With all Fox Valley schools competing except Cary Grove in the indoor event, the host Tigers won the meet, defeating Woodstock in the final event to insfire the victory. The Warriors showed power in the sprints, and if they could have manipulated the Curves a little better would have scored a few more points.: In talking with the genial "Irishman" Coach Boland, he remarked, "I was quite pleased with the efforts of our squad, considering we have no indoor facilities. The Warriors entered not a individual in the hurdles, pole-valut, or high jump events. The Warriors picked up several first place events, when Pete Ritthaler won the 50 yd. dash, the 880 relay team of Keith Sc'iaeffer, Todd Noa, Dave D'Angelo, and Aric Akins won the event. Akins also won the 220 yd. dash tying a meet record.

With the economy the way it is, it is encouraging to drive along and see a sign MEN WORKING. If you think this column is for the birds, you are at least partially right. Now, another little bird read about the lone robin in our yard and reports that Mrs. Joe Miller has three in her yard on Waukegan Street. Haven't checked with Mrs. Miller, but trust the report is correct. We have a loner. She has that eternal triangle. Baseball news these-days is all about the threatened strike. Polls indicate that the fans don't like it a little bit. In other years we could read the raves about the rookies who were sure to startle the baseball world. Maybe we knew the raves were exaggerated, but it made good reading. I don't think training camps should open until the contract is signed anymdre than I think schools should open while a strike hangs over the heads of the pupils and the public. " Strikes are one thing. Work slowdowns and faked sick calls are another. On the brighter side -- Our rhubarb is peaking through the ground. Can pies be far away? From way out in Arizona comes a note and newspaper clippings about the Chicago Cubs. Ed Thennes is the thoughtful one. Oh, yes! He sent a program listing all the players, coaches and m a n a g e m e n t . S i m p l y wonderful. The Mesa Tribune has a staff writer named Tom Powers who has some good things to say about the Cub's utility man, Larry Biitner. Powers relates that in 3>£ years with the Cubs, Biitner has a .278 batting average. In 1977 he played regularly for the Cubs and hit 298, striking out only 36 times. That's what the man says. This corner has tried to tell some of our brighter Cub fans that Biitner should be a regular on some team. Do you think they will listen? You can tell they are Cub fans, but you can't tell 'em much. Those things we were going to do right after Christmas, we are now going to do right after Easter.

If they don't have to move about, they usually lie still conserving their strength. T h e a m o u n t o f f i s h movement varies widely among species. Sunflsh, for example, seldom travel more than 200 feet away from their chosen homes. On the other hand, paddle- fish think nothing of traveling 50 or more miles in order to spawn. Knowing why and when fish move about can help anglers improve their catch, according to Mercury outboards' fishing department. The most common reason fish move is to find food. Black bass, sedentary fish which don't travel far, move in Spring from deep water -- where they have wintered -- to shallow water. This occurs because the amount of both food and oxy­ gen increases in shallow water as it warms. Bass naturally seek the best and easiest living situation, that which uses the least energy for survival. In Spring, many fish travel to reach spawning sites. White bass are an example. In late March or early April, they begin moving out of lakes into streams seeding shoals where they can spawn. The most urgent reason for fish movement is to escape dan­ ger. Tests have shown that fish which flee in a burst of speed in order to'escape capture often require several hours of rest thereafter before they regain their strength. Knowledge of the movement patterns of your favorite sport fish species can help you pre­ dict where fish will be at a given time. * * * * Almost anyone can give advice that is not worth taking-
