Show OasualUj j: Qbsetoincj : By Cliff Memmott 5 FIRST FISHING TRIP It has been said "there is a first time for everything." By the time you read this, (if you waste your time), I'll be heading for the High Uintas on my first fishing trip. I have always al-ways doubted the theory that an old dog can be taught new tricks, but Floyd Peterson, Arvin Bellon and Keith Todd have absolutely guaranteed they can teach me how to catch a fish 'I'll let you know next week how positively wrong they were Course I'm hoping that maybe they might be just a little bit right. NEVER-THE-LESS my 12-year old son Kent is responsible for his dad' taking his first fishing trip. And to do the thing up brown six of us, (Floyd is taking his son Dee along), are packing into the Brown Duck country for four days 1 thought for sure when it began to rain, 'these old hands at fishing would slow down and perhaps back out but the more it threatens, the higher their enthusiasm pressure grows - - - -they can literally see those big ones in their fry pans - - - Floyd says the more it rains, the better the fiSh 'will bite - - - I sure hope he's not kidding It will be worth all the discomforts a little damp weather might bring, to ex--perience the thrill my son is getting get-ting out of this anticipated trip. It has been said that "a little child shall lead' them" and I guess they meant "on a fishing trip as well." (Note to game warden At a.m. Wednesday the boss didn't have a fishing license. In all his hustle and bustle he forgot what he needed most of all.) --co-- Most people do what they are requested to do, successful people do a little more. --co-- A LITTLE AMUSED I had the honor last week of having a fine gentleman who is a candidate for governor drop into my office to get acquainted. He told me all the reasons why he was the man to be our next governor - - - The thing that was a bit amusing was one promise he has on a brochure he was passing out which stated that he would see that, "Every available position would be filled with a qualified member of his party." He failed to inquire about my politics, or weather I was a delegate to a state convention. - - c o - - It's always easier to arrive at a firm conviction about a problem prob-lem after you know what the boss thinks. --co-- ACHIEVEMENT RECOGNIZED-The RECOGNIZED-The appointment of Clayton Huber, honor student and top atthlete at Union High School the past three years, to a Utah State Agricultural College schorarship. which is worth $1,000.00, is a fine tribute to Clayton and to the school he will represent - - - No finer recognition could come to a more deserving young man whose ideals and moral standards are above reproach - - - Congratulations Congrat-ulations Clayton. --co-- PEEVE Pardon my idignant snorts At some fat dames wearing shorts. Monumental base stutfed in,, Tight as sausage in its skin. It's a crime, and also torts, For some dames to go in shorts! Carl Helm |
