10 Lincoln Evening Journal Nebraska State Journal Tuesday, Dec. 22, 1970 P.M. Club Have Trailsmoke Hunting, Fishing Is Good By Bob Munger. Journal Outdoor Editor Nichols and Wilcox play more' than 20 tournaments a year. "I can pretty well pick my spots, just so long as there isn't something going on at home that they'll need me for," the big, hard-hitting Nichols said.

Wilcox is in much the same situation about getting away and competing on the tour. "I need to be around a lot during the summer," he said. "Then in the winter you feel like you ought to be at home dwng the bookwork, but you also hate to miss the opportunity to play the tour." Doubling as a dub player and a touring pro has both advantages and disadvantages, he said. "You don't get to practice as much as-you'd like when you're home," he said. "But you've also got the security of.

that job at home That helps take some of the pressure off." New York CT) The club pro is a vanishing breed on the grinding professional golf tour. The heightened level of competition, the burgeoning parses that lure the strong young touring pros to the circuit and the press of duties at home kept the club pro generally out of the limelight and the big moiwy on the tour and confine him to the pro shop and cart shed at home. But three club pros, Eobby Nichols, Paul Harney and Terry Wilcox, fought the new breed, the pressure, the disadvantage of less than full time play, and the duties at home to make 1970 one of their better years. All are more or less regulars on the tour, but all hold active, working head professional club jobs Nichols in Akron, Ohio, Harney in Sutton, and Wilcox in Bronxville, N.Y. All give lessons, work on books, keep an eye on the pro shop and the carts.

And yet all found time away from home to rank as factors, in regular tour events in 1970. Nichols, 34, a former PGA champion, broke a four-year victory famine when he won the richest of them all, pulling down a $60,000 check for first place in the Dow-' Jones Open. His $103,000 in winnings represented best year er. Harney, 41, won over $40,000 and made a run at the title in $100,000 Avco Classic on his home course. Wilcox, 32, had a career best with money winnings of more then $36,000 and finished second in the rich Philadelphia Classic.

Of the three, Harney plans the fewest tournaments. A one-time tour regular, he now restricts his play to the winter swing in California and Florida, plus a few Eastern appearances. "I just don't have that much time away from the job," the personable, grey-haired veteran said. Doane Edged President Nixon has signed into law the Agricultural Act of 1970, and sportsmen may. find they have had an unasked for but highly significant Christmas present thrown under their trees.

The new act establishes a set-aside program under which wheat farmers, to be eligible for federal payments, must divert from the production of wheat and other crops a set amount of acreage as determined by the Secretary of Agriculture, Clifford Hardin. And these diverted acres may be devoted to wildlife food plots or wildlife habitat if the farmer agrees to permit access to the general public for hunting, trapping, fishing and hiking. How does that snap your garter? Similar programs are included for feed grain and cotton farmers. The acreage set aside in 1971 could be up to 13.3 million acres, and the 1972-73 acreages could not exceed 15 million each year. Cheaper Skiiug Costs A young graduate engineer and a skier who has' forgotten his first sitz-mark long ago, Kim Chaffee, has dreamed up an organization of college students who will ski at special rates this season.

Chaffee, the older brother of Olympic skiers Suzy and Rick, says: "As an undergraduate at Harvard and later as a. graduate student at Berkeley, I saw how disheartened college students were over the high cost of skiing. So last year I set out to do something about it." The "something" that he came up with is the Student Ski Association, an organization of college students who are eligible for half price rates at many ski slopes throughout the nation, among them Aspen, Winter Park and Glenwood Springs in Colorado. Chaffee now has over 100 ski areas participating in the SSA program, and he says he is signing more every week. Only undergraduate, graduate and professional school students are eligible, and in order to qualify each Student Card holder must present his school or student ID card along with his Ski Card for the special rate.

Chaffee's idea is to get more college students Interested in hitting the slopes, and cheaper rates should certainly go a long way toward igniting the fires of that enthusiasm. Better 'Mousetrap' Found? 'Tis said the world will beat a path to your door if you invent a better mousetrap, and this may be true, but it seems that more and more "mousetraps" are coming out every year. Latest in this "better" line, and perhaps a real winner, Is a little stick of something that looks and feels like plastic. It is about four inches long and has a patch of abrasive at one i end. Put out by Burke Flexo-Products in Michigan, it is a miracle patch, or sot proclaimed.

According to the dope sheet, a torn hip wader (or anything else) can be repaired in seconds. You simply roughen the torn spot with the abrasive end, heat the other end of the stick with a match or a lighter, dab it on and presto It's fixed. But the real kicker is the final one. The patch is flexible. Bends and gives right along with the repaired area.

Just might be a winner! i' Husker Attendance Fourth Nationally New York Rose Bowl-bound Ohio State, which broke its own attendance record with a five-game home average of 86,490, led the nation's college football teams in a record-breaking season for spectators. Overall 29,465,604 persons attended games during the season for a record increase of 1,839,444 or 6.6 per cent over the 1969 high, according to National Collegiate Sports Services statistics released Monday. A record 14 teams averaged more than 60,000 fans at home, led by the Buckeyes whose average was up 255 from their previous top, to make them second only to Michigan's all-time high of 93,894 in 1949. Big Ten teams took five of the top 10 spots with Michigan No. 2 at 79,361, Purdue third with Michigan State sixth at 64,509 and Wisconsin seventh with 62,889.

Others were Nebraska 67,213, fourth, Texas, 65,503, fifth, Stanford, 62,662, eighth, Louisiana State, 62,403, ninth and Southern Cal, 61,429, tenth. Other teams averaging more than 60,000 fans per game were Notre Dame, Auburn, Alabama and Oklahoma. Michigan took single game attendance honors for the fourth time in five seasons with 103,580 fans for the Michigan-Michigan State clash Oct. 17. The count was just eight shy of the largest college crowd at the Michigan-Ohio State game last year during 23 seasons of record keeping.

The statistical service noted that the big overall increase was caused partly by the fact that an 11th game was added to some teams' schedule. The nation's 617 four-year colleges plaved 75 more games this season than 615 colleges played in 1969. i UPI TELEPHOTO Opposing Rose Bowl coaches Woody Hayes (center) of Ohio State and Stanford's John Ralston (right) chat with Mickey Mouse in a visit to Disneyland. So Indians, Buckeyes Tour Disneyland Drills Rain Puts Damp Hunters and fishermen throughout Nebraska spent a busy weekend, according to reports from Game and Parks Commission personnel in the Ice fishermen continue to report good fishing in several lakes in the Sand Hills and Panhandle regions of Nebraska, while pheasant hunters have witnessed good to excellent success recently.

Walleye up to 8'j pounds and averaging 4Vi pounds ate hitting minnows, with best success in the afternoons on the north side of the lake east of the Inlet. Perch, too, are active at Whitney, averaging 10 inches in length and hitting minnows.

And, although toparently quite rare, anglers are also catching an occasional catfish up to 5 pounds on minnows through the ice at Whitney. Duck hunters are scoring well along the North Platte River between Mitchell and the Wyoming border. Jump shooting has also been productive on Sheep and Box Butte Creeks. NORTHEAST Pheasant hunting conditions are near Ideal. However, ringneck hunters have been relatively few and far between.

Pheasants are now bunched In large groups and are utilizing heavy weed patches and shelterbelts. Coyote hunters have showed up on the outdoor scene and rabbit hunters too, were In the field this past weekend. Duck hunters closed the season on a fairly successful note with good shontlno on the Missouri River below Gavins Point Dam and in Boone County on Beaver Creek and Wheeler County along the Cedar River. Boone and Wheeler counties have also produced some good quail shooting recently. Fishing has tapered oft below Gavins Point Dam, basically on account of cold weather.

However, an occasional pad. dlefish is still being taken. SOUTHEAST Hunters have averaged a pheasant per gun the past few days. Ringnecks are bunching up and best success has been registered in heavy weed patches and dense shelterbelts. Webster County has provided good pheasant hunting action along with quail shooting.

Ice fishermen are warned that although lakes are sturdy In the northern portion of the state, the Ice cover In the southeast region Is not yet considered safe. SOUTHWEST Chase, Hayes, Dundy, and Hitchcock counties are providing the best shooting action on ringnecks. Phelps, Harlan, and Franklin counties are best bets for quail.

"I don't think they have seen as pure a passer as Plunkett since Mike Phipps last year," said Ralston. A two-time performer in the Rose Bowl while at California, Ralston seemed confident the pass-oriented Indians can make a game of it.

"We feel we can control the ball with a passing game just er on as effectively as they can on the ground," he said. Both sides will work hard for the next three days, take Christmas off and then return for heavy practice Saturday. Neither team plans a scrimmage, however. Ohio State's three injured players, wingback Larry Zelina, offensive guard Dick Kuhn and flanker Jimmie Lee Harris were cleared for prac- es but he didn't tell her that. She stabbed him in the left side about halfway between the navel and the side.

"He refused to file charges, saying it was his fault," Fortenberry said. The surgeon who operated on Wynn said the wound will not affect his baseball "Barring unforeseen complications, he should be discharged in about a week," the doctor said. "It was, just routine surgery. No vital organs were punctured. TABLE TENNIS TABLE 5' 9' Table With Steel Frame and Legs.

"That's no fun at all," Jim Plunkett said of the rain that again plagued Stanford and Ohio State Monday in their Rose Bowl football drills. Plunkett, the Heisman Trophy winner, lives by the pass and rain is a mortal enemy. The wet stuff cut short Stanford's first practice here for a Jan.

1 meeting with Ohco State. More rain was forecast Tuesday. The Buckeyes didn't even try a Monday workout. Ohio State spent two of its first four West Coast practices indoors because of rain. Stanford coach John Ralston was talking like he would take his Indians inside, too.

"We've got to search for a place indoors," he said before the Indians joined the Buckeyes Monday for a tour of Disneyland. "The weather is lousy. There was water an inch deep on the practice field. You could get no footing at all," Ralston said of Monday's short drill at Long Beach State. Ohio State boss Woody Hayes and Ralston lamented mat they were behind schedule in work for the Rose Bowl because of the rain.

Ralston, whose' Pacific-8 champions are 11-point underdogs against the Big Ten rulers, assessed Stanford's opposition upon the Indians' arrival here. "They can keep the football all day. That scares you to death," Ralston said. "And their defense is very complete.
