\ LaCroix, well-known Mount
Clemens undertaken. and attest

the season.
HERE IT Is
So. please bear with US as we
attempt to tell II just a. 1t was
told to ": e.
The rotund Mr.. LaCroix and
his better-haH left on Q vacation
trip last Saturday, first visiting
their son, Tom, at Fort Brady.
They then started on . fishing
trip on the lronton river. located
near Charlevoiy Lake.
Before going out on the river,
Mrs. LaCroix. president Of the
Flower Clubs Of st. Louis parish,
got Gin" q little practice.
She hooked everything but a
fish, according to her mate.
Then, Sail. ahoy!" they hit
the river.
HIT HIGH MARK
For several hours they pulled
in fish after fish until they hit
the 80 mark"
Suddenly they heard 4 yell
from . nearby boat, and looking
up they saw Z man "going mad. :"
The strangers fish rod was
bent double, end the LaCroixs
watched breathlessly rs the fish
was brought closer and closer to
the boat.
Suddenly the fish leaped high
in the air.
GIANT TROUT
1T was q trout, three and q
half feet long"
The leaping monster broke
the rod, tipped over the strang-
er's boat and plunged the two
occupants into 50 feet Of water.
Speeding to the rescue, the
Mount Clemens residents pulled
the dripping fishermen into
their boat and, took them to
shore.
When the four reached land,
the LaCroixs learned that a
stringer holding 90 fish had
been lost when the boat turned
over.
Dawn Az. SVD
All four had a good cry, and
then like good fishermen went
back to their Emitting"
Several hours later, they
heard another cry from q nearby
boat.
1--WE got q whale" the voice
declared.
Again the LaCroixs turned
spectators.
They saw the owner Of the
voice, q Bay City man, reel in
his lire slowly.
(Now we are getting TO the
spot where It really gets good.)
Slowly, but surely, the catch
was being brought closer to the
boat, finally coming into view.
The LaCroi,es sank back into
their seats, 'unbelief" written on
their faces.
For Il was not just one fish!
It was 90 fish, all attached to
q stringer.
Ahem!

fine IS RENTED
in DEC0VER CASE
Judge Lennon Points Out $500
Restitution Made in
Auto Mishap

A fine of $50 and the costs i'm
posed on William DeCover, who
pleaded guilty to a charge of speed
ing, were ordered remitted by
Judge Alton A. Lennon yesterday in
recorders court when the court
when the court found DeCover had
previously made restitution amount.
ing to approximately $500 in the
case.
In yesterdays News, it was er.
roneously reported that DeCover had
been fined $50 after pleading guilty
to charges Of drunken driving and
being responsible for personal in.
juries suffered by Gilbert Thomason
in an auto mishap last October 10.
The Star-News regrets this en-
tirely erroneous report and is glad
to correct the inadvertent mistake.
The case arose from a highway
accident in which Gilbert Thomason,
young son Of B. H. Thomason, of
S13 Colonial drive, riding a bicycle,
was struck and injured by an auto
mobile driven by DeCover on Chest
nut street just beyond the Burnt
Mill Creek bridge, sheriff's deputies
said.
Deputy Sheriff H. B. Register
said DeCover was arrested later by
Deputy Sheriff Sam Yopp on a
charge of reckless driving and was
placed under bond.
Judge Lennon said DeCover's S
case was continued from time to
time in the recorders court due to
the inability of the child, recovering
at local hospital, and his father,
who has been ill and out of town
frequently, to appear in court.
When the case was finally called
yesterday, Judge Lennon said, mo.
tion by private prosecution that a
mol pros be taken against DeCover
was not acceptable to the state.
Vaughn Allen, attorney appearing
with the state, later recommended
that DeCover submit to a plea of
guilty to a charge of speeding,
Judge Lennon said, and this plea
was accepted by the state.
Judge Lennon said he then i'm.
posed fine of $50 and the costs on
DeCover and later, when it was
found that DeCover had already paid
about $500 for doctors and hospital
bills for the Thomason child, he
ordered that the fine and costs be
remitted in the case.
Evidence in the case, Judge Len
non said, indicated that the Thoma-
son child was riding a bicycle and
coming out from a side road when
he was struck and injured by a car
operated by DeCover on Chestnut
street just beyond the Burt Mill
Creek bridge.
Nature Of the child's injuries re-
1uired immediate hospital attention,
court officials said, and trial of De.
Cover on a charge Of reckless driv-
ing was postponed frequently be-,
cause Of the inability of the child
and his father to appear in the
,ourt at the same time.
Deputy Sheriff Register said the
warrant charging reckless driving
against DeCover was signed by Dep.
lty Sheriff Yopp on information and
,elief.
