f ( Thursday, September 26,Jb9B3 THE McRENRT PLAINDEALER Page rBOAT/Nu. mm BOWMAN WMIMIMIIWMI ft The Great Outdoors By Jack Walsh Some misinformed persons tell newcomers to boating that it's just as easy to drive a boat as it is an automoible. It is, but it's different. The differences aren't so great that they can't be overcome very simply but in the interest of your own safety and that of your passengers, these differences should be clearly understood. A boat has no brakes. The new helmsman must quickly learn that his boat will come to a standstill in a varying length of time depending upon wind, waves, tide, current and boat load. He must realize, too, that distance on water is often deceptive for the automobiletrained operator. The ability to judge water distances will only be gained by experience. One of the greatest variances between auto and boat operation is in steering response. When you turn an automobile steering wheel to the right, the front wheels turn in that direction and the rear wheels follow closely the tracks of the front wheels. Not so with the boat. When you turn a boat, the stern, rather than the bow, reacts first. If you turn to the right, the stern swings to the left. Water packs up on the left side of the bow and the pressure from the rear plus the resistance of the water building up on the outside of the turn will cause the bow to deflect to the right. Because of this stern steering, you can't race along parallel to a bulkhead or dock and veer away safely. More than likely your stern will clobber the very thing you are trying to avoid unless you allow for this stern movement. The same thing applies frhen you start away from a dock. You may find it safer to back out or to push away from a dock with an oar or boathook. The design contours of the bottom of the boat also have an effect on the boat's turning characteristics. Round bilge or round chine boats, those which have sides that are rounded at the water line with no sharp definition as to where sides stop and bottom begins, bank toward the inside of a turn. Boats with hard chines, sides and bottom that meet at an abrupt angle, have a far lesser tendency to bank to the inside and usually turn flat. Some designs tend to lean outward in a turn, others skid. One boat may be safely turned in a tight arc. Another of similar topside appearance may require a larger turning circle. The skilled boatman will feel out a strange boat carefully until he learns its handling characteristics. Last week we mentioned that mourning dove hunters were having little success this year. Word has reached us that a couple of McHenry girls, Pat Hay and Carol Ficken, tried dove hunting one evening last week, and they too were unsuccessful. It seems that the unsuspecting twosome was induced to trying their hand at reviving the ancient art of "Dill-doving," on the railroad tracks, north of town. Keep trying, girls. Snipe season opens November 1st. The Lake County Chapter of Ducks Unlimited will hold their annual turKey shoot Sunday, October 6th at the McHenry Sportsmen's Club grounds near Pistakee Lake. The public is invited. Boaters are reminded that free classes in safe boating will begin Wed. Oct. 2 at 8 p.m., at Grant High School in Fox Lake. They will be under the direction of the Chain-O-Lakes Power Squadron. DOUBLE STOCK CAR MATCH RACE SUN. AT UNION GROVE General Motors, Ford and Chrysler Corporation will all be represented with their fastest "factory set-up" stock drag cars. Four of the nation's fastest of these cars will compete in a double 3 out of 5 match race this Sunday, September 29th, at Great Lakes Drag-away. The time trials will begin at 9 a.m. and the races will start at 2 p.m. The Great Lakes Dragaway is located 12 miles North of Illinois-Wisconsin State line off Highway 45 at Uniop. Qrov^, Wisconsin. . VETERANS MEET The monthly meeting of the Veterans of World War I will be held Thursday evening, Oct. 3, at 8 o'clock at the Legion home. HERE AND THERE IN BUSINESS JOINS HONOR GROUP Alex H. Rivard of the Fix- It shop, 401 N. Crestwood Ave., McHenry, has been appointed as a member in the Locksmiths' honor society. The appointment was made by the governing council after having reviewed and tested his technical contributions to the advancement of the industry. The Locksmiths' Honor society is the organization which establishes the methods and procedures of the craft. ENJOY TRIP Mr. and Mrs. George Erber have returned from a four-day trip to Nassau, which was won by Carey Appliance as the result of a contest held last summer. Mr. Erber an employee, enjoyed the trip sponsored by the Gibson Refrigerator Sales Corp. COURT BRIEFS Stanley Pankiewicz^bf McHenry was released from custody last week on a ruling of Judge William M. Carroll after the former's attorney had filed a petition asking Sheriff Edward D6wd to bring the defendant into court. Pankiewicz had been brought into the court of Justice of the Peace Charles M. Adams Aug. 31 on a complaint of his wife. At that time he was given a ninety-day suspended jail sentence on the condition that he bring home his pay check for support of his family. When Mrs. Pankieweicz appeared before Judge Adams earlier this month to say she had not received any money, he issued a mittimus through which Pankiewicz was arrested. Judge Carrol ruled that the justice of the peace did not have jurisdiction to issue the mittimus after suspension of the sentence. F.F.A. NEWS The McHenry chapter of the Future Farmers of America held initiation recently in the high school agriculture room. Five members were initiated: J. R. Levesque, Mike Reed, Walter Harbecke, Frank Krumwiede and Allan Harrison. After reciting the creed and motto, the five received Green Hand pins. Tom King Reporter 22,360 qualified teachers leave the teaching profession each year--largely for marriage, or more pay. •IIIMIIillltllllllllllllHIItlllllllllllllllllllllltUllllllllllllllllllllllllllllltllllllllllllllllllllllllltlllllllllllllllliri Iniustice is relativelv easy For Thai MAN In Your LIFE $ and GHAHDE4 too...' »«•'« nothing that «.t» to dot. to a Dad a> a gift efw«arabl«.

PUBLIC PULSE (The Plaindealer invites the public to use this column as an expression of r their views on subjects of general interest in our community. Our only request is that writers limit themselves to 300 words or less signature, full address and phone number. We ask, too, that one individual not write on the same subject more than once each month. We reserve the right to delete arilp"" material which we consider libelous or in objectionable taste.) THE GARBAGE CONTRACT I read with interest the article in the Pulse of Sept. 19 May I add a word of caution to the membership of the L.P.P.O.A. Your garbage contract is valid, your board now has the legal right to bind you to any contract they feel is in your interest or theirs. Do you realize what this means? In the future you may be bound to some major decision or contract that you are hot in agreement with or that may be a financial burden on most members. It Would be in your best interest to amend your by-laws, removing the great power of any board members from entering into any contract or agreement without 65 per cent of the general membership voting on said matter. As long as you are paid up members you are legally responsible to abide by any and all contracts and agreements your board wishes to negotiate or has negotiated. It would be wise to ponder over this so called victory and see if someday it couldn't boomerang. Robert Clove STEAL FROM LODGE The Czecho lodge near Crystal Lake was broken into sometime early Wednesday and between $15 and $20 in cash and a quantity of liquor were taken. Democrats Exchange Greetings Mrs. Theresa J. Schultz of McCulrom Lake, McHenry c lunty Democratic chairwoman, is shown with Director James A. Ronan, chairman of the Democratic State Central committee, as they enjoyed Democratic women's day activities for the 12th and 16th congressional districts, held recently in Rockton. The meeting attracted more than 400 from the two districts. . "i rfSy At a very successful gathering of Democratic women held in Rockton, Lt. Gov. Samuel Shapiro, Atty. Gen. William Clark, Michael J. Hewlett, auditor of public accounts, and Director James A. Ronan of the Department of Finance, along with state representatives of the 31st, 33rd and 34th discussed state government with the over-flow crowd of women. State Rep. Albert Pearson of Nunda township addressed the women on the problems of financing education. Gov. Otto Kerner was present and stressed the fact that "of all the policies of government, honesty and integrity are the best." Whenever you're inclined to exaggerate--take a long walk, and talk to yourself. FOR THAT OLD FASHIONED FLAVOR COME TO Route 120 -- JiiAt Rut nf ItAHte 12 Volo, III.
