  • Sports 5 July 1, 1982 Western Carolinian McGill Signs With St. L ouis Eddie McGill, a former WCU football standout, has signed a series of one-year contracts with the St. Louis Cardinals of the NFL. McGill excelled at the tight end position under Coach Bob Waters, catching a total of 61 passes in his last two years as a collegiate athlete. With bonuses and incentive clauses. McGill's rookie year contract totals $117,000. McGill, an Enka High graduate, was a double sport threat for WCU. A long jumper for the track team, McGill impressed the Cardinals organization with his speed. At 6'5", 230 pounds, McGill runsanimpressive4 5 in the 40 yard dash. McGill's contracts, which run over a span of three years, total S33O.0OO. "I never dreamed I had a shot at that kind of money," McGill was quoted as saying. McGill has survived the Cardinals mini-camp, and will report to the pre-season camp July 18. Although McGill has a good chance of playing a lot ol ball, rumors are living ot an impending NFL strike. This may, however, prove a bonus to McGill, who did not sign a union card on the advice ot his agent, Mike Corbi. McGill stated that "the general feeling is that they're going to wait until the third game of the season, when it will hurt the most." His impressive performance so far has allowed McGill the chance at better than average money, especially for a rookie. McGill was picked by the Cardinals in the 10th round. The Carolinian extends to him continued wishes lor the best of luck Very big things could lie ahead for this young man, who keeps exceeding his goals. LMP Movie!

July 2 Admission $1.50 Jackson Offers Fine Fishing The Jackson County area offers some of the finest trout fishing in the state. The novice fisherman may wish to try his luck in the Tuckaseigee River. This river is periodically stocked with delicious pan size trout and allows even the inexperienced sportsman a chance to catch trout. The Tuckaseigee River.also produces fine native and natural trout. The trout fisherman may also choose to venture into some of the streams local to the Jackson County area. Both Cullowhee Creek and Tilley Creek produce an array of native and natural trout. Trout as large as Conrad Frady's twenty-four inch rainbow have been taken from these small streams in recent years. Green's Creek, Scott's Creek, and Caney Fork Creek are also streams that the more experienced fisherman will find both challenging and rewarding. All of the streams mentioned with the exception of the upper portion of Caney Fork are either classified as general trout waters or are unclassified. This allows any person with either a state or local fishing license and a trout stamp to take trout by means of hook and line. The trout in these waters seem to prefer spinning lures, corn and nightcrawlers. Update On Carr WCU basketball standout Ronnie Carr was transferred to the coronary care unit of North Carolina Memorial Hospital Saturday where he was listed in "serious" condition. The senior from Orangebury, S.C. was admitted to the hospital June 19 following a collision with a Chapel H ill police car. Having already had surgery for multiple injuries suffered in the accident, Carr is now reportedly undergoing tests to see if the collision caused any heart damage. Carr's many accomplishments at WCU include two selections to the All-Southern Conference team and one to the All-Freshman team. The 21 year old. 6'3" guard led the Southern Conference in scoring last season. Famous for his outside shooting, Carr would have benefitted from the new conference rule making the three point basket shorter. The former high school All-American led Western to a 19-8 record and a second place finish in 1982. One of three returning starters, Carr was expected to fill the void created by the graduation of Greg Dennis and Kevin Young. For A Truly European Experience Come & Dine With Us Open Mon. - Sat.
