUSTRIAL OOLP LEAGUE With the great interest in golf around these parts why not organize an Industrial Golf League? Several business concerns have employees who are ar- dent golfers. | FIRST HOLE IN ONE The first hole in one of the season was made Sunday at Coonamesset by John Tigne of Holbrook. Tigne used a num- ber four iron to ace the second hole which is 165 yards. Playing in the party were C. Fisher , D. Parsons and B. "Weeks, all of Brockton. SPORT-LITES as seen by HARTLEY R. DAVIS There have many signs of spring around of late. Some fellows are getting their boats ready, some are making new tautog rigs, I get ques- tions as to what kind of a rod or reel one should get, pussywillows are budding out, ducks are pairing up, red winged black birds are here and robins have been seen. POSSIBLE LATER OPENING DATE The Department of Fisheries and Oame are speculating on a later opening of the fishing season, changing the opening date from the third Saturday In April to the fourth Saturday. A hearing on this will be held March 17. Their biggest argument for this Is that the department can't always stock the streams and rivers by the usual opening date. If they do, the fish are quite often lost. Also, the weather is usually cold and poor. To me that's a pretty poor argu- ment for having the angler lose a week's fishing. You anglers will pay the same price for your license. It would appear that they are looking out for the trout fisherman, only. What about the fellows who likes to fish for perch, pickerel, bass or hornpout? Even if they couldn 't stock the rivers or streams until later why put off the opening? Couldn't the trout angler fish the ponds or lakes? The majority of fishermen do. And Uie weather argument, must the trout angler have bluebird weather. (That's about all we get for a duck season. Let's not have It for Uie fishing season). Who Is afraid of a little rain? It is part of the sport. It may be a little cold but you can always put on an extra sweater. I have heard the argument that some anglers won't buy a fishing license if the weather on the week of tho opening is poor.Are they ¦ ¦ ¦ « « « « » » » ¦*»-»- - »¦- - - - ¦ ¦ ¦ ¦ — — sportsmen or arm-chair , softees? If a fellow is a real fishing en- thusiast he will go rain or shine. I wrote to the director of Fish- eries and Oame expressing my feelings in regards to the proposed changing of the opening date. Need- less to say, I don't favor changing the date to the fourth Saturday. SPRING BOAT SHOW The annual Cape Cod Boat Deal- ers association's Spring Boats afloat Show will be held at the Bass River marina In West Dennis May 28, 29 and 30. George Moses of Fal- mouth is the show director. BOAT REGISTRATION LAW AMENDED Director Wilton Vaugh of the Divi- sion of Motorboats reports that the law now encompasses all power craft of five horsepower and over. The original law called for registra- tion of boats of 10 horsepower or more. It Is expected, that around 30,000 Massachusetts boat owners will register their boats. The initial fee Is $5.00; a renewal, $3.00 and a reissue in case of loss of registration is $1.00. Motor boat registry men are identllied at the present time by a badge and Identification card. Plans arc underway to have these en- forcement officers uniformed next summer. NO GREAT DAMAGE TO CLAMS AND QUAHOGS Had quite a chat 'with Reino Lampi , our shellfish warden , in re- gards to the damage the severe winter caused to our shellfish. According to Reino there wasn't any great loss this winter by the ice, snow and frosts. What shellfish that were dug up by the Ice were good sized and useable. Shell fishermen could take them and therefore there wasn't any loses. Very little If any seed were moved about. Reino went on to say that there wasn't any anchor frost this year, it was an underwater frost. Old saying that after a hard winter the clam season will be good is true because clam seed was down deep and covered with Ice so ducks couldn 't feed on it. During cold winters the seed Is saved and sur- vives to become large specimens. Give seed one year and they are so large ducks can't feed on them. What the ducks eat is mainly last summer's seed. They are soft and ducks can eat them. Ducks can clean out a bed of seed clams In no time. Hungry ducks are forced to feed on them. PREPARING FOR TAUTOG Walter Pollock is getting his tau- tog lines, hooks and gear ready for the tautog season. Walt recom- mends the Mustard hook for this fish. ICE CLEARING UP Wiley Davidson says the Ice has Just about cleared up In the Hyan- nis harbor. There's still a trace left but a couple of days of ram, drizzle and fog will about finish it. HERE AND THERE Ruth Conant daily feeds a large flock of quail in her yard. George Cross reports seeing several Red winged black birds in his yard. A large hen pheasant was seen feeding In my yard 'tother day. It scratched around my bird feeder, walked across the tracks and con- tinued to feed In the patch of woods to back of my house. I found pussywillows budding last Sunday. They were mostly out in the gray. A pair of black ducks are feeding in the Cedar Swamp. It could be the same pair that have been feeding there for the past couple of years. Several quail have been feeding in the field across from my house. Walt Pollock says that there's lots of Whistlers around. Ducks and geese are feeding at the mouth of Herring River. A trio of Canadian Geese were circling several times over my house a few evenings back. There are still patches of snow in the woods. Birdlife is feeding in the Cedar Swamp and their songs are wel- come signs of the coming of spring. When you see the worm holes and the mounds of earth , the white perch will be biting. Won't be long before the flounders are around. When the dandelions bloom, the tautog will be biting. Fran Nichols says that black and Mallard ducks are numerous on the south shore's bays and Inlets. Ducks are all along our harbors, reports Eldon Logan. Ralph Kimball says that the sale of fishing tackle has started. Austin Bell has seen several pheasants around the Sea Street and Kalmus Park area. S P O R T S wilh ROD & GUN ACROSS I. Plnco , 4. Musical Instrument 0. Afflrmnllvo vote !2..Flro residue 13.
