Participating in- dedication ceremonies of improvements -made in Siloam Springs State Park, Gov. William G. Stratton said that "recreation is everybody's business." Siloam Springs State Park, in west-central Illinois, . contains nearly 3,000 acres of land and has been the subject of intensive improvements during the past three years. "The Illinois state system . of parks and recreational areas is regarded nationally as among the v'"finest to be found anywhere in America," Gov. Stratton said. "No matter. where you travel in Illinois you will find a state park not many miles away." There's a knack to removinga fish from a hook, but it's trickier still, taking a fishhook out of human flesh.
