Twelve of the 1(5 big league teams will make their spring train ing camps in 10 Florida cities, a departure from previous years. Tampa, in effect, will take on the atmosphere of a two-team ma jor league city in that National and American League teams will train in the west coast cigar city on Tam pa Bay. The Cincinnati Rcdlegs will be back and they arc welcoming the Chicago White Sox with open arms. When one team is traveling the other will use Plant Field for ex hibition games. Thus, from March fi through early April, Tampa will see games between major league teams practically every day. Thet White Sox are going to Florida after 18 seasons in Pasa dena. Calif. Generel Manager j Frank Lane feels it will give his | Chiso'x a hotter chance to dethrone, he world champion Yankees, for1 liis switch in training headquarters' means less traveling and more ac tion against rivals from both leagues, not to mention money and j climate. St. Petersburg is Florida's oth er city with two teams. The city where they give away newspapers if it rains after noon will again have the Yankees and St. Louis Cardinals. This spring a new city enters [ the picture, for the Pittsburgh Pirates will set up camp at Fort Pierce, between Vero Beach and Palm Beach on the east coast. The! Pirates last were in the Sunshine State in 1946 when they trained] at Miami Beach. Last year Branch Rickey took his team to Havana where it was difficult to bring teams except by air. As a result the Pirates played only two big league exhibitions in Cuba and two in Jacksonville. Six teams in each league will train in Florida. Resides the Redlegs. Cardinals and Pirates there will be the Milwaukee Braves at Bradenton, the Phila delphia Phillies at Clearwater and the Brooklyn Dodgers from the National League. The champion Dodgers, pluto crats in the spring and beaten by the Yankees in the fall, again will have two Florida bases. They open ed camp at Vera Beach. Feb. 24 and leave for Miami on March 6 to play the first of 12 exhibition games in effervescent Miami Sta dium. Six of the games are at night. Between March 15 and 24 they will play four day games at Vero Beach in a park opened last spring. Other American League teams in Florida besides the Yankees and White Sox are the Washington Senators at Orlando. Philadelphia Athletics at West Palm Beach, Boston Red Sox at Sarasota and Detroit Tigers at Lakeland in the peninnsula's center. The majors' four other clubs will train in Arizona. They are the Cleveland Indians at Tucson. Baltimore Orioles at Yuma, New York Giants in Phoenix and the Chicago Cubs in Mesa. New Trout License Law Is Explained By State olina trout fishing license law was released Wednesday by Earl Wil liams. Haywood County wildlife protector. The revisions, made by the Gen eral Assembly in 1953. are explain ed this way by W. C. Bumgarner. I chief of the Wildlife Protection Division at Raleigh: "Since it is the policy of the Wildlife Resources Commission to expend those funds which are available on activities or projects which will be beneficial to the gen eral hunting and fishing public rather than for the benefit of cer tain individuals or classes of in-1 dividuals. the established practice of the Commission is to utilize the | output of its trout hatcheries in I stocking only those inland waters] which constitute suitable habitat I for the species and which are also unrestricted to public fishing. These two criteria form the basis ] for the designation and stocking of i trout waters. "Tn view of this practice, the General Assembly, in 1953, enact j ed the Special Trout License Law wHirh was designed to assist with the financing of the trout stocking program out of the pockets <jf those who enjoy its benefits. That gener I al purpose is accomplished by re quiring those persons who fish in public mountain trout waters, ?which are stocked 'at public ex pense and designated as such by the Wildlife Resources Commission, to purchase a special trout license at a cost of $1 10. Ten cents of this amount is retained by the issuing agent as compensation for his trouble; the dollar goes to a spe cial fund which must he expended exclusively for trout stocking pur poses. | "While the special trout license law contains all-inclusive phrase ology. as an amendment to the fish ing license law, it was so inserted in the General Statutes as to make some obvious exceptions to its own requirements. "As it now stands, the fishing license law may be summarized as follows: (11 As a general requirement, any person who fishes in inland waters must have the usual State | or county license Tn addition, if; he is fishing in designated trout j waters, he must have the Special Trout Fishing License. '21 The first exception to the above general requirement is that any resident person under sixteen j years of aeo and anv nonresident : under twelve may fish without the usual license or the Special Trout License. (31 The second exception is that a landowner and any members of! his family who are under twenty one years of age may fish on his land Without the usual license or the Special Trout License. (4? 'There is a third exception ?rhidi applies to the usual jitjwise reltfftrAdShts. but fvjjjpfelfety W* anply to the special twWr?lhews? That is anv person may fish with ! natural bait in thh county of his residence without the usual state or county license. However with out regard to the tyoe of bait used, if he is fishing in designated trout waters, is sixteen years of age or over, and Is not fishing on his own land or a minor fishing on his par ents' land he must have a special Trout Fishing license. MORE ABOUT WNCAC Meet (Continued from Pare 1) the Cherokee drama, "Unto These i Hills."
