With Rod and Gun Outdoors By MICHAEL SEAMAN Beagles will bay in the 'hills on the 105 acre game farm of the Harrisburg Hunters' and Anglers' Association this coming Sunday afternoon where the first jackrab bit chase of the season will be staged. Similar events over the game farm in Lower Paxton town' ship last year attracted so much attention that the club voted hold a like event this month. The Sunday date was approved by the directors. Chairman Earl Sheesley, hound don fan, ordered eight jacks from a Rago, Kansas, dealer in live trapped animals. The long legged animals will be put down singly and small braces of dogs will trail them in the fallow fields north of the clubhouse.

Earl announced the trial is for fun, no effort will be made to judge the work of the dogs. The dogs entered will be grouped into three classes. Small dogs will be those up to 13 inches, medium class from 13 to 15 inches at the shoulder, and large dogs those over 15 inches. In order to defray expense of the jacks and to pa: for drayage costs from Kansas a fee of 50 cents for each dog entered will be asked. The first brace will go down at 1 p.

m. Regardless of the weather, visitors (admitted free and welcome) and contestants can get hot lunch on the spot. The commissary is in charge of John Klingler. President Barney Motter said a block shoot for turkeys will be held immediately after the jack chase. To reach the farm drive east in the Jonestown road to be macadam road at Nye's greenhouse.

From that point south the way to the sportsmen's farm will be posted. Billy Cleckner and your correspondent have been named a committee of two to select prize, winners in the big fish contest of the Harrisburg Hunters' and Anglers' Association.

The awards will be made at the March meeting of the club at Fackler's Hall. "iers will be informed by mail and in ample time to set aside ftjarch 3 as a date on which to receive, their just dues for catching the biggest fish in Harrisburg area waters.

South West North East INT 2H 2NT Without Honor I think I know now, how that prophet felt, who was without honor in his own country. Not long ago, I meandered into the bridge club where I have spent many of my idle hours for a number of years. I sat quietly by, kibitzing a rubber of contract, with the secret desire to pick up some material for my scripts It didn't take long.

In a minute or two the above hand was dealt. South opened quite properly with a no trump and North, a member of the theatrical profession, who was in town for a few days, responded with 2 Hearts. South having more than the minimum requirements for a no trump bid went, on to 2 N. T. and the visiting delegate Oh the Air Johnny Presents (WHP) Brian Donlevy recreates the title role in Charles Martin's adaptation of Preston Sturges' prize winning screen play, "The Great McGinty," on "The Philip Morris Playhouse" tonight from 9 to 9.30 p.

m. The tory is a satire on politics of the gaslight era. It concerns McGinty, ward heeler who rapidly climbs the political ladder to the gover orship. When McGinty finally disowns the political machine responsible for his rise, things happen at a time when riots were the rule rather than the exception at polling places. Hap Hazard (WHP) The woes of hotelkeepers from coast to coast are to be incorporated in the zany happenings at Crestfallen Manor when Comedian Ranson Sherman impersonates "Hap Hazard," pro prietor of that fictional hostelry, in new series over Columbia network beginning tonight at 10.

As the happy go lucky guiding hand of Crestfallen Manor, Mine Host Sherman has a wearing life, with demands of the guests for a ariety of entertainment ranging from music appreciation lessons to talks on the international situation. Sherman's hilarious finagling invariably ends with a complete loss of his boasted dignity as the perfect host. Lincoln Highway (WKBO) Is a half hour Saturday morning dra matic program featuring the stars of Broadway and Hollywood, will be heard as a regular weekly program beginning tomorrow at 11 a. m. George Jessel, celebrated comedian, in his most famous stage success, "The Jazz Singer," is the star who will usher in the "Lincoln Highway" series over the local station.

Usually "Lincoln Highway" scripts are original, the only requi site being a locale connected in some way with America's No. 1 Highway. "The Jazz Singer," fam ous stage play which became America's first "talkie," will mark one of the few deviations from this rule. Metropolitan Opera (WKBO) Lily Djanel sang "Carmen" at the Paris Opera Comique in the last performance staeed there be fore the Nazis marched on Paris, will make her North American debut in the same role Saturday during the broadcast performance of the Bizet opera from New York's Metropolitan Opera House under sponsorship of The Texas Com pany. (2 p.

Sir Thomas Beecham, eminent British conduct or and patron of music, who joined the Metropolitan staff this season, will make his operatic bow to ra dio listeners as conductor of the Bizet work. Charles Kullman will sing opposite Mme. Djanel as Don Jore. Licia Albanese will be heard as Micaela, and Leonard Warren as Escamillo.

3rd St. 1 could find no more bids. Even with the favorable Club opening declarer was hot able to take more than seven tricks and was down one. One of the players at the table inquired of me, what I would Jhave done with the North hand. To which I responded with the monosyllabic answer, "pass." North couldn't believe that I was serious and queried, "What, opposite a strong no trump?" when I nodded in the affirmative, he ejaculated with a venom I shall long remember, "Nowadays everybody seems to be an expert" It was no time for me to explain that while a no trump opening indicates a good hand, nevertheless it is a more or less precise bid that shows in the vicinity of 4 honor tricks.

Sometimes a little less and sometimes just a shade more. But only a shade. If a hand contains more than 4 honor tricks it is too big to be opened with N. T. and not quite big enough to open with 2 N.

T. A suit bid of one is therefore indicated with the intention of making a strong rebid should partner respond. When the responder has only one trick, a game is hopeless and he should pass unless he has a very long suit or a freakish hand. Some hands, you know, just won't reach for game. And if you are not going any place, what better contract could there be than 1 N.

Harrisburgesque The Draft Penn State And the Golden Gloves By Nobe Frank The Pittsburgh Pirates buy Bill Cox from the Harrisburg Senators for a reputed sum of $20,000. whereupon, the aforementioned Pirates, thinking Mr. Cox, trade A Vaughn for half of the available trad i material extant in the National loop, and the result is that Pirates are just about ready to sail away for the training camp without a first class shortstop on deck. Then comes up. Cox's action pretty well of Nobe Frank Cox's number in returning his contract unsigned, with the re mark that "it won't do any good to sign it anyway I'll probably be called by, the end of the month," is typical of the way ail of young America is tackling the new game of war.

Blasted hopes, five figure salaries, immortal fame and glory are all happily sacrificed to ensure Uncle Sam the victory that he quite naturally expects. Feller, Greenberg, Mulcahy, Travis many of baseball's big shots are removed from the baseball scene for a spell. Some of them, like Cox, young and fiery, will be able to come back and start from the let up. Others may be too old to continue in the fast company to which they were accustomed before enrolling in the armed forces. This is only one sport every other from A to is contributing in like measure, but they don't all hit the headlines, although the purpose and resolve is a common one.

Ed Flynn, one of "Penn State's loyal alumni, invited me to the State luncheon yesterday, and while I am always glad to sit in with that enthusiastic bunch, I wasn't any too pepped up about sitting there and watching Bob Higgins, Nittany coach, describe the motion pictures of the late lamented Pitt Penn State game. Having seen the game, I couldn't find anything to chortle about, and was constantly reminded of the fact that Pitt didn't have a chance that day. And despite all of Bob Higgins' pessimism regarding the outlook for next year, I have a hunch that the Lion will do considerable prowling when the season rolls around. And next week sees the finals of the Telegraph Golden Gloves, and to tell the truth we're rather sorry to see the fistic pageant pass into history. It was launched under circumstances which made the success of the project somewhat doubtful, for the boys were going into the' Army, others were being sought in defense industries, and the minds of all were far from the prize ring.

But everyone fans, fighters, and resin dusters rallied to the cause, with the result that, instead of a pos sible failure, the undertaking bloomed into a tremendous The Army, characteristically, helped save the situation. The 104th Cavalry furnished some mighty fine fighters, as did the 1325th Service unit from Indian town, and from the ranking brass hat to the lowliest private, the military featured the bouts with their regular attendance. But there is one more bout so come on out next Thursday.
