C L U 6 The rules are few know) - but rigid. Contestants r divers must restrict their tall Pltshn tales to subjects touching directly on fish, fishing or some phase of l marine life. They must be brief, and original. No champion may award compete a second time. Past champions sit in judgment on each year's of spt crop of contenders and their decisions are final. George Ade has 1 been accorded recognition for his own sterling ability to weave fanci- have ful stories by being invited to sit in as an active judge. up rc; In addition to having his name posted on the Plaque, the Champ the C is given a red necktie and none but those who have won one may up pa wear a tie of this vermillion hue at Club meetings. T It is also traditional that the sittings and atmosphere of each ficien contest shall be original and not repeated. One year the judges dressed in the wigs and robes of the English Court. Another they nitioq came in costumes patterned after the clothes worn by such world divers famous liars as Ananias. Munchausen and others. Once a lie de- tector was used.

Sayre. 6 i THE COMMODORE'S MESSAGE IN the Year Book of 1941, your Commodore stated in his message that he was looking forward with keen anticipation to another year of participation in seagoing activities—how little did any of you rea- lize at that time the tremendous upheaval of war which the year was • to bring. Part of your Fleet has "participated in seagoing activities," but these were not the pleasurable cruises nor the rollicking fishing parties which you had anticipated, rather they were days and nights spent afloat—eyes straining in the inky darkness—heartbeats quickening at the sight of wreckage--a slick which might be a periscope—a raft which might contain another survivor—participating with your puny wooden boats, equipped with little or no armament, battling against marauding submarines. You had no other defense but your speed and the cover of darkness, yet you brought fear and terror to the enemy as they heard your propellors and sought deeper levels, for even the smallest craft may carry a radio which can quickly bring a bomber winging overhead! Your Commodore is proud of the response which came from this Fleet when the call to arms sounded. Thirty-nine of you members enrolled with your boats into the Coast Guard Auxiliary. You became Flotilla No. I, in Division No. 2, and your boats were immediately called upon to assist the regular (:oast Guard in its work in this area. Many hours were spent by members in anti-submarine patrol and rescue work, and all of you have stood ready to answer any emergency, day or • night. One of your members, D. R. (Doc) Smith, received a ciFtttion from the Coast Guard Commandant in Washington for a particularly notable rescue operation. Twenty-three Fleet members turned their boats over to the regu- lar Coast Guard service, and nine members are now serving in the Armed Forces. We're particularly proud of these men—N. D. Coates, Sherman "Red" Crise, Johnnie Gautier, Harry Hecker, Dick Hunt, Stan Hunt. Langdam Laws, Gene Kienle, Malcolm "Mac" MacConnell. During the year, members in the Flotilla have attended classes one or two evenings each week, and have studied such subjects as Pilot- ing, Navigation, Marlinspike and Deck Seamanship, First Aid, Code • Flags and Hoists, Morse Code Blinker and Semaphore Signalling, and Coast Guard Regulations. It has been a source of pride to your Com- modore that members have been willing to give up their leisure hours to study of these subjects, striving to attain a proficiency which would make them of value in the service which they were render- ing to their country. While this war continues, your Commodore knows that for what- ever duty your country calls upon you to perform, that your slogan— your guiding principle—will be that of the Coast Guard, "Semper Paratn.r"—Always Ready—and before another year rolls around, let us all hope that we will have achieved a glorious victory, and that we can still continue to use the same slogan, but that it will then mean, "Always ready; yes, always ready to jest go fishin'!" WILLIAM N. MANSFIELD.
