The trout season opened on
Wednesday with fine weather. A
high percentage of anglers have
been successful.
Steady growth in the popularity
of angling is seen in the contin-
ued .,increase in the number of
non-resident` licences' sold, al-
though 1956 figures, not yet corn-
pleted„ are not expected to• be
much above the 1955 total of
377,200 because of last year's late
spring and wet summer.
Inis felt that the increase Is an
indication not only of the growing
interest in the spprt but also of
the favourable angling conditions
to be found in the lakes and
streams of this province,
Don't forget the limits of catch
are: Speckled trout, one and an
additional 14 in one day, provided
the additidnal 14 in the aggregate
weigh. not more than 10 noundS;
not 16ss than seven inches in
length, inrovvri trout, five in one
day, not lbss than seven inches in
length. Rainbow trent, five in
one day, not less than Seven in-
ches in length.
Tourists
Do not forget the ever present
danger of forest fire In Ontario.
A cigarette from a car window or
a careless fire in the bush or
around your cottage could Cost
the province many thousands of
dollars , possibly your life,

What's Wrong With Clinton's Kids?
Do Peewees Want Baseball League?
tfrauRsatss, .4rxr`z -1957
GUNTON, INVINS-BacQAD
That is the question that Doug
Walton, chairman of the Kinsmen
Peewee Baseball League, is ask-
ing these days.
TWo weeks ago all interested
players were asked to fill in an
application form that 'was printed
in that issue of the News-Record.
It seems that there are very few
boys interested 'in, baseballnthis
season as only" 'appliCations
have been received.
There is one thing that is ceiL-
tain. If the 'players aren't in-
lerestecl enough to fill out a sim-
ple application they shouldn't ex-
pect too much in the way of as-
sistance' froth the men who devote
their time to the organization of
the league.
The peewee ball players will be
given just a few more days to get
their applications into the hands
of Doug Walton. the response
is not satisfactory, then there can
be no league as there Will not be
enough players," to fill out the
teams, Plans will be made for
those who have shown interest.
