The news that the rntfish were up-
n nrev Otis records enme in
Vtler part of last week from
different hources.
Further, in two -instances il wns
,ircn casually nnd in one instance only
fn connection with nnother bit of news
that was considered rcmarhnble.
In this Instnnee 15. L). llenson staled
that n sen ftshcrmnn had exhibited and
tivcn him two xiniflsli. which, he snld.
ho had taken from n heine net In the
tipper part of- freat Egg Harbor bay.
Took I'lve, Catfish
Oiirtions put to Mr. llenson devel
neil the fact that the fisherman had nlSo
tni,en five fresh-water rntfish nnd seven
white suckers, besides u quantity of
estuary fish. Thin catch was made, as
a mutter of fact, in the Tucknhoe river
and not in dreat Egg Harbor bay. The
character of the fish was sufficient to
dpmoiMrnte that.
The same day A. E. lord gave in
formation that the raffish In n pond he
owned in Hflnwnre county were plainly
vinhle swimming freely over flic bot-
i torn'. . , , i
Thru word was received that the
Biinkamn hi others. Ered and Kichard,
members of the l'hilndelphin County
FHi and riiinic Protective Association,
hod caught three liirge yellow cntlish
w it It a j ml and line from Cooper's creek,
using worms for bait. Only one rod
was ukim nun tne nsn were an chukiu
exactly the same for this nml flu. ilirr.n
preceding winters, with (lie exception
of last year's iiimsunll.v seveie winter,
when the average tcinpci tit lire wnsaliinil
slv degrees wiiiiner.
It has al-o been suggested I hat the
remarkably early movement nnd feeding
of tlm cutlWi is due to the almost enfire
freedom from ice In the rivers and
ponds, thus allowing n greater amount
i oxygenation of the water, some
thing that would undoubtedly have n
tendency to cause activity among the
fish. Hut. plnusihlo as this is. the
explanation is weakneded first by the
met that there was little If any more ice
during the winter of 1DJS-1!) than this,
for that was an open, mild winter,
nl-o. Second, there is the fact that In
the nutinrium there is, us u matter of
course, never any ice in the water in
the funks, and the amount of oxygen
found therein is much greater than Is
naturally in rivers and ponds under the
most favorable conditions, jet hereto
fore the fi-h have slumbered untilApril.
It's a Myslcry

activity of catfish at this time of the

three W,f the many which surround lisli life.
So anglers will have to accept the fact
without bothering much about the
problems of why. Their chief concern
will be. places where they will be most
likely to inveigle a mens, s
One of tlie near-by locations where
cattish about during tl summer
months and which should jleld results
now, is Neslmiiiing creek between
Croyton nnd the mouth of the stream.
The ItnneociiH is also a fiuorile haunt
fo,r catfish, nnd so lire Ilig nnd Little
Timber creeks. I'robnbI the most
famous stream, the one which yields the
most and the largest lish, is .Salem
creek at the town of that name. Alloway
creek nt both Quintou nnd the village
of Alloway, is a good fishing stream.
The while catfish predominates in these
two last named wateis, while m tlie
others the yellow catfish is said to be the
most numerous.
The best bait aie big fat earth worms,
commonly called night crawlers, n frag
ment of fresh herring and a piece of
American cheese. I'nder normal con
ditions, the two latter bails tire better
after the season has advanced n bit.
Weather conditions are such that worms
can be had for the digging, and perhaps
in some of tho tl-di bait stores.
Ordinal Hy catfish bite better nt night
than in the day time, but under tlie
abnormal circumstances tho chances are

PRINCETONFIVE WINS
Brawner's Basket In Extra Period
Wins Over Swarthmore
Swarthmorc.. Pa... Feb. I'.I. The
Princeton basketball five defeated
Swarthmore by the score of
n.1 to .'tl. It tool; an extra flvc-min-lite
period to decide the victors in the
most thrilling contest staged here in
many jenrs.
It was Uraw tier's spectactihir one
hniid stub In the finnl period, which
put the game on ice for old Nassau
after eacli team hnd tallied n onc
poinlcr. The final foity minutes of piny
ended in a tic nt .'ill. while Princeton
led at the end ot the fust half 17 to 10.
and Camden Meets Read- -ing
in Important Clash on
Latter' s Court
rpHE second half of the Eastern
-L J.engue basketball race Is tightening
up. The Trenton Tigers by their vie
torj over Contesvlllo Inst night have
advanced to a, tic with Heading for
first place nnd tho .fcrseymen are anx
ious to score another win over the
Phillies when they play here tonight nt
Musical Fund Hall, Eighth and Locust
streets. " !
White the Poltnvs arc meeting the I
Phils, Camden will be nt Heading, I
playing the Pretzels in n game tluil will I
give the chiimpions n clinnco to ntlvnneo I
on even terms with Oermnnlown. The
locals now hold a half-game lead. A
victory for tlie Skcetcrs will cause, n
tie, while n victory for Heading means
the Oerms will have n full game advan
tage. The fight between Rending nnd Tren
ton for (lie highest place promises to be
as keenly fought ns the scrap between
the Skcetcrs and Oerms for the second
half honors, not that these teams are
out of the running, but the present
lenders have the best chance of win
ning. Heading and Trenton are fight
ing hard for places, as the one t lint
finishes highest meets the winner of the
second hntf for the season's title.
Haymoml Cross Hack
The Phils will plucc the best team on
the lloor tonight that Musical Fund
fans have seen this season. At forwaril
will be Willie Miller and "Chlcky" Pas'
sou; at center, "tikeets" Wright, nnd
the guards, Kn.wnoml Cro&s and Tom
Dunlcavy.
Cross has returned from n trip to Chi
cago nnd will pair off with Tom Duii
lenvy for the first time since they were
members of the North Phillies.
These players worked together in grent
style when with the North Phillies nnd
nre expected to form one of the best
defensive and offensive bnckficlds In the

The Phillies arc one of the hnrdest ! ton by
clubs in the Eastern Lenguo to defeat
on the home floor. Each week they have
been turning back the best clubs, and
Trenton has been one of their chief
victims. 'I he lust two trips of the vis

the sin prise of a big crowd of fans

will have a strong line-up. including

The Eastern League will hold a spe

week he notified the various leaders
that regardless of what has been done I
