White Bass Abound
In Local Waters
Notice to Georgia fishermen!
If you get a white bass that’s
anywhere near the five pound
mark, DON’T EAT IT! It could
very well be a new state re
cord, and it might even be a
world record.
Dean Wohlgemuth of the Geor
gia Game and Fish Commission
says that Georgia has several
white bass that could easily break
the world mark. At least sev
eral anglers in the past month
have reported white bass to the
Game and Fish Commission that
are bigger than the record. And
the state record, held by two
anglers, is a scant six ounces
below the world mark.
The latest report is almost
too fantastic to believe. Jim
Ellis of Conley, a car sales
man, called up this week to say
he had caught a white bass that
weighed in at exactly seven
pounds-thlnk of It! A whopping
seven pounds! This Is 1 3/4
pounds better than the record.
But, like another report or so
of record busters this spring,
this one fell by the wayside,
a victim of the cleaning knife.
Oh, it was weighed, all right, and
in front of 17 witnesses. But
there may be some doubt about
the scales on which it was weigh
ed. And no picture was taken.
It would be next to impossible
to authenticate the fish as a
white bass.
Rather than list all the state’s
records here, the best suggest
ion is to get a copy of Game
and Fish Magazine that lists all
state and world records, includ
ing rules on how to enter the
Georgia contest. If you have
a world record, the Game and
Fish Commission will be glad
to tell you how to enter your
THE COVINGTON NEWS
fish.
Failing all else, write to the
Game and Fish Commission’s
Information Office, 401 State
Capitol, Atlanta, Georgia 30334,
and ask for a few entry forms.
Don’t wait till you catch that
big fish. Get the list right
away, and keep a copy in your
tackle box for quick reference.
That way, you’ll know better than
to eat what turns out to be a
record buster.

Fewer Farmers
The trend toward fewer and
fewer people on the farm which
means that ever fewer people
are growing the food and fiber
for an expanding nation is con
tinuing. According to the U. S.
Department of Agriculture, farm
employment last January reached
the lowest point since records
have been kept. The total farm
labor force for the week of Jan
uary 21 to 27 was only 3,493,000
persons.
Modern U. S. agricultural tech
niques have completely reversed
the historical relationship be
tween man and the land. For
thousands of years, the land de
manded and received the labor of
man to the limit of his ability
if he wished to keep himself
and his family from starving.
Today this story is entirely dif
ferent In the United States.
