ATLANTA (PRN) First
chance I get. I'm going trout
fishing in North Georgia.
That's something I haven’t
gotten around to yet this year,
even though the summer is just
about over.
And when I do, I’ll bet I’ll
have the best trout fishing trip
of the year for me. The more I
gallivant across the country,
the more 1 realize that the best
fishing to be found anywhere is
right here at home in Georgia.
What’s prompted this latest
outburst is that I've just re
turned from vacation. You
may have noticed that the last
two columns were written by
Gaine & Fish staff writers
Marvin Tye and John Culler. I
hadn't been home to my native
midwest in about four years, so
this was the year.
While I was out that way, I
had to pay a visit to Colorado,
a land that I love. The scenery
is tremendous. And I wouldn't
think of going there without
my fishing tackle. (1 wouldn’t

think of going anywhere with
out my fishing tackle.)
For years I’ve wanted to
take a crack at those Rocky
Mountain trout. So this time,
with a little coaching from a
brother-in-law who lives in
Colorado Springs, I took to the
high country in search for
some action.
To tell you the truth, the
trip involved a great deal of
traveling, sightseeing, visiting
relatives, camping and similar
motre more more more more m<
activities, so fishing time was
actually very limited. Maybe I
didn’t really give those
mountain streams and beaver
dams a fair chance.
But I'm glad I don't have to
pay such a high price for meat
every day!
It’s always been my opinion
that most good fishermen are
good because they know their
home waters. It’s fun to travel
around and sample fishing in
different parts of the country.
4-H Members

Sewing Class
Four Chattooga County 4-H
Club girls recently completed a
summer sewing course in
Rome. Barbie Pickle, daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Wilburn Pickle
of Menlo; Melody Langston,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C. F.
Shipman, of Cloudland; Lynne
Greene, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Robert Greene;and Susan
Tucker, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Gene Tucker, Summer
ville, participated in the course
along with 70 other girls in the
Rome area.
Under the direction of Mrs.
Ruth Sherman and Mrs. Athene
Adair, these girls studied pat
tern selection, alteration and
construction. Each made a
simple cotton dress. Barbie and
Susan were among 30 girls
competing in the "Young
Stylemaker” contest on Thurs
day night, Aug. 20, in Rome.
Winners of the Young Style
maker awards were Judy John
son, sub-deb division, and
Holly Holden, junior miss
division. The two winners are

yet if you’re out to catch fish
you’re better off in familiar
waters.
There are folks who find it
hard to believe Georgia trout
fishing can be good . . . heck,
there are people who don’t
even know we have mountain
trout fishing in Georgia. Well,
let me tell you, not only has
most of my trout fishing been
done in Georgia, my best trout
’ fishing has been in Georgia.
Just because we’re in the
Deep South doesn’t mean our
waters aren’t cold enough or
good enough . . . they are. This
year has been a good one for
me to compare. Two months
ago I fished in the Idaho trout
waters and this month in
Colorado. I dare say our fishing
compares favorably with both
states, from what I have seen.
There’s a lot of working
going into Georgia’s trout
streams. The State Game &
Fish Commission puts a lot of
hours and effort into seeing
that our trout fishing is good.
It’s more than just a case of
turning loose fish from a
hatchery, and letting folks
catch them. The Commission
studies streams continuously,
finding out what is best for
each stream. We study anglers,
too, to determine their needs
and desires. This year, for
example, at least one stream in
each management area is set
aside for quality wild trout
fishing
And perhaps you can’t build
a trout stream, but you can
improve one .. . and some
times you can improve a
stream that isn’t a trout stream
now but someday will be.
Georgia now has about a
thousand miles of trout fishing,
compared to some 700 miles of
only a few years ago.
Georgia fishing is good now,
and getting better all the time.
Your license fee helps make it
so.

Reports^fM People
ATLANTA (PRN)-It is a
fact that more Americans have
died in automobile accidents
during this century than in all
the wars from 1750 to the
present, including Vietnam.
And with the number of deaths
on the highways already near
the one and three-fourths mil
lion mark, it is expected that
the two million level will be
reached by 1972.
And these figures do not
even take into consideration
the millions of citizens who
survive, yet must live with the
constant reminder of a lost
limb, a scarred body, or the
terrible memory of tragedy.
In Georgia, this problem of
death and destruction on the
highways is being met by a
unified, coordinated effort, un
surpassed in the history of our
State. The concern and deter
mination of thousands of re
sponsible Georgians have been
focused upon the goal of
making our highways safer.
The Georgia Safety Council has
been especially effective, in
seeking the support and fi
nancial assistance of business
and industry.
And 1 intend to join the
Georgia Safety Council in this
drive by writing to Georgia's
top several hundred business
and industry leaders, asking
them to increase their emphasis
on traffic safety in their adver
tising campaigns and public re-
will be able to take normal
load of 16 hours.”
Evening courses to be
offered this fall include: Eng
lish composition, Western
World literature, music litera
ture, elementary psychology,
American government, Ameri
can history, introduction
sociology, college algebra, prin
ciples of accounting, finite
mathematics, principles of car
pet industry, tufting industry
management, tufting industry
marketing, principles of eco
nomics, elementary typing and
shorthand, and various courses
from the allied health studies.
All applications for the
1970-71 fall quarter must be in
the registrar's office by Sept. 4.

lations programs.
You know, we recom
mended to the Georgia General
Assembly this year that more
troopers be added to our High
way Patrol, knowing that lives
would be saved as a result, and
the 75 new troopers we got
will undoubtedly do just that.
And even though civil dis
orders have at times taken
hundreds of our Highway
Patrolmen away from their
traffic law enforcement duties,
so far this year, deaths on
Georgia’s highways are down
five per cent over last year.
At the end of last week,
1,033 fatalities were recorded
in Georgia during 1970, com
pared to 1,090 for the same
period in 1969-a reduction so
far of 57.
And this decrease is even
more remarkable when you
consider that in 1969, Georgia
ranked number one nationwide
on the percentage increase of
gasoline consumption, and in
the percentage increase of
motor vehicle registrations.
If traffic fatalities in Geor
gia had increased five per cent,
as motor vehicle registrations
and total miles traveled have
this year, instead of being
down 57, there would be 114
more highway deaths on the
record books than there are
today.
We in Georgia have gone all
out to establish and improve
traffic safety programs at every
level in our State. The Office
of Coordinator of Highway
Safety, under the outstanding
guidance of Ben Jordan, was
created during this Administra
tion. This new office has set
the pace in the nation for get
ting programs implemented
and working with federal,
State, city, and county pro
grams to gain uniformity.
