YALE UNIVERSITY'S RESEARCH 



Fishing Lodge in operation— a great ambassador wherever he 

 goes. 



I should also list Mac Aldrich, captain of Yale's 192 1 foot- 

 ball team and 1922 baseball team and presently first vice- 

 president of the American Museum of Natural History. He 

 has taken broadbill swordfish off Montauk and blue marlin 

 off the Bahamas. One of the older men and one of the great- 

 est and finest surfcasters on the Atlantic coast is "Pi" Way, 

 class of ' 1 6, and one of Yale's football immortals. Dr. Shepard 

 Kreck, '13, of New York, has a swordfish to his credit and 

 has done quite a bit of big game fishing, as has Dr. Arthur 

 Terry, '06, of East Hampton, Long Island, a bluefish expert. 



Of the younger Yale graduates that I can think of who are 

 in the fishing game, I would have to put Jack Anderson right 

 at the top. The 738-pound broadbill swordfish off Iquique, 

 Chile, tops his achievements. He has taken many tuna and 

 blue marlin in the Bahamas, as well as striped marlin and 

 makos in New Zealand. He has fished off Australia, Ecuador, 

 and Peru, and he has a great future in angling. His brother, 

 Wendell, Jr., has also taken many marlin in the Bahamas and 

 has fished in New Zealand and Peruvian waters. Another 

 great fisherman and all-round graduate of Yale in later years is 

 Bill Howe, of Boston, New Haven and Nantucket— a great 

 surf caster as was his late father, who was also a Yale alumnus. 

 My apologies to all the many good Yale fishermen I cannot 

 think of as I write this, but believe me, the boys who are now 

 the members of the Yale Fishing Club have a goal to shoot for 

 if they're going to get out after the big ones and the little ones 

 as the men I have mentioned here have done. They'll have to 

 keep on feeding fish to that bulldog and put that "Y" and 

 bluefish all around the world!
