Delmer Butler of Sidney (?nrn ered the flr.n mark on April 29 when he landed a 3-pound. 15 ounce crappie. A little over a month later on May 12, George F'ord of M.idild took a 3-pound, 15-ounee smuilmouth bass from "Big Mac." The last recorfl o fall came on July 14 when C'lctus Jaeobs 'n City League W errught, the scales were sent to the Fisheries Dtvlnlon for atring.

Plattsmouth High has drawn Tekamah s.s a first-round op ponent in the 1963 Ak-S.ir-Ben Pheasant Hunting 'Is Still Good' LINCOLN Game Division Di rector M. O. Steen today re minded hunters that plenty of top pheasant shooting remained for them in the pheasant season which continues through Jan. 20. Most areas report only light hunting pressure. Traditionally most of Nebraska's pheasant hunting Is done in the early weeks of the season, even though hunting geneially Im proves as the season ages. Steen noted thnt even though hunters are complaining that the pheasants are elusive, it Is this quality that makes Nebraska pheasant hunting one of the na tion's ton scattergun sports. "The pheasant cock Is our foremost game bird," Sfeen said, "and eluslver.ess is only one of his many fine game-bird qualities. He Is big, fast, color ful, and unexcelled as a table bird. He is perfectly capable of taking care of himself. Competi tion between the bird and the hunter is one of the redeeming features of pheasr.nt hunting a contest which the bird usually wins." Steen added no need to fear for the pheasant in any "cocks only" season, Including this one. "Wher. we end this winter's season," he said, "we will leave nearly half of our surplus cocks unhtirvusted. These roosters are completely surplus; they are not needed for propagation. We would produce Just as many chicks next soring if all surplus roosters were harvested." Steen also said that 1963 per mits are now on sale around the state. i Conference Basketball Tourna ment at Dana College In Blair. The meet begins Monday. Plattsmouth and Tekamah play the 7 p.m. game Tuesday. Pa pillion and Blair are matched at 8:30 Tuesday. . Monday night's first-round games are Ral.ston vs. Millard at 7 and Lewis Oentral of Coun cil Bluffs vs. Missouri Valley, Iowa, at 8:30. Semifinals are Thursday, Monday night's winners meeting I at 7 p.m. and Tuesdav nieht's winners at' 8:30. The championship game Is Fridiy at 8:30 p.m. after the semifinals losers have played for third place at 7 o'clock. On the records and on its per formance here last week, Blair High looms as the team to beat for the title. Blair is 4-1 through games of last Saturday. Ralston, 4-2, and Missouri Valley might be classed as dark horses. Pairing were drawn at a meeting of the coaches last Sat urday at Blair. Records of the teams through last week were: Blair 4-1, Ral ston 4-2, Missouri Valley 4-4, Plattsmouth 2-3, Millard 2-3, Tekamah, 1-5, Paplllion 1-5 and Lewis Central 1-8. Dana's setup for basketball Is said to be ideal with lots of good seating. Admission will be $1 for adults, 50 cents for stu dents with identification for each session.

Increases of from 10 to 50 per cent and more over last year are being paid for beaver, musk rat, and mink pelts. According to a local fur buyer, the increase is attributed to a larger demand j weekly Resolve To Be More Active In '63, Heart Assn. Urges The Nebraska Heart Associa tion today urged Cornhuskers to adopt the following New Year's resolution: "Resolved, that In 1963, I will get the regular exercise needed to improve my health." The Association recommended what It termed a common sense approach to exercise, as follows: "1. Select a form of exercise that Is compatible with your age and your physical condition. "2. Choose the exercise you like. If you approach the sub ject of exercise with a grim and Spartan attitude, you're bound to fall by the wayside In a short time. The Idea Is to fit physical exercise (whether outdoor hik ing or callsthentics) into your daily routine and then add some activities like bowling, More Fish Released In Louisville Lake LINCOLN Some 66,000 fish, including seven different spec ies, were released in Nebraska waters in late 1962, according to the Game Commission's lat est monthly report. Fish stocked included chan nel catfish, rainbow and brown trout, northern pike, perch, flathead catfish, and carp. Waters receiving fish includ ed Lake No. 1A at Louisville (carpi.

The first match was won by Palmyra with eight points and Elmwood five with four net serves. The second ma'ch was won by Elmwood with fifteen points and one net serve to Palmyra s seven points. In the third and deciding match for the game the Elm wood rflikers trailed at the end of the first four minutes. 6-2, but after changing courts they were able to hold Palmyra to one point wh'le earning seven points for themselves and at the same time over coming the disadvan tage of four net serves.

Over the past several years the number of trappers in t h e state has declined sharply be cause of low prices. The annual fur harvest, too, has dropped off, according to the Game Com mission records for the last 11 years. In 1951-52 the average price per beaver pelt was $10.33. Dur ing the past season the average was $6.54. Mink prices in 1951 52 averaged $16.69 and reached an all-time low of $9.61 during the 1961-62 trapping season. For muskrat the average in 1951-52 was $1.16 while in the 1961-62 season the price reach ed a new low of $.49. This decline in the value of fur led to a corresponding drop In the number of trappers. A peak was reached In the 1952-53 season when there were 5,310 ac tive trainers, but this number dipped to 2,503 during 1961-62. With the rise in value of furs this year It is hoped more per sons will become interested in hitting the trapping trail. Game technicians, through surveys, have found that many of the furbearers are vastly underhar-vested. 'Hospitality' of Nebraskans Praised LINCOLN While Nebras kans generally are most pride ful of their pheasant hunting, the sport took a back seat to the state's hospitality in a letter from a recent visitor here. T. M. Latiar of Overlmd Park, Kans., writing to Oame Com mlsion Director M. O. Steen of a pheasant hunting trio here recently, made special note of the friendliness of the people. "We want to give our thanks to the wonderful people of your state," the Kinsan wrote. "The hospitality was Just terrific." He continued: "We'd like to say especially a 'Hats Off to the friendly people of the Arapahoe area." Lamar made no mention of how many pheasants he bagged. FELLOWS, PLEASE! A trio of Blair players founded as one of their teammates and Greg Taylor of I'lutts mouth struggle for possession of the bail in last Friday night's re look on dumb-1 serve game here. The final score was a little disturbing for the trio too, Plattsmouth winning 57-53. Paul Dudley White, M.D., noted heart specialists: We seem tn delight In the ab surd belief that we must avoid strains . . . that we must pamo er ourselves and not walk up stairs or work physically hard, or mentally, either whereas on occasion midnight oil should be burned." Tractor Maintenance Short Course Set LINCOLN A short course on the selection and maintenance of tractors and power units will be held at the University of Ne braska College of Agriculture January 28-30. Topics to be discussed during the short course will include ignition systems, fuel systems, oil, tractor selection and engine condition. Farmers and others planning to attend should write: Department of Conferences, Nebraska Center for Continu ing Education, University of Ne braska, 33rd & Holdrege Streets, Lincoln, Nebraska. roller-skating, swimming,) ten nis, golf or other ln-s e a s o n Winter Feeding? LINCOLN With the advent cf winter In Nebraska, the peren nial question of winter feeding quail and pheasant again arises, the Game Commission said.. Technicians hve proved that starvation Is raiely a cause of pheasant mortality .and seldom Is responsible ' for significant quail losses in this state. Costs of winter feeding makes it impractical to do so on a large scale. The Game Division of the Commission has estimated it would cost $17,000 per day to feed five million pheasants over the state. This figure does not Include the cost of distributing the food. Blizzards, not starvation, are the biggest pheasant killers. A single blizzard can kill more pheasants In 24 hours than star vation will in 10 years. The best method for Insuring more pheasants Is to develop a well-balanced habitat with the emphasis on good permanent cover. With email almost the same rule holds true. However, they are in the northern end of their range in this state. The bob white's main range in Nebraska includes only the southern and southeastern portions of the state. . Quail have a limited home or cruisir.g range in which thCy must find food and cover. If food Is not found within this range, chances are the bobwhites will move into a new area or perish I early in the winter. The reduction of winter losses as well as other mortalities can best be accomolished by in creasing habitat wlrch Includes adequate cover and food. Emer- j gency feeding programs on a large scale are doomed to fail ure before they start. sports. "3. Once you've worked out a reasonable schedule, try hard to let nothing Interfere with It. "4. Be prudent. If you haven't had much exercise since you left school, don't try to start where you left off. If your age and physical condition warrant a re turn to strenuous activities, work up to the.se exertions gra dually by daily moderate exer cise. "5. Do more walking and less riding. Unless the distance is too great, walk to work and walk when you go shopping. "6. Begin your exercise rout ine with a walk to your doctor's office for a physical examina tion; he will tell you if some forms of exercise should be avoided. "7. Finally, try that most dif ficult form of exercise, namely, pushing yourself away from the table to avoid obesity." ASHLAND Mrs. Ivan Armstrong Phone 944-8136 and A4rs.
