slightly smaller than his first catch they too were ivied by many around the resort area the nine pounder as hauled in on a three pound line and small minnows were ed for bait the fish was caught just off the north shore at dar beach lockkv at 40 degrees below zero many of us have played hockey on a frozen pond in the iddle of an open pasture field when the temperature hovered ound the zero mark

play on a split second play official is forced to make a decision one which probably only fhlgh speed camera could truthfully decide whether the call right or wrong and yet what happens someone jumps iwn his neck an umpire is only a human being and not a chine in the majority of cases he makes the calls as he s them if he is prejudiced one way or another he should er accept the position in one
