Shawcrest Cape Over Middle In Hockey

Does It

This past week was another time of recordbreaking performances by United States athletes, and even though time will erase a lot of statistics, I believe it will be a long while before people forget Eric Heiden's five gold medals, and the startling performance of the United States Hockey Team, as they thumped the sup posedly superior Russian ska(ers. I know that I'm an old softie whenever “Old Glory” comes into view but I was touched in a way ^ that is hard to describe when our flat was hoisted above the others during the gold medal ceremony, and all the hockey team crowded together on that narrow victors podium. THE 1 LOBSTER HOUSE FISH | MARKET S

SEAFOOD Fresh From Our Boats Daily Fisherman’s Wharf Cape May, N.J. 884-3064 FISH MARKET AND TAKE OUT SEAFOOD SHOP

ITS TIME now to get off the Olympic theme, and look forward to the angling scene. That tip I got from Rob Hertzog on the mackerel up on Bamegat ridge was a good one, and one of the commercial boats that went up there loaded up with those Bostons, but the market disappeared before they got to dock 1 hope it won't be too long before I'll be saying they're off Cape May LARRY NEWBOLD. of the Extension service, announced last Wednesday at the Cape May County* chamber of commerce meeting that th£ experimental station, maintained by Rutgers University, near Peirces point is celebrating its 100 anniversary in 1980. LARRY ALSO wanted one and all to know that Gypsy moth spraying is not being cut out in our area because of pesticides, but because of lack of funds. Only time will tell whether this is a wise decision, but I'm still convinced that Rachael Carson was right in her book "Silent Spring,” and maybe we’ve put off this happening with this move. I can only applaud and congratulate Peggie Bieberbach, of the Lower Township Committee as she said, “I will never vote one penny to go for spraying." That's the kind of attitude we’ve needed fora longtime. ' YOU MAY hea* rumors of planned gas rationing, and bans on Sunday recreational boating for this summer, and you may come to believe that it may happen this ye$r, but I’m told these steps are only one of President Carter’s recommendations to the D.O.T. (energy committee), and that they could only be accomplished by Congressional action that would take longer than a year to complete. I hope my information is correct, because this could really deal us a low blow during our vacation season In fact, instead of taking a chance on my accuracy why don’t you sit

down right now, and write a letter to your congressman, and let him know how opposed you are to these ideas. It may forestall a future plan from forming, and it could make a lasting impression on him in this election year. I’VE HEARD of manynew rules that are being enforced on the waterways this year, including the discharge of wastes from boats into the water, and this item is supposed to be one of the laws that will be enforced in 1980 within the three-mile limit. It’s too bad they don't enforce the same law on communities that have outfall lines in these same areas. A new regulation was brought to my attention today by Captain Hiram Thompson, who is relief skipper for Capt. A. Delinski on the "Bug Jim II". Capt. Hi was telling me that all life jackets this year must have strips of flourescent cloth on them to make them visible at night, and that each life jacket must be equipped with a whistle, and a self contained flashlight be prepared to equip your life saving gear with these articles. I ALSO ran across another law which I had no knowledge of. Jim Demyan, of Del Haven, told me that he was anchored inside the punk grounds last July when a big partyboat from Delaware, drifted down on him and hit his boat several times causing over a $1,000 worth of damage. At the Coast Guard inquiry on this mishap they said that Jim was in the wrong because he did not have a ball on his anchor line displaying that he was laying at anchor. In all the years I’ve drum fished in the Bay I’ve never heard of this law. If anyone knows more about this type of ruling, I’d sure ap-_ preciate hearing from them...

In Tennis COl^RT HOUSE - Mike Mullen. Shawcrest's Town Team Tennis captain, must have been taking full advantage of the warm weather during his twoweek Florida vacation because' he came cut smoking Tuesday night ripping Phil Kelly 8 0 and leading his squad to a comfortable 35-1:1 victory over winless First Eastern in Town Team action at the Jersey Cape Racquet Club. The match was actually closer than the score indicated hut two defaults cost First Eastern early and sealed their fate, from the outset. First Eastern lost eight games in the women's doubles where Barbara Roff and Carol Yarborough downed Shawcrest's team of Anja Smith and Diane Shaw 8-1 but because Yarborough had already participated earlier in women's singles play, she was forced to default the doubles match. The other default which hampved First Eastern's chances occured in .the mixed doubles event where Shawcrest's Bob Ansell and Barbara Kelly took an 8-0 "giveaway." In men's doubles action shawcrest’s team of Roy Smith and Rich Moulder survived a hard fought 8-5 victory over First Eastern's Terry Shields and Mike Ternowski. First Eastern’s only win came in the women's singles division where Carol Yarborough scored an impressive 8-3 win over Mary Jane Soens. ‘Stumblers’ All Over Court CAPE MAY - The Stumblers II surprisingly tripped the C-View Inn twice for a narrow. 15-13, 14-16. 15-13 win in recent Men's Volleyball action The serving of Joe Halasz, the digging of Tom Roth and Rick Swain and Dave Piacentine's blocks lifted the Stumblers. Herb Hudson, Terry Brown and Ed Sayre were all over the court defensively keeping the C-View close throughout the match.

CAPE MAY - Little Joey Hawthorne. a defenseman for the Cape May Recreation Hockey League All-Star team ripped in the game’s first goal from 20 feet out early in the first period to inspire the Bruins to a 9-4 win over

Middle Township.

William Mendo dominated the recent game with his speed on defense and he scored four goals as well, three consecutivolv in

the second period to break open the match Dave Zimmerman scored twice and' John Axehson and Charlie Hickman once as Cape May breezed through the third period un-

challenged

The Middle Township squad was paced by Scott Bond who poked in a pair of scores and Paul Profit who tallied on an alert slap shot after taking a faceoff in fr,ont of Cape May goalie
