Prosperity News WORLD OUTDOORS MRS. B. T. YOUNG, Correspondent SPORTS AFIELD By TED RESTING The latest thing in water sports is group cruising with outboards, says Willard Crandall, boating Editor of Sports Afield maga zine. Fleet cruises for a Week end or longer with these cabin craft were unknown only a few years ago. Now such trips are now taking a star spot as a major waterway sport. Outboard cruisers, unlike lar ger boats, just seem to have been built for traveling together. Their size makes running close, within simple signaling distance, practi cal and fun. They’re a boat that can and does tackle almost any water, an ocean or a small creek. Often a cruising fleet will beach for the night, sterns out, with fen ders hung to prevent scraping. This is a special kind of nautical sociability. Step aboard a neigh bor’s craft for fried bass, for a ra dio. weather report, or to baby sit so a mother can fill in for bridge on the seventh boat. Proper rules can make or break such a cruise. Tight planning is necessary, but then what better discussion project for winter club meetings? Details should all be worked out and set down. This is a must. There should be a copy of the rules for each boat well in advance of the cruise. These should entail a time schedule, a course map, and instructions and suggestions concerning what to take along and laws that apply to outboards en route. The lead boat should be manned by some one familiar with the course. If possible it is best to have him as commodore in charge of thecruise. Such a boss is neces sary. Confusion can happen even on the best planned cruise. Today there are more maps, charts and cruising available than ever before. For modern outboard cabin craft, good cruising water is closer than you think. pre- SUm) S BEST MODEL Adm.

INSURANCE TIPS by Votfol Immmon, Gon»ral Manager National Association of /nd«p*nd*nf Insurtt If What's Wrong With Compulsory Auto Insurance? You hear a lot these days about compulsory automobile liability insurance and bow it’d be a good thing because everyone who caused an accident would be able to pay damages. . You’d certainly think the insur ance industry would be for com- S ulsory because if everyone bad to uy insurance, that’d mean more sales. But, it doesn’t work that wa y v Making the buying of liability insurance compulsory won’t mean that everyone will have insurance because there will always be peo ple who will ignore the law no matter how strictly it may be en forced. And it won’t mean that everyone who is injured and. the families of those who are killed will be paid for their suffering. An accident victim can’t recover damages from a hit-and-run driv er who’s never caught, or from an uninsured out-of-state driver. Nor can he recover from a driver whose insurance has been can celled or has expired. He can’t re cover, either, if there is no proven legal liability, or if he is at fault. Compulsory leaves too many gaps* The real problem is to find some way of cutting down the tragic loss of life and limb on our high ways. Compulsory won’t help one iota. As a matter of fact, it’ll have the opposite effect for it won’t take reckless and unsafe drivers off our highways. The effect of compulsory is to grant a license to maim, and to say to such people, “Go ahead and drive and have an accident. You have insurance, so your accident is paid for.” NOTICE OF JURY DRAWING We, the undersigned Jury Com missioners for Newberry County, shall on Wednesday, September 4, 1957, at 9:00 a. m., in the Clerk of Court’s office, openly and pub licly. draw the names of 36 men to serve as Petit Jurors for the Court of General Sessions which will convene in the Newberry County Court House on Monday, September 16, 1957, at 10:00 a. m.

SPRINGDALE CEMETERY Newberry, S. C. Desirable Lots For Sale ^ IGGING frogs is a popular and well-known sport over most of the country, but did you ever see a fellow go frog fishing? It can be done although I wouldn’t believe it myself until I saw it. The equipment used was a standard casting reel, a large crip pled minnow lure with treble hooks and a good degree of cast ing skill. We were casting for bass in a good-sized private pond, letting our boat drift idly along the shore line. Gigging wasn’t permitted on this particular lake, so frogs were more than plentiful At dusk they began to appear in numbers along the weedy shore and under the willow trees. My companion, an accomplished biologist, commented upon the fact that big frogs were far from finicky eaters and would often at tack large artificial lures. I asked to be shown and was promptly ac commodated. My companion neatly tossed his lure near the bank where a big .frog perched under a willow tree. He twitched the lure slightly and began to slowly reel it in. With one big jump, ihe frog pounced on the lure and was promptly wrapped in treble hooks and reeled boatward. To prove it was no mistake, the feat was re peated two more times. What makes the frog strike? Probably, as is often the case where bass are concerned, it’s the action of the plug or bait, and perhaps, the sudden action of the lure, which prompts him to im pulsive action. It is the habit of the big frog to sit motionless along the shore watching for any move ment which might indicate that a good meal is somewhere in the vicinity. Although he’s sitting quite still, actually he is alerted and poised for the jump that will put him top of his prey. r-rr- i : ri k ? mmwm TTT PHI 'I RUBBER HOSE STOUT SUPPORT . . .
