PAGE • - PLAINPEALER - FRIDAY, NO II. UT7 EARL WALSH I Hear SPORTS EDITOR ••••••••••••••••••••« t - I V • 1- A nice note from Dorothy Hollander on our report of McHenry Country club's Oktoberfest says Schnitzel bank was spelled correctly. -"but it was my last name Mid Bill Gutzmer's that gave you a little trouble!" Now, 1 can't imagine spelling Dorothy's last name in­ correctly. "Gutzmer", yes. I have no trouble with names like Murphy and shouldn't have a problem with some of those others after living with a German girl all these years. My mother didn't readily accept excuses for misspelling names or words. (I think she considered it a mortal sin). Jeff Bonato has gone on to greener pastures and will no longer be reporting school athletics for the Plaindealer. With football season over and basketball in the practice stages, we aren't in too much of a bind for a short time. I phoned our friend, "Old Reliable" Dick Rabbitt, who offered to give me a quick call if any sports news pops before the Boss puts a new man to work. Coaches can also be a great help if they have something they want printed. Looked through five pages of sports this morning without finding a word about "Baseball's Millionaire Club". Decided to look through the financial pages to see if they had moved into a new section. A news report from Junior Pieroni told us that Richie Zisk had signed with the Texas entry. That's where the oil is! Our neighbor, Florence May, brought us an old auction sale poster in which Mrs. Martin Adams had decided to quit farming. Sale was held Oct. 17, 1904. That goes back a spell. George Vogel was the auc­ tioneer. A huge man was George and an impressive character with his cow cane and derby hat. Haven't pin-pointed the location of the Adams farm-- "situated about three-quarter miles south of S. Reynold's Mill, McHenry." Big letters on the poster read, "Good Lunch At Noon". Joe Dehn came to see us about getting word to sports fans about Che coming "Round Ball Review". Hope you read the story in the Wednesday issue. The event is being sponsored by the Old Bridge Softball club to acquaint basketball fans with rules and things to expect as the season nears. Members of the Old Bridge team and sports stores have tickets and a big advance sale seems in the making. The date: Nov. IS The time: 7:30 p.m. The Place: VFW Hall County coaches will be there to answer questions in what is billed as, "A first in McHenry County". • - i & j f c i 4?*• *• LAST YEAR, BALTIMORE COACH /V\ARCHI6R0DA SAID "LAMBERT /S -ME DEST MIDDLE LINE­ BACKER IN FOOTBALL."

I did a piece on this subject for a majoroutdoor magazine last year and got more mail on the subject than anything else I've written. There's good reason for the inter­ est in this subject. Most of us are familiar with the fishing holes in our own backyard, but in a month or so they'll be better suited for a game of ice hockey, or as a stop-over for geese on their way south. And, then there's all that snow and cold weather to face. After a few weeks of this sort of thing I can't blame a man for wanting to pack up his tackle and follow the geese to the tropics. But, where in the tropics? Florida seems a likely choice, but for the serious fisherman our sun­ shine state is not ideal at this sea­ son. Big Florida largemouth are not particularly active during the winter months, and gamesters like snook and taipon are equally sensitive to the chill northers which regularly drift southward into this area. A much better bet is the Sea of Cortez in Mexico or the Yucatan Peninsula which occupies a nice sunny spot in the Gulf. Fishing remains good here throughout the winter, and the latter spot is partic­ ularly good for bonefish, tarpon, and permit. Costa Rica and Honduras are probably an even better bet for tar­ pon, and there are several fishing camps on the Gulf side that offer all-inclusive For usive packages for anglers, both big game and inshore saltwater fishing, Panama could be /the best spot in the world at this season. Here are three Pacific fish­ ing resorts which offer outstanding angling for martin and sailfisb, and equally productive light-tackle fish­ ing for such species as roosterfish, corvina, big snapper, and a variety of other inshore gamesters. While I'm on the subject of big game fishing, special note should be made of Salinas, Ecuador. Facili­ ties here are okay, the billfish ac­ tion is equally as good, and a dollar goes a lot further than in Central America. Down in Chile and Argentina the trout season has just opened and fly fisherman are tangling with the big­ gest rainbows and brown trout they've ever seen. In the Amazon basin, adventurous sportsmen will soon be having equal success with peacock bass, payara, and dozens of other fine fighting fish that in­ habit this unspoiled frontier. Where you go depends on the species of fish that turn you on and how you'd like to go about exercis­ ing vour casting arm. But, if you head for the tropics or points south of the equator you can't go far wrong. This subject is too complicated to cover in one column, so I suggest you obtain the details from another source. The Braniff Outdoor Coun­ cil, for instance, publishes a com­ prehensive fishing guide to the Western Hemisphere. The book costs $1, and you can get a copy by writing Braniff International, Box 35001, Dallas, Texas 75235. Q'nC It's Time To Get Ready To SKI! at dan o< IT fC? JWib'9'V 3! *4 tetter k&tm, Frogs and rifles One reason air travelers can jet across the skies at 600 MPH instead of 300 MPH in the slower prop planes is due to a discovery Sir Isaac Newton made way back in 1687. Yes, I said 1687 - not 1787, 1887 or 1937! Here it is, Newton's third law of motion: "For every action there is a reaction, equal in force and opposite in direction." This is the basic principle on which jet engines operate. (Actually, Newton didn't invent the law; he only stated it. To pinpoint the first jet engine, you must go back more than 2,000 years to an Egyptian by the name of Hero, who designed an aeolipile. Using compressed steam, |t spun a metal ball.) A rotating lawn sprinkler is an example of the jet prin­ ciple. As the water squirts from the nozzles, the arms are pushed around and around in the opposite direction, spray­ ing the water over the grass. The recoil of a rifle is the same. Or a child's balloon. When he lets go of the stem, the emerging pressure forces the balloon in the opposite direction. Watch a frog jumping ' off a Jog. As he dives into the pond, the log moves backward. "For every action there is a reaction, equal in force, and opposite in direction." I see this principle at work in everyday life. The truth is that when anyone takes a forward step, reactions set in to induce a backward step. And unlike the jet engine, these re­ actions can serve as a drag. Just try coming up with a good idea, and then listen to all the arguments why it won't work. So if we wait until all the winds are favorable, well never unfurl our sails. Reaction is as certain as action; oppo­ sition is as strong as cooperation. 2 • *' .'"V - '• * ,:f ] ' ' 5 R. J.
