Friday, May 6, 1966 The Western Carolinian Page 11 Behind The Scene By Don Lucas, Sports Editor The athletic year, 1965-66, has been most successful here at Western this year. With four intercollegiate sports sharing the spotlight, the Catamount rooters have had plenty of excitement to help ease the pain of classroom cramps. Trout Fishing Popular Summer Sport In Western North Carolina Mountains With the success Western has enjoyed this year, no one should complain about having winning athletic teams. Fall quarter had barely opened when Coach Dan Robinson led a determined group of football players a- gainst a strong Carson-Newman squad. The Catamounts used a fired up defense and a long touchdown bomb to down the Eagles, 8-7. From there until the end of the season, the Catamounts could be described as hustlers, with determination strongh enough to move a mountain. The Cats led the league in defense and employed a dynamic passing attack to record a 7-2 overall record. This marked the best season the Catamount gridders had enjoyed since the 1949 season when they were members in the old North State Conference. Individual stars were numerous, and eight Cats captured post-season honors. John Ruta received All-American mention for the second year, and Jim Williams ran off with a string of honors as he broke every passing record there was at Western this year. Other receiving post-season mention are: Ed Bowles, Roger Cox, Joe Love, Ronnie Scott, Ken Lewis, and Don Powers. Before the football uniforms had been completely packed away, Coach Jim Gudger had already sent his sharp-shooting cage team onto the hardwood. With veterans back to insure experience and a tall, lanky freshman around to capture rebounds, everyone expected great things from the Catamount five. They were not left disappointed as Henry Logan and company burned the nets at a torrid pace to enable the Catamounts to be strong contenders for the championship. Their efforts fell short, however, as a late season loss to Appalachian knocked the Cats out of the Carolinas Conference tournament, and a defeat at the hands of Erskine ended the 1966 campaign for good in the District 26 tournament. Logan and Captain Charlie McConnell took postseason honors as Logan received the Carolinas Conference PLAYER OF THE YEAR Award, unanimous choice on both the All-Conference and All-District teams, Greensboro Daily News All-State team, and greatest of all, NAIA first team All-American. McConnell, the Cullowhee sharp-shooter, was named to the All-Conference team, the All-Tournament team, and the Carolinas Conference All-Academic team. As basketball came to a close, Coach Ron Blackburn was right there waiting to send his Catamount nine on the field. With twelve lettermen returning, this year was predicted as the Catamounts' year to take home the conference flag. The season is twenty-one games old and the Cats are riding high with a 17-4 mark. This is not good enough, however, to hold down first place as it stands now, but there is still a lot of baseball to be played with the conference tournament coming up. Guilford is the present leader with a 10-2 conference slate as opposed to the Catamounts' 13-3 mark. Clutch hitting and balanced pitching have been the keys to success thus far. The Cats are hitting at a .267 clip, with Rob Newton setting the pace at .388. In the pitching department, Roddey Edwards, Glenn Ivie, and Rod Rogers have held down the starting rotation, with Jim Bullins, Tim Newsome, and Garnett Teague handling the relief chores. Rogers and Newsome own perfect marks thus far while Ivie and Bullins have suffered one defeat each. Edwards, the work-horse of the staff, has dropped two. Rounding out the athletic program is the tennis team. Coaching the Catamount netters is Dennis Mc- Kevlin. The squad now owns a 4-5 mark with a match tomorrow with Wofford. Dick Kuszyk continues to lead the netmen, but he is followed in wins by number five man, Bruce Loftin. Rounding out the squad are Herb Bolick, Fred Ryder, John Christenson, Randy Lanier, and Nick Kale. By Lamar Buchanan One of America's favorite summer sports is fishing. It gives a person a chance to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city's business life, and a chance to see nature at its best. The areas in and around Western North Carolina are the only places in the Southeast where one can combine a family vacation and a fishing trip. Western North Carolina has long been known for its scenic mountains, lakes, and waterfalls. Few people realize that this is also a great trout fishing area. Fishing and scenery are all located within a seventy-five mile radius of the Western Carolina College campus. The different varieties of trout to be found in this locality are brown, rainbow, and brook. The native brook trout are also called "speckled" trout. Many states or areas are noted for large fish or a specific species of trout, but Western North Carolina has large fish in all three species noted. These trout can be found in practically any stream, whether by a roadside or in a wilderness area. Whitewater, a wild, rough stream originating in North Carolina and flowing into South Carolina, is a well-known trout stream containing large brown and rainbow trout. Horsepas- ture, a smooth stream, is good fly fishing for both brown and rainbow. Chatuge, a rocky river with brook, brown, and rainbow, is one of the best streams. There as just a few of the more popular streams. Some of the best fishing of all is found in the numerous national forests. A few of these are Standing Indian, Pisgah, and Smoky Mountain. Outdoor Life rated Hazel Creek, in the Smokies, as the best trout stream in the South. Other good producers in the Smokies are Big Creek and Forney Creek. All streams in the national parks are well stocked or contain plenty of native trout. District Manager Bill Roland stated that approximately fifteen thousand fish are stocked in the south district each year. He also stated that, this year, Smoky Mountain National Park opened on April 15, a month earlier than the customary opening date, and will remain open until September 15, 1966. There are plenty of campsites in these parks and the accommodations are good. There is a small fee for camping in all parks except the Smokies. The only license required in the Smokies is a residence or non- residence fishing license. A fishing license and a trout stamp are required in all other parks and open trout streams. Most fishermen have their own private method of catching fish. Some use bait and others use flies. The open trout streams permit either bait or any artificial lure. Most of the parks require the use of artificial lures. One should check with the local game warden or park ranger for these regulations. In addition to the trout streams, there are several trout lakes. These lakes are not polluted with pan fish or non- game-fish. If you like variety, you can fish for trout, large and smallmouth bass, pike, and pan fish, all in the same day. All of this and more can be found in diversified Western North Carolina. A WNC fisherman prepares to try his luck in one of the many mountain streams in this area. Tourist flock to the streams every year to fish the lively waters of the mountain counties. Professional... —Continued from page 9 Angeles Dodgers and the San Francisco Giants by only one- half game. The defending world's champion Los Angeles Dodgers appear to be the team to beat again this season. Sandy Koufax, holding a 3-0 pitching record, is off to another good season. His pitching, along with the help of Claude Osteen (4-1) and Don Drysdale, give the Dodgers all the pitching power they need. The 1966 season is still young, leaving room for many changes in the standings. No home run records are expected to be broken and no pitchers are expected to win 30 games. It's just a normal season again, one which millions of fans will enjoy for almost five months. Sleep in *JS®j ze 99 . . . oil r King Size DELUXE ORDEREST For those who vrart the very best.
