June 2S—Sensa tional charges that land sharks are grabbing up all the suitable fishing worm land under options, and stifling the move toward develop ment of the fishing worm industry in the Valley were being made here today simultaneously with an nouncement that an expert in the subject is to have in a few days, to study fishing worm growing in «ome oi the wildest East Texas sec tions. A large part of the best land for fishing worm culture, ospecia !y land along the Arroyo Colorado, has been grabbed up under options since plans of the Valley 1 .shine Worms. Amalgamated, were an nounced a short, time ago. a d i' i feared that the concern will have to reek quarters elsewhere. Rf ltca land in San Benito and vicinity, which was be!ng consider’d, a; > is reported to h** mostly grabbed o.f the market by the land shark1-.

Will Shin Choice Bait Mr. Schattenberg has been em powered by sponsors of the Valley Association of Fishing Worg Grow ers and Breeders, to make a thor ough study or the situation In East Texas, and to bring back o- shin some choice worms from different parts of the country to start the in dustry in Valley sections Schattenberg said he Is familiar with most of the hr reds in East Texas, and will try to nick out or.e best suited to the Valley. It is his contention that the Val iev soil is too dry and too heavy for fishing worms. As to the staterr.cn* of Browns ville men that the Valiev has fish ing worms the local authorities and those at San Benito, including H P Bovd, declared that there must lie some mistake in the interpretation of a fishing worm. • Speaking of vems-” So started off Boyd, who is slated for the prr idencr of the V "rv As sociation of Fishing Worm Grower., and Breeders. It Takes an Expert “I fee! that the Brownsville people, due to isolation or n me oth er Cultural disadvru’iace. have r • romp in contact v 1 i the seal fa fs In reward to fishing worms "'hen ere persons who might tilin’: the larva of a mosquito is a fishing worm, or anv number of other in sects might be considered a f rhlne worm ' But enlv a stranger to reel cane pole fishing with a first ela tough-skinned, half section of an East Texas fishing worm would sa" that the Valley has such worms ' have explored It from cue bnd to the other hunting for th«vn„ and they are not there.** AH the local autlioritie: were agreed that the Valley ha~ no fish ing worms. M H. Ford. In charge of the fed eral fruit 'fly eradication and con trol work in the Valley, declared that the Valley soil h not cnurc’v suited to the fishing worms. Jack Smith, inspector at Raymonds’llle, expressed* tlv’ same b**licf.

Ail ot the mspetcors asrred that the Valley has no such worms, but they sa;d this section could breed excellent worms with a little care. ••Just a httle sand sprinkled in the soil ior th- m. and a little water occasionally, and the worms wil! thrive remarkably.” Ford said. Schattenbcrg, the sneeial delegate of the Valley Association to East Texas, is making preparations for the first large shipments of worms back to the Valley. In commenting on the statement oi a sports writer who took the stah raent that the Valley breeds no fishing werms as a slight on Val ley soil, one local man said. Priority Rights "Fishing worms were originated in East Texas, and were brought up during early childhood of the rare on th° East Texas soil. They are naturally used to that lean, j sandy type of soil, and the Valley’s | rich soil proves too much for them, and they die out. To say that such 1 a condition is a slight on the Valley ’s little more than absurd ” A meeting of Valley people inter ested in the formation of a fi&hln; worm association probably will be l'"ld early next week, in the office of H.

German coun terpart of Jack Dempsey, came through in great style last night in the Yankee stadium, winning a de cisive and bloody battle from Pau lino U/xutlun, a block of pugilistic granite from the Pyrames of Spain. Maxie didn't knock him out—and neither has any other man. The Teuton hammered the reeling Bas que unmercifully for the last five j rounds but even the full force of his killing right was unable to pul Paulino on the floor. • • * Maxie now will get a shot at Jack Sharkey in a tiff for the world's hcavywe’ght championship —that is. providing Jack Demp sey doesn't need a little pocket chanse. All Dempsey has to do to gel into the elimination con test is to let an easy “yes" roll off his tongue. And the Manassas Mauler may do just that littrr l thing. These half a million dol lar purses don't grow on bushes. • • • Although Dempsey is practically I through, a bout between him and ; Schmeling would be a great draw ing Ccird. The Schmeling-Sharkey ' bout would bring out the cash cus tomers, too. hut they would be corn ing out in hope of seeing the talk ative Boston Tar cuffed into sub mission. Sharkey is decidedly un popular and his constant stream of braggart chin-music doesn’t help the situation a bit. The fans arc open in their opposition to him since the battle of What of It at Miami Beach. * * * It's about time now for the prepoymndists to set up their maudlin prayer of “Keep the heavyweight title in the United States.” This line always has proved sure-fire stuff. It works on the country's patriotism—and polls in the rarh customers. Sev eral of the clrl timers set up tit’s cry every lime a foreign eon trader looms up over the horizon. • mm Perhnos a foreign champion would be the best thing for boxing in this country. The United States has reigned .supreme for so long that the phrmo “foreign contender*' has go? to moan about the came as “pn locka."* At til” last Oymptr Games. American c*>i ntcr: v<'v given a re vere shoo’; as the*' viewed the fly in her" of Englishmen, Canadians .< will awaken the Am*:"'"‘cans to the fact that they ere not necessarily . — - . . - I ■ world champions and they will fight harder and win more places in the next meet. The same thing applies to the boxing situation. Should Sc him; ling win the championship, a revived Interest would be taken in the game. He undoubtedly Is pop ular. He was given a rousing ova tion when he stepped Into the ring last night. In direct contrast. Jack Sharkey was vigorously booed by the same crowd as he appeared at the ringside. • • • The betting in Brownsville fa vored the Basque to win. This doubtless was due to the Span iard’s nationality. The Latin race produces many popular small boys hut a Spaniard heavyweight of the first water is an oddity. I'nui has been the Latins' best bet since Luis Angel Firpo who came with in an inch of the world’s heavy weight championship when he knocked Dempsey sprawling from the ring to the press bench. Many hold that if the scandal purvey ors had not helped Dempsey back into the ring, Firpo would have won the title. • • • The Argentine recently began a ‘come back'* training ression. Ac cording to current stories, a taxi cab driver ended the come back.” , Luis got into an argument with an unknown cabby The little fellow | laid Firpo out like the well known ! rug. the story goes.
