We compared tackle, and tried

Mike s collection is large,
and some of it is quite old and
has. lor instance, and
old Meek reel and another solid
brass reel dated I 840. His rods
j"e long, and oldest type, and
his plug collection is enough to
bring tears to the eyes of the
aged angler.
' ?old Mike I was interested
in tishing with some of the old
tackle and comparing it with
modern equipment. He liked
? he idea, and we met at Sunset
lake near Raleigh one
afternoon back in October.
The trip was not a complete
success tor the simple reason
that it dri//|ed rain part of the
? iine and we neither caught
bass nor had any strikes.
Mike used his Meek reel and
an old tubular steel rod that
looked to be seven or eight feet
["ng. I used my Julius Von
Hole reel and the short cane
rod.
Wc each tried a number of
?he old plugs, and I was
ama/ed at how good they
looked in the water.
My first surprise came when
tried on one of the old live ?

spinners on each end. Because

assumed it was a surface lure.
I cast it next to a stump and
it sank like a stone.
"0 year. I meant to tell you
? hat those are sinking lures."
Mike said alter seeing the
shocked look on my face.
Mike tried an old jointed
Vamp lor awhile, then
switched to a floating SOS
with spinners. I tried an old
cigar - shaped 210 with a metal
collar which pushed water like
a plunker. I was ama/ed at the
accuracy Mike got with the
long, whippy rod. His Meek
leel ran smoothly and quietly.
My Vom Hole was hardly
quiet, but it was usable.
Later, we switched to
modern spinning tackle and
even tried the deadly plastic
worms without success.
But despite the lack of
siiikes. I am convinced that the
tackle used by our grandfather
and great grandlathers was
remarkably efficient. I have

YOU
AND THE
UNIVERSITY
OF NORTH CAROLINA
By William Friday, President
l'ni\entity of North Carolina
Your fnivurnity# School of
Medicine in Chapel Hill and
Now Hunovor Memorial Hos
pitnl in Wilmington have
formed a medical partnership
that will benefit not only the
school and hospital hut the
people of Eastern North Caro
lina as well.
Dr. Isaac M. Taylor. Jr.,
dean of the School of Medicine,
and William Sutton, president
of the hospital's Board of
Trustees, signed "Articles of
Alliliation" and outlined the
objectives of the program:
?To extend the services of
the I'NC Medical School to
the eastern part of the state
through faculty exchange and
consultation. For two years,
an informal exchange of I'NC
and hospital physicians have
served the purposes of educa
tion and patient care.
(Since February, l'JHt), three
medical center pediatricians
have held about 101) clinics in
Wilmington. The plane which
takes the pediatricians to Wil
mington brings Wilmington
surgeons to Chapel Hill on the
return trips so the surgeons
can teach medical students.)
?To provide optimal con
tinuing medical education for
area physicians through in
volvement of Medical School
faculty in organized hospital
medical school programs and
the involvement of practicing
physicians in the medical stu
dents' educational process.
??To develop a program that
will attract new physicians to
the East, and to benefit patient
care at the hospital through
constant communication with
the University about the latest
advancements ami develop
ments in the world of medi
cine.
?To permit students to re
ceive part of their training in
community hospitals, thereby
benefitting from clinical ex
periences. at minimal cost.
Dean Tsiylor said. "The for
bidding costs associated with
the expansion or creation of
new hospitals at medical
schools makes jt desirable for
medical schools to associate
with appropriate community
hospitals as a means to facili
tate the teaching of larger
umber* of medical students."
