Q GAME | AND FISH ' ^ By FULTON LOVELL It s Not the Color That Counts The beginning „f spring —that time when the horn’s of daylight become progressingly longer than the hours of darkness—brings anglers out into the open when nothing else will. Warm weather affects fishermen like candy affects a young child—they always want more. And it seems as if warm weather is here to stay now as old ! while Wln ^ er prepares ^ ade ou t °f the scene for a With the large amount of rain that has fallen over Georgia during the past winter months, lakes, rivers and streams are bursting at their banks and as the weather gets warmer, fish will begin their period of spawning. In warmer temperature fish are more active, thus requiring more food. This is the time when anglers begm to take action as they strive to outsmart the I wily fish enticing him to strike their inviting baits. In plotting methods to assure a good eatch, anglers think of every possible device to use. ; 1 hey try different types of lures as well as every '* imaginable color, and use equipment ranging from a cane pole to a spinning outfit. QUESTION PUZZLES FISHERMEN One controversial question that often arises among fishermen is whether or not fish can dis tinguish between colors. Can thy actually tell the d™f r -t n n e m C0 4°u’ S J? f and if 80 what influence does it have on theit striking? j There are arguments pro and con on this question, and many hours of research have gone into the attempt to answer it. In one test, colored flies were presented to a group ° f fi fh u . nder 8tad y- and it was found that the fish would take equally well a red,.Tblue or green fly Color had nothing to do with their striking the lure, but the size oi the fly, the pattern and the life-like action fLkirs m tHe Wat6r Seem ' d t0 be the determi nin* However, other experiments have proved that l j Can distinguish color if their eyes are in the shade and they are looking from the shade into sunlight. Biologists agree that both sides of the issue are correct. It seems that fish are color blind on a bright day when their eyes are in the sun, and they are looking into the sunlight. But, during the shadow .°^ be da 7’ the y seem to be able to distinguish the brighter colors. Whatever the answer, you can bet that anglers will continuously plot better ways to catch fish and increase their creel. GOOD SEASON AHEAD Several Georgia lakes and rivers have already reported good fishing, and it will be better as the weather continues to get warmer. Reports from south Georgia show that Lake Lake Blackshear, the Chattahoochee and +'u in ^-/^ 1V fu :S are ^ es t fishing spots in this area thus far this year. They may prove to be real “hot epots later in the spring. And, in north Georgia several lakes including Sin- clair, Nottley, Allatoona, Lanier, Weiss, Burton and Blue Ridge have been turning in some mighty favor able reports Predictions are that these will be top Bpots for fishing this season. 1.

The amount of the pension is de termined by a scale based upon the veterans other income. A pension can also be denied if the veteran has substantial capital assets. Married veterans drawing social security payments at the same time will: not normally be seriously pen alized on the amount of their pen sion. If the social security and bther income amounts to between $1,000 and $2,000 a year a qualified parried veteran will receive $75.00 month pension. Single veterans without depend ents, however, are limited to $70.00 per month if their social security apd other income is between $600 and $1,200 a year, and to only $40.- 00 per month if their other income is between $1,200 and $1,800. The law does, however, exempt from income that portion of social security payments which the vete ran has contributed to the program himself. This normally means that several months pass before the so cial security payments count as in come. Veterans 60 through 64 years of age require a disability of at least 50 percent to qualify for a pension, The Board Members of the Taylor l and those 55 need a 60 percent dis*- County Commissioners announce lability.

This annual event, sponsored by the Garden Club of Georgia and local garden clubs, opens some of the loveliest private homes, gardens, and historic buildings to public inspection and admiration. Eleven communities are participating this year and among the new comers is Thomson, Georgia. Taking its theme from the state organiza tion, "Georgia In Living Color,” the Thomson Council of Garden Clubs, is handling local arrangements. High on the list of “musts” you see is “Hickory Hill,” home of the late Senator Thomas E. Watson, father of Rural Free Delivery and one time presidential candidate. The original estate covered nearly a quaarant of Thomson. The present 20 acres abound with beautiful trees and shrubs, many planted by Watson. For years, between No vember 1 and March 1, he planted a tree or shrub every day. Other homes on tour are "Pine Bloom,” colonial home of Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Lokey. It was once featured in House beautiful magazine. With its second story baloony and wrought iron railings, the John. W. Wilson home suggests the flavor of old New Orleans. Georgia peaches and fine houses are two products of Seymour Farm, belonging to Mr. and Mrs. P. S. Knox, Jr. The contemporary home of Dr. and Mrs. John Thomas was among the first built on the original estate of Hickory Hill, and to complete the homes tour is the contemporary house of Mr. and Mrs. Alien.! Rimmer. U Many gardens are to be seen, but visitors will particularly enjoy- the countless camellias, fiftsei*, flowering cherry and other plants in the- Lovelace Gardens.
