Fish and Game club news by Stan Falconer As a member of the Huron Fish and Game Con- servation Association (you can see why we don't use the full name all the time), and a member of the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters, I hear and read much about fishing and hun- ting. I remember as a kid living in Clinton fishing the Bayfield River, the Maitland River and any old stream we liked. Armed with a willow stick, a ball of string, (saved off the grocery tie-ups) a hook and a couple of old nuts of different sizes to use for sinkers, surprising enough we sometimes caught some pretty good fish. As I read these stories and listen to the talk I find I don't know how to fish any more. To go about fishing the way they tell it, a person must re- quire substantial wealth just to acquire the equipment but, I don't know how long you have to spend at it to ac- quire all the knowledge some of them spout. I do carry a fishing rod (kind and vintage unknown) with a reel of some kind that allows me to throw the line out into the water. I got a box of Nooks and lures but I don't know what lure to use for what. I still go out and dip a line in the water a couple of times a year but I don't get any fish. Once in awhile it's nice to just put a worm on the hook, an old nut found ly- ing in the trunk of the car and sit on a log and let the worm wiggle in the water. An hour or two of this kind of fishing on a nice summer day can be very relaxing. When I travel to Goderich at this time of year and see those few stalwarts standing in the river mouth casting their lines in . sub -zero weather, I can only think that they like to fish more than I do or, they are just hungry for fresh fish and want to catch their own. I suppose for this type of per- son, fishing now is just as relaxing for them now as it is for me in the summer. Then there are the fishermen who have to be dishonest, fishing with nets and spears in posted streams and hatchery ponds. It is gratifying to see that the ones of this type who are unlucky enough to get caught are being fined real fines for a change, up to $5,000 in some instances. This should have happened years ago and maybe this type of thing would not hap- pen today. Darts last Wednesday evening was enjoyed by all with Mary Parks, Frank Garrow and Don Switzer tak- ing six points, while Betty Switzer and Joe Robbins on- ly took one. The euchre party on Satur- day night was quite suc- cessful with ten tables of players. Prize winners were Pearl Shanahan high lady, Vic Falconer high man, Bet- ty Switzer ladies' lone hands and Mark Thomas men's lone hands with Sandra Johns getting' the ladies' booby prize and Allan Parks the men's booby prize. After cards we were entertained by Sharon Kyle, who sang and played some old favourites. We're looking forward to another euchre party in January. Bingo last Sunday was well attended and Verna Schaaf and Peggy Parks won share-the-wealths by themselves, while the other one was split with Wilma McMichael, Alice Jackson and Heather Plumsteel. The jackpot was also split between Mrs. Laws and Mrs. Watson. Don't forget the Christmas supper and dance on December 19 and tickets are now on sale for the New Year's Eve Ball.

(Larry Dillon photo ) Employees share Champion's profits GODERICH - Despite an unstable economy, more than 1,000 employees of the Champion group of com- panies will share in excess of a quarter of a million dollars in corporate profits this year. Chief Executive Officer Bruce Sully announced this week that ; all employees in the Champion group would participate in profit sharing for the fiscal year ending July 31, 1981. Under the terms of the profit sharing program, half of the money is placed in trust to strengthen the employee's long term financial security and the remainder is paid in cash. Mr. Sully said he recognized that all levels of the organization had risen to the challenge of increasing productivity while reducing costs in the period from August 1980 to J my 1981. "The plan introduced in February 1980 has already been a success. Today's profit demonstrates how well a trained team can over- come the problems in today's economy. When that economy improves, and it will improve, Champion people can look forward to even greater profits to be shared," Mr. Sully noted. Goderich Township council news GODERICH: A bylaw regulating storage facilities and disposal of liquid Manure will be looked into by a special committee established by Huron County council. At its November session, council set up the commit- tee. To report no later than February 1982, the commit- tee will include both 1981 and 1982 wardens and chairmen of planning board, board of health and development committee. Reeve • Paul Steckle of Stanley Township, acting chairman - of the executive committee, said the problem is of "grave concern" to ur- ban and rural areas. He hopes the by-law, when pass- ed will be used by all municipalities. In other business, council accepted the resignation of R. S. Cummings, develop- ment officer, effective November 13. No immediate action will be taken to hire a replacement, but ad- ministration and planning departments will take over the information role. The two departments will look in- to and recommend alter- natives for the role of development officer. Council will take no fur- ther action in appointing an energy auditor, a position held by Mr. • Cummings. Prior to his resignation, Mr. Cummings, as energy auditor, did a preliminary study to discover the need for a complete energy audit of Huron County buildings and equipment. The preliminary study showed 211 . buildings and 234 vehicles under the jurisdic- tion of Huron County. An application to clear 3.4 acres of trees consisting of soft maple by Terry and Warren Zinn of Lot 5, conces- sion 10, Ashfield Township was approved. Reeve War- ren Zinn declared a conflict of interest and did not speak or vote on the matter. The applicant is to provide cer- tification of a drainage outlet for an area proposed to be drained before any clearing is started. Council received the an- nual report of the land divi- sion committee, listing several fee increases. Effec- tive January 1, 1982 applica- ` tion fees will increase from $50 to $100, administration fees on approved land severances will increase from $125 to $200'and a defer- ral fee of $50 will start on all applications deferred. Reeve William Elston of Morris Township said the fees are excessive and said ad- ministration costs should be cut. The land division commit- tee of County Council from Nov. 1, 1980 to Oct. 31, 1981 received 126 applications. Of these, 91 were approved, 19 rejected, 16 are waiting fur- ther action. Twelve applica- tions were appealed to the Ontario Municipal Board. Few lice cases in Perth STRATFORD - Perth County is only experiencing "little flares" of head lice cases, Medical Officer of Health Dr. Susan Tamblyn repor- ted. After concerns regarding the situation were raised by Reeve Carl Vock, Dr. Tamblyn said 12 to 15 cases have been reported, bit have also been cleaned up.
