In all eyes human, fish, and other animal the only identified substance which permits colgr perception is a chemical known as rhodopsin; by compara-tive tests of rhodopsin from human and fish eyes, these scientists found that each had virtually the same qualities. The fishing tackle business has reacted to the color argument with enthusiasm. Anglers can buy lures In practically any color of the spectrum for the purpose of at-tracting fish. A whole lot less at-tention has been paid to another important color angle, however the use of color in lines to hide their presence in the water. Many dry-fl- y fishermen will use only light colors in their lines. They believe that since a fish normally sees a dry-fl- y line as it lies on top j of the water silhouetted against the sky light colors are less no ticeable and thus less likely to spook the quarry. Bait-castin- g lines are, of course, a different story. They have no float-- ' Ing qualities and they are much more finely calibrated than fly lines. Therefore, the possibility of their casting a shadow in the water Is considerably lessened. However, j the color of a bait-castin- g line may i very well be of far greater impor-- tance than that of a fly line. This is because a sunken bait-lin- e comes di- - rectly into a fish's view. By far the most commonly used j color in bait-line- s is, at present, j black. There is no apparent explana tion for this; black is certainly not a shade calculated to blend in with all types of water. Nor is it a shade which fish can't see. If bass, for example, were totally oblivious to black, there would be 'small point indeed to fishing for them with black plugs which actually are notable bass killers under some con-ditions. AAA Lotta Tuna! g'm Wm f dfJ 7Ji Lt. James Lynch, Sooth Orange, N. J. (the gentleman with the rod) took this 682-I- b. tuna at Bimini on June 5. The tuna was the largest taken at Cat Bay or Bimini this season. Lynch was using a Cortland Supercuty linen line, a line which, In varying thread strengths took many record fish daring the season. AAA More About Carp Contrary to popular opinion carp are not vegetarians. Tom Moen, fisheries biologist for,, the Iowa Conservation Commission, in the ex-amination of 739 carp stomachs during 1946 through 1949, found that carp of all sizes and ages feed prin-cipally on animal material. The food falls into three groups, Insect larvae, crustaceans, and mollusks. Game fish egg predation is, in the popular mind, one of the prin-cipal objections to carp. Moen found that carp do take walleye eggs dur-ing the spawning period. From 37 carp collected in April In Spirit Lake, one contained three walleye eggs. On analysis of 51 stomachs no eggs were found in Spirit Lake, while of two carp from Okobojl, 9 walleye eggs were found in one stomach. Winter food studies on 167 carp from four Iowa lakes reveals that there is considerable feeding dur-ing winter months, with animal organisms making up 100 per cent of the diet, with only traces of plant material found. During winter, both the volume of food and the per cent of stomachs containing food was found to be considerably less than during the summer. AAA Hook Disgorging The job of extracting a deeply, swallowed hook from the throat of a fish Isn't the tough job it used to be. Many alert manufacturers have taken pains to provide anglers with a means for making this for-merly messy Job more desirable. They have made a simple and ef-fective hook remover of a metal tube with a slot down one side. The line Is slipped in the slot and th tube Is slid on down the hook. Only a slight twisting frees the hook. FARM INCOME Wright County Farm Income Hits 18 Million CLARION, Iowa The community of Clarion, population 3,0t0. took another look at the preliminary re-port on the 1950 census of sericul-ture and quickly revalued the Importance of agriculture to the community. The report revealed the value of farm products in Wright county rose from $15,620,000 in to $18,287,000 in 1949. The report also shows that 57 farms in the county had income of more than $25,000 for the previous year. There were 48 which ran be-tween $10,000 and $25,000; 795 were in the class and 243 re-ported incomes between $2,500 and $5,000. Farms Number Same There has been very little change In the number of farms in the county during the 1940-5- period. There were 1.983 in 1950, as com-pared to 1,977 in 1945 and 1,987 in 1940. Average size of these farms is 182.6 acres, compared to 184 7 in '45 and 180.5 ten years ago. When land values are considered, the ratio of change is much more appreciable. The average value of land and buildings in 1945 was $27,113 or $148.81 per acre. In 1950 the average farm value had zoomed to $42,883 or $217.72 per acre. Value of all farm products showed a very considerable increase in the five-ye- period. Wright county farm products sold in 1949 for $18,287,000; in 1944 the aggregate value was approximately $15,620,-00- 0. Whether the explanation was better times or mainly the post-war availability of automotive equipment, there was a large in-crease In the number of farm trucks and tractors in the years between 1945 and 1950. In the earlier year, Wright county farmers owned 444 trucks and 2,329 tractors; in 1950 the numbers had increased to 644 and 2,898. Yield Per Acre Drops An interesting contrast in yield is provided by the corn and oats crops of 1944 and 1949. In 1949, 147,614 acres were planted to corn or slightly over 2,600 more than in '44. But the 1944 yield exceeded that of '49 by over 1,900,000 bush-els! No doubt the "big blow" in the autumn of '49, plus some borer damage, accounted for the drop in average yield per acre from over 53 bushels to slightly under 41. Oats yields in the two years were lust the reverse, fllthonerh the riis. crepancy was not so great. In 1949, a total of 2,655,000 bushels were pro-duced on about 61,700 acres; five years earlier, only 2,387,000 bushels were produced on 68,000 acres. The '49 yield averaged over 43 bushels per . acre, while that of '44 was slightly under 40. That modern conveniences are part and parcel of the 1950 Wright county farm was plainly evidenced by the census report. Of the 1,983 farms, telephones are possessed by 1,666; electricity 1,836; electric wa-ter pumps 1,426; electric washing machines 1,756; corn-picker- s 1,109; grain combines 859. I SPORTUGHT 1 'Dem Bums' Classiest Nine in Play I By GRANTLAND RICE four years ago, back in the SOME winter of 1947, two emi-nent baseball diagnosticians, Harry Salsinger, the Detroit historian of sport, and Toots Shor, were discus-sing the two pennant races. They were talking about the Dodg-ers. "There will be little to it in the National League for some time to come but the Dodgers," Salsinger said. "Very little to it," Toots replied. "They have all the ballplayers they need and they have others coming on just as good." "It i3 the list of young players coming on," Salsinger said. "This Dodger team is almost Sure to get stronger and stronger. By 1950 or 1951 it will be at its best, hard to beat for several seasons." Shor agreed fully. The Dodgers won In 1947. They won again in 1949. They should have won easily in 1950. Now, as Messrs. Salsinger and Shor said four years ago, they are approaching a new peak. Mr. Rickey built much too well for the remainder of the National League race. Especially his Pirates, who are currently far behind the Dodgers. It Isn't only for 1951 that this dark Brooklyn shadow will hang over the rest of the league. This thing might go on for several cam- - This Dodger team is much the same way. They seem to fool around until the eighth or ninth inning and you can almost hear Dressen or someone else say: "Aw, let's have a home run." And Snider or Hodges or Cam-panel-or Furillo or Robinson will promptly oblige even with two out in the ninth. With Pafko now added, every man on the team down to the pitcher is dangerous. The Red Sox have Ted Williams, Vern Stephens, Bobby Doerr and maybe one or two more who can up-set the apple cart on a moment's no-tice. But the Red Sox have no such array of as the Dodgers have. The Yankees, in this respect, are not even in their class, or close to their class. The Cardinals have Stan Musial and who else? The Giants have one or two fair dis-tance hitters. Pittsburgh has Klner. The White Sox have Robinson. But what other team has Snider, Pafko, Hodges, Campanella, Furillo, Rob-inson and now and then a fellow known as Pee Wee Reese? The Test of Oakmont Oakland Hills, always a first-clas- s test, was souped up for the recent U.S. Open. Apparently it is impossible to soup up a course beyond Ben Hogan's play. But no one has to soup up Oakmont, a bunkered for-tress just outside of Pittsburgh, where the P.G.A. holds champion-ship at match play. Tommy Armour, a brilliant golfer in his day, tied Harry Cooper at Oakmont in the 1927 U.S. Open with a 301 score and then won the play-off 76 to 79. Armour was good paigns, as it did for the Yankees some years back when they won six out of seven consecutive pennants. I can't see how any other team can get enough extra help or added strength . to move within a furlong of enough to be U.S., British and P.G.A. champion. Sam Parks won the U.S. Open at Oakmont in 1935 with 299. Par at Oakmont is 73. So the last two winners there needed an av-erage of 8 over par. After all, 287 was good enough to win or tie at Oakland Hills. This was 13 strokes under the Oakmont test and at Oakmont the stroke-savin- g wedge was just coming into use. According to Armour the wedge means a saving of 2 strokes a round, or 8 strokes in a test. 6r.ntl.nd Ric. He lede"' They had all the best of it until they added Pafko and Schmidt, and this merely added crushing strength on both the offensive and defensive side. Recently the Dodgers moved through a heavy batting slump, yet they kept on winning with better pitching than anyone looked for, plus the long hit needed in a pinch. Only overconfidence or sheer lazi-ness can stop this squad. Waiting For the Punch Years ago Stanford had seven men who deserved to make any team. Among them were Keith Topping, Benes Hamilton and Bobby Grayson. Yet they kept winning games by a field goal. "We knew we could win any time we felt like it," Topping told me. "So we'd fool around and finally someone would say: "Aw, let's kick a field goal.' " Oakmont, the dream terror of Bill Fownes, is a magnificient test for either match or medal play, but its main pressure comes from the medal side. Merion and Oakland Hills are the two toughest courses the Open has known in recent years. But nei-ther is quite up to Oakmont with its ridged bunkers and its slippery greens. In match play Oakmont lends it-self to birdies as well as to bogies. PHILIPPINES TO PHILHARMON-IC .. .

The town of Hayward (population 1500), striving to prove its assumed title of muskie city of the world, took a big gamble recently, but won out. Striving to get the jump on other communities, the town sent its mayor and muskie queen to Madi-son to present the governor with the first muskie caught when the sea-son opened. The delegation ar-rived in Madison before the season opened. Back at home an airplane stood by to transport the first fish to the state capital as soon as it was caught. The season opened but the mayor and muskie queen received no word that a fish had been caught. They waited. They paced the floor. Then came a telegram from Hay-war- d that a fish had been caught. It was flown to Madison. The mayor and muskie queen rushed to the airport to greet the fish and then to the governor. The presented the first fish of the season to the governor and Hay-war- d takes the title of muskie city of the world. 11 !lli'i!lUU.7 jkhmtJtm in nt.lWit-arag- t m...A KNOWS LUCIANO . . .
