PEPCo Notes

Die-hard fisherm from
Rockville and surrounding
areas, have a secret that haven't
been told too many people, and
no wonder. The fishing they've
been getting in the warm
waters downstream from the
PEPCO power plant, near the
Mouth of Monocacy, is hard to
believe.
There's Photographic proof
that anglers have brought in a
days catch exceeding so fish
on a number of occasions. Crap
pie, bass, suckers, catfish and
plenty of big carp are ending
up on fishermen's stringers.
Best bats seem to be worms
and minnoWs.
l haven't talked to anyone
who has been using artificials
but they should be good on bass
and crappie. The power plant
water outlet warns the river
for more than two miles down.
stream. For instance, recently,
at Whites Ferry the water
temperature along the Mary
land bank was 50 while near the
other shore it was a cold AZ.
Behind the island above
Whites is one of the better
places and I've seen stringers
of crappie that averaged from
II to Ia inches in length-that's
plenty big. The melting snow
is causing some muddiness to
the river water and until it
clears bass fishing will be a
little slow, but you certainly
can't say that for the other
species.
Boats can be run upstream
from the ferry but many fish.
ermen are stopping their cars
at the small branch that runs
down to Woods Lock on the
Martinsburg, Dickerson I'd. and
after short walk to the river,
fish from the bank.

ball title in the last three years.
Against previously unbeaten
Potomac State last week, Rudy
Rutelionis scored 40 points for
a school record as MIC dumped
Pot State with a late squirt in
the last four minutes. Rudy
made IA of 26 shots from the
floor to boost his point total t
143 and his average to 1873. The
other members of the good
shooters club are John Yerrick
with lit poines and a 13-point
average. Fred Sjcier with 113
points and a 1873 mark, Ed Ba.
ruch with 105 points and 11.6,
and Dan Kornegay with 98
points and a 1913 average. All
were in double figures against
PoIomac.
Despite lack of height
which sometimes robs it of an
extra shot there and there, MIC
has outscored its opponents 764-
504 this season. The 81 record
compares favorably with the
Knights 1859 pace when MIC
had lost two games at this
point. That year they won 10
straight in Conference play be-
fore being upset by Baltimore
JC to post a 240-4 record in TAX
ing the title. Last season MIC
finished the season at 1913.

I'm Maryland

There's a heap Of hunting
left for those who really want
to get some use from the old
scattergun. The snow law pre-
vented most of us from enjoy
ing what was hailed as one of
the best hunting seasons in
yearS-and it would have been
if we would have been able to
hunt.
Shooting preserves in Mary
land and Pennsylvania are open
until March 81. OF course,
many think it's too expensive,
but there's several points to con-
slider. You are guaranteed four
birds for the day, and that's
certainly not true when hunt
ing on farmland. If the cost of
enough trips to secure four
long-tails were added together,
it would probably exceed that
amount paid to the preserve
operator.
Don't get the idea preserve
hunting is too easy. Sure, if
you hunt near the pens you'll
get a few that are a little on
the tame side. But, try hitting
that swivel-winged quail or
pheasant out in the fields Of a
preserve and you'll find the pat
tern seems to have an awful
lot of holes in it.
The duck shooting is tough,
too. One top skeet shooter
claims it's even rougher than
trying to knock them from the
air over the Potomac or Chesa-
peake. If you're dubious, ride
out to one of the regulated
S h o ting grounds and look
around. You're in for pleas
ant surprise.
Where are these preserves?
Your sporting goods dealer can
give you detailed information
on any of the several located
within driving distance. Prob
ably the best managed of these
1 have observed is the Onon-
daga operation near Potomac.
OF course, others are good, too.

Defending champion Mont
gomery County Sentinel took
over leadership of the Mont
gomery County Basketball

Keller Brick Contractors, 71-64,
who in turn played a close hand
in upsetting Mario Furniture,
54-53.
The Sentinels took Keller on
Wednesday as the leagues lead
ing scorer, Lenny Hedges
popped in SO points. The Senti-
nels then had a rough time
breaking through Hunt Con-
struction's man-for-man defense
on Sunday. The Sentinels broke
out from "A tie to gain a Is
point bulge with the half three
quarters gone. But Hunt led by
Larry Thompson pulled to with

ed, 1921. With about three min
utes to go Hunt crept to within
five points at 50-45 before Jack
Kelly came off the bench to
score a quick basket and Jim
McAuliffe hit on two foul at
temps to take the game out of
reach.
Hodges had Is and Herb ia
cobson IL for the winners, while
Thompson paced the losers with
IA. Hodges has 1876 points for
the season.
Bill McCaffrey's foul shot and
Tom Kopko's field goal in the
last minutes of play gave Keel
er a three-point margin over
Mario Sunday. Ray Shoots
short jumper brought the score
to 54-53. With less than 10 sec
onds to play Mario got the ball
for the last time and fed it to
Shoots, but his shot at the buzz
ger missed.
Mario jumped off to an early
10-4 lead, but Keller slowly
caught up and moved ahead
1925 by halftime. In the Sec
ond half Keller widened its lead
to eight points but Mario closed
the gap at the end Kopko was
high man for the winner with
ID points, while Micky Sands
had IA, Bob Daniels II, and
Shoots 10 for the losers.
Naval Ordnance Lab picked
up its first two wins of the sea-
son by defeating American In
strument, 60-36, and Govern
ment Employees Insurance, g.

For the knights it will be
their third game of the week
and probably against their
toughest opponent of the sea-
son. MIC played cambridge and
st. Mary's &c after the Sentinel
went to press.
IF we play Friday nike we
did last Saturday night, we'il
be match for any ball club"
Coach Don Conner said, which
has the best record for this
time of the season of any of his
MIC teams.
I'VE have good shooters. if
our defense holds up we should
be pretty tough. Well probably
use zone against Shenandoah.
There are weak links in our
man-for-man defense and the
zone worked well in the whole
game against Potomac State"
he said.
Last Saturday was the night
when the good shooters took
previously unbeaten Potomac
State into camp, 101-87, and
gave NIB the Tri-State Confer
ence lead. MIC has won eight
of nine games this season,
seven in league play. A win
over Shenandoah should give
the Knights a good start on

Chesapeake Beach. Md.

Last year, DIR. Curley Bird,
head man in the Department of
Tidewater Fisheries, marched
up to Annapolis and tried to get
himself a bill pushed through
which would compel every
angler to buy a license before
he could fish the tidewaters of
our State. 1t became immedi-
ately apparent that there was
no one outside the Department
of Tidewater Fisheries who had
any desire to pay this tax. So
DR.. Bird backed off.
Now he is back again. This
time he has switched things
around little. Instead of trying
to nail everyone all at once. He
is going at it differently. He
popped bill ir the hopper first
thing this session that would
require all charter boat opera
tors to be licensed. He may fig;
ure if he can get the charter
boat captains this year, he will
get the rest of the sports fish
ermen next year. He is propos-
ing in House Bill No. 9 that
each charter boat operator be
allowed to pay fee of $25 per
year before he can continue to
operate.
This is bad enough, but there
is more yet. In addition to tax
ing the charter boat operators,
he wants his department to
have the power to put these
people out of business. This
sounds a little drastic, but it is
all there spelled out in No. 9.
Under the heading Revocation
or suspension of licenses, it
says 1.-THE department is au-
thorized to revoke or suspend
for periods of not less than 10
days Git doesn't stipulate any
maximum number Of days, just
not less than 10 days.. Any IL
due hearing, etc. etc, upon the

five different grounds which is
silly because ground No. 3 takes
care of everything.
