Catholic's tied Raiders jumped off to a 20-6 lead In the first period thanks to the fine generalship of squat Don Trcmblay, a 5-5 youngster who is built like a i football player. Central's Don Sarettc was bottled tighter than a mountaineer's brew. The tall players Paul Courlenianche, Paul Twomcy and Don Tremblay took charge of the game at start.

(AT photo) Chestnut Hollering For Bdssey Match After Taking Cadiili NEW YORK Ul "Who's this Hogan Basscy anyway," waller! Ike Chestnut, i hopeful of crashing into the featherweight elimination boxing tournament opening next week. The 26-yoar-olti New Yorker had just beaten California's GiUy Cad 11- II hy unanimous decisio'n in a tele vision bout at Square Garden last night.

"They got this guy Dasscy. or a you call him in tournament and nobody here has ever seen him or knows what lie can do," said Ike. "Why don't they let him fight me for the chance. J'd he more than happy to take him on." Unless Basscy, the British Empire 120-pound champion from Nigeria gets upset by Percy Lewis in oil Empire title defense in April 1, Cheslnut probably doesn't stand much of a chance of breaking into the tournament set up by the World Boxing Committee and the NBA. The tourney to determine a successor to retired a Saddler gels under way next Friday fn the Garden with Puerto Rico's Miguel Derrios facing Brooklyn's Carmclo Costa.

Tho winner is scheduled to take on Basscy with the semifinal victory scheduled to meet France's Cherif I lamia, the European cnam pion, for Itie title. Chestnut, who stopped Costa in eight rounds, currently Is un- rankcd. Cadiili, who beat on Jan. 18. is ranked lUth by the NBA.

With many olher new sportsmen in this area from the air force, It seemed appropriate lo answer Fisherman Brown's request in Ihc printed word so olher sportsmen can know a bit of what to expect from the sea. Actual surf fishing In New Hampshire does not exist for all practical purposes. Our beaches are not adapted to surf casting and the results are extremely poor.

About the; only casting available is at thn mouth of the Hampton River and in the vicinity of the General Sullivan Bridge in the.PIscataqua and even then the results measured in a hours expended arc most meager, with only a few striped bass being taken eacli year by this method. Trolling In Ihe Piscataqua and Hampton Rivers produces ninety- nine per cent of the striped bass taken in New Hampshire each year and Ihe majority of those are taken by fishermen standing on Ihe General Sullivan Bridge drifting lures in (he heavy current that swirls under the span. The river mouth In Hampton Is the second best spot for bass. Although New Hampshire can do Illllc bragging about its striped bass i i it can provide the salt water fisherman with a gootl variety of off-shore fishing for cod, pollock, mackerel, giant i luna, and all the rest of the deep water fish adapted to our ica. Blus fish and sea trout do not get up this far.

They prefer the warm waters south of Cape Coil. The rivers and inshore bays have excellent flounder anrl smelt fishing and the fly caster can have a picnic with the river pollock that can be'found most any a of tide in the rivers. Not noted for its eating qualities, the small pollock will give the fly fisherman, lots of action on light tackle.
