FEW FISHY STORIES

COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) = Most
fishermen are honest when they
tell game protectors they left their
fishing licenses at home.
This is the conclusion reached
by Eldon Sturgeon, a district law
enforcement supervisor for h e
Ohio Division of Wildlife.
Sturgeon made survey to
learn just how many anglers ac-
tually did forget their licenses
and how many were cOncocting
fish stories.
When fishermen made this ex-
cuse, game protectors in Stur-
geon's southwestern Ohio district
asked the offenders to mail in their
licenses as proof.
During three-mOnth period,
122 anglers were given this break
Game protectors received licenses
from 101 of them.
Three were never located. Eight
cen were arrested and fined. And
what could be more humiliating
than a fisherman being caught by
a Sturgeon.

the United States, In the eyes Of
the world; in the eyes of the new
nations of Africa and Asia, with
out whose support our country is
lost in the great conflict between
east and west. Indeed, it would be
historically comical, if these Is
lands, where we have boosted that
amman beings have long lived in
harmony, regardless of their RAJ
c1al, nationality or religious back
ground, if here, we should go
backwards at the very time when
continental United States is Vi
gorously striving to catch up to
where the Virgin Islands have
been.'
Dr.. Fleming continued: In re-
ference to education, the govern
ment secretary, Mr.. King and I
are in agreement that the improve
ment OF our public school system
is fundamental. This improve
ment should not be limited to
plant and program but should al
so include personnel. As good and
oeulcaUed as most V. /. teachers
have been, some deadline should
be set by which all teachers should
have attained minimum profess
s1onal training to remain in the
system. This ruling should be ap-
plleG to all except those teachers
who are very old and are on the
eve of retirement.
1t we do not bring teachers,
plant and program up to par, we
are penalizing the children of all

cannot afford to send their chill
dren to private school, here or
abroad"
Turning to politics, proper, DR..

that having a native governor"
and a Virgin Islander as govern

plants about politics, he noted,

in nearly every place.
Politics is like sin, taxes and
death" he declared. I'VE can't es-
cape it and, at its best, politics is
a partner with government in serv

gets to be self-serving or to be
narrowly partisan" He continued:
Politics and political power
should be made subordinate to the
public good, in all things essential
and important. There is really no

Party way to keep streets clean,
to operate a good school system,
or to encourage civic cooperative

81 should much prefer that
you not use the word fan in
talking about Richard. It's q
vulgar corruption Of fanatic
a word which I trust can never
be accurately used to describe
him" Whew! Is it really an
insulting word?-T. C. o.
Answer: In actual use today
there's nothing derogatory
about fan" In fact most die
tionaries no longer even call
1t slang" Instead. it's con-
sidered "colloquial" - which
means that 1t may properly be
used in informal speech or
writing and should only be
avoided in situations calling
for completely formal language.
Your prospective father-in-
law may or may not be correct
about fans" origin. though.
Since it does describe a person
who is very enthusiastic about
a sport or hobby, there is good
reason to think that 1t may
have originated simply as a
shortened form of fanatic. "
As q matter Of historical rec
ord, the word fan" was so
used centuries before sports
like baseball and football were
invented-as a shortened form
OF fanatic" in the original
sense Of "madman."
However, most word experts
say that fan" in the sense of
a sports enthusiast did not ap-
pear in print until midway
through the 10th century-and
many of them feel that the
word may actually be a short
ened form of THE Fancy"
And what, you ask, Is THE
Fancy? Well, let's quote one

Pierce Egan, who started writ

Opening lead: Diamond five.
West opened the i've Of dia-
monds, and East won with the
king. East returned the 10 of
diamonds. forcing his partner
to run.
West had no trouble reading
the signal. East would have
led q low diamond II he
wanted q low suit (clubs) re-
turned; the high diamond
called for q high suit. West
therefore returned the queen
Of spades.
South played low from the
dummy. and Vests queen held
the trick. West continued with
the jack Of spades. and East
won with the ace.
Now East returned the ace Of
diamonds, and South was put
to the test. Should he ruff high
or low?
No Real Choice J.
From q logical point Of view,
South had no real choice. If
he ruffed low any overruff
by West would defeat the con-
tract. II West had no more
trumps. East had q sure trump
trick. In short, South was sure
to go down II he ruffed low.
South could make the con-
tract If he ruffed with the jack.
II this shut West out, as it
actually would, South could
then draw trumps and take the
rest Of the tricks.
It's very easy when you apply
cold logic. but 1t still takes q
little courage to step up with a

3-Cent Bus Fare Rise
Granted in Maryland

The D. C. Transit System is
expected to raise its first-zone
fare in nearby Maryland 8
cents January 22 to a total of
IS cents.
The Maryland Public Service
Commission yesterday author
ized the increase after ruling
that the bus company's Mont
gomery and Prince Georges
County operations are and will
be money losers. The company,
however. will have to file no
tice with the commission five
days before the new fares may
begin.
The decision does not change
the additional fare Of 8 cents
in a second service zone or Z
cents in the third zone.
First Zone Plea Only
D. c. Transit asked only for
the first-zone increase in its pc
tition filed last September Is.
At the time the company had
asked that new first.zone fares
be made effective in 30 days.
Testimony at q hearing De-
cember II showed that even
with the increase the firm
would lose $479.388 annually

land suburbs. The firm showed
an operating loss Of 1922. 1853
in Maryland during the six
month period ending last Sep
tember 80.
The PSC said one Of the rea-
sons the company was willing
to continue the Maryland OPP
erations at q loss was because
the service provides feeder
routes for its lines within the
District.
Challenge Allowed
Yesterday the United States
Court Of Appeals ruled two at
torneys had the right to chal-
lenge o fare raise granted last
March to the company. The
decision upset . District Court
ruling which said 1t had not
been shown that the lawyers
were riders Of the D. G. Transit
System.

raised the cash fare In the
District from 20 TO Is cents.

sion is now considering another
