"I'vo been on the sea all my life. I came to Ilrooklngs 20 years ago." Asked about his 11 fo as a sea man, Scotty said: ' "I was In one real wreck. It was tho wreck of the Uubcnstcln, 355 miles off Capo Cod, in 1906. There were 32 aboard and only five saved. Wo were out in tho open five days, lashed on tho vessel.

Dismiss Subject. As a matter bf .fact, the repre sentatives dismissed the subject with a resolution unanimously ac cepted, in which they accepted tho responsibility of safe-guarding against professionalism by delving into conditions In their respective institutions. Tho commissioner plan was pro. posed by the coaches and grad -unto managers, while tho round robin Idea grew out of schedule making differences- in which a number of football teams had dif ficulty in getting sufficient coner- enco games. The University of California at Los Angeles was loft with only three conference tilts after faculty approval was given tho 1031 football roster.

Roger Hcadlet and Thlltp Stone, SCOUR COUNTRY OR i STARS OaC With Rod and Gun By Ernest Rostel and Dick Green Froak fishing stories mado their appearance yesterday when a number of local nnglers happened to be gathered at the police sta tion, whore Harry Hansen started off a series by telling of a stream In tho Yellowstone National park where nnglers con catch their fish already cooked, llo declared he knew of n river In which two dis tinct currents flow. The water Is cold at tho bottom anil on top it is boiling dun to the flow of a hot spring. I f a hook Is placed be neath tho warm water flow fish eagerly bite at the bait and by the time they aro pulled to the surface, they are almuM sufficiently cooked for eating purposes. Hansen de clared ho had never seen tho stream but hud been told of it so often that he sincerely believes the report, listeners to his story smiled at each other in n knowing way and then Hansen repeated It for the benefit of one or two who had Just entered. Gcorpo Prcscott, city traffic chief, allowed It mb;ht bo the truth, ns he knew of a spot In the Yellowstone park where ho !ind cauKht fish out of a stream and without ehaiiKitiK his position could immerse tho fish In. Residing water and pull it out conked. However, Jimmy liaMster could not see through Out Hansen talc and said it remin.ied him of the story ho used tc. bo told when in school. It concerned a Inko in which fish wero so numerous and food so scircc they Jumped Into boats to appease gnawing appe tites. "Why, you could hold a piece of meat a foot above the wntrr, he said, "and they would Jump for it. When the meat was held nbovo tho boat, biff ten pounders would Jump Into It. It kept ono man busy knock inn them In tho head to make them remain quiet. 1 was told that once or twtco tho boat filled up so fast there was somo difficulty la row ing It back to shore. Tn came Krd Sehoffel, In his usual hurry, and left Information that a well SO or -10 feet deep was found In tho business section yes terday between Central avenue and Kront street. It had been dun years uro and Is still boarded lip. "Qh, I remember tho well," spoke up Hob Taylor, who had been listening to the fishing yarns with silent Interest, "that's the one where I used to nee snmo nf our angler fishing. They tnld me that the well tapped the under- jtrounu cnannci oi a sntjim mat pod to the Kogue river nnd that faifly good sited fish used to make the well their eadquartorss I never did fish there, but I huv been told some of our local anglers In rainy weather dropped their hooks in and pulled out messes without too mucli trouble." About that time, Louis Jennings had nn idea and his face indicated a fish story about to bo told. "That reminds mo of tho time I was down to " he started to say, and his prospective listeners slip ped out of the room ono by ono and tho fish conference was over. T. 13. (Klngfish) Daniels was pass ing by and stopped, but was too Into to add to tho success of tho session, which may have been- the first of a series that may lead to the development of "Ye Fisher men's club.'
