Clinton News-Record, 1984-05-09, Page 19• ars By Stove Cooke Be prepared Goose hunting! It seems a long way off, but that haunting call stirs the blood whenever it's heard, be it southward bound flocks in the fall or'eturning adults, ready to breed a new generation. Successful goose hunting demands careful preparation, and lots of it, and one of the best ways I know of getting started is to read the book "Goose Hunting" by Charles L. Cadieux. In its third printing and in an affor- dable soft cover design, Chuck Cadieux has cut through all the "filler" and "cutesy" routines often found in books and gone straight to the meat of the matter. Chuck starts the book off with an anecdote of . how he, as a young boy, got hooked on goose hunting and goes straight into the use of decoys and calls. He describes in detail the different methods of goose hunting - have ,you heard of "body booting"??? - and ends up with some of his favorite recipes. From cover to cover, it's packed full of in- formation by a man who knows his subject inside out. Goose Hunting is published by Stoeger Publishing Company, and is available in sporting goods stores, or by writing Stoeger Canada Ltd., 169 Idema Road, Markham, Ontario, L3R 1A9. +++ And while you are goose hunting, protect your favorite shotgun with one of the best products on the market today. At Hoppe's, pride in products offered to the North American shooter and gun fancier has always been the watchword. Since Frank Hoppe first created his famous No. 9 Solvent almost a century ago, new products are not just "thrown" into the marketplace. 'They're proven first. It's always been that way and will continue to be. Hoppe's pro- ducts are not always the cheapest but they are always the best value because they are the best quality available. And so it is with Hoppe's MDL, their moisture displacing lubricant that will out - protect anything on the counter today. Now that's a bold statement, but in independent- ly supervised tests, MDL has been proven to last longer, better shield metal and inhibit rust more efficiently than any other pro- duct. Unlike other moisture displacing lubricants, MDL is made only by Hoppe's. There is no chance for a slip up from batch to batch. The same people who supervise the creation of No. 9 Solvent do the same with MDL. Their reputation for quality is on the line and they're not about to have it tarnish- ed. Even though MDL has been offered for a few years, its superior formula is just now beginning to- be "appreciated. Shooters, anglers and hobbyists of all persuasions are discovering that the few extra cents per can is an investment in peace of mind. MDL is available in 4 oz. Aerosol containers at your Hoppe's dealer. You know you can trust the No. 9 Label!

(Shelley McPhee photo Juniors get sponsors By Rod Hilts Judging by the • response .of local merchants, the Junior C Mustangs have renewed support throughout the town.

The team will also to be able to purchase.a helmet and cage and a Cooper -all outer shell with each• $200 sponsor. 'we nag just an excellent response from the merchants,” Mr: Wiggins said The sponsor route is expected to sale the team a considerable amount. Earlier this year, trainer Bryan Marriage estimated that the team would be looking a $5,050 expenditure for -equipment this season. Sticks, gloves, tape and pucks still have to be purchased. Buses not coaches The Mustang executive decided travelling to their hockey garnes would be cheaper on a school bus rather than on a coach that was used last season. Mr. Wiggins said that this season the team will use a 48 -passenger bus from Murphy's Bus Lines in Clinton for $125 a trip. Last year they used a coach from. Sherwood Transportation 'Inc. of Goderich, for $180 a trip. "It will represent a major savings and it's more convenient with Murphy's in town. The bottom line is it's a Clinton team so we should have local transportation," Mr. Wiggins said. Pulsar Quartz For Mom. She'll understand how much you feel.
