Th«‘ reasons for this at traction are well known. The weeds are an apart ment house to the micro scopic animal life that live in a lake. Minnows and other small fish go there seeking this aquatie life and has* and other game fish go there seeking the smaller fish. The weed beds also provide cover for the game fish, and they like to be protected from even larger game fish that could be about. This is where a predator called man comes in. He. too. heads for the weed beds, to comb out the game fish that he wants for his din ner. Now a bait man is quite happy with this situation, by and large, because he can dunk a minnow or a night crawler almost anywhere, regardless of how many weeds are in the way. He can pick out a small opening and plunk his bait in to it. with a good chance of catching a fish. Not so with the lure tossers. They are forced to either use a weedless plug or have each east come hack with the lure looking like a loaded hay rake. And while there are a few really weedless lures on the mar ket. most of them hang up when the going gets tough. So what can a dedicated artificial lure man do? He can glide along silently with the prop on his feather weight Mere 60 barely turn ing over, flipping lures beside the overhanging mass of weeds, searching for tiny channels and holes in which he can drop a surface plug, or working just off the edges with a deeper lure. He might lose a few lures in so doing, but the rewards will more than justify their loss. MR. AND MRS.

In 1961 the President's Committee on Equal Employment Opportunity began a campaign to sign holders of large govern ment contracts who agreed to the principle of equal hiring practices. Two years later 105 companies repre senting some of the largest in the country including Western Electric , Lockheed , Good year, and many others have signed . These companies pledged to hire voluntarily per sons regardless of race, creed or color. Vice President Lyndon Johnson heads the committee and his efforts have been little else than routine o He has made dozens of speeches before both white and Negro groups extolling the virtues of the President's Com mittee on Equal Employment Opportunity „ Some of the companies have given a few tok en jobs mainly in the maintenance depart ments, while the majority of them have merely signed and continued their usual discriminatory hiring practices . There seems to be little done except the signing of Plans for Progress—after each signing a banquet is held to toast the com panies and nationwide publicity releases are dispatched. Vice President Johnson has been given the job of heading a vital committee but he has managed to keep it ineffective and use it as a popularity group „ ««"■■■ —-r--> -> O.D. SAYS....
