Right enough to have sold millions of records, to have established radio history with one of the most popular shows ever, to have pioneered new television and staging techniques that are still being used today, and to have established the chorus as a new medium for popular music with such a profound impact as to have classical musicians study his innovative methods. Waring has retained a few of the "old timers", but over 90 percent are all new, hand picked, talented musicians and singers, trained by Waring, to present today's music so it becomes pleasing to all. They will have the honor of joining one of the most prestigious musical groups ever assembled and following in the footsteps of some of the world's greatest performers who are now a proud Alma Mater. More vacation planning tips • Pre-plan a weekend or vacation excursion. Public libraries, state travel and recreation' agencies, local historic and outdoor groups, and auto and travel clubs are a good planning start. • To save time and energy, try drawing two circles on a roadmap -- the center of the circle being your neighbor­ hood. Make a within 50-mile and a within 100-mile set of circles. New lightweight models travel e a s i l y a s y o u w i s h , o f f e r many benefits Don't leave your bicycles at home in the garage when you head out for your vacation; take them along. Your bicycle can be used to take side trips from your main route or to provide transportation and exercise when you reach your destination, helping you to save fuel needed for your motor vehicle. If you are traveling by car, you can fit a bicycle rack to either the bumper or roof with very little effort. There are racks to fit cars from the subcompacts up to motorhomes. Most bumper racks hold two bikes, and roof racks will take up to four. What happens if you plan to travel by bus, train or airplane? You can still take your - bike along in most cases, but it is ad­ visable to check locally before showing up at the depot or airport. All major airlines accept a ticket- buyer's bicycle. Some will supply a large packing box for the bike. Most require that you turn the handle­ bars sideways and remove the pedals, Amtrak will accept bi­ cycles as personal luggage, as is. No disassembly is needed, but it is wise to remove pump, water bot­ tle or bags for security reasons. The catch is to be sure that the train you plan to take has a baggage car. The two major bus com­ panies will accept bicycles as personal luggage but they must be partially dis­ assembled and cartoned or bagged in containers no more than 60 inches long. More often than not you must supply your own carton.

The Bureau of Outdoor Recreation has assisted states and com­ munities in establishing recreation trails, some within the national sys­ tem. • Hiking trail experi­ ences can range from a f i v e - m i n u t e s a u n t e r along an urban trail to a week-long experience along a National Scenic Trail such as the Appa­ lachian Trail in the east, or the Pacific Crest Trail in the west. At least some members of the group should be experi­ enced with selected map and compass, and other outdoor safety skills.

However, it's really quite simple once you master the four simple basics of clay target shooting. The first essential is prop­ er stance -- feet spaced comfortably, turned half right from line of fire, with weight forward and left knee slightly bent. Next, the gun is correctly mounted -- butt resting in the shoulder hollow, not on the arm muscle, while the cheek firmly nudges the stock. The first two steps auto­ matically give the shooter the third fundamental -- proper sighting alignment. The final and most com­ plicated step is establishing the right lead or forward allowance and maintaining a smooth swinging follow- through. To understand how this works, imagine trying to direct a stream of water from a garden hose at a youngster running across a lawn. Were he at a distance and moving fast, the hose nozzle would have to be pointed not, at, but ahead of him in order to douse him. This is lead. Swinging follow-through ties in similarly. Unless the nozzle is kept swinging, to maintain properly estab­ lished lead, the youngster will outrace the water stream. Applying these four prin­ ciples will enable any novice to shatter more clay targets. More thorough instruction can be obtained at any of the many Winchester Pub­ lic Shooting Centers across the country, all of which offer free learn-to-shoot programs. SHOWPIACEI RTES. 14 & 31 / 455-1005 Vacationers want to know, and here is . . . How to get more miles per fuel dollar The motor vehicle, in the studied opinion of most authorities, contin­ ues to be not only the most convenient but the most economical means of, transportation for those who plan to vacation in the Great Outdoors. The newer vehicles have been engineered to yield more mileage per gallon. Those that are a bit older require only proper serv­ icing, preferably at the hands of an experienced technician, to assure operation at substantial savings. Yet, still greater econ­ omy can be achieved by vacationers if they choose a destination closer to their hometowns than in palmier days -- and stay put. This plan is especially recommended to campers using either recommended towed or self-powered ve­ hicles with all living fa­ cilities, for which there are plenty of park areas not too distant from most hometowns. Additional savings, both in terms of gallons and of dollars, can be effected by taking along a bicycle for use in going from the campsite to the cross­ roads grocery and back again. This requires only human energy. Most people who under­ stand and enjoy vacation- time relaxation in the Great Outdoors -- camp­ ers, fishermen, hunters, water sports enthusiasts- are resourceful people and will find or invent other ways in which to econo­ mize and help conserve energy while they work in concert with the nation's energy conserving needs. Essential to getting more mileage for every dollar spent for motor vehicle fuel is proper servicing of one's equipment and some very simple driving tips. Here are some of the most important: Wkdys. 7:30-9:30 S&S 1:30-3:30-5:30-7:30- 9:30 "MEL BROOKS' COMIC MASTERPIECE H o l l i s A l p e r t S A T U R D A Y R E V I E W BEFORE DEPARTING have your car checked and serviced by a com­ petent mechanic.
