Chronicle l SPORTS '69 Fishing Licenses Are Being Distributed Trespassing Is Problem During Hunting Season COLUMBIA - The South Caro lina Wildlife Resources Depart ment at this season of the year frequently receives complaints MORTGAGE LOANS • 100% VA. LOANS • FHA LOANS • COMMERCIAL LOANS • CONVENTIONAL LOANS / • LAND DEVELOPMENT LOANS A Complete Mortgage Loan Service Designed Especially For— • BUILDERS • CONTRACTORS • REALTORS • INDIVIDUALS John F. Day & Co. Open Evenings By Appointment 300 East Coffee Street Greenville, S. O. Phone 238-9427 from landowners of hunters tres passing or parking their cars so as to block private driveways. Fortunately, the majority of sportsmen respect the rights of the property owner. For without the cooperation of the large num ber of private owners of game lands in this state, the purchaser of a hunting license would have little opportunity to pursue his sport. Cooperation and the re spect of the r’ghts of others are the key words if we are to be able to each year harvest the game for which South Carolina is famous. The Department wishes to point out to the landowners that the members of this agency are will ing to cooperate with the land- owner in the enforcement of tres pass violations and will testify as a witness in any case in volving trespass. It does wish to make clear that the landowner must sign the warrant in the presence of the magistrate for the arrest of any person or per sons guilty of such trespass. Two sections of the Code of Freedom is just a word. Laws relating to trespass are as follows: Section 28-8 of the 1962 Code of Laws states, “If any person, at any time whatsoever, shall hunt or range on any lands or shall enter theron for the pur pose of hunting, fishing or Crap ping, without the consent of the owner or manager thereof, such person shall be guilty of a mis demeanor.’’ Section 16-387 of the 1962 Code of Laws provides: “Any person entering upon the lands of another for the purpose of hunting, fish ing, trapping, netting, gathering fruit, wild flowers, cultivated flowers, shrubbery, straw, turf, vegetables or herbs or cutting timber on the same, without the consent of the owner or manager thereof, shall be guilty of a mis demeanor and, upon conviction thereof, shall pay a fine of not more than twenty dollars or be imprisioned at hard labor not more than thirty days, for each and every offense.” Bell St. Hosts Wright Tonight The Bell Street Wildcats will return to their home court Thurs day night, January 9, after three games on the road. The girls are much improved over last year. They are 4 and 2 and will be out to improve their rating in the contest with Wright High on Thursday. The girls’ team is led by Gail Ferguson, Yvonne Adams, Ear- nestine Booker and Sandra Ful ler. The boys will be trying for their first victory of the season. With only two members from last year’s squad which won 16 games and lost 4, the boys are young and inexperienced. They have shown improvement after each game. COLUMBIA - December is the month for mailing packages and the Wildlife Resources Depart ment is no exception. The 1969 fishing licenses are now lieing distributed to license agents over the state and will be available by January 1 at all normal li cense outlets. The initial shipment will be placed in approximately 1,500 lo cations throughout the State of South Carolina. These locations are selected for the convenience of the license purchaser and usu ally are businesses catering to his sporting needs. These agents will also have folders on the fish ing regulations, which should be given out with every license sold. A resident combination anglers license may be purchased for $3.10 which entitles him to fish in all waters of the state without buying any other license or per mit. He may purchase a license for $1.10 which is required of all residents using artificial lures or manufactured tackle, but with such license he must pur chase additional permits at $1.10 each for the major reservoirs, regardless of tackle used. The major reservoirs are, Santee- Cooper, Lake Murray, Lake Greenwood, Catawba-Wateree, Clark Hill and Hartwell Any non-resident fishing in any maimer must procure a non-re sident license costing $10.25, as well as a $1.10 permit if he fishes in Catawba-Wateree. He can however, procure a 10-day state-wide license, good for ten consecutive days, for $3.10. No license or permit is re quired of children under 12 years of age. Also, all persons 65 years and over, or who are totally and permanently disabled and have resided in the State for the last three years may secure a li cense without cost from the county conservation officer. Any service man on active duty, who is on furlough or leave may fish without a license provided he presents his leave or furlough pepers. This does not, however, apply to simple passes from his station. SNOW: AN EARLY INTIMipATOR You look at that Wyoming sky with its leaden clouds in early fall and hope like the dickens' you're not odd man out with your slender fiy rod in the swift waters of the Snake River above Jackson Snow comes early and fast and it’s a gamble to get in and out with a creel of cutthroat trout. The river is at its lowest this time of year and the air is chill and the wool shirt and the heavy wool socks in the waders are warm and comforting I waded out knee-deep — down-stream from a head of boulders which broke the current and formed good holding waters. My Abu Delta 3 reel was packed with GBG floating line and rigged to a whippy 7 foot, 10 inch Garcia Conolon 2536 rod I lost little time tying a gray nymph to a 9 foot leader and cast ing into the holding waters below the boulders. I watched intently as leader and nymph sunk away from my snaked out floater and began a slow hand-twisting retrieve. Working with nymphs takes a sixth sense and only after hours of practice do you begin to distinguish a strike from a rock or stick snag. The cutthroat, — distinguish ed by the red markings along and below its lower jaw — in habits the Snake River in large numbers and is a good under water battler, though he sel dom jumps when hooked. The joy was hooking into one with size and being sure it was a strike and not a snag. It was almost as unoertain as watch ing the clouds and wondering if they held snow. In the first hour I hooked into a beauty — a four pounder that ran out strongly taking all the slack from my fingers. He tired on Delta 3’s pre set drag and my occasional finger braking, and he came flapping angrily in the shoal water where I waded. Four cutthroat were in the creel when the warmth began to leave the heavy wool socks in the waders and the cold numb ness began entering my fingers. It was a good three hours in the chilling waters of the river. But now the gray clouds were oppressively low and the high Tetons in the distance were whitening and the countryside was telling me to leave under rapidly departing safe conduct. - - ^ Buy U.S. Savings Bonds & Freedom Shares 45m Ths U-S> €n>>wsl 4ms art ps* Isr Mb i+uarttaMMl It b |nMSrt< m • peMfe aarvba ia asspetatfsa vttli 1W rt TraMary aart TIm AdvertMaf CmadL SPECIAL ELECTRICITY COURSES , EVENING SCHOOL - AT/n— PIEDMONT TEC HOUSE WIRING — STARTS JAN. 15 WEDNESDAY NIGHTS, 6:30-10:30 APPLIANCE SERVICING AND REPAIR STARTS JAN 13 — MONDAY NIGHTS, 6:30-10:30 ELEMENTS OF REFRIGERATION AND AIR CONDITIONING — STARTS JAN. 14 TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY, and THURSDAY NIGHTS 6:30-10:30 10-WEEK COURSES Piedmont Technical Education Center EMERALD ROAD GREENWOOD, S.

HOW TO SOLVE GOLF PROBLEMS * Is i JIMMY DEMARET... NARRATOR "SWWC"* HITTING DOWN THE LINE OF FLIGHT The old concept of swinging a golf club from inside to outside the target line (dotted arrow) ts changing. In stead, many new-generation players hit the ball with the clubhead moving down the intended line of flight (solid arrow). The inside-out technique involves returning the club into the ball with the clubhead moving out to the right of the target The hands must be turned counterclock wise m the hitting area, to avoid pushing the ball to the nght Some professionals now prefer a big turn of the shoulders on the backswmg and then a reverse shoulder turn that directs the club straight through the ball in stead of mside-out There is no need to turn the hands over to straighten the clubface at impact.
