Gun Owners
Set Meetings
I WASHINGTON - Georgia
jgun owners are meeting in a
{statewide series of gathering
to strengthen and enlarge
the Georgia Sports Shooting
Association.
The GSSA serves as
spokesman for Georgia
sportsmen before the state
legislature, sponsors shoot
ing tournaments and selects
teams for national shooting
events.
The association expects a
stiff fight over proposed gun
control legislation during
1981, and hopes to well pre
pared to fight firearms con
trol bills, according to
Edwin B. Topmiller of At
lanta, the group’s secretary.
Merle Preble, the National
Rifle Association’s field rep
resentative for the state, will
attend each of the meetings.
Judging The
Last Coach
By JOHN EARL RABER
Frank Sinatra popularized
a song entitled, “Life is
Wonderful the Second Time
Around.” It is a song that
could quite easily describe
the situation existing for
many coaches starting in
new job enviroments. In
short, the new coach that
you observe this academi
c/athletic year almost cer
tainly has a better deal than
the last coach.
Most of us know littl£» if
anything, about the total job
set-up of the last coach. Did
the last coach have a plan
ning period, or for that mat
ter did the last coach have to
teach class? Did the last
coach have a good weight
training facility, an absolute
necessity in developing a
winning program? What
were the salary supplements
and benefits afforded the
last coach? Did the last
coach get to setup his own
varsity schedule? Did the
last coach get good uniforms
and the proper equipment
needed for a winning pro
gram? Did the last coach get
good cooperation from the
school administration? Did
the last coach get the full
support of the athletic
booster club? Was the last
coach given adequate time
to develop a winning pro
gram? Did the last coach get
adequate news media pub
licity for his team players?
bid the last coach have good
flayers with which to work?
\ You certainly must have
jjthe idea by now. Everyone
|will praise the greatness of
jthe new coach. In many
cases the praise is justified,
but in many others it is a sit
uation where one coach sac
rificed a few or many years
bf his life trying unsuccess
fully to convince everyone
!what was necessary for a
(winning program. No one
{seemed to believe the last
jcoach, whereas everyone is
their tail to see to it
that the new coach has the
best of everything. Be aware
that in many situations the
hew coach is in fact a lot bet
ter than the last coach. Then
again, be aware that the peo
ple of the community most
.likely forced the school ad

The Dare IV and a little wood can help you save
big on heating.
The Dare IV fireplace furnace can dramatically reduce
your heating costs. It’s so efficient, an amazingly small
amount of wood can heat your entire home. In fact, one
3,700 square foot home is heating with a single Dare IV. ■
Dare IV owners who used to heat with electricity report
savings of over 67% of kilowatt usage* Whether you now
heat with electricity, oil or gas, a Dare IV can help
you save big.
Here’s how it works.
Draft intakes and damper control.
The air intakes and damper control \
allow you to fine-tune the fire’s \
burning rate according to the amount \
of heat you require.
Air-tight, cast-iron doors.
The doors on the Dare IV shut
air-tight so you can control the fire's
burning rate. This means you can get
a longer burn time from a load of
wood, which saves you money.
Both the standard solid doors and
the optional glass doors shut air
tight with progressive locks. In fact,
the entire Dare IV is a unitized, air
tight heating system.
Pressure equalizing plenum. „
The static pressure of air entering
the plenum is equalized before it
enters the furnace. This means air
won't bypass hot spots.
A proven money saver.
Our tests have shown that the Dare IV can heat a four
bedroom, 3,700 square foot home for twelve solid hours on
one load of wood* Your results will vary, of course, with
varying conditions. But, we're sure the Dare IV will
dramatically reduce the cost of heating your home. In fact,
some Dare IV owners report that savings paid for their unit
during the very first year of operation.*
Plus, the Dare IV is built to last by Harrington Manufac
turing, builders of fine industrial, agricultural and energy
products since 1922. Compare the Dare IV to other
inserts. You’ll see the differences in the Dare IV!

Features no other fireplace insert can match.
We know of no other fireplace insert that combines ail
these efficiency features: two, front mounted blowers, an air
mixing plenum, and nine heat tubes mounted directly above
the fire. Plus, the Dare IV is solidly constructed by Harring
ton Manufacturing. Compare a Dare IV to any other insert.
You’ll be surprised at Dare's solid construction and
ingenious design.
Ask your Dare dealer.
Ask your Dare dealer to tell you more about the Dare IV'
fireplace furnace. He probably has one in his own home.
And, he can help you install your own Dare IV in a matter of
minutes.
Your dealer also has good ideas about types of wood, adjust
ing your Dare IV for maximum efficiency, and more about
Dare IV’s design.
But, we think his best idea is recommending the Dare IV
fireplace furnace.
