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.

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.

This Is A Joke—
By Tom PUudM
A minster went into the post office to mail a
package which contained a Bible. The postal
clerk asked him, “Is there anything breakable
in this package?” The minister replied,
‘‘Nothing but the ten Commandments.”
This Is NO Joke—
This year why don’t you keep one New Year’s
resolution—That you are through being wor
ried about unreliable and unsafe transporta
tion for you and your family. You will go
down to Plaxico’s and select one of their new
Chevrolets, or at least one of their OK used
