MAC BELIEVES IN
SHARING BIG FISH,
HONORS TOO, YES?

Mac Foster is generous to a
fault, they say. Especially is this
true when it comes to giving his
friends part of the fish he CATCH
es, for, be it known, Mac is an ex-
pert with the line.
A few days ago Mac brought in
a fish that for size holds the rec
ord this year. He caught just this
one fish, for after landing it, he
knew that it would feed all the
friends he could get to carry a
piece of it away. 1t is unusual,
fishermen say, for a man to get
a trout of such size that he is
obliged to cut 1t in pieces and
call taxi to deliver the portions,
but that is what they say Mac
had to do.
His decision to cut the fish in
to choice steaks. chops and roasts
was only made after long consid-
Grafton of the barbecue plan. Mac
decided that there might be
some unwelcome persons at n
public event such as a barbecue.
so hit upon the division plan.
The fish, we nearly forgot to
mention, died of sunstroke after
crawling out of the irrigation
ditch near Hermiston and at the
time rescued by Foster was two
inches long.
