BY PAUL ELUS
Ne matter what sport you play, you must
learn it sometime. People may have natural
talent at one particular sport,but they had
to learn the rules; and how to play, first,
For soccer players, their first contact
with the game, other than a backyard
match, is usually. the Squirt team in the
local soccer league. At least, that's how it:
is in Huron. County-
The Huron Minor Soccer Assoication has
a setup of teams similar to minor hockey.,
Players aged Sii to eight years start 'out on
their first organized team,: called the
Squirts. Usually, by the • end of a .few
seasons at this• level, the players have
developed a fair understanding of the
game,' as well as a bit of skill at it- Then it's.
on up through a series of teams, divided
according to age: Then of course there a
few men's teams. A very superior player
might even set his sights on the Toronto
Blizzards of the North 'American Soccer.
League, but a local person has yet to make
it that far. Maybe that's why the Blizzard
isn't doing too well this. year!.
Despite its small size, St Columban;
seems to produce more good teams than
most . other areas. And there is always
plenty of new talent coming along trying to
keep up the tradition. This year, so many
boys tried out for the Squirt team that they
had to be 'divided up into two teams; Each
oft hese teams has two coaches. The "A'
team is run by Steve Murray and John
Ryan, while Larry Cook and Tom Schoon
derwoerd'arc in charge of the "B" .group,:
With 11 players on the field at a time,
and two teams, this accounted for 22 of the
24 boys who signed up,:. leaving one
substitute for each team., This presents a
problem. There are a few situations where:.
two .brothers play on the same team. If
their family decides to go On vacation,the
team will be left short one player.
Besides the two St Columban teams;
there are Squirt organizations in Clinton,.
Goderich, and Seaforth. Each ream plays
each other team twice in the season, as
well as any exhibition games they can; set
up on their own. Coach Murray's team won
the only game they've played this season.
That was two weeks ago, when they.
defeated Seaforth 7-0. But don't worry
Seaforth fans; they always get better as the
season progresses. .
Steve has been coaching soccer for four.
year now. His first team, like this onewas,
the Squirts- For the next two summers he
coached Mosquitos, This spring he decided
to go back to the Squirts, partly because
they are more fun to coach, and partly
becausehis son Craig plays on the team
now in his 'f rst year: Craig's brother,
Dean, is•the' team waterboy.
In his first year of coaching minor soccer,
St4eve's team won the HMSA Squirt
championship. The team • has ' `lots of
potential," says the coach, and he is quite
confident that they will vin again this time.
Perhaps it is their first year at playing
soccer, the boys are very enthusiastic. And
of course there is always an abundance of
parents on the sidelines to cheer little
Johnny. on.

The bass,. season
The last Saturday, in:' June traditionally
signals the opening of the bassseason. in
Southwestern Ontario, but it's a good idea
to start getting ready for it now. Those bass
plugs should be gone over now and the
hooks . touched up with a fine stone or
jeweller's file and line shouldbe replaced.
on fishing ;reels. :Anticipation is half
the fun
when it comes to fishings and'. tinkering
with your equipmentbefore the season.
opens . brings that "anticipation" to its
highest level.•
The daily limit for smallmouth and'.
largemouth bass is six 'in one day. This
means,'either six largemouth or six small
mouth, or any combination thereof, and.
this figure also represents the possession'
limit for these fish.
At first glance, the difference between
smallmouth and largemouth bass seems
almost: impossible to determine. It is
actually quite easy. Close the mouth on the
fish andlook at it with a side view. If the
back of the mouth (the technical, term is
upper maxillary hinge) extends past
vertical line drawn- through the middle of
the eye, it's a largemouth :.also has a
separation between the, spiny part of the
dorsal fin and the soft .part- The
smallmouth also displays a row of dark
vertical bars along.its side.
One of the; reasons °that. I believe bass
fishing is so popular is because they will
respond to anyone's fishing style: The bait
fishermancan catch them with worms and
minnows, and really clean up with
:helgramites and crayfish. If you are a
novice fisherman; however, I would
suggest you avoid using crayfish initially.
hey have a habit of crawling under rock
where they are safe, and trying to keep the
little critters out wherethey can do some
good is often very frustrating for the
beginner..
The lure fisherman can collect his share
of bass using spoons or spinners: While
most ofthese flashers will produce bass
sometimes, the Mepp's ' spinners have
proven to be the most consistent for me.
The. Mepp's Bus Killer: Kit offers a good
selection of colours (bass have been proven
to have colour perception) and are a good
size for the bulk of your , fishing
requirements.
The assortment of plugs
that is available
ble'.. e p g,
for• bass, is almost astounding: They all
-work,but my favourites are the Rapala,
Deep Dive River Runt, Hawaiian Wriggler;
Jitterbug, Hula Popper and Crazy Crawler.
Of these, the surface lures are probably the
most dramatic, and fun to use. They are all,
designed to setup a commotion on top of
the water, and being ableto watch what
your lure is doing makes fishingjust that
much :more interesting; There are few
things that I find as relaxing as listening to "
a jitterbug gurgle and pop its way back to
the boat on a still lake at dusk. And when a
big fish hits a surface lure in a volcano of
water --WOW! 1 !• If'usually .takes about half
an hour for my heart to settle down after
that. happens.
One of the things that I really enjoy
about bass fishing is that they are easy to
release without harm to fight another day.
If the fish is grasped by the lower jaw, it
hangs immobile while you work the hooks
out. This minimizes any damage that might
be done to , the fish through improper
handling. A fish that has, been properly
released has provided you with a great deal'.
of excitment andenjoyment; has the
potential of doing the same for someone
else; and is still in its natural habitat able
to spawn and propagate its own species.
One last word about bass fishing. If all
your normal fishing techniques fail and you
aren't catching anything. don't be afraid to
try even the most ridiculous technique you
zan think of. When bass fishing, it's often:.
the unorthodox technique that brings home
the bacon, and you may be the one to have
the last laugh.
