live games rained out and it will
probably be necessary to play some
Sunday games to catch up. At
present Manager Everett Bisbee's
V.F.W. nine Is leading the league,
thanks to a lone victory over the
Cape Cod Movers on opening day.
Puritans and Movers tied for sec-
ond and Jerry Bowes' Elks are
fourth with one defeat and no vic-
tories. Tonight (Thursday) the
Movers will take on the Elks and
if Kalweit is in shape it will be
toug h going. As soon as the high
school varsity season is over Frank
Roderick of the Elks. Paul O'Neill
of the Puritans and Bruce Wood-
ruff of the Movers will be eligible
to play and these three should
add fire works to the league.

Rain has caused postponement
of Dwight Coggeshall's fifth and
sixth grade inter-school play this
Spring. However , he did manage to
get in a game Tuesday morning
between the Osterville and Mar-
stons Mills Schools at Osterville.
Hilly Nobre and Carl Wiseman
pitched the Mills uine to a victory
over Mrs. O'Neill' s boys ' team by
the score of 7 to 1 and Mrs. Moore 's
girls swept to victory over the
Osterville girl s, 32 to
y
IS. Barbara
Kearney pitched for the winners
and did a good job. Edwina Pina
pitched a fine game for Osterville
but extremely weak support led to
her downfall . The Osterville girls
appeared nervous and dropped easy
dies and threw to the wrong bases
repeatedly. Sandra Perry 's batting
leatured for Marstons Mills. As
soon as weather permits the Barn-
stable boys and girls will meet Hy-
annis and Cotuit will vie with Cen-
terville.

ing staff and it has relieved the lo-
cal's star pitcher, Frank Buckler.

the ball for Coach Coggeshall and
Buckler has also been getting his
share of hit s . Danny McEvoy has
proved a very able catcher and
should go places in the Babe Ruth

at third , is a very improved play-
er, as is also Francis Souza in left
field.

Centerville is leading the Soft
Ball League with four wins and no
defeats. Bragles , on the war-path ,
however, is right after them with
3 and 1. Centerville had a hard
time defeating Osterville Monday
night but managed to eke out an
11 to 3 victory, despite 15 passes
by Mickey Belle Isle, who is doing
mound duty for the Centerville
group. Osterville is improving and
Sunday nigh t took a very strong
Yarmouth Police team by the score
of 23 to IS, Frank Oakley besting
Ed Taylor of the Police team.
but not to fly. They are still in
the brown feather stage.
"Been having some fine fishing
during the early evening. My best
fishing has been up at Schubels.
I think it's the best there. Also
pretty good up at Lovell's Pond
and in some streams", remarked
Doc Dunne.
"There's a few bass around these
parts " said Bill Cook , in regards
to my question , "What's the news."
Howard Nickerson says that the
white perch are hitting up around
Cotuit way.
Ralph Kimball and his son Steve
were fishing up at Hathaway 's and
Steve hooked on to a good sized
trout , but it shook loose.
Bob Steve was rather peeved as
he has been trying to beat out bis
dad . A super duper lure was used
with a spinning rig.
Oil Ward says that he has been
having some fine black bass fishing.
Using popping bugs and surface
lures he has taken several small-
mouths. "You have to hit fast if
you use surface lures ", said Gil.
"I don 't think that spraying has
helped our wild life. It upsets the
balance of nature. When man takes
over, the balance is lost . Nature
takes care of such things . All kinds
of wildlife comes into contact with
spray materials " was his comment.
Ed Chase and I fished Hatha-
way's and each of us came up with
a fair sized rainbow. Trout were
jumping on the east side of the
pond lint wouldn 't hit the hardware
that we were tossing at them . A
trio of other anglers hadn 't experi-
enced a strike while fishing the
West side. Ed caught his using a
red and white Fiord spoon while I
had my success on a midget red
and white Dardevle.
Our ponds are still very high
with the shore line covered and
the water up into the bushes. In-
sects drop off the bushes Into the
water and provide the trout with
good fishing. Our streams are also
high and flooded.
Jerry Scheerin says that he
hasn 't fished for several weeks be-
cause of the cool weather and the
flooded condition of the streams.
"Have you had any luck over at
Lon K Pond in Centerville " queried
Andy Anderson. "I used to have
some fine fishing thero several
years ago. naven 't though for the
last couple of seasons. The pond is
very high and the water is cool" he
continued.
Drop into Kenney 's Sport Shop
and look over that petition to ask
for a better duck shooting season.
If you want to help, sign it. Every
name helps to set the ball rolling.
Steve Bates has been waiting for
some warm weather before trying
for stripers. "A Tony Acetto spoon
is my pet lure " says Steve.
"Water has been too rough"
says Nelson Marchant , skipper of
the Sea Hawk. "Been catching
some scup and tautog though" he
continued.
Ed Chase says he caught a total
of 12 trout averaging six inches in
length floating dead in the water
on the east side of the Hathaways.
ON THE POLE-
as seen by
HARTLEY R. DAVIS
— r
Scattered news of .striper.-; being eaught lias come to lighl
and the prophecy of many veteran anglers that eome warmer
weather the bass will he in , is being fulfilled. No real lunkers
have been reported as yet hut it is my prophecy that some
fishermen will come up with n dandy over the .Memorial Day
weekend.
Saw a couple of MBA buggies in
town over the past weekend. One
was trom New York and the other
from Rhode Island.
One angler told me that he had
taken several live pound stripers
from the Cotuit waters.
Charles Hinckley. Walter Pol-
lock , Ray Taylor and Walter Hal-
lett went out on a fishing trip for
most anything that swims. A total
of six scup were taken by Walter
Hallett , the only successful angler.
Ray Taylor drew a good deal of
kidding over the trip. Ray, how did
that rhubarb pie taste?
A total of four stripers , one
flounder and one tautog were taken
by Ernest B. Norris and Bill Cook
on a recent fishing trip.
The Emma M, II captained by
Homer Phinney, and the Sea King
with a crew of Carl Sollows, Joe
Santry and Carl Sollows , Jr., took
a fishing trip over to Nautucket.
Pete Schaeffer and Dolph Rich-
ards were trying their hand at
perch fishing down at Flat Pond
and had need for some floats but
had none. Looking around an old
duck blind , they found some old
shotgun shells. They put one shell
Inside of another and tied them to
their line, I'eter says they worked
line. Qnlte an idea Pete.
Every few spare moment are
taken up by Lefty Chandler in
either fishing or hunting and dur-
ing every chat with me, he has
some very Interesting news. Seems
us though he was fishing for trout
up at Mashpee-Wukeby using a
streamer fly and he caught a her-
ring. A few minutes later , using a
red and white Fiord spoou he
caught another herring. "They
gave me some fun on my iiyrod.
Kind of surprised to catch herring
though. I'm not a meat fisherman;
I just flsh for the sport and the
fun. Don't like tro lling 0r heavy
equipment. I like to feel tho fish
hit. Perhups I don 't catch so many
big flsh , but I have the fun ," re-
marked Lefty.
Just a sidelight folks, it iB very
buldom that a herring is taken
while Ashing, but it does happen
once in a while.
AI Schleicher took a total of six
fine trout up at Mashpee-Wakeby
with the largest going la Inches.
Bernard Deveau took a couple of
fine smallmouth bass while fishing
at Brewster.
"Tried Cliff Pond and caught
some dandy pickerel and perch.
They were good sized fish and hit
hard ," remarked Ed Walker.
Quail are beginning to come out
of the brush and heavy woods. A
couple of days ago, a couple of
these birds walked-across the road ,
stopped to eat in my garden and
then crossed the tracks and went
into a patch of woods in back of
my home. They looked aB if they
her fared very well during the
winter.
A couple of families of Canadian
Geese are living in the swamp. At
the present time the youngsters
are under close watch of the par-
ents. They are big enough to swim,

Milestone To Be Marked
— Barnstable Patriot Sp orts News -
Tuesday was a had day all round
for Barnstable High.
The varsity baseball team was
on the spot. It was looking for a
win to at least get a chance at
the Upper Cape baseball title this
year.
The game which was played at
Lowell Field , Cotuit , started off in
a drizzle and was continued dur-
ing lulls between showers; Bearse
of Dennis-Yarmouth held Barn-
stable without a single hit , and
you just can 't score runs on that
kind of pitching
Barnstable did get into the game
In the third when they scored throe
runs on a series of walks by
Bearsa and errors by his team-
mates, but they couldn 't get the
few hits they needed to at least
knot up the score.
Dennis-Yarmouth loaded up in
the first inning with four runs on
a single , a double , a couple of
errors , stolen liases, a wild throw
and a walk.
Willi this victory Dennis-Yar-
mouth clinched the Upper Cape
pennant.
No Hitter Throws
