ATLANTA (PRN) - Bill
Kennedy is the kind of fellow
all of us sportsmen just have
to envy. He did what most of
us would like to do.
After making his living in
the Big City for a number of
years - he was in heating and
air conditioning in Atlanta -
Bill got his fill of it, and
decided the outdoor life was
for him. There must be away
to make a living out of his
favorite pastime.
Now, I don’t recommend
that everyone do what he did,
because there is a somewhat
limited market, you
know . . but I’ve no doubt
that because of the growth in
outdoor recreation, there is a
need for more facilities.
So Bill and his wife Joyce
bought themselves a fish camp
on Lake Sinclair. He and his
wife operated Crooked Creek
Fish Camp while he still held
his job, until the camp was
paid for. Now, it's his whole
life.
1 don’t mean to say all he
does is work at the camp, for
after all, that would defeat the
purpose of it all. He does get a
chance occasionally, during
the off-season, to do a bit of
fishing and hunting himself.
Not long ago, I was after a
particular story for GAME &
FISH Magazine, and Bill
seemed to be just the man
who could help me get it. So 1
went to visit him. Several cold
days had slowed his business
down to a low level, and he
had time to get away.
A stiff, chilly wind had put
the fish down that day, and so
far as 1 could tell, nearly
everyone was going fishless.
While it’s true that there are a
lot of days during the winter
that there’s little use in taking
your rod out of its case. Bill
pointed out that you'll find
very few fishermen out even
hours of sale for cash the

Try Winter
Fishing
on the nice days in winter.
Those that do go, however, are
not at all disappointed that
the throngs are leaving the
lakes alone until spring. Winter
is a time of peace and quiet on
most of our waters.
Sure, says someone in the
back of the room, they’re
quiet all right. And the reason
is, because there’s no use
fishing.
Well, now, some of the
most dyed-in-the-wool
fishermen I know would just
as soon fish in the winter as
any season. And believe me,
they’re not the type of fellows
who waste time on the water
regularly without getting
action. They go not only
because of the elbow room,
but because they get fish.
There are plenty of days in
winter when it’s nice enough
to provide good fishing. Even
cold weather can produce
results, particularly if it has
been cold for a number of
days, and the fish have had
time to accustom themselves
to the winter climate.
You’re not likely to catch
as many fish in winter time,
but the thing about it is, you’ll
probably catch larger
fish . . .and the chances of
getting that lunker are never
better than in winter. Those
big rascals require more food
in winter, comparatively, than
do smaller fish.
Where do you get them?
You’ll find that a fish’s winter
habits are much like his hot
weather behavior. He’ll go to
deeper water, because he can
stay warmer there in that
season. Water levels are more
constant, too, than they are
on the surface.
It isn’t necessary to wait for
a balmy spring breeze if you’re
really sincere about wanting to
catch fish.

Health Campaign
Promises New
Training Centers
A statewide effort toestablish
training centers for the
retarded in every Georgia coun
ty has already led to “commit
ments” for a possible 75 to
85 new centers, according to
the State Health Department
psychologist who is coordinat
ing the program. The official
also reports that a strong
source of grass-roots support
for the project has turned up
across Georgia from parents of
retarded youngsters now await
ing admission to state insti
tutions.
Dr. Tom McConnell, health
department coordinator of com
munity mental retardation pro
grams, says that responses to
a survey of some 1700 parents
indicates that a neighborhood
center providing day-care and
training for their retarded child
would in many cases completely
eliminate the child’s need for
hospitalization.
Dr. McConnell, working
through local health depart
ments, has just completed a
series of 15 citizens’ meetings
— one in each health district
in the state — to explain the
details of the “Title IV-A pro
gram” which will provide up to
75 per cent of training center
costs from U. S. Social Security
funds. Funding grants under
Title IV-A are administered
by the State Department of Fam
ily and Children Services.
“The meetings generated a
great deal of interest and en
thusiasm,” said Dr. McConnell.
“We can already forsee the
opening of 75 to 85 new centers
just from commitments made
at the meetings.”
He explained that some 3000
retardates could be served by
the new centers when they are
in full operation. "There are
ally 63 centers operating in
Georgia now,” the psychologist
added, “and we could use 200.

There are probably 12,000 chil
dren in the state who need
this type of care.”
The replies to a mailed ques
tionnaire from the State Health
Department revealed a general
willingness by parents to be
come personally involved in
helping to set up the community
training centers, the health of
ficial said. According to Dr.
McConnell, a response from
tire Tattnall county mother of
a retarded child summed up
the attitudes of those return
ing the questionnaire, “I’ll be
willing to help any way I can,”
she stated, "if someone will
help me.”
The parents were asked if
they would agree to provide
local leadership in starting a
new center, work on a project
committee, join a local associ
ation for retarded children,
solicit or donate funds for a
training center, or work in a
center either as a volunteer
or for pay. Dr. McConnell indi
cated that while the responses
varied, “the vast majority” of
those returning the query
agreed to become personally
involved in establishingatrain
ing center in their area.
The State Health Department
is still soliciting evidence of
interest from groups or indi
viduals desiring to participate
in the Title IV-A program.
Additional information, includ
ing copies of a booklet, “How
To Start A Training Center
For The Mentally Retarded In
Your Community,” are avail
able from the Georgia Depart
ment of Public Health Room

Details Listed
For 1972 Feed
Grain Progiam
Three separate options to
set aside feed grain acreage
are key features of the 1972
Feed Grain Program according
to S. W. Yawn, Chairman of
the Telfair County Agricultural
Stabilization and Conservation
(ASC) Committee.
The new program, announced
October 18 by Secretary Clif
ford M. Hardin, was written
to encourage termers to set
aside at least 38 million feed
grain acres in 1972, compared
with 18.2 million in 1971. It
raises the feed grain set-aside
from 20 to 25 percent of the
feed grain base.
Once a termer decides to par
ticipate in the 1972 program,
he must sign up at the county
ASCS office between January
17 and February 25. There will
be no extended sign-up period
in 1972.
Mr. Yawn listed the feed
grain program optiais as fol
lows:
OPTION #1
To meet minimum qualifying
requirements for loansandpay
ments, a termer must agree to
maintain his conserving base
and to set aside 25 percent of
his feed grain base (com, grain
sorghum, barley).
The feed grain payment rate
for 1972 for the qualify ing set
aside is set at 80 cents per
bushel for com, 76 cents per
bushel for grain sorghum, and
64 cents per bushel for barley.
Mr. Yawn explained these
rates are paid on the establish
ed term yield times the quali-
fying set-aside acres (25 per
cent of the term base).
Loan rates will be $1,05 per
bushel for com, national aver
age, the same as in 1971: $1.79
per hundredweight for grain
sorghum (compared to $1.73
in 1971); 86 cents per bushel
for barley (compared to 81
cents in 1971); and 54 cents
and 89 cents per bushel, res
pectively, for oats and rye
(same as in 1971).
Once the minim jm qualifying
requirements are met the term
er is eligible for options #2
and #3.
OPTION #2
In addition to the qualifying
set-aside of 25percent, a term
er may set aside additional
acreage up to 10 percent of
his com and grain sorghum
base, and up to 20 percent
additional of his barley base.
Mr. Yawn said the per acre
payment rate for this additional
set-aside of com will be 52
cents per bushel, 49 cents per
bushel for grain sorghum, and
42 cents per bushel for barley
multiplied by the established
yield for each crop.
OPTION #3
If a termer qualifies to par
ticipate by setting aside 25
percent of his base, and also
volunteers to set as ide addition
al acreage under option #2,
he may offer another 5 or 10
percent of his com and grain
base.
The Secretary of Agriculture
will announce by Mid-March
his acceptance of one or both
of the 5 and 10 percent offers.
In this event, the additional
payment rate and method of
computation are the same as for
com and grain sorghum as
under Option #2. There is no
third option for barley.
Early set-aside payments
will be made as soon as pos
sible after July 1, Mr. Yawn
said.

Baptist Leader
Evaluates White
House Conference
A Georgia Baptist Convention
executive said the recent White
House Conference on Aging
challenged churches and de
nominations to evaluate their
programs and enrich their
ministries to the elderly.
Searcy S. Garrison, Con
vention executive secretary and
a conference delegate, said the
inclusion of representatives
from religious bodies “recog
nized the important role they
exercise in service to elderly
people.”
Dr. Garrison attended the
White House conference at the
invitation of President Nixon,
appointment of Gov. Jimmy
Carter, and recommendation of
the Georgia State Commission
on Aging.
The conference “succeeded
to a remarkable degree in
bringing together persons in
leadership positions as well as
representative older Ameri
cans to consider the acute
needs, the desires and aspi
rations of 20,000,000 people
in our country,” Dr. Garrison
said.
Older people are “often late
ly and frustrated” and “have
unmet spiritual needs.” Garri
son said they “wish to stare
in the fruits of the society
which they have helped to cre
ate” and to “enjoy the dignity
