At this point news reaches us that Tony Wirtz passed away. • We just sit and stare. It would -be hard to find a better man. .He lived the good life, following a daily pattern above reproach. The Green Street business area is saddened this morning and the #£me feeling is bound to spread to every other street. A good man has Country Doctor. been taken from our midst. One wonders who will be next. We do not try to understand the ways of the Lord, but trust He has a choice spot all set for Tony in heaven. The way the Baltimore Orioles are running away with that Eastern Division in the American League makes a sports fan think backto the days of the Yankee Bombers.' Nobody thought those New York Mets were for real, but we know a team in Chicago whose players must be looking over their shoulders as they feel the hot breath of the Mets on their necks. If Cub fans want to give real credit where credit is due,they have to say the ferocious drive of Captain Ron Santo is the big factor in their success. We think this is the end of a short column.

According to William L. Rutherford, director of the Illinois Department of Conservation, the litter slob travels by automobile or boat, casting paper to the winds and depositing tin cansf bottles and other kinds of trash in state perks or public waters. Rutherford Mid that 18 persons were cited In May by conservation officers for illegal dumping in state parks, public waters, or where the trash could be washed into public waters. "We realize that getting rid of garbage may be a problem sometimes, but if s not an insurmountable one," Rutherford said. "A person may havo to walk a few feet to put it in a container. As far as we are concerned the wrong way to solve theproblem is to dump it anywhere that* s hanty when a park ranger or .a conservation officer isn't looking. "That practioe we will not tolerate," Ruthejrford "We are short offtmdsandpersoimel.

PLAINDEALER PHOTO SEE AFRICA, URGES MAKAME The white snows of Kilimanjaro, the black mystery of native dances, the old ruins of an ancient city and the ne^Ouxuries of modern hotels are among the tourist attractions described to top U.S. travel officials recently by Hasnue Makame, Minister of. Tourism for the East African republic of Tanzania. According to the African persuader, whose U.S. visit has aroused widespread interest in his country, tourists to Tanzania often visit the ruins of Kilwa, a city built by Persians 1;000 years ago, and Isimila. a site dating back to the Stone Age. The fablea Mount Kilimanjaro, always capped with snow, is Africa's tallest peak, 19,565 feet high. From the lip of a crater nine miles wide, tpurists look down 2,000 feet where herds of wild buffalo, elephants and other animals graze by the lakes and sometimes clash. In Serengeti National Park, Americans drive rented cars through a wild animal preserve of 5,500 square miles, where hungry jungle beasts leap and slither along their way, often right next to a tourist's car, without paying attention to the visitors behind their steel doors. Round-trip fares to Tanzania from New York range from a high of $1,577 to a low, via BOAC, of $784. Wait! Before you leave, you will "want to know how to say Good Morning in Tanzania. How? Just say "Good Morning," for the area was long under British influence. But say it with an English accent: Good Mawning! . . don't be surprised if they call you Governor. The Africans say: "Mawning, Guvna!" ANCHORS SKI TOW BOAT IMPORTANT An absolute essential to safe water skiing involves the driver of the tow-boat Ed Rehling. who in more than two decades has driven in some 17,000 water ski shows at Florida's famed Cypress Gardens, has sound counsel for those who pilot ski tow craft. Requisites of being a good driver, Rehling points out, include the ability to execute smooth take-offs and smooth speeds once the skier is up, the ability to make smooth turns and the practice of maintaining constant vigilance. Nationally known as a top boat handler, Rehling cautions drivers against starting the engine while anyone is in the water near the stern of the boat; the driver should avoid areas where people are swimming or fishing and a good driver, he says, never starts until the skier is holding the handle, with ski tips or tip showing, and gives an audible or visual signal tO "gO." a As Rehling points out, "There is no room for misunderstandings in the sport of water skiing." Rehling said a good driver, seeing a skier fall, will instinctively swing his boat around to return to the skier as quickly as possible. And an experienced driver will not make a sweeping curve around the skier, for this could mean entanglement in a towline. He should approach the skier slowly, in a straight line, so that the line may be grasped easily. . "A good driver sits securely in the driver's seat." Rehling continued. "He will never drive while standing. The fewer passengers the better, for more passengers cut towing Speeds and make starts difficult. "One passenger, however, is essential «-- the observer. He watches the progress of the skier, keeps ^he driver infprtned of falls and watches for floating objects. Thp qualified observer should be a good swimmer." A factor in making water skiing safe is a system of signals between skier and boat driver. When the skier is ready, he should signal the driver by shouting "in gear." When the line gradually becomes taut and the skier is moving slowly through the water, the skier commands the driver to "hit it." Full application of power then is applied to get the skier up and away. From this point on, communication is primarily through hand signals. A palm down, with a downward motion of the hand, requests a slower speed. The opposite -- palm up and upper hand motion -- asks for more power and speed. For an immediate stop the skier imitates the traffic officer: flat' palm with hand and arm stretched overhead. The signal for the driver to cut the motor is drawing the fingers across the throat. To signal for a change of direction, the skier motions with outstretched palm. When he points with a finger, he is asking the driver to wing in the indicated direction so that he can "whip off." Palm extended in a slant indicates the skier wants to try the ramp. These are standard and generally accepted signals recommended by the American Water Ski Association. There may be occasional variations, but in the main these signals are widely known and relied upon and have been a definite factor .in the sport's fine safety record.
