NOBODY CAN TOUCH EVINRUDE'S EXPERIENCE IN FISHING OUTBOARDS. NOT MERCURY. NOT CHRYSLER. NOT HONDA. NOT SUZUKI.

NOT SPIRIT. Go with experience Seventy years ago, Ole Evinrude built his first fishing outboard motor. For today's fisherman Evinrude still builds easy starting engines to help eliminate temperamental hairline tuning. We build in enough displacement to keep power in reserve so the engine runs easy, smooth and quiet -for long engine life. They're designed to run fast or troll slow, all day long.

Clean and Quiet Evinrude engines have no overboard drains. Unburned fuel is recycled back through the motor. The powerhead is sound-sealed and the exhaust leaves the motor sound underwater. Fast, Dependable Starting Evinrude's III electronic ignition (4 hp up) delivers a quick, long-lasting spark for fast, dependable starting. The Lower the Better Compare our popular lowprofile 9.9 and 15 h.p.

Evinrude" up to inches lower than some competitive motors of comparable horsepower. Our low-profile is better for boat stability and casting. EVINRUDE Built for Fishing Extra long, twist-grip steering handle for better control. Preset trolling means you return to your favourite trolling speed everytime you throttle down. And shallow water drive lets you quicktilt the motor to a pre-set weed-shedding position.

All Evinrude outboards are salt-water engineered. Honorary pallbearers will be Jim Stennett, Keith Tutt, Leo Wright, George Grant, Joe Moran and Charles Ford. Active pallbearers will be Henry Gibson, Brian Bakuska, Frank Froese, John Summers, Bill Marshall and Evan Edmondson.

A nominal fee could be charged for a hot-dog snack and what better time to socialize with coaches, parents and boys. At the last meeting there was a discussion as to how a way could be found to reach the parents. Well, there you are a closing banquet perfect for showing the various learning hockey films, have guest speakers, present team trophies for house league winners and so on. I think it is time the association got their collective heads out of the sand and caught up to the times. You only get as much out of something as what you put in.

1 feel new members are needed on the executive, while it is commendable that so many residents have served on more than one position on the executive, they should not have a monopoly it's time for new people and new ideas. I sincerely wish the new executive the best of luck and I hope they will stop, sit back and take a good long look at what the association has done in the past, and see where it is headed in the future. -DID YOU KNOW?
