THE NEWBERRY SUN PAGE FIVE Newberry’s Springdale Cemetery, organized and begun in 1948 by the Springdale Cemetery Corporation, a wholly local oganization, was chartered in 1949. The Corpora tion now offers burial lots for sale, either on a cash or monthly payment basis. Incidentally, the rock wall in front of the cemetery was constructed by Gust Holm and Son out of Newberry Granite, quarried locally, and the iron gates and sign were made at the Newberry High School by B. H. Phillips and his crew. Tihe Corporation hastens to remind the public that, “it is better to have a nice lot in Springdale Cemetery and not need it, than to need one and not have it.” For further inquiries address: Springdale Cemetery Corp., Box 408—Offices at 910 Main Street, Newberry.

PURCELLS “YOUR PRIVATE BANKER” Phone 197 By Tad Ktstmg If you’re a real fisherman, don’t overlook this late season fishing. You won’t get as many fish as you did earlier in the season—you may, indeed, get very few. But during no other pan of the season are your chances of snagging into some really huge ones nearly so good. This holds not only for bass but for pike and walleyes. Very late in the season is the time to get really big pike. Bass, after having been in shallow water for awhile, are now back in deeper spots. 1 generally have best luck find ing them at sharp drop-offs with weeds at the edge. In the colder months, I’ve found them much less finicky as to what lure they’ll take, just so it’s fished deep and very slow ly. Now, you are likely to find them “bunting” — hitting the lure gently—so you can’t hook them well. Jason Lucas, one of our best known bass anglers suggests you use a very tiny plug of the sort that one would generally use for rather small crappies. These remarks hold true of the extreme northern parts of the country during November. Farther south, they will apply in December, even January. When winter really sets in and you must put your gear away, be sure you store your line properly. More lines have to be discarded because of im proper storage in winter than because of wear. A silk casting line must be dried very thoroughly before storing, and kept in a complete ly dry place. Otherwise it will be so weak by spring that it will be useless. We are told that nylon casting lines never need drying, but I prefer to store mine as carefully as my silk—it can do no harm. Never leave your fly line on the reel all winter. Take it off, and keep it in a coil of six inches or so in diameter. The simplest way to make a neat coil is to wind it onto a card board box or such, then slip it off over the end and tie it with string. Be sure the line doesn’t twist as you wind it. Then hang the coil in a cool dry place. It is a good idea to give the line a heavy coat of dressing before storage. 5c Plus Tax Pepsi Cola Co., Long Island Pepsi Cola Bot.

Lake Greenwood, Nov. 16.— What happened out here yes terday, in a little inlet on the Laurens side of the Lake, us ually happens only in the true fisherman’s wildest dreams! Fish, hundreds of fish, all sorts of fish, floated quietly to the surface of the water and begged to be taken out. All you had to do was ease your boat along and scoop out crap pies, bass, and shad by the net ful. Potentially, the finny har vest had the makings of the biggest fish fry since Pinson’s Bottoms were flooded to form Lake Greenwood almost 10 years ago. What’s more, it was all per fectly legal under appropriate State and Federal fishing laws, etc. For doing the scooping, along with fish-happy volun teer helpers, were the Game Wardens of Laurens and Green wood counties, Garvin O’Dell and John Ellison! Under the direction of fish eries experts Ancil D. Holloway of the U.S. Dept, of the In terior, O’Dell and Ellison, along with the rest of the group, had earlier slipped a sea-going Mic key Finn into this particular stretch of water. The knock out drops for the guppies came in the form of a chemical pow der which was mixed just so, and then planted in the wa ter. For obvious reasons, de tails of the chemicals and the planned assassination of the fish must be kept top secret. Guppies Everywhere Lest anyone’s heart should bleed over the carefully de signed massacre of innocent fish, it must be explained that the destruction was necessary in order to accomplish the first step in a Federal survey of Lake 'Greenwood, a survey which everyone hopes will re sult in recommendations that will eventually see the improve ment of fishing conditions at the Lake. Mr. Holloway was sent here by the Dept, of the Interior, in cooperation with the State game officials, at the request of the Greenwood Chamber of Commerce committee on Lake Greenwood. The Federal ex pert arrived early this week and spent yesterday morning becoming acquainted with the Lake. Shortly after noon, an inlet formed by a branch com ing into the lake from the gent ly rolling hills in Laurens county was blocked off by stretching a net across its mouth. A stretch of water, ex- tendinr about 100 yards back to the mouth of the branch, was then treated with this spe cial happy dust. In a short while, small fish began to break the surface of the water. Punch-drunk and groggy, they swam for a while on their backs or sides before being netted by the wardens and dumped into pails, WANT AOS NOTICE — Positively no hunt ing or trespassing of any kind will be allowed on lands of the undersigned, We have cattle and hogs grazing on our lands and a hired man looking after same, If any one caught on these lands, white or black, will be prosecuted.

Only two or three fish, including one cat, were big enough to eat, which may or may not mean anything. One such and the cat each weighed down by several small fish that he had gulped in his greed. The tail of one small bream extended from the cat’s mouth, but several more had gone the way of all small fish. The unusal angle to all this was that the poison did not spoil the fish for eating pur poses. However, we’d just as soon take ours the hard way. Fish Laboratory As the pails gradually filled, the boats nosed into the bank and dumped their loads in a tarpaulin stretcher out on shore. There,- the catches were sorted by specimen, weighed and measured by Mr. Holloway. Careful record was made of size and numbers of each kind of fish and special attention was paid to the estimated age of the catch. Then the fish were dumped in the brush higher up the bank to make a feast for the ’coons that lived in an oak some distance back in the woods. ’Coon tracks showed plainly along the banks, making it evident that over night the ’coons would have their Thanksgiving dinner a week early. Larger fish began to arise later in the afternoon and the party expected to find better specimens when they returned today. The poison affected the smaller fish first but was due to knock over the bigger boys overnight. The same process will be re peated today, probably on the Grenwood side of the lake and more “sampling” will be ac complished tomorrow. Mr. Hol loway will conclude his survev of the Lake this week. He will then make a report to his headquarters in Atlanta, and a copy will be sent to game of ficials in South Carolina. It is expected that the report will contain recommendations for the improvement of fishing conditions at the lake. For Export Repair Bring Your Radio GEO. N.

A preliminary estimate by the County PMA office in Newberry indicates that around 2,000 cotton growers will be eligible to vote in Newberry County. Mr. J. W. Abrams, County PMA Committee chairman says that about 8 polling places will be set up in the County to make it as convenient as pos sible for all growers to partici pate. Meanwhile, work is continu ing in the county office on data gathered from farmers during the past several weeks upon which individual farm acreage allotments will be based. Mr. Abrams is unable to say at this time when allotment no tices will be ready for mailing, but assures cotton farmers that they will be advised of their allotments before the referen dum date. Marketing quotas for the 1950 cotton crop were proclaimed by Secretary of Agriculture Chas. F. Brannan on October 13 when it became apparent that cotton supplies for the current market ing year would exceed the nor mal supply by a wide margin. To become effective, however, quotas must be approved by at least two-thirds of the growers voting in the coming referen dum.
