McHENRY PLAINDEALER Section A Wednesday, Augmtil, 1*5 Page 13 I Sports Hunters take heed, season just up the road Bears • (Continued from page 14) By Mannix Porterfield UPI outdoor writer *t CHARLESTON, W.Va. - Now is the time to prepare for the fall hunting season, and one item on any hunter's checklist should be some physical conditioning. A good way to tone up the flab is to perform a little farm work. Even­ tually, this will pay some nifty dividends. With farmers growing increasing­ ly reluctant to let strangers wander on their property to hunt, a familiar sign of the times is being nailed £ with regrettable frequency on trees § along country roads. |4 "Posted -- No Hunting," the signs £ warn. 5 Years ago, my grandfather took a «t Sunday stroll through a 700-acre ex- > panse he tended and found some < dead squirrels. Their tails had been £ severed neatly with a knife and at- > tached to car antennas to reinforce ** bragging rights. The meat was left to rot. "That's it," my grandfather said, growing the squirrels down in dis­ gust. "No more hunting here." That was decades ago But there is a fresh wave of grumbling from the farmlands. Many farmers have had it up to their haylofts with simi­ lar altjjjse -- cattle killed by < irrant shot#, fences left open and liv istock straying off, game killed and eft on the spot. I "Yes, there is more posted land than there has been in the past," says Jim Ruckel, assistant chief of game managment for the West Vir­ ginia Department of Natural Resources. - "Almost as soon as the deer herd increases, you get people wanting to deer hunt on private farms and landowners will post them, so they can be the only ones to hunt on. You get more deer, more people, and farmers feel intimidated." Ruckel says hunters needn't feel disheartened by the plethora of signs. Many farmers will allow you access to their land, provided some plans are made well in advance of a hunt. "You just don't go knocking on his door at 4 o'clock in the morning and ask to go hunting." savs Ruckel. "You ask for permission in the sum­ mer. After all, that farmer has to milk cows, eat his breakfast and do his.other chores. "He's not going to be in a very good mood when he walks out of the house and finds six cars parked in his driveway. He'd have every rea­ son in the world not to let anyone hunt." With the available private hunting land diminishing, Ruckel notes that West Virginia is blessed with a mil­ lion acres of national forest land to hunt in. Additionally, the state leases private tracts owned by such firms as Georgia Pacific and Westvaco. Those who cannot afford to travel to public lands or to private ones under lease by state fire simply going to have to try to get on the farmer's good side. * Basically, says Ruckel. this calls for a simple application of the Gold­ en Rule. "You always hear about the bad experiences farmers have with hunters, but you never hear about the good ones'" says Ruckel. "I've known people who will go out and help the farmer make hay or fix a fence. Just work a day or two with him. People do that sort of thing in the summer, and they're the ones who get to hunt there in the fall. "That way. the farmer gets to know the hunter, and he knows when he's coming and going in the hunting season. That's the best way to do it, I believe. After all, many farmers hunt too, you know." has maintained the club has a strict policy of not renegotating pacts. "I don't know if you can call it renegotating or restructuring." said Singletary. who would not disclose the details of the contract talks. Singletary had signed a five-year contract and had three years re­ taining on the pact. McCaskey agreed there was pro- fgress but insisted the Bears were not renegotiating Singletarv's tract. .Singletary said he was anxious to get the matter resolved. "The bottom line is I was talking to my wife and thinking it would be easy to sit out and not talk with them, that they can trade me and I'll go somewhere else. 1 really felt I would be a Chicago Bear." Single­ tary said. "There is no where else in the league for me." Singletary said he would have lit­ tle trouble getting ready to play. "I don't think that's a big issue right now." Singletary said. i M return to the day of the two-way player? By Ken Sins Fort Worth Star-Telegram A final thought (we promise) on the Tony Dorsett saga: The result almost assures there will be several Dallas Cowboy holdouts next sum­ mer. Obviously the tactic is effec­ tive. Randy White, Everson Walls 2 and now Dorsett were rewar handsomely after withholding sum­ mer services. Although Tex Schramm insists^ Dorsett could have received the same contract by reporting to camp and bypassing the holdout routine, the public perceives that the Cow­ boys caved in to Dorsett's demands. Agent Witt Stewart and Dorsett Golf tourney registration ends Aug. 22 WOODSTOCK -- The deadline for entry into the second annual Mc­ Henry County Men's Amateur Golf Tournament Sept. 6-7 at Pinecrest Golf and Country Club has been extended, according to McHenry County Men's Amateur Golf Associ­ ation President Dave Spitzer. The tournament deadline is now Aug. 22. Anyone interested in play­ ing in any of the four classes -- Championship, A, B and C -- can pick up an entry form at the Old Courthouse Inn on the Woodstock Squar or from any area golf club. The tournament is non-handicap. More than $2,000 in merchandise prized will be awarded in the tour­ nament and Spitzer stressed the prizes will be equally divided among the four classes. The entry fee is $40 which in­ cludes two days green fees, prizes and an awards reception at the OOHI on the night of Sept. 7. Club association officers have de­ termined that no more than 15 golf­ ers will be permitted from an indi­ vidual club and the field will be limited to 72 golfers. Golfers interested in playing must be residents of McHenry County or a paid-up golfing member of a Mc­ Henry County golf club. All golfers must be male and 21 years of age. More information can be obtained by calling Spitzer at 338-6700. both maintain the holdout backed the Cowboys into a corner and forced them to dramatically im­ prove their offer. Two Cowboys officials were over­ heard last week having a heated discussion about the Dorsett situa­ tion. One said to the other in a loud voice, "When are we going to force these guys to honor a contract? When are we going to tell these aple that they can stay home if they can't honor a contract?" A rather naive viewpoint, but. a valid one. The decision to reduce rosters to 45 signals the return, however slight, of the two-way player. In the one-platoon era, football was played by 60-minute men who played of­ fense, defense and special teams. Dallas' Bill Bates is the modern player who approaches that style. Bates is a special teams terror (and punt returner) as well as a backup strong safety and a linebacker in the 4-0 defenses. Bates estimates if he were to start at strong safety in addition to his other duties, he would be on the field 70 percent of a game. Washington Redskins running back John Riggins was asked if he has a drinking problem. He denied being an alcoholic, saying he's merely a fun-loving soul. "I've been a b-a-a-a-d boy," Riggo said. "I like who I am and who I am is a guy who likes to have fun. I don't get into fights when I go to bars. That's not to say I can't be obnoxious, but that's usually the ex­ ception and not the rule." Philadelphia Eagles general man­ ager Harry Gamble is earning a reputation as a poor trader, or at least an unrealistic one. Attempting to unload aging RB Wilbert Mont­ gomery, Gamble wanted young su­ perstar runner Curt Warner from Seattle. That proposal was greeted by snickers. He also attempted an­ other silly deal, offering holdout LB Jerry Robinson to the Los Angeles Raiders for either of two stars: RB Marcus Allen or DT Howie Long. Ray J.
