PAGE SIX THE NEWBERRY SUN THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1965 Sports Afield (By TED KE8TING) According to where you live, yon may know this fish as well eyed pike, pike perch, walleye. Jack salmon, blue pike, green pike, > yellow pike, yellow pike- perch, pickerel, yellow pickerel 4017, or goodness knows what «lse. What should you call him? Just plain WALLEYE. He is a perch, pure and simple, and In no way related to the real pikes. The walleye is voted by many to be the best tasting fresh or salt water fish in North America. However, sportsmen aren’t so en thusiastic about the walleye’s realities as a game fish. He’s artrong enough; the trouble is that when he’s hooked he doesn’t Jamp; he generally wants to go straight down. Most anglers use live minnows 'Per walleyes, but you can catch them successfully on artificials. Jason Lucas, angling editor of Sports Afield magazine, has 'a secret for getting them: He lets « small plug sink was to the bot- (weighted with split buck* if necessary); then he jumps , jtt along rather slowly, with a twitching motion, about five or six feet, lets it sink and rest wwhile, and then repeats. He prefers the small plugs, say 3>8 ounce, and by far his favor ite color is a green frog finish. But on days when walleyes are snore lively and not so finicky, a metal lure will often take more of them. Spinning and casting -tackle work equally well for this type of fishing. And since walleyes ere usually found out in open wa ter, with nothing to tangle in, light spinning line will land the largest ones safely. ’ In a lake, a fly rod is about -useless for walleyes except when you find them feeding in the shallows at night. In a shallower Ttrer, a fly rod will hold its own with the other two types of tackle. For night fishing, Lucas uses an all-black streamer, and for daytime, one that is all white. Usually a flashing spinner ahead of, the fly will get somewhat more fish than a plain streamer, tmt it is hard to cast. The best way to find a school of walleyes is to troll hack and jDorth and around and around. Troll very slowly, your boat barely crawling. Hold the rod while you troll amd pump it a little to give action to the lure. And when you get a strike, stop, anchor and cast around you in a big circle. Is there any future for shooting in America? The answer to this question concerns hunters and shooters because of their interest in the sport; arms and ammunition man ufacturers; clothing and shoe firms; hunting camp operators; outboard motor and boat manufac turers; and state game depart ments. The. editors of Sports Afield magazine, vitally concerned with the question, have set out to give an answer in their September is sue, in the fret of a series of ar ticles which will survey what shooters now have, what they want, and how they can get what they want in an article called, ^Must We Hasag Up Our Guns?” No other sport of importance is surrounded tby so many obstacles and restrictions as shooting. Shooting is severely regulated by city, state, and national laws that are -becoming increasingly severe. Restrictions affect the purchase, shipment, carrying, and use of guns. Hunters have their own State game departments, operating on license fee money; they have mil lions of hunting acres bought with their license money, and more millions of acres not owned by game departments, but under their control and open to hunting; they have many gun, hunting and fishing clubs; there are small bore ranges in some schools, sponsored by the National Rifle Association, the American Legion, Veterans of -Foreign Wars, and others; and they have a growing number of controlled shooting grounds. The firearms industry has been on the defensive, almost apolo getic. Yet, it could readily be ag gressive with the supprt of 15 million licensed hunters and the many shooters who don’t hunt, but only fire on target ranges. As for the juvenile delinquency problem, horrified adults see gang shooting wars. Firearms are not the cause of juvenile delinquency. And to-stringent firearms laws leave the average, decent citizen at the mercy of gangs or harden ed criminals. j Instead of (banning firearms, maintains Sports Afield magazine, it would be far better to divert that gang-with-firearms instirfct into healthier channels. The boy with an urge to use a gun—and every normal boy has it—can let off a lot of steam by going to a public shooting range and firing 100 rounds of ammunition at tar gets. The too-strict anti-firearms laws —such as New York State’s Sulli van law—have failed to reduce crime. Rather, they have armed the criminal and disarmed the law abiding citizen. rwz^umr ■■■ n ummlIBB Aged Resident Dies In Memorial Hospital George W.

Lindsay «*VTO MAN has ever got die better of met” was the oft repeated claim of Jared Sharp, who conducted a building mate rials business in the thriving town of West Haven. Possibly Jared tamer* a* he did have, were it not for bis son-in-law. Hank Kimball, who proved hlmaetf to be e live It had become connected with the Sharp Materials Company that he managed to win Jared's eons wit to his marrying his daughter Isa bel Being a widower, Jared didn’t like to lose the services of that young la^y as housekeeper, cook and general maid-of-all-work in his home. On the other hand, he didn’t want to have Hank leave his em ploy for he realized only too well that Hank was responsible for much of the business which came his way. After the honeymoon was over and Hank had resumed his labors for old Jared, be suggested to that worthy that since he was now a family man, so to speak, and his eld saying that “two can live as cheaply as cos,” it would be a nice gesture on Jared’s part if he were to raise his salary. “You know, Jared, Isabel has a first-class appetite and eo have L Let’s say about ton more smack ers per week, huh?** •*ni think II over.** was Jared’s reply. And he was still thinking it over when- it became known that there would soon be another mouth to feed in Hank’s modest home. It was then that the younger man played his ace card. “If that’s the way you feel about it,” he said, “I quit!” “Hey? How are ye goin’ to live an’ support y*r family?” “Maybe you didn’t know I’ve got several thousands in the Cass Coun ty Bank over in Coatesville.— See?” Jared was stunned. Aftei a mo ment's reflection he said: “Listen, Hgnk! I'm an old man, now; and I Agger it’s about time for me to retire. Tell ye what: 1*11 sail ye my business—an’ you'll have a monop- Tyl What say?” ^Hew much you want far it?” "Fiftesn thousand 1 — Can ye make it?” After a brief thinking tt over be said, cqrtjy: “Iff a deal!” The paper* were duly drawn up by Lawyer Vena, the agreement stating that Jared sold th* stock and huaipass “and all other prop erty valuable ot things, belonging to said business, of every fi*v$ kind.” From his knowledge of what the business consisted of. Hank deemed ha had made a fair deal, even ft it wasn't any bargain; but when after the papers had been signed and Jared had bowed out, he found tv>»t cunning old man had man aged to get the best of him, hav ing disposed of certain stock with out Hank being aware. In a cold rage be confided the facts to his wife, who sympathised with him, being too well aware of Jared’s shortcomings. But whoa he had cooled down a bit she whis pered something in his ear which again brought a smile to his lips, and gave him new hope. After consulting his lawyer be lost no time In claiming a deposit of 19,000 in file local bank, which stood in the name of tee Sharp Materials Company and whidMrum had bean derived from tee mate rials business. “You can’t touch that!” cried Jared. “That belongs to me!” “No, it doesn’t! It’s a ‘valuable thing’ and it belongs to the busi ness and so it goes to me!” “I’ll go to court about this!” “Go ahead! It’s the law — and you’re bound to lose!” He was right The court ruled in Hank’s favor. “That’s the time you were a bit too smart!” he told Jared, meet-! mg him outside the courthouse. ^ -j'V/Fi V*?.’ ■ j.'-v-v A- *« WCJIOS , ■i-i.-i--.-H THOUGHTS Brother of Plampin Dies In Northwest J.
