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.

INSURANCE TIPS

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.”

^ 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.
