The weekend series actually opens in Seaforth Saturday with the same Michigan boys playing separate school teams from the Stratford district. John McCarroll, physical education consultant for Huron-Perth separate schools is in charge of arrangements for the weekend. McCarron who was a teacher at JAD McCurdy school a few years back is attempting to arrange an exhibition game Sunday afternoon in Zurich between the Zurich Lions and a team from either CKNX Wingham or the Seaforth Optimists. McCarron was in our office Tuesday morning and we had the pleasure to listen to several interviews he taped over the weekend at a physical education conference in Ottawa. Of interest locally, was the interview with F/L Bill McArthur who played hockey in the district when he was stationed at RCAF Centralia in the early 1950s. McArthur has been stationed to 14 countries since he left here and was recently transferred to Comox, British Columbia where he will be specializing in submarine warfare. One of the other speakers at the convention was Dr. Bill Corban who wrote the 5-BX physical fitness progam for the RCAF. He spent four summers at Centralia working on this program. We also listened to Russ Jackson and heard the ex-Ottawa Rough Rider quarterback say a regular running program was his method of getting in shape for the football season and never lifted a weight in training. Ice Fishing Not so long ago the law abiding winter angler shivered over a single fishing line. His less principled neighbour chopped an extra hole and kept one eye peeled for the conservation officer. He argued, when caught, that it was unrealistic to expect a single dangling line to produce a reasonable return of fish for effort expended and furthermore, patrolling two holes _kept him warmer and less bored than his conscientious friend. The fish and wildlife branch of the department of lands and forests conceded the point and the law was relaxed to allow the Ontario ice fisherman two fishing lines. So the honest-angler was able to keep a little busier and happier during the long hours out there on the ice and, of course, enjoyment is the desired product of angling. The measure had the added effect of revealing many of the former two-holers in a true light when they immediately started using three lines. Having fingered the cheaters in the game, conservation officers starting enforcing the two line limit with a firm hand. As a result fishing is more fun for almost everyone (a game without rules soon loses its flavour), the exceptions being those who are out of pocket say $25.00 for the misuse of 25c worth of fishing gear. Echoes of the snowmobile boom are resounding from all facets of the winter angling question. Take, for example, the matter of distance between the two permitted fishing poles. When the extra line privilege was granted, most anglers were still on foot, .and it was logically assumed that the two lines would be so placed that the angler could keep one eye on each tip-up, and therefore meet the legal requirement that he be "tending" them. But now some owners of high speed snowmobiles reason that they might be at opposite ends of the lake, or on two adjacent lakes for that matter. However, in the eyes of the law the original assumption still stands. Then there is the question of how much hardware may be hung on a fishing line. The variety of gear used by ice fishermen is endless but there are only two basic kinds, baited hooks and artificial lures. The legal limit is four hooks on each line but each of those four hooks, if part of an artificial lure, can consist of a gang (a gang means a group of hooks manufactured to act as a single hook) of up to three hooks. But, in almost all ice fishing, bait (minnows, worms, etc.) rather than an artificial lure, is used to induce the fish to bite the hook. And the limit on baited hooks is four hooks - period, whether they be clustered in a "gang", hung on spreaders or strung along the length of the line. Huron Park gets lead in local Rec hockey Huron Park took over sole ownership of first place in the Exeter and district Rec hockey league with a 6.3 win over Newby Tire in one-half of Thursday's weekly doubleheader.
