Columns When Kentucky Kingdom opened I was skeptical; and when it closed I was not surprised. Being a roller coaster addict, I travel to Kings Island a lot I could not believe that Kentucky Kingdom actually intended to draw a crowd from Kings Island.

Apparently I was not the only one, in light of its short period of operation. Kentucky Kingdom is a good idea, and Louisville needs it, but it has had its problems. Kings Island has an abundance of rides for all ages. For example, Kings Island has five roller coasters compared to Kentucky Kingdom's one and has two log flumes to Kentucky Kingdom's one. What few rides Kentucky Kingdom did have seemed to be oriented to younger children.

In fact, most of the park seemed to be oriented to children. But what about the parents who take them there? What do they ride or do while waiting for their kids? Kentucky Kingdom needs to expand at the Kentucky State Fairgrounds or move where it can. It also, needs to cater to all ages. It will take a few years before it reaches the size of Kings Island.

That is what hunting and fishing is all about managing, not cruelty. Hunters should be praised for what they have done, not criticized. Kentucky's sportsmen and management have made the state what it is today. No thanks to people who complain about it If you don't like it, move out of the state. James C.

Critic of hunting somewhat confused In response to Casi Bolin's Your View column in the Feb. 7 edition of Neighborhoods, I would like to make this comment I think she is somewhat confused and misinformed.

It is apparent that she associates sport hunting with cruelty, which she related to killing. Killing happens in beef and pork slaughterhouses; killing is what termite and pest control firms accomplish; killing is the end result of mouse and rat traps; killing is what humans do to each other daily. Hunting is defined as the pursuing of game, the chase. A. J.

Vogelsbert Fisherville Hunters help pay manage wildlife There is too much talk about how hunting is cruel. Very few people understand what hunters and fishermen do for the state of Kentucky. I am a hunter and a fisherman; I enjoy my sport In Kentucky my money for a license paid for bringing back wildlife. 'remember my dad telling me tha't, when he was a little boy, there were no whitetail deer in Kentucky. Now there are about 400,000 deer and about 20,000 turkeys in Kentucky.

If it weren't for Kentucky's sportsmen and the state Division of Fish and Wildlife, you would never see these animals in Kentucky. Most people do not know that there are no tax dollars bringing these animals back to Kentucky. I hunt deer, rabbits and quail. I enjoy eating all of these animals. These meats are very low in cholesterol and fat Next time you eat beef, pork or poultry, ask yourself, "How were these animals raised and killed?" They have been shot with so much chemicals it would choke you.

People who think hunting 4s cruel should take a trip to a slaughterhouse. I Jiave been asked by farmers to hunt or fish on their land because the "deer eat their crops up. They say4hey cannot keep a garden or fruii trees. Several people ask me to fish'their lakes and ponds because of I have seen ponds; floating with dead fish, and 7j. ir t7 yjf A T- AV -k' i A WITH COUPON A Complete Chopped Steak Dinner Offer!
