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.

JARED'S SQUARE DEAL
- By Clarence M. 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.
