Deadline for Houston golf HOF nears The deadline for nominations for the Houston County Golf Hall of Fame, housed at Houston Lake Country Club, is April 28, an nounced Peter Snipes, media direc tor for the Houston County Hall of Fame Golf Tournament. Nominees to the Hall will be evaluated on their long-time contri butions to the game in Houston County. Currently, there are five members of the Hall: Alan White, Brown McDonald Sr., Eddie Wig gins, Eddie Causey and Bobby Jones. Information on the nominating process can be obtained by contact ing the pro shop at any of the six member courses of the Houston County Golf Association. The member courses are Houston Lake Country Club, the Landings, Wa terford Golf Club, Pine Oaks Golf Club, International City Golf Club and Perry Country Club. The Pine Oaks Golf Course at Hornets, from 6A Nuss paces the Hornets at the plate, hitting a shade under .400 with two homers and 16 RBIs. "He's not getting good pitches," said Brown. "People are pitching around Troy (Nuss). He has to be patient so much, at times he be comes impatient." Talton and Staines are the aces of the Hornets staff. Talton, after getting off to an 0-5 start with an ERA around 7.00, has started pitch ing better in the last four games, recording all three wins, including a complete game shutout against Ge Soccer, from 6A behind to pull out the tie. He also noted that the squad was at less than full strength since many of the players were at a track meet. Richie Gill, the Panthers' lead ing scorer, also had an off day. "He (Gill) was not as sharp as he nor mally is," said Thomas. Thomas said for the Panthers to win consistently at soccer, they had to have others step up when one of their better players had an off day. "That's (an off-day) just human nature," said Thomas. "But, others have to take up the slack. To win consistently, you are going to have to do that." Thomas said the game showed his other players that they could take up the slack if one of his front line players was off. "In order to do the job, you have to believe that you can do the job," said Thomas. "Once you have done it, it is easy to have the confidence to do the job." The soccer team is also getting more respect in the school hallways since the recent wins, said Thomas. Tennis, from 6A bracket, where the men’s number one and number two teams had to face each other in their opening round. Travis Watson and John Shipley defeated their teammates Jeff Dortch and Miles Lancaster 6- 2, 6-7, 6-1. Shipley and Watson would go on to finish fourth in the tournament. Although most of the Hornet's tennis team will miss the state tournament, Crooms will have one men's doubles team and one Vertical, from 7A of no more than a couple inches in length. When the strike occurs, most of the time you will feel a hard down pull. At that time you had better be already setting the hook and trying to get the fish's head turned upward. This is very easy. With a small amount of practice, you can become proficient in another technique that Predictions, from 7a early fall. These fish tend to move back to the lower third of the reser voir by November and remain there through winter. Largemouth bass abundance continues to be very strong when compared to other Southeastern reservoirs. The fishery, however, is tough to pattern and presents a true challenge to the best angler. Condi tions created by the pump-storage operation may explain part of this phenomenon. Bass survival and growth is managed with a "protected slot" (11 to 14 inches) regulation to allow "culling” of smaller (six to eleven inches) fish for improved growth. Traditional minimum length or popular catch and release strategies are not the best approaches for pro ducing quality-size bass on this Robins Air Force Base will be the site of this year's Houston County Hall of Fame Golf Tournament. The event, which rotates among the six courses in the county, will be held Saturday, May 28. The annual Hall of Fame Ban quet will be held that night in the Officers' Gub. The primary banquet activity will be the induction of new members into the Hall of Fame. "The Hall of Fame was begun three years ago by Chris Murman and Mike McCollum of Houston Lake Country Club. The tournament and banquet are the primary fund raising activities supporting the Hall of Fame's scholarship program. Each year, six high school junior golfers—one from each of the participating courses—are awarded SI,OOO schol arships. Scholarship applications are now being accepted by participating orge Walton, the first and only complete game recorded by a Hornet pitcher this season. His ERA has come down to 5.71. Staines, a freshman, holds both of the Hornets other wins, having a record of 2-3 with an ERA of 3.50. Together, the two pitchers have all five of the Hornet wins, combining for an ERA of 4.52. Brown has used four other pitch ers on the mound this year. They are a combined 0-4, with a 7.23 ERA. "Before, we caught our share of abuse. But now, people are starting to take notice." Although Gill had an off-game, he scored the first goal for the Pan thers against Columbus, giving Perry the early 1-0 lead 20 minutes into the game. Boris Nedev had the only other goal for Perry, his goal coming 15 minutes into the second half. Karate, from 6A since I was 12 years old and now it’s come true," Bray said, as he tied on his tailor-made black belt. "This stint was better because of Chad's great leadership ability and his motivational technique. He helped me achieve my ultimate goal and I thank him for it." The two say that they definitely plan to continue training to get the next level. In about two years, they will be eligible to become women's double team to play in the state tournament next Wednesday. Even though Westfield did not get good draws over all, the doubles pair of Leslie Davis and Susanna Turner received a good draw that al lowed them to make it into the women's final. "They did an excel lent job," said Crooms. Davis and Turner dispatched the number two Tattnall duo of Stoser and Boone 6-2, 7-6 to advance to the semifinal round. The won the semifinal match against Monroe's will catch fish. Our congratulations go out to Jim and Nancy Windham of Bonaire on their 16th place finish on Lake Lanier. This was the third of five qualifying tournaments. Right now they are in strong contention for couple of the year. Until next time ... we've gone fishing. reservoir.

Applicants will be judged on grades and school and extracurricular activities. The scholarships are ap plicable to the student's college of choice.

The cost of a hole sponsorship is SIOO. Perry, fnomSA One item favoring the Panthers is that the region tournament will be played on familiar ground, Hous ton Lake Country Club, which has served for most of the year as the Panther's home course. "It's going to help us a lot," said Barton. Barton said the team to beat in the region tournament will be Ware County. "Ware County is, by far, the best team in the region," said Barton. "They shoot the lights out." While he is not conceding first place in the tournament to the Ga tors, Barton admits his team will have a tough time beating the team from Waycross. "If they (the Pan thers) had their best day, we could beat them," said Barton. "But, we need for Gann to be five or six strokes under and the others to be around three over." Behind Ware County are Fitzger ald and Wayne County, two teams that Barton said the Panthers can play with. "I think we have a good chance of winning second and going to the state (tournament)," said Bar ton. Barton said that going from match play, which in the GHSA is nine holes, to tournament play, which is the full 18 holes, would not hurt the Panthers, noting that his team has played in several 18 hole tournaments this year. Assistant Instructors under Lewis. "I'm definitely looking forward to having them help us out,” Lewis bragged. "They're so dedicated and focused, it's a pleasure to work with such people. It's always nice to have people who enjoy what they do." "I'm looking forward to helping teach," Douglas and Bray both agreed, "I want to help make sure that Perry Athletic Karate remains the best school around." Hinds and Vaugn 6-1, 6-1 to ad vance to the finals. However, George Walton's number one pair of Simmons and Williams would win the region's doubles title with a straight set 6-4, 6-1 win, ending Davis’ and Turner's run through the region bracket Watson and Shipley will play in the state tournament, as will Davis and Turner.
