Long Bow and
Arrow Legal in
Taking Carp
HARRISBURG, Pa. The
long bow and arrow is now a
legal device for taking carp in
Pennsylvania. The announce
ment was made by William
Voigt, Jr., Executive Director
of the Pennsylvania Fish Com
mission.
The signature of Governor
George Leader to the “Archery-
Carp” Bill amends Section 50,
clause (d) of the Fish Code by
adding “Nothing in this sec
tion shall prohibit the use of
long bows and arrows tor taking
or Jailing carp.”
The bill had the support of
the Pennsylvania Federation of
Sportmen’s Clubs. Its enactment
provides an additional means of
recreation It is also looked upon
as a possible means of helping
in the control of a -species of
fish that is not a totally desir
able tenant of many of the Com
monwealth’s waters. With the
passage of the bill, Pennsylvania
became the 25th State to
legalize taking carp a-la-Robm
Hood.
In addition to explaining that
a fishing license is required to
engage in the sport, Voigt
cautioned th&t the March 14—
April 15 fishing ban on wateis
of the State stocked with trout
extends to bow and airow fish

When a man hangs out his Shingle . . .
Thousands of them started that way . . .
with a hole in the wall and a slab of cedar,
hung o\er the canopied boardwalk.
They were men of every sort, in businesses
of every sort. And most of them had some
things in common, like vision, initiati\e, and
faith in the future.
But eadi that lasted had still an extra
quality in common with the other —an acute
consciousness of the responsibilities he as
sumed when he went into business.
He knew that the day he “hung out his
shingle” he did more than announce a new
venture —he announced, his willingness to
plight his future with his community and

work with them, and to sen e them.
Now the signs have changed some. But
though neon has supplanted the cedar slab
and the modern store front has replaced the
canopied boardwalk, the philosophy of the
successful remains the same.
It’s the philosophy that admits to the
responsibilities assumed when a man
“hangs out his shingle” —the tesponsibihties
to his neighbors, to his community, and to
his country.
It’s the philosophy to which we, as your
John Deere dealer, subscribe.
