Ranger did. "We really appreciate the attention given to this project by so many peo- ple," said Ranger President, Forrest Wood. "Experts such as Babe Winkelman and Joe Bucher both made several trips to go over plans and details with our folks. Both took time to run and evaluate prototype boats with our R & D staff, and we were fortunate to have input from many of our customers, a number of whom are guides, fellas like Tom Howell of Min- nesota, and lots of other-5,4/ft was a group effort that really sees to have evolved the right boat for all around fishing." The new Ranger "Fisherman" (model 680T...the "T" is for "tiller") was quietly unveiled at the Milwaukee Boat Show. Rumors were afoot that Ranger was developing a new boat for the market, but Milwaukee offered the first opportunity for public viewing. "The response was overwhelming!" stated Ranger National Sales Manager, Charlie Hoover. "We are more than pleased with the results to date." While the Ranger "Fisherman" was designed primarily to meet the needs of north -central and northeastern fishermen, there has been considerable interest in the boat from knowledgeable anglers all across the country. Wherever the boat has been shown, Naturally Speaking fishermen who have accumulated many hours on the water, and especial- ly professional guides, have corn- mented on the comfort, handling characteristics, and particularly the convenient layout. "That boat should appeal to walleye and bass fishermen in Qntario" and "Crappie fishermen will love it" were two comments. Winkelman calls it, "...possibly the most versatile fishing boat yet" and Joe Bucher remarked, "The unique new bow is unlike any, Ranger you've seen. Engineered to take rough water, this baby will take anything that Mother Nature throws at it! It's the driest boat I've ever seen!" Many Ranger dealers now have this boat on display and additional informa- tion may be obtained from your dealer or from Ranger Boat Company, P.O. Box 179, Flippin, AR 72634 or phone (501) 453-2222. GOLD MEDALLION, a Premium Field and Range Bore Cleaner and Con- ditioner is innovative. Made up of very fine, saponified lubricants and a non - embedding and non -abrading natural earth material, it is superior at remov- ing all types of fouling. The immediate effect is a noticeable increase in the precision and accuracy of the gun. Secondly Gold Medallion is fast and easy — no soaking! And thirdly, it is the `only product of its kind to clean non - chemically and, therefore, is NON- TOXIC. Another innovative feature is that it does not evaporate and requires using only 1/4 the amount as compared to solvents. Besides economical, it is SAFE! This bore cleaner will not harm the inside of the gun. In fact, when used as directed, Gold Medallion lends itself to increasing the life of a bore 3 to 8 times. Gun owners are extremely pleased with the results they are seeing. The first ' and second winners of the smallbore competitions held at Camp Perry won using this product. The response at the Grand American tour- nament was excellent.

"We considered putting in a steel roof, but people have been leery of it, and Soprema is too costly," Linda Reid said, chairman of the arena committtee for the recreation committee., "We will get 10 to 15 years out of a shingle roof." A motion was passed to ask for tenders to put the new shingle roof on the arena. "We should ask for tenders locally," Ron Mckay, chairman of the committe said. "I would like to see a local company get the job." - Clinton Director of Recreation, Steve Campbell, explained to the committee that a safety inspection of the stage in the arena was requested by a concerned citizen who did not -think the stage looked safe where it was suspended by cables over the ice surface. The committee is awaiting a report from the town engineer B.M. Ross amd Associates Ltd. of Goderich on the stage. The preliminary report shows that the suspension is safe, Mr. Campbell said. "B.M. Ross had the concern that the two inch by four inch boards used in the struc- ture may not be adequate, but they were just telling us so we can be aware of what can happen," he said. Because of this initial inspection, a yearly inspection will now take place. If the structure does not pass inspection as to the size of the boards used, the stage will have to be replaced with a stronger structure. Another arena issue discussed at the meeting was the replacement of the window glass in some of the arena doors with safety glass. "We got three new steel doors for the front end of the arena, and when they came in they had window glass, but we thought they had safety glass," Mr. Campbell said. These windows, as well as others will be preplac- ed, as safety glass was budgeted by tho committee. The committee was told that the Op- timists had agreed to purchase a drag for maintenance purposes, an equipment box, a set of bases, a limer, a hundred foot tape, home plate and a pitcher's rubber for the new Optimist Park. At the park, on Canada Day, July 1, a dedication ceremony will take place. As part of the day's events baseball games will be played between the four groups involved in the construction of the diamond. The four teams involved will be from the Optimists Club, the town' council, the recreation committee, and the Fish and Game Club. Grant Received A grant was received from the Tuckersmith Township in the amount of $500. "This is a grant we receive every year to help us out, as some of their people use our recreation facilities," Mr. Campbell said.' Accounts were ordered paid on $5,064.65.
