Lewie, Sidney Strotz, president of tiio Chicago Stadium corpora tion, and Joe. Jacobs, Kchmeling'x manager, wound up a long confer ence early yesterday morning and departed to mako up for lost sleep without making any announcement but It' wan presumed they had been attempting to find their way out of two tangled that may interfere with the 'proposed Chicago bout. One concerned tho poll tho Na tional 'Uoxlng association J now conducting as to whether the heavyweight tltlo shall be declared vacant, but It seems likely that tho Herman will be given a period of grace if he shows wlgns of ar ranging for a tltlo defense.

IN FISTIC With Rod and Gun By Ernest Postal and Dick Green Owners of goldfish ponds In Med ford have suffered during -the paM few weeks through the visit of a kingrishcr bird which, in one local pond, caught 40 fish and de pleted' the supply In a short t mo. Medford people arc asked to watch tho bird and end Its existence, If poHslble, as a protection for other pondfl In tho city. A number of local anglers have taken an Interest In the agitation started up north in tho elimina tion of tho use of almon eggs for bait, and Ray the cause is a Just one. They claim there is no fish ing as enjoyable , as fly-fishing. which tends to give angling a greater degree of respect. These anglern are against the use of eggs in catching trout, as unsportsman like, but deem them permissible in catching steel head and salmon. They would use flies exclusively when fishing in lakes and would have nothing to do with spoon or plugs, and say those anglers who huve a failing for the ue of eggs- could learn to like the fliea Just as well. The quail population of the country has shown gradual de crease, blamed largely on hawks, cats and other predators. In addi tion to the elements and unsports manlike killing. The elements can not be governed, but steps can be taken to remedy other conditions, such as offering bounties on the birds of prey, with particular xit tention paid to the sharp-shinned varitles, Tho cat family Is nn other element of destruction, es pecially those half-wild anlmtUs that refuse to stay home, and wan der about the countryside killing birds. Hawks are difficult to kill and are ranked near tho top when It comes to killing quail. Tho houHp eat that people have a habit of roleaslng out In the country, to be rid of them, quickly take to bird hunting for food, and In cer tain eetlons they are numerous. A bounty Is also suggested for the cats. The Klamath river is regarded as tho Important steelhead rftream in the state of California, and is well known for It salmon. However, the stream Is continually threat ened by commercial fishormen, contemplated construction of dams and from water diversions. The tuking of spawn from the river for distribution in other parts of the state is another danger that is arousing California sportsmen. Ef forts nro now being made to close the dream to mining during cer tain months of tho year, to keep Hh flow free from mud, hut the action Is attracting considerable opposition and II Is doubtful If the next California date legislature will consider the matter seriously, on grounds it will impair tho sun ny state's mining Industry. Tho -tenderfoot who was sent out to round up tho lumlw on a west ern sheep ranch, and at nightfall closed the corral on 50 panting jackrabblts, met his match recently In twyi native Oklahomans who set out In an airplane to rldo herd on a flock of wild' geese. They succeeded, but too well. Circling about tho river banks, they forced together an enormous flock, and drove tho birds southward along the river. Here "hunters" were waiting In blinds, and fired almost polntblank Into the mass of birds. The fun was taken out of this new form of slaughter, however, when tho "herd riders" In the nir plane learned that game wardens had witnessed the Incident. Okla homa, like many ether states with progressive fish and game commis sions, prohibits the hunting of birds from airplanes, nnd the two air plane pilots paid flncct of $131 each.
