Considerable difference exists be-
tween the sort of fight put up by
sharks and the battle made by tar-
pon. The latter fight the hook,
making huge, beautiful jumps to
shake R loose, but put no great
strain on tackle and have been
landed on light rods and lines.
Sharks, however, favor "power
plays"—long, fierce rushes that re-
sult in more of a “man-to-man"
battle—along with sudden roils, and
twists that demand considerable
strength from the angle.
The small “black-tip' shark ar-
gues a bit likq tarpon, with a twist-
ing. spinning leap that brings out
shouts of admiration from even
the hardened commercial fisher-
men
Two points, however, may make
shak angling one of the most pop-
ular water sports in toe country.
The brutes are more numerous, at
least in Oulf Waters, than any
otlici fish approaching their sire

tackle needed brings their snaring

Dr O M. Ball, professor emer-
itus of biology and curator of the
museum at Texas A. St.
recently completed the second vol-
ume of hb professional paper, "a
contribution to the paleobotany of
the Eocene of Texas " With the first
volume, issued in 1931. the work oc-
cupied the major part of Dr Ball's
time for the past 25 years.
The new book is divided into two
sections, part one describing some
florules from Wtk-ox, or lowerOco-
cene group of Texas mainly from
the clay pita near Athens Part
two deals with florules from the 1
Jackson, or upper, eocene group dis-
covered near Huntsville.
The volume describes 88 species
of foasii) plants, including 31 new
types uncovered by Dr Ball Of the
new types. 13 came from the lower
eocene and 19 are entirely new to
Texas In addition three new cre-
taceous types are described and rep-
resent the oldest known flowering
plants in the world. Dr Ball said
The finding indicates Dr Ball
said, that the climate of Texas has
varied little over the past' 10,000,-
000 years His studies show that the
types of plants found were suit-
ed to a climate of a middle or
