Senator J. D• Brackenrich, Chair-
man of the Senate Natural Re-
sources Committee, has appointed
a subcommittee of the Natural Re-
sources Committee to work with the
Division of Natural Resources' Li-
cense Task Force to improve the
current format of the State's Hunting
& Fishing Licenses.
Many sportsmen have com-
plained that the license is on too
fragile paper and that its size makes
it cumbersome to carry. Senator
Brackenrich stated, '1 understand
the need for a license system that
gives all types of sportsmen an op-
portunity to select the type of hunt-
ing or fishing they are interested in,
and that the system provide easy
accountability. However, I do not
understand why our license pur-
chases cannot have a more durable
license and one which is of a more
manageable size. tt is my intention
to work with the sportsmen, license
agents and the Division of Natural
Resources to solve this problem."
Mr Brackenrich said "the license
task force has met twice since the
legislature has adjourned and some
very good suggestions have been
made. I believe real progress is
being made. The license committee
is composed of sportsmen, License
Agents and staff of the Division of
Natural Resources. They are work-
ing very closely with me to solve this
problem."

A week-long soccer camp in Lewisburg is just now winding down. More than 100 youngsters from
throughout the area, ages 6 to 14, participated under the guidance of Head Soccer Coach Peter McCray
from Davis and Elkins College and camp organizer Rusty McDaniel of Lewisburg.
Assisting in this year's camp were Davis and Elkins soccer players Humaid Salem, a 24-year-old
native of the United Arab Emirates; Tae Rhim, 18, of Seout, South Korea; 20-year-old Dan Court of
Frederick, Maryland; Vince Rooney, 22, of Dublin, Ireland•
McCray, a native of Orleans, Massachusetts, has been soccer coach at Davis and Elkins for the past
two years. He is the Olympic Development Coach for West Virginia.
Mrs McDaniel started the soccer league in Lewisburg ten years ago. She is vice president of the
league and a member of the West Virginia Soccer Board. She is also a certified referee. "One of my
goals is to get soccer into Greenbrier East. We are raising the money now. It costs a lot less than
football," Mrs McDaniel said.
Each participant in the local soccer camp paid $35 to take part. In addition to professional instruction
and help from the college players, they received t-shirts, full insurance coverage, and "all the Gatorade
they could drink."
"Mitre supplied the balls. Pepsi and Road Runner Pizza supplied drir~ks and food," Mrs McDaniel said,
"We want them to know how much we appreciate their help."

Game Results
By Jennifer Taylor
Crawford's Club travelled to Her-
cules field in Covington to take on
Westvaco in a double-header June
18. In the first game, Amber Hinkle's
triple/RBI began Crawford's scoring
drive. Beverly Smith and Wendy
Holcomb hit RBI's increasing
Crawford's score. Brenda Smith's
home run/RBI combination brought
fans and players to their feet as
three more runs were scored. How-
ever, Westvaco gained the lead to
win the game in the 7th inning with a
final score -- Crawford's 6 --
Westvaco 7.
Not to be discouraged,
Crawford's headed to the batter's
box with renewed strength and en-
ergy for the second game. In the 1st
inning, Vet Calhoun-Erskine, Karen
Goodall, and Beverly Smith hit
triples to score a run each. Mildred
Holland kept up Crawford's batting
momentum by hitting a double in the
2nd inning, while Debbie Wanzer hit
a triple scoring two runs in the 3rd.
Vet Calhoun-Erskine, Karen Goo-
dall, Wendy Holcomb, Kelly Livesay,
and Beverly Smith hit RBI's through-
out the game for Crawford's. Even
with tremendous team effort,
Crawford's was defeated 10 --
Westvaco 12.
Crawford's Club played Brown's
Transfer for the first time this season
at Dorrie Miller field in Lewisburg
June 19. For everyone's delight,
Beverly Smith hit a home run scor-
ing two runs for Crawford's and hit a
double/RBI combination later in the
game. Karen Goodall also boosted
Crawford's score by hitting a triple/
RBI combo in the 1st inning and an
RBI scoring two runs later in the
game. To further Craw~ord's lead,
Debbie Wanzer hit a double scoring
two runs and came back later to hit
an RBI scoring two more runs. Kelly
Livesay also hit a double/RBI combi-
nation for Crawford's, while other
RBI's were hit by Vet Calhoun-Er-
skine, Angle Morris, and Liz Wick-
line. Crawford's hard hitting paid off
as the game was called after five
innings with a final score of
Crawford's 20 -- Brown's Transfer
10.
