TUB GEORGETOWN HERALD THURSDAY MAY OUTDOORS with GEORGE HOARE No Floods Here But the Opposite Its soothing to the eyes al ter such a long steady winter to see the lawns green once The maple trees lilac bushes coming out in leaf ire also a treat to tulips and other perennials re food for the eyes also The snow going dually this spring eliminated the flood hazard The story from Just the op posite The sudden mild spell the snow rapidly and caused the big rivers to rise feet above rmal The heavy snow was equal to 8 inches of water Former Georgetown resident Mr Bill Glbbs amazed at the thickness of the ice on some of the lakes which was still intact week despite the fact that it had melted around the shore Bill went on to say it is the thickest ice he has ever seen He also predicts that much da mage will be done to boat houses etc if high winds and prevail Bud Glbbs of Crescent really hit the Jackpot with a lb rainbow and three others lb lb and lb They were caught at Thornbury in the Beaver River Bud says the competition was keen as he was stand shoulder to shoulder with anglers o Doug Parker was also with a nice rainbow trout of 13 pounds The 21 pound trout that was caught at might turn out to be a salmon A bl will determine the cor species Despite the recent cool win weather many nice Irout have been taken Terra Conservation area has its share The Indian near Thorn bury is well guarded these days with Department of Lands Forests officers and Ontario Provincial Police Poaching was rampant earlier in there The river probably be declared a sanctuary next year The gristmill on the River near Mansfield has been sold and turned Into a resld so another good fish irsg spot has been lost Sixty big rainbow were seen at one time below the dam there The River flows into the River at Alliston The Pine liner flows into the same river at Angus Due to the ski resorts Mansfield area has had a face lifting the last few years ski resorts can be seen from the modern hard ed road Many private homes can also be seen AH this is in contrast to the view that met our eyes several years ago when we drove through wash outs frost boils and rough vel roads to rach the river that was horn for a few weeks every spring for the big fight rainbows that we wanted so badly to catch To travel further through Pine River country one is rewarded with the same new look The two branches of the Pine River meet at Terra Nova The road that follows the west through the Horn ings Mills area is lined with modern cottages and most are gifted with moderate trout ponds It makes one envious to say the least This also la due no doubt to he population of the area skiing If anyone is interested in a nice weekend drive it would be time well spent Just to see change that has come over the area That a all for this week in joy the outdoors and tight lines until next time HUNTING and FISHING LICENSES AT PETE SPORTS 17 Main St 500 Boys One Field is Still the No Problem PETTO JACK DUO WIN OLD MEMBERS by Duncan and Jim This frank fact appeared In The Herald last Thursday but after the goings on of last week we would be surprised if town council read or even get The Herald

minutes and get rid of them and get on with the budget MORE IMPORTANT Well Mr Major and esteem cd colleagues of council it Is all too easy to get rid of us and get on with important budget but to

giving advice was something of a sage Take your problems to the Recreation Committee at Cedarvale we were toll Well sir wc have already done and to their credit they gave us a better hearing than ell
