'RICH' PELLETIER Here's A Fisherman Who Enjoys His Job MONTREAL (CP) -- Every year, from early May to late Jetober, Richmond Pelle- fier roams Quebec looing for every fishing hole he can find f wo test his luck. What's more, he gets paid for living this sports fisherman's dream. : Pelletier, a healthy, bronzed $5, is director of a unique fish- ing club, organized, sponsored and financed by a brewery, Mol- son's. The club, about to celebrate its 10th anniversary, is his own idea, and stems from a life-long eoncern with sports fishing and % conservation. ' Pelletier's six - months para- dise enables him to obtain on- F the-spot information about Que- bec's sports fishing waters -- where the fish bite best, what accommodations are available, @ what are the best roads to take, and where are the best camp- sites, the best guides and out- fitters. The information goes into an annual booklet, Pelletier with exciting fodder for the inumerable talks he gives to fish-and-game clubs, and anyone else who will listen to him. The data also feeds the club's fact-crammed information booth located at his Montreal office. Pelletier figures he spends about three full days of his week wetting a line, and trav- els more than 35,000 miles a year, from James Bay to the Labrador border in the north. "T fish, and I inquire, and I take notes, and I talk, and talk, and talk. I read every book about fishing that I can lay my hands on, and I try to educate people about the spirit of sports fishing." His club works closely with some 150 fish-and-game associa- tions--many of which he organ- ized himself--which represent nearly all of Quebec's estimated 600,000 anglers. and provides § RICHMOND PELLETIER When federal i cently launched a massive lak trucks and other equipment. trout to muskie. HAS FILM LIBRARY fed biologists re- restocking program for walleye, the club sent them a fleet of The club reels out $12,000 a year in cash and medals for its fishing derby, April 1 to Oct. 31, to the angler reporting the big- gest catch ("not the most fish because we are conservation- ists') in a 14-fish category from Another $2,200 a year in cash goes for prizes in a conserva- tion contest, to the association that does most to improve pub- lic fishing waters in its terri- tory. The big fishing derby drew 1,500 entries when it was first staged 10 years ago and at- tracted 3,500 last year. The club maintains a film li- brary, distributes all kinds . of pooklets--last year 25,000 on the kinds of fish found in Quebec waters -- and does printing (membership cards, posters) for the various associations free of charge. "Sure there is a commercial interest in this for us, but our whole, and main effort, is one of public service, and our pro- gram proves this," he says. The company supplies the funds, but Montreal-born Pelle- tier supplies the drive. Married, with a teen - age daughter, Pelletier began fish- ing at the age of 10, off a St. | Lawrence River wharf for pike. Out of high school, he became an accountant, then got into sel- ling, and finally settled into a niche when he joined the brew- ery's public relations depart- ment 15 years ago. CITED BY POPE He is director of the Quebec Forestry Association and presi- dent of the Quebec section of the Outdoor Writers of Canada, wwriting regular articles in French - language periodicals and translating English reports of national meetings for Que- bec's French members. A citation from the late Pope Pius XII for extraordinary work in helping Roman Catholic char- ities hangs in his office next to a copper figure of a fierce-look- ing pike. "Everybody kids me about how I get paid for fishing," Pel- letier says with a smile. 'I thought I had the best job pos- sible, until] I met a guy a few years ago who went all over the world testing fishing lures. "Now that is an even better job than mine. I only travel in Quebec." e Midget Wrestler Acquitted By Jury PETERBOROUGH (CP) Professional midget wrestler; Eric Tobey, 34, was acquitted by a 12-man jury Thursday on' a charge of wounding with in- tent. He is alleged to have hidden in a room adjoining his wife's bedroom and, armed with: a flash camera and rifle, shot a man who had crawled into bed with his wife. The jury also dismissed a charge of discharging a fire- arm. Known to wrestling fans as Roger Littlebrook, the four-foot- tall Tobey told court how he hid in a pantry n the night of Aug. 8 in an attempt to trap his wife after hearing rumors that she was being unfaithful. Victim of the shooting was Samuel MacDonald, 56.

'STARTS SUNDAY Oshawa Hawks In New Basketball Play in the newly revamped Toronto Senior Basketball League will open up this Sun- day night in the Queen City. This was confirmed yesterday, by League officials in Toronto, 'who announced that the sched- ale will open with YMHA Blues and Toronto Dow Kings oppos- ing each other at 7.30 p.m., in the first game of a double-head- er at the YMHA gym, on the corner of Bloor and Spadina streets.

And other pools are starting up on the time the winning point or points are scored in Cana- dian professional football con- tests. These fellows can dream up all sorts of betting gimmciks. The latest, and this is abso- lutely new, concerns the Grey Cup final at Vancouver next Sa- turday. It may horrify the chaps who run the Canadian Football League, but there are punters in Toronto who say that the scoreboard clock at Empire Stadiur will never get down to zero-zero on Nov. 30 and the man at the sidelines won't drop the flag to signify the end of the East-West final. The bet is even money. STEALING MONEY Fantastic? Incredible?

"Those nuts in Vancouver must be able to read and I'm sure by now they know that the cops are going to take movies of crowd scenes.
