Shraluka’s Slants By Bob Shrcfluka While mentioning a few of the returning football lettermen recently, we unintentionally omitted a pair of names — Susdorf and Grote. No, they aren’t uniformed members of the team (they’re a bit over the IHSAA age limit), but they are two very important mainstays in not only football but other North Adams sporting events. Bill Susdorf and Don Grote are the bus drivers that transport Decatur’s football, basketball and wrestling teams for out-of-town contests, and one who doesn’t believe they are “one of the boys” should ask some of the young athletes. We saw Bill the other day and asked him if he was ready to go this fall, and he gave the same, exhubertant “sure am” that Max Elliott gave us recently. The young men on the teams began to regard Bill and Don as teammates last year, and when these two are driving the team (usually the one that isn’t driving is making the trip anyway), Decatur is assured of having a cheering section. More important, however, is the conscientious attitude each gives to his responsibility-laden task, as does any North Adams driver. When son leaves for the ball game at Angola, or Kendallville, or Columbia City, or some other town, mom and pop can rest assured that he is in good hands with Bill or Don at the wheel of the team bus. .j . • Good to see Don Black get promoted at Parkway high, the nearby Willshire -- Rockford consolidation. He will head Parkway’s baseball fortunes, assist with the varsity basketball and coach freshman football. We met Don a couple of years ago when Decatur and Parkway were playing a junior high football game, and he seems to be very well liked in the Willshire and Rockford areas. He attended D.H.S. until his junior year when the family moved to Willshire and he finished high Sflrool there. Many local fans will remember -him when he pitched for the Decatur baseball nine while attending school here. The heat is bothering everyone these days, but don’t feel atone. The Mercury Outboard company tells us that about this time of the year, fish are bothered by soaring temperatures just as much as man, and they’re equally inclined to duck into coolest sanctuary available. Since heat curbs both movements and appetites of fish, the basic rule for fishing in the summer sun is: Forget It! Instead, fish during the cool of the day ... or night. Preferably the latter. The best time to work shallow bays is just at the crack of daybreak, when the water has reached its lowest temperature. The few hours preceded sun-up, then, are generally the most productive for top — and shallow — water action. For the most part, these fish will be in the small to medium size range — the fast-moving foragers which scramble for the easy pickin s that exist in the warm shoals. - jp or the lunkers, the angler is advised to remain out in the deepest parts of the lake. Even though temperatures remain fairly constant at considerable distance beneath the surface, big fish have a definite tendency toward nocturnal dining. So fish at night, and let the big ones prove this theory themselves.

Johnny U Inks Pact; Cards Decide Sunday

' By Dotted Frew Internatienal Baltimore Colts head Coach Don Shula breathed a sigh of relief as hi* ace quarterback, Johnny Unitas, signed his contract for the 1964 season Thursday. "Hie signing of Unitas, one of the NFL’s premier passers, for his ninth season with the Colts, reduced to seven the number of players still to be signed. The former All - Pro signal caller proved a little while after signing that his arm was in as good condition for throwing a football as it was for signing a contract when he participated in contact drills. Unitas’ receivers. Ray Berry, Jimmy Orr, Willie Richardson, John Mackey and R. C. Owens showed that they were also in good form.

LOUIS (UPI) — The St Louis football Cardinals are expected to be singing “Home, Sweet Home” with a complete set of lyrics before next week. St. Louis football fans hope the only city mentioned in the words of the song will be St. Louis. The Cardinals have been the subject of a tub-of-war between St. Louis and Atlanta, and coowner Bill Bidwill said Thursday that a decision could come before Sunday. Bidwill met with officials of the new St. Louis downtown sports stadium Thursday for four hours. Although no decision was announced, the St. Louis contingent of businessmen and civic officials determined to keep the team in St. Louis, appeared optimistic after the meeting. James P. Hickok, spokesman for the stadium group described the meeting with Bidwill as “friendly.” He said Bid will felt the decision would be made soon. “And we hope it’s a happy one for St. Louis,” Hickok said.

Charles (Stormy) Bidwill, remained in Lake Forest, 111., where the Cardinal players have started two-a-day workouts in preparation for the 1964 season. The Bidwills had described the Atlanta inducements as “attractive,” and since early May, the two brothers have declined to come to a final decision between the two cities.
