dyko gold rush. The late Date Horton, Mount Albion, who helped construct this road, gave it the name that has held to this day.

I reached the beaver dam. which was my destination. shortly after ten otclock. In this sheltered oval amid the spruce the cold westerly wind didn't bother me too much although it was fairly nippy on the fingers. As I ran the line through the guides of the telescope steelrod I felt the thrill of the occasion. Onels surroundings has much to do with the Joy of fishing. I was all alone in one of Nature's seclud- ed nooks. In the spruce across the dam a squirrel scolded and chai- tered at something real or imag- inary; close o'erhead a pair of black ducks flew, barely skimming, the spruce spires. The husky. pet- ulant quack of the drake could be heard after they had passed be- hind the trees.

I baited up with a big blob of worms and used a line without either cork or sinker. The 'darlr. rippled water looked inviting as I waded out from shore. Incident- ally I was breaking in a set of armpit high rubber waders. equin- ped with draw strings and traces. ii. gift from the boys of the local E.C.M. Police Detachment when they gave me a parting send-off last December. when I had waded out to a point where I could feel the water tugging at my hips. with an attendant buoyant sensation. I made my first cast.

There is always a peciniar thrill

Sport Echoes l From

Prince county

Bill O'Connor. scout for the Brooklyn Dodgers. gave a very interesting talk to the baseball fans of Summerside and vicinity Wednesday evening. Bill has been at the business a long time and knows how to hold the in- terest of his listeners. He is ev- lilenlly a keen admirer of Ted Williams and gave the writers who; pan the big fellow quite a lzoing over. Naturally he has a high opinion of the Brooklyn team and predicts that they will be in the World Series next fall

m the season but the thrill was all 1 But. A few minutes later I tried a different spot. I watched the loops of the line lying on the water and Slowly straightening out as the bait settled. Suddenly I was aware that the loops were disappearing faster than the natural drag of the bait war-ranted...the first trout of the season was an B-incher with bright spots and yellowish belly.

I fished leisurely and by noon had it nice pan fish. My stomach told me it was time to eat so I decided to boil the kettle and let the six trout needed to round out the limit wait until later...getting the limit really didn't matter. I cleaned five of the smaller trout and placed them on a bed of moss. Then I selected two logs, slightly raised or! the ground to permit better draft, and started a. fire.

When the tea was ready and the bacon grease in the frying pan was smoking I dried the trout and rolled them in flour. In a matter of seconds the tantalizing aroma of frying trout mingled with the pungent scent of the spruce. Noth- iiig tastes better than fresh caught trout tried over in open fire in the woods. Stuffed with bread. butter. molasses and trout I still had room for 8 wedge of fruitcake of last December vintage. One of my wife's mysterious wax paper- wrapped parcels held gust that.

For a half hour I reclined on o bed of moss and let the world go by. I must have dazed for the wild clamor or wiidgecse brought me upright with a start. It was a large flock . approximately 100. moving noneastward. Later I caught two trout. which made four short of my limit. The last one was a 10-lncher. the top trout of the day. I had a rendezvous ion 3.00 PM. and time was running out, I took tlnie out to pick a bunch of Mayflowers for my better half... I did appreciate that wedge of fruit cake. I made the last lap oi my journey down the Klondyko Road balanced on the pole of a truck wagon behind Pius Kelly's fast stepping little grey mare. It's a long time since I rode on a truck wagon.

My friend was "Johnnie on the spot" and I made it back to the City in time to have trout for sup- per. I had enjoyed gny outing to the full. I had caught all the trout I wanted but the pleasure oi a day's iishlng'is not always meas- ured by the number of trails

connected with the first cast oflcaught.

some of O'Connor? pronounce- menu: Big leagues-I sometimes bunt the third 'al.r-ike. It is not always the wrong thing to do so- corclinvg to the Fiailbush scout. Used chiefly as surprise strategy. A strike is called on a batter it he does not check his swing be- fore his bat crosses the plate. The way we heard it, the batter must not "break his wrists." but Olconnor says that amounts to the some thing. May-be so. but we believe that the umpire could make a more accurate decision by wstchirsg the but rather than watching the batter's wrists. We never heard it put that way be- fore and we think it is a definite

improvement over the "wrist breaking" idea. we outlined a situation that

came up last year at the C. 85 B. diamond. The bases were full and one out. The infield were playing in close to out off a run and the batter hit a pop fly which fell at second base. Umpire ruled it not an infield tiy because the fly could not be handled by an in- fielder. Olconnor says we would have to accept the decision as you cannot question an u.mplre's judgment, but thought it unlike. ly that an lniielder couldn't get back to handle a pop landing in the vicinity of second base.

when a runner is stealing home on a pitcher's delivery, the bat- ter stays in the box as is his right, but must make no motions that could be considered by the umpire as intended to coniuse the catcher. if the catcher crossed the plate to cutcii the ball, it is double interference. the only one in the rule book. The runner comes home and the batter goes to first.

Lippy Gaudet's blntam hockey team, only island champs repre- senting Summerside. received tro- phles lrom Brig. Bill Reid. Di- rector of Physical Fitness, at this meeting.

The Summerside Town Council has oknyed the plan to build the new recreation grounds in Sum- rncrside. Work .is expected to start at once. and the high school ball diamond is to be extended and improved. It looks as if we

Bill O'Connor broke into pro baseball with Stufly Mclhnis. the famous first baseman oi the old Philadelphia Athletics. 0'- Connor played on the same New England team as Mclnnis. in his latter years O'Connor was an um- pire and seems quite willing to admit this shady part of his past.

Out of Their Own Mouths They Are Condemned! J

Premier's Office Prince Edward Island. January 5. 1951.

Hon. Smurf Gorsen. Minister of Justice. Ottawa, Canada.

Dear Mr. Gdrson:

The Government of Prince Edward island approves the we proposed amendments to the British North Am- erica Act respecting old age pensions and er provincial sales tax which were forwarded in your letter of January 2nd.

Very truly yours. J. WALTER JONES.

Remember That

Of all flie other nine Provinces in Canada only flie Lllieral Government of New Brunswick and flie C.C.F. Govern- ment of Seiskufciiewun approved flie amendments which would give fhe Provinces fire power TO IMPOSE THE SALES TAX.

J. Walter Jones was in such a hurry fo accepf l-his power fhof he wrofe Gurson on Jun. Sfli: New Brunswick's J. 3. Mc- Ndlr Wrofe 0!! l'lIe 6l'lI: and Saskofchewon's T. C. Douglas male on the Bfh. Bofh McNciir and Douglas in a hurry.

buf Jones was in a still bigger hurry.

The Liberal Government of Offeiwo has iumped ifs sales fax from 8 to lo per cent. You did nof receive that n e w s with good grace. did you? How would y o u like an extra sales fax-this lime a provincial one-of from fliree to five per cenf more? Ask the Iiffle woman who buysufiie groceries. Ask yourself wliaf if will amount fo on fliuf hinder or on fiiaf marine engine you would like to buy. . V A

According to a recenf press sfofemeof. Jones says His soles fax would mean an extra million and a half dollars ifo his Government. And he ought fo know. What a time some of his bureaucrafs could have on fhof exfra money! I

-J: L Ralslon. former liberal Minister from Prince County in the Mackenzie King Govemmenl. billerly fought against imposing any sales tax upon people because. as he said. they were harsh and unfair.

The Conservative Opposition at Ottawa fought it last week. The Conservatives of this Province fight it now! .
