Veritable Fisherman’s Paradise Opens After Thursday Rain
On Long Island many fishing clubs charge annual dues from 91,000 to 3,500. Malvern lacks members, but J. E. Randergon offers fishing conveniences and service. He clashed with Jim Hodges the weather forecaster and staged two such demonstrations. Wednesday night Ron Henderson bought a new sash hat, left it on a desk, and the rain caused a puddled spill. Randerson predicted more rain Thursday, observed wet skies, and set a bucket on his desk to collect water. Friday morning the bucket was full, a fishing pole extended from it, and he plans to reopen the pond once anglers haul out the big catch, officially opening the local fishing season. The editor will be glad to assist.
