The three highest winners in the district will exhibit five froz en broilers each at the State 4-H Broiler Show which will be held at the Jefferson Hotel Ball Room in Columbia on June 6th at 10 A.M. % 2W MISS HALFACRE HAS ART IN EXHIBT A display of work by 183 art students at Winthrop College has been on exhibit at Winthrop in the administration building this week. Representing activities of 18 studio classes, the exhibit con tains samples of work by stu dents in art appreciation and ed ucation, ceramics, craft, design, drawing, sketching, photography, and sculpture. Among the seniors whose work is being shown is Miss Mary Nelf Halfacre, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Walton B. Halfacre of this city. When we asked a veteran angler what he thought of the new fluorescent lures, he replied that they were better than plain ones — sometimes. Other times they weren’t as good as regular ones. This, of course, is what ex perienced fishermen had expect ed. But some of us were more gullible. There were great ex pectations based on the fallacious idea that the more visible a lure, the more irresistible to fish. But veterans know this isn’t so. Some times bright gaudy ones are best, sometimes the dull inconsplcous ones produce fish. It was suggested that fluores cent lures might reflect certain rays visible to fish but. not to man. However, some fairly re cent experiments by English bi ologists seem to prove that fish see the same wave lengths we do. These biologists say that fish see colors and even shades exactly as humans. This isn’t so surprising since we have much the same eye structure as theirs. Angling editor Jay Lucas sug gests we must consider this point: What normal fish foods are fluorescent to make fluores cent lures seem natural to fish? However, we‘ know that most fish at all times, and the most choosy at most times don’t seem to give a darn what they swallow. All a fish usually asks is that the thing be of suitable size and seem alive. Should one use fluorescents? So far as our two chief species of game fish—bass and trout— are concerned, it seems highly unlikely that we’ll ever find a lure that will be effective at all times. Both of these fish are ex tremely changeable in their no tions of what they want, far more so than any other game fish. Even the musky, most tempera mental of the lot, is unpredictable only as to when he’ll strike, not as to what he’ll strike. What does all this add up to? To precisely what most of us had expected right from the start: You should by all means have some fluorescent flies or plugs along to try when the light is dull. But it would be foolish to rely on them at all times. CLARENCE METT8 REPORTS LARGE SNAKE HARVEST Clarence Metts, who does right- of-way work for the South Caro lina Electric and Gas Company, had much experience dealing with snakes, this spring while clearing on the high power transmission lines in the vicinity of Orange burg, Rowesville, Bowman, Com- eron, Elloree and Santee his crew has killed 30 copper heads moc casins, 10 highland moccasin and 5 rattlesnakes, the largest rattle had 12 rattles.
