He will spend long hours with a fishing line, and on the slightest provocation he will run away from the crowd and the noise of the city for a few hours on the golf links. At home, in Dunoon, Scotland, his estate faces the Clyde, but It Is not there that Sir Harry gets his greatest piscatorial enjoy- ment, although the Clyde has many big and game fish. He prefers the mountain streams for fishing, and there are many of them In the hills of Dunoon. While in New Zealand, from which he has only recently returned Sir Harry spent much of hi spare time fishing In some of the remark' able streams with which that coun try abounds, and his "catches" were reported unusual both in size and numbers. Anticipating the skeptic ism of those who do not enjoy the sDort of Izaac Walton. Lauder had two of his largest rainbow trout stuffed and mounted. One weighed ten and a half pounds and the other slightly over nine. He has sent them to his home at Dunoon, Scotland to greet him on his return to heather land after his current tour. Local cronies of the canny Scot, are pre paring for some tall fish stories when Lauder comes to the Fox Elsl- nore theater Monday evening. Octo ber 28.
