The five year old tournament has become a fixture on the lakes of the Santee-Cooper and cat fishermen from a dozen states come to compete for over $2,000 in prize money and an additional $1,000 worth of merchandise and door prizes. The tournament’s $20 entry fee was designed to give everyone a shot at becoming a na tional champion. Jim Herring, owner and operator of Randolph’s Landing, conceived the toumment five years ago as a way to bring recognition to people who fish for catfish. A substantial increase in the price of a temporary out-of-state fishing license held down the numbei- of participants in last year’s tournament but the lowered price in effect this year is expected to bring many out of state fishermen back to lakes Marion and Moultrie. In addition to the prize money, every entrant receives a cer tificate certifying that they fished in the National Championship SATUMMY A SUNDAY SEAFOOD WANE* BUFFET iiirami *7.50 Price Support Loans May Be Available RALEIGH—John J. Cooper, said farm program participants who dispose of their 1987-crop high-moisture corn and grain sorghum through commercial cat tle feeders or store the commodi ty on the farm may be eligible for price support loans. Feeding to poultry, dairy herds & swine is excluded. To be eligible for high moisture loans, producers must certify that they owned title to the grain and the grain is eligible for price sup port on the date of the loan re quest, according to Cooper. Book Explains New Tax Laws The Internal Revenue Service today announced the availability of two new publications that ex plain the new tax laws.

They should also use the new booklet to review their withholding, making sure they will be getting the desired refund next year and do not owe a large amount of tax when they file their 1987 returns. Both Publication 920, “Explana tion of the Tax Reform Act of 1986 for Individuals’’, and Publication 921, “Explanation of the Tax Reform Act of 1986 for Business”, show how the new law compares to the old in easy-to-read chart form for a quick overview, follow ed by detailed articles Publication 920 has 15 articles on such topics as simplified and reduced tax rates, changes in the IRA rules, itemized deductions, and new limits on personal in terest. Publication 920 has a description of a variety of free tax help programs that IRS offers.

To protect the Commodity Credit Corporation’s interest, a lien search will be made on the commodities pledged for price support loan. If a lien is recorded on the crop, the farmer must ob tain either a lien waiver, a subor dination agreement, or the lienholder’s signature on the loan application before receiving loan proceeds.
