the location of the dally clean up I have been making and now Mrs Ursula has bought the property and hopes to make a sanctuary of the pond area The rest hoi been fenced off to keep out destructive force and I cannot blame her In one way Sorry folks but It our own doing Honest fishermen are not the ones to blame but those who fish on occasion or only as an excuse to drink and make trouble But we all must suffer as result to report those trouble makers when you see them or take the license number and report the time location and that number IN THE GYM The Slew town gym unties team finished

dent became d oriented and for a momenl he d not know If he was swimming up or down the mine shaft Due aim thinking he felt for his air bubbles and re oriented his direction this way But every diver
