Baker Explains Plan
For Upping Licenses
Robert S. Baker, formerly of Summerville, now
coordinator of Special Services for the State Game
and Fish Commission, has explained how the pro
posed increases in the state hunting and fishing li
censes would affect Chattooga County B
Mr. Baker discussed the matter in a lengthv let
ter to Tom Smithson of the c “S^y let
Chattooga Wildlife Club.
In the letter, Mr. Baker
said present plans call for
doubling the trout output
at the Summerville Fish
Hatchery. This would in
volve building additional
raceways, extending and en
larging water lines and
doing other enlarging which
would cost from $40,000 to
$50,000, said Baker.
“This cannot be done
without the additional
money,” said Baker, “and
therefore opposition to the
proposed license increase
boils down to opposition to
spending $40,000 to $50,000
in Chattooga County.”
Baker said there is also a
possibility that if the en
larging is done, one or two
additional employes may be
added at the Summerville
Hatchery.
Other programs planned,
if the money is made avail
able, said Baker, include:
Adding some 10 wildlife and
fisheries biologists over the
state; a stream survey in
Northwest Georgia to deter
mine the feasibility of
smallmouth bass stocking
and possibly some trout
stocking; a public waters
access program which could
provide new access to Lake
Weiss; more public hunting
areas, the development of
which would be dependent
upon having enough bi
ologists to propagate the
game and enough enforce
ment officers to protect the
areas.
Mr. Baker said that dur
ing the 1963-64 season, a
total of 3,885 licenses were
sold in Chattooga County,
bringing in a total of $5,804.
“This $5,804 looks small
when you compare it to the
$40,000 to $50,000 which we
would like to spend up there
if we could get the money,”
continued Baker.
In connection with a sug
gestion by Rep. James H.
Floyd that the Commission
go into the surplus for any
needed funds, Baker said:
“First of all, they hold the
surplus money for emer
gency funds generally and
secondly, we take the posi
tion that this money should
not have to come out of the
general fund because this is
tax money paid by all the
citizens of Georgia and we
feel that the sportsmen of
the state are wiling to pay

their own way by paying a
little bit more for their li
cense. I might add that if
the money was made avail
able to us from out of the
surplus, we would accept it
because we can’t afford to
be too particular about
where the money comes
from just as long as we get
it.”
Mr. Baker said one thing
that has caused a great deal
of misunderstanding is the
proposal for a salt water li
cense. “We do not propose
that a special license be
issued for salt water. We
simply are asking that those
people fishing in salt water
be required to possess the
same license that they have
to have to fish in fresh
water.”
For March 20
6 Red and
Black’ Day
Slated
Preliminary plans for “Red
and Black Day” on March
20 are now being made by
Chattooga High School.
This will be the occasion
of the annual intra-squad
spring football game, slated
for 8 p.m. On the preceding
night, a parent-son athletic
banquet will be held. In ad
dition, the possibilities of a
parade are being discussed.
Tickets to the game will
go on sale early in February,
Coach Edwin Hicks has an
nounced.
New cheerleaders will be
chosen between now and the
time of the game and they
will be divided in “Red”
cheerleaders and “Black”
cheerleaders. In addition,
the student body may divide
into “Red” and “Black”
groups, according to the
team they support, said
Coach Hicks.
Some 55 to 60 boys are
working toward football and
they will be divided into
groups of 30 for each team.
“The student body is 100
per cent behind this pro
gram,” said Coach Hicks,
“and we hope the commu
nity will join us in support
ing it.”
Chattooga
Vs. E. Rome
After a terrible defeat in
Tuesday night’s game, the
CHS girls really showed they
had fire and stick-ability
against the East Rome
Gladiators. Although the
score, 17 to 59, may seem
otherwise to you, that’s be
cause YOU didn’t attend the
game.
Coach Olaf Bergwall ex
pressed his pleasure in all
the girls who played. The
girls really showed improve
ment as they were continu
ally alive and aggressive.
Pat Busby, Nancy Floyd,
Honey Echols and Pam
Hubler, all guards, made
especially fine showings.
Marcia Boney was high
scorer with 13 points. Helen
Housch had 4.
Another close game for
the CHS boys! The Indians
and Gladiators fought in a
tight, tingling game, neither
team ever getting a safe
lead. Then, as if some ill
fate turned on us, CHS could
not hit. For nearly two quar
ters, no one on the team
could get the ball through
that net, not even Lefty
Norton who was as hot as
fire the first half. The final
score was 51-39.
Chattooga Vs. LaFayette
The CHS girls’ game
against the Ramblers was a
show of continued improve
ment on the CHS part. Al
though they haven’t won
yet, they are getting better
with each game. Pudgy Ed
wards was most outstanding
in the forward position,
having 13 points. Marcia
Boney had 6, Helen Housch
2, Jeanette Ponder 2 and
Vicki Smallen 2. The final
score was 55 to 25.
In a nip and tuck struggle
Tuesday night with the
Ramblers, the CHS boys lost
by one coveted point. Chat
tooga led the first half,
leaving the court with a 12
to 16 lead. The third quar
ter proved a nice one for
LaFayette, as they came
back and got ahead. The
last eight minutes were
filled with excited freezing
and full court pressing as
each team fought to win. It
was truly a heartbreaker in
the end, a loss of 40 to 39.
High scorer again was Lefty
Norton and top rebounder
was Charlie Lowry.
“Truth is so precious some
people use it sparingly."

Did you think the Declaration of Independence
was carried around on parchment scrolls and read in 1
town squares by little old men wearing funny hats, I
white pony tails and ringing little bells?
Not so. The historic news was spread by papers
like The Pennsylvania Evening Post. And these papers
were supported by advertisers like Hyns Taylor, up
holsterer, and David Pancoast, realtor, both of whom
had ads immediately following the listing of the dec
laration.
The same holds true today.
Without advertisers, the paper you’re reading right
now might cost one dollar or more.
(At those prices some people would much rather
wait for the little old man ringing the little bell.)

Trion’s Jones
Confirms Ouster
Trion High Coach Gordon
Jones confirmed Wednesday
that he has been told his
coaching and teaching con
tracts would not be renewed
for the forthcoming year.
Jones, who has been a
coach and teacher at Trion
10 years, said he was notified
of this plan by School Supt.
A. J. Strickland on January
5. When asked the reason
given, Jones said, “I think
it was the coaching end.”
Trion High’s 1964 football
season was 4-6 and the team
lost to Summerville, a kqy
opponent.
Mr. Jones, who teaches
physical education, health
and social studies, said he
has not yet made plans for
next year.
In the meantime, Coach
Billy Hayes of Trion High
said Wednesday he has been
told his coaching and teach
ing contract will be renewed
but he doesn’t yet know on
what basis.

Everything else—the entire cost of news gather- I
ing, pictures, typesetting and printing—has to be borne ,
by advertising.
It's the same with magazines, radio and television.
Perhaps we wouldn’t be in the dark ages without
advertising, but we'd certainly be in the dark.
Os course, there’s always the possibility that the ;
government would subsidize newspapers, magazines,
radio and television. But in that case, we could hardly
expect members of the government to use these media
to publicize their own shortcomings or mistakes.
It is apparent, then that advertising is intimately
connected with freedom of speech and freedom of the
press.
