DRY FLY TYING TOPIC OF FISH AND GAME CLUB Tom Norris Gives Pointers; Ivan Kauffman, Wounded Veteran, Speaks President Inducted T. G.
Norris, of Caledonia, dis -oQ h- hobb fl imeng-of his Work at the Shippensburg Fish and Game association Tuesday evening. One of the largest crowds to attend in recent months heard him discuss the delicate art of tying dry flies that lure the traut. "Even physical handicaps can be overcome for this task," said Mr, Norris. "I have a friend who has only one arm but he can still tie flies expertly. I have received requests from veterans' hospitals to submit information on how he does the work." "The ordinary individual would think it was impossible," Norris continued, "but my friend goes about it in a way that makes the job look easy.
He uses a magnetized vise to hold the hook firmly in place and fastens feathers and other parts with adhesive tape until tightened by wire. His system is simnle and effective," said Mr. Norris. "It is also something to see him land a trout." "He uses a free running reel which allows ample play in the line and then takes up slack with his teeth. He repeats this procedure until the trout is close to the bank and then when quite sure the fight has been finished, he kicks the fish out on the bank," said the speaker.
"Tom" Norris, one of the best dry fly fishermen in this section of the state, equipped local anglers with many valuable tips for the opening day of the season, April 15 Herman Gruver, vice-president, presided in the absence of George Rockwell, president, who was inducted into the armed forces Wednesday.

TROUT SEASON OPENS AT 5 A.M. SUNDAUPR. 15 Even With Tackle Scarce Many Anglers Will Line The Streams Williams Grove Exhibit Even with all the scarcity of rods, reels and tackle reported in Shippensburg and neighborhood stores, all indications point to every stream having almost as many fishermen as trout when the season opens at 5 clock next ssunaay morning. Local anglers anticipated April 15 by preparations of tackle for weeks back. Flies have been readjusted or new ones made and many a sportsman prelerring worms has that bait ready.
While most anglers will take an early start so each can spot his favorite bend or nook in one of the valley's many trout streams, -others will go down to Williams Grove park where there will be a special fly casting and fishing exhibition. Yellow Breeches creek, considered one of the- state's best trout streams, has a program arranged by Roy Richwine, owner of the park, which will attract unusual interest. Special prizes will be awarded to fishermen for the largest fish in the respective classes: brook, brown and rainbow. Entries may be filed at the registration booth at the park between 4 and 6 o'clock in the afternoon. Prizes will be awarded immediately following a fly casting and fishing exhibition which will take place in Richwine's privately stocked Spring Lake at 5 o'clock the same evening.
Outstanding sportsmen, writers and champion fly casters will participate, including Fred Everett of Monroe, New York, one of America's best nature artists and writer of National prominence; Bob Mc-Cafferty, Palmyra, champion fly caster and writer for "Pennsylvania Lewis Kunkel, Harrisburg, organizer of the "Harrisburg Hunters' and Anglers' Association" also an ardent hunter and fisherman; James Kell, president of the Consolidated Sportsmen's clubs of Cumberland county, and an angler deluxe: Alex Sweigert, Lewistown, outdoor writer and editor of the "Pennsvlvania Angler" for more than 12 years; Charles Fox, Sports writer, angler, former editor and a iflv caster second to none; also, 'Alfred "Sparse-grey-hackle" Miller of New York City, a leading light of the famous Anglers' Club of New York, an outdoor writer and sportsman of national prominence. No election of a successor to Dr. Albert L. Rowland, president of Shippensburg State Teachers College, was made at the meeting of trustees of the college held Wednesday evening. Five candidates for the office appeared before the trustees.
These were Dr. Earl Wright, dean of the college; Dr. Paul Cressman, Ilar-risburg; Dr. Ralph Heiges, Indiana, Dr. Frank Faust, Chambers-burg, and Dr.
Wilbur Lecron, Ashland. In the meantime the state legislature has finally passed what is known as house bill 164 which may vitally affect the local college and all the 14 state teachers colleges. The bill has been signed by Governor Martin. This bill authorizes the trustees of any of the colleges to originate a program whereby the college plants may be diverted to any use whatsoever. The trustees having originated such a program, it then is necessary for the department of public instruction and the Governor to approve the plan.
If the plan then is approved in Harris-burg, any of the teacher college plants might be converted into a penal institution, a hospital for treatment of mental diseases, or any other of the numerous institutions operated by the commonwealth. The opinion generally prevails that while such a program must originate with the board of trustees, it means that suggestions for such a program would likely originate in Harrisburg with instruction to the trustees to. carry it out. Recently Dr. Howard K.
Petry, superintendent of Harrisburg state hospital, with another state employee, made a survey of the Shippensburg college property. House bill 164 was an administration measure. Its enactment and signing by the Governor has served to arouse much concern in teachers college circles. 66 CALLED FOR PHYSICAL ON FRIDAY, 13TH Franklin County Draft Board At Chambersburg Calls Local Men Preinduction Call 16 Sixty registrants of the Franklin county draft board and six registrants of other boards comprise preinduction call No. 16 and will leave at 7:40 Friday morning from the union bus depot, Chambersburg, for Harrisburg for physical examinations.

HOUNDS WIN FIRST GAME 3-2AT HOME Defeat Mechanicsburg in Thriller; Bolton Is Winning Pitcher Greencastle Next Dave Day's high school Greyhounds started off their 1945 baseball season Wednesday afternoon at Eckels field, turning back a veteran Mechanicsburg club 3 to 2. Dick Bolton, winning pitcher, who scored two runs and drove in the other, was given good support by his teammates who ate up sizzling grounders and high fly balls, looking for all the world like a club who knew what it was all about.
Mechanicsburg scored a run in the first inning when Anderson crossed the plate on a single by House and a long fly by P. Brandt. The Daymen tied it up in the third inning when Bolton brought in the first run of the year for SHS. The Maroon and Gray took a two-run lead in the fifth inning when Bolton drove in Jack Keen and then came home himself with what proved to be the winning run on Jim Wright's single. In a difficult sixth" inning Mechanicsburg pushed across another run.
The visitors managed to get a man on third in the last inning but were unable to score as Keefer sewed up the game when he caught House's long fly ball deep in center field. Shippensburg ab. r. h. o.

Chief Beck Requests Curfew The curfew ordinance came up for discussion and after Chief of Police Russell R. Beck had asked for authority to enforce curfew coupled with the request that the hour be made 10 o'clock each evening instead of 9:30 in the old ordinance for all children under 16 years of age. After some discussion as to methods of enforcement Borough Solicitor Hilton A. Russell made certain revisions of the language of the old curfew.
