By Pete Czura The recent National Sport- ng Goods Assn. show in Chicago brought out a raft of new- gadgets for the recrca- tion-minded folks. For campers a newr stove smaller than a cigar box, provides aeflame like a blow torch, burns 90 minutes on 3 oz. of any fuel, and folds into a neat rattle- proof package. For anglers a new fish scaler with over 140 cutting edges that flings scales away from you at a fast clip About the size of cigar, it will find a welcome home in many tackle boxes.

Compact two-way radios for use afield by campers, hikers, fishermen and hunters made their appearance. Powered by transistors, they can keep outdoorsmen in touch with each other up to 3 miles. On the local scene, coyote hunters have been using these two-way radios with great success. Remember that ickv odor you get when you clean fish? Well, a new skin cleanser packed in a plastic bottle to remove obnoxious smells. Used like soap, you rinse your hands and presto, no stink.

Boomerangs are making a comeback. Used to develop accuracy, some chaps can knock off a running rabbit or flying pheasant with this curved stick. For hunters, caps with ear flaps having a special perfor- I ated metal opening at ear which allow you to hear i easily. For gun nuts, a slick concoction which, with one dab on a rag restores worn metal parts on a gun to almost brand new appearance. There was a passel of wheel rig manufacturers displaying their motor-driven steeds.

These, they claim could haul a sportsman into areas where mules fear to tread.

The Bandelet scholarship fund was established in 1957 by Lineoinite Silverman to assist a Marshall athlete demonstrating scholastic ability. Letters Request fnfo According to the Game Commission, upwards of from 250-350 letters are currently being received every day from all corners of the globe. These letters indicate that people are interested in Nebraska and often plan their vacations from the information received. Even newlyweds from Florida plan to spend their honeymoon in Nebraska. The couple requested a list of the motels and guides to various color spots in the state.

One woman from New York City would like to spend part of her vacation this year visiting a farm. She requested a schedule of rates. Requests come from a 11 parts of the world including one from a young man in Japan. Not only does he read the literature, but is interested in locating the points on a map. The young man is particularly interested in more information from an old west writer, in his opinion Nebraska is the place where the Old West is relived.

A visitor to the United States from Holland, now in Wisconsin on a Fulbright scholarship, plans to do some camping in Nebraska before he goes home to resume his studies at the University of Amsterdam. The Dutch youth has done much camping in the French Pyrenees. Other requests have come from California for a matchbook cover for a U.S. coffee table; from Bombay, India, for literature for visits to Nebraska; from Blunt, S.D., for information classroom work; and from Holland for information because people of that country have moved here and their friends want to know what like. Even the American Consulate General in Rhodesia and Nyasaland in Africa wrote asking for economic and commercial information and pictures on Nebraska.

Much favorable comment was received by the Consulate General on his Nebraska display. Just about as many thank yous flood into the office after the literature has reached its destination. From England, New Jersey, Maine, Kentucky and West Virginia come letters from school children saying, literature sure helped my report. Thank you so much Volleyball Tourney MONDAY Operation rBffiwiwiUfiiiwHuiinwmwmitmimH Outdoors uauutuniii'HiitmmmmmutMiuii by Pete Czura It seems like our dogs are getting a run for their money from foreign dogs invading U.S.A. Despite the fact that there are over 24 million dogs in this country, foreign dogs are slowly inching their way into prominence.

Here is a smattering of the breeds coming into this dog heaven. Maltese: from Greece and Rome. About 200 in U.S. Cost about $100 to $350. Dutch Pug: Originally from China, came here via England.

Once the favorite pet of Dutch and English nobility. About 2500 in U.S. Cost $100 to $300. Brussels Griffon: From Belgium. Weighing 7 to 11 pounds, it is called delightful little street Last count showed 125 here.

No beauty but have lively personality, $200 Saluki: From Arabia. Also called the Dog of Reputed to be oldest existing breed domesticated by man. Once used to hunt gazelles, they can run up to 50 m.p.h., and hurdle 8-foot obstacles. Cost $500 and up. Lhasa Apso: From Tibet.

Was known in 1583 as a prized gift from Dalai Lama to imperial families during Manchu dynasty. About 70 here. Cost about $450. Chihuahua: Mentioned by Columbus (who told the King of Spain he found one in Cuba) is the most popular of odd foreign varieties now found here. They are said to have an ancestry dating to time of Montezuma, Last count over 30,000 here.

Cost $50 to 200 Keeshonds: From Holland. First came to U.S. in late (lot their name from Dutch patriot Kecs de Gyse- iear. Wolf-gray in color, they are mild-mannered. Considered by Dutch as companion No estimate of how many here.

Cost, $100 to $200. Chinese Crested: Rare. Small, greyhound-like, breed originated in China and Tibet, but is no longer found there. But for America it might well die out. Last known count in this country.

Other foreign importations making inroads into our dog world: Italian greyhounds; Japanese spaniels; Scottish deerhounds; Siberian huskies; Pulik; Kuvaszak; weiler; Affenpinscher; and Basenji. The Puliks are central European sheepdogs and there are about 120 in this country. Although these dogs will not give our dogs a battle for supremacy in our country, they are nevertheless trickling in. But if you know I do usually adopt us and we have nothing to say or do about it. So if your dog gives you that hang-dog look today, maybe it's because he is worried about losing the top spot in your affections.

If he misbehaves, let him read this column today. Bet toe the mark when he sees these foreign breeds coming in. Unheralded Iowan Toj IS In PGA Seniors Golf Trout Fishing Is Good Two color movies depicting tourist and wildlife attractions available in Nebraska are being prepared by the state of Nebraska as part of the program to attract outside travelers and acquaint Nebraskans with their state. Since adequate state funds are not available for tourist promotion, both movies are being done with the aid of outside subscriptions from the public. One movie is being prepared by the office with a 10.000 grant from Ak-Sar-Ben to the state.

It will be coordinated by John Kelley, administrative assistant to the Governor representing the Committee on State Promotion. The other movie is being prepared by the State Game Commission from films on hand if they can raise by public subscription 00 The two films are being up to pounds have been produced independently of caught on Nine Mile and Red Willowr Creeks. Conservation officer Joe Ulrich, Bridgeport, checked two Fishing tackle makers were out in force, too. All kinds of new spinning, bait and fly casting reels showed up, along with rods, lines, lures, nets and other fishing equipment. One net folded into a neat pouch and when you yanked it out, like a six-shooter, it flips out.

opens and is ready to land your fish. One entire section was set aside for gun makers. Pint sized 22 to super-magnum rifles capable of downing an elephant in one shot were shown. Shotguns of single, double- barrels; pumps, autoloaders, a it i handloaders, scopes, binoculars with a zoom gizmo, and handguns attracted large throngs. Archers had a ball looking over new bows, arrows, quivers, targets, hunting points, bow fishing rigs, arm guards and sights.

Flashlights that never need batteries; plastic decoy ducks, geese, owls, crows; electronic game callers; medicine to give immediate relief from stings of poisonous insects; scuba outfits for those who like to prowd underwater; gloves of all kinds and colors; tents for individuals or large family sizes, all vied for attention. Fishermen are really enjoying the unseasonably warm weather, the Game Commission reports. Good catches of trout come from nearly every stream in the Panhandle area with bass, bluegill, crappie, and perch also getting a good play. Dick another Furley, District I supervisor at Alliance, savs that trout each other. Kelley stated, film is designed basically for Nebraskans to appreciate Kelley believes this film will overcome widespread lack of appreciation of Nebraska by natives and those outside of Nebraska.

14-year-olds, Paul York and Larry Calvert, both of Bayard, with York having a and 3-pound rainbow and Calvert having two and another pounds. Ted Tofoya of Bayard caught a This movie will include pair of rainbows weighing such topics as cattle industry, and 4Va pounds.

Kelley said, not sure how we can do it, but you can bet we will produce a quality He hopes that the film would be completed by middle of summer and be ready for fall distribution.

The Game Commission is in the process of trying to com- ful baits with worms on spin ners next. Lake Minatare has been producing good catches of perch up to 9 inches. Four anglers caught 65 and another quartet brought in 53. Some excellent catches of bass, crappie, bluegill, and perch have been coming from Smith Lake.
