Unagusla And Veterans
Open Tonight's Games;
Dayton Meets Pet Ten
Boosters Add 12-7
Victory Over
High School For
Eighth Straight
Unagusta meets the Veterans in
tonight's opening Softball game,
followed by a tilt between Dayton
and Pet Dairy. Monday's schedule
opens with Unagusta taking on the
Veterans and the Boosters playing
Pet Dairy.
Thursday night the Youth Club
was to play the High School fol
lowed by a contest between the
Boosters and Tannery.
Games early this week put the
Boosters farther in the league lead
with a 12-G win over the High
School on Monday night. Hob Put
nam pitched his eighth straight
victory, and although the school
team collected nine hits they were
never in a position to overcome the
early lead the Boosters run home.
Unagusta jumped into a three
way tie with Dayton and the Tan
nery for second place in league
standings by tripping Dayton 12-7
Tuesday behind Leonard Woodard's
hurling. Dayton, however, took a
close 4-3 decision from the Tan
nery on Monday with a new pitch
er. Hill, in the club line-up.
The first game Tuesday night
turned in an easy win for the
Veterans, who scored I!) runs and
allowed the High School only live.

Foremost in the mountain area.
Fontana Village. N. C . is an en
lire community designed for a holi
day resort, and it opened June 15
As early as JUne 10. tourists were
finding their way ill to Fontana
Lake, and I didn't see any camping
out or returning for want of a
place to spend the night.
Thirty-mile Fontana Lake is the
big attraction. Built during the
war years, it still lacks a bit being
full, but the bass haven't let that
make any difference. They've
moved right in to provide some ol
the better fishing of the entire
area, not forgetting Lake Chatauga.
Santeelah and lliwassee in the
neighboring locality.
If you care to tussle with the
trout in the areas of Blowing Rock,
Boone, Linvillc, Banner Elk, West
Jellerson or Little Switzerland,
you'll find the summer accommoda
tions open and doing a rushing
business. Lake Lure, supporting
some of the best fishing in several
seasons, is operating full blast,
along with Asheville, Henderson
ville. Black Mountain, Flat Rock.
Chimney Rock and Tryon accom
modations. In the sapphire country, Brevard,
Cashiers, Highlands and Franklin
have out the welcome mat. South
west of Franklin- is Hayesville
where (he fishermen push to try
their skill in Lake Chatuga. Deep
in the Smokies, Waynesville pre
sents Lake Junaluska: Bryson City
borders Lake Fontana; and Rob
binsville accommodates fishermen
from Lake Santeelah, while
Murphy caters to patrons of Lake
Hiwassee. The Sylva-Dillsboro
area welcome fishermen whether
they travel for stream or lake
fishing. This is a good time to go.
PISGAII SUPPORTS GOOD
FISHING
A total of 5,097 fishermen, fishing
a total of lfiti days caught about
23.407 trout in the streams and
lakes of the Pisgah ranger district
during the 1945 fishing season, ac
cording to reports released by W.
P. Duncan assistant supervisor of
Pisgah and Croatan national for
ests. The Pisgah ranger district com
prises the Pisgah game preserve
and the Sherwood cooperative
areas both supervised jointly by
the U. S. Forest Service jinjlJNorth
Carolina Department" of Conserva
tion and Development.
The report shows that the 23.
407 trout caught in the district
during the season weighed a total
of 3.973 pounds, 13 ounces, while
the average catch weighed 2.28
ounces. An average of approxi
mately 30 persons fished in the
district each day of the season
catching an average of 4.59 trout
a piece.
RABBIT INDUSTRY
The shortage of meat during the
war stimulated the development of
a rabbit industry, says the U. S.
Fish and Wildlife Service. It now
gives evidence of continuing
growth in the future, for the re
search carried on shows that do
mestic rabbits now outclass their
ancestors of ten or fifteen years
ago. They have better meat, finer
fur, are more economical to feed.
less subject to disease, and breed
more true to color, size, and shape.
and perhaps in some cases even
faster, if you please.
Small business chaterizes the
rabbit industry, most of the meat
and fur being produced in small
rabbitries whose owners devote
only part of their time. Yet the
amount of meat produced ranges
between fifteen and twenty million
pounds in 1944. Thafs a bunch of
bunnies any way you look it it.

few may even carry it for lunch
when they're out fishing.
Fishing this week-end should be
about the best since the season
opened.
Favorable weather and the end
of the full moon. point to this good
luck, in the opinion of the game
warden, Kufus Matcliffe. There
Imve been no heavy rains recently
to wash enough feed in the streams
for all the fish.
. With the full moon, trout and
bass were rising at night to feed
themselves, but now that the night
is not so bright the fish ave more
apt to be enticed by insects real
and hand made that flojit on the
surface during daylight hours.
In his rounds last week, as for
the past few week-ends, the ward
en found few anglws who had re
ported any luck. Practically all
streams are well stocked, so fly
casters have an opportunity now
for getting their limit and bringing
home something to take the place
of what tilt butcher didn't have.

WEDNESDAY, when Canton
and Hazelwood tossed fast
balls to each other on the local
field, marked the centennial
anniversary of that sport. On
June 19, 1846, two teams that
called themselves the Knicker

on a picinc ground in Hoboken,
N. J., called the Elysian Fields;

got 21 runs in an even inning
won is generally considered
the founder of baseball. The
New York team won, 21 to 1,
in the fourth inning. Interest
in the sport died for a while,
but in 1857 a national associa
tion was formed that adopted
the present set of rules, de
vised by Cartwright, and the
game spread like a wave over
the country. A historical mark

TOM LEE, owner of the Twin

recently to buy a large bus, but
took an extra day and went fish

is shown here with his prize catch
which weighed 82Mi pounds. Mrs.
Lee, however, excelled in fishing,
by catching two that weighed 85
pounds each. James Gwyn, also a
member of the party, caught two,

Mrs. Gwyn caught a 65-pounder.
wood team so we can better ap
preciate the record it has made.
The team's line-up has been con
tinually changed, due principally
to injuries. Smith was a pre
season loss due to an injury, and
Shook left for the eastern part of
the state to join an American
Legion nine. Fore broke his ankle
in the Beacon game, and Henry
had the same luck while playing
tag football at W.C.T.C., where he
is a student. Absent from the
Canton game was Milner, who went
to Camp Lejeune to get his dis
charge from the Marine Corps
(he's a first lieutenant who's been
here on terminal leave). Some of
these men, of course, will return
to the fold before loo long. Bud
Blalock has been talking to Bob
Putnam about "helping on the
mound, but Bob's arm has been
a little sore.
THE Canton game complet
ed Hazelwood's first round of
meeting all teams in the In
dustrial League. For your in
terest, here are the scores:
10 to 8 against Ecusta, 14-2
over Martel, 7 to 6 against
Green River, 7 to 4 against
Enka, 6 to 5 over Beacon, and
Saturday's 10-2 win at Sayles.
DAYTON'S softball team has
also had difficulties with injuries.
Jim Phillips', theirregluar pitcher,
had a bad ankle that dropped him
from the line-up, so his brother,
Raymond, took his place Tuesday.
Hill, a newcomer from Clyde,
pitched for the rubber company's
team the night before.

of ball here Wednesday afternoon,
but the offense was all with llj.cl

victory with a 5-0 for the records.
J. C. Burrell's injured righl ankle

He held Canton to four scattered

his lead in league pitching, rapped
out a double in two official limes

drive through third for two bases
But when Dayton grounded to sec

game they never got a man past

Buddy Robinson dropped a clean

Gordon Wyatt singled to bring him
home, but was thrown out by field

fourth, when Gordon and Eugene
Wyatt came home on a double hil
by Sam Lane, who was playing hi
first game for the locals.
The last half of the game was
featured by excellent fielding by
both teams; Glenn Wyatt and Bud
