A letter received by a district resident from a Canadian soldier serving in Korea told of
the soldier visiting Goderich and the petch ,derby a few years ago and expressing the wish
that lie- was in , Goderich about now to try his luck off 'the breakwaters. And now
along comes a service picture showing a fishing scene in Korea. The North Korean farmer
shown at left turned up at Pammunlom recent ly with a fishing rig that intrigued both
United Nations and Red Chinese personnel in the area. His gear consists of a rod connect-
ed to a battery carried over the .shoulder and a small net on a long pole. He presses a but-
ton, shocks the fish and scoops them into the net, Judging by the .string held by the
Korean at right results are plentiful if not hefty. ' "Skip'' -_MacDonald, chairman of the
Goderich Lions club perch' derby committee, s aid he had received no entry -yet from the
North Korean'1armer shown 'in picture and had' not decided just what to do if the Korean •
and his illegal methods arrived to take part in the d,erby. ,The.Perch Derby opens on 'Thurs-
day, April 10, and Continues until .June 1Gth:
Have You Heard This One Before?
(From The Wiartun tarot
Apparently AViarton's merchants
are quite happy with everything

This points up the keen ,enthns-

(With Wiarton's industrial picture
as black . as it. has ever leen, or
