Record Fish Is Already Caught Even though the season is far from b< ing in full swing, this is the time of year when recordbreaking fish are caught, it is pointd out by the Indiana Deparlim nt of Natural Resources. Moreover. !!ie possibilities ot catching some record-breakers will probably be greater in 1968 than in recent years. New categories were created last year in the official "Indiana Fish of the Year” listings. These now include .stielhead trout, blue catfish and coho salmon. Entries were received in 1967 for the first two but a.s yet no Indiana Coho record has been established. The record list will be further expanded this jear with addition of the Chinook i king i salmon and lake trout. Entries will be accepted immediately for these new categories by the Division of Fish and Game of the Department of Natural Resources. 605 State Office Building. Indianapelis, Indiana 46204. "Fish of the Year" citations are given on an annual basis to the largest entry of t ach species taken during the calendar year from Indiana waters. The only exception is that the muskdlun ;e has recently been placed on the protected list. Entry blanks are available from most sporting go<ds outlets or from the Division of Fish and Game. Look For Home Improvement Swindlers Each spring home improvement swindlers, appealing to homeowners' natural desire for a bargain, offer such improvements as siding, r<x>f repair and guttering. Don't become one of this year’s swindling statistics. When a salesman offers home repairs and improvments at a bargain price, be wary. A homeowner contracted for blacktopping for his driveway, only to find that, after the first rain, the

"blacktopping” ran off and so had the workman. Elkin M. Minter, Extension home manngt no nt specialist at Purdue I’niversity, suggests that one of the best ways to avoid being victimized by a swindler is to know your contractor. Deal with a local firm whose imputation you know and respect. And. shop ’ around to find out what various firms charge for a similar job. If you are dealing with an unfamiliar company, ask for references. Check with the Better Business Bureau if the sah man ' seems in a hurry chances are ' he doesn't want to be investigated. If you aren't sure of the loca--1 tion of your nearest Better Business Bureau office, call your county Extension office and ask. SAFETY OFFICIALS NEED PARENTS’ HELP “It is time for parents to d>» j safety authorities a favor and t help them save their children's , lives,” says Albert E. Huber. Executive Director of the Indiana t Traffic Safety Council. "It may seem odd to make this request,” , Huber stated "but the truth of the matter is that to many parents have relagated responsibility for their childrt n's safety to the , schools. Parents should sit their children down and explain the reasons for our various traffic laws and traffic devices so the inquizi- , tive young minds find out the WHY’ of traffc safety. Then, just because kids are kids, they need regular reminders to reinforce this instruction. “The advantages of early, proper traffic training in the home are two-fold, ’’ he continued. “One is the immediate safety for the child. The second is the lasting benefits of proper training. You can bet that the kid stet ring his car with one finger rode his bike the samp way.” Huber remarked. "It's a short period between handlerbars and .steering wheels," he concluded, “and a parent's peace of mind later may depend on proper traffic safety discipline ‘ today.” i BRASS RAIL Small minds that run in the • same channel usually get stranded on the same bar.
