KY Afield Outdoors: Hook, Line and Teacher By Lee McClellan Frankfort, KY - School kids fervently look forward to summer break, but often after a few weeks, they complain of boredom. An 18-inch largemouth bass jumping and shaking its head at the end of a line is a sure-fire way to cure boredom and instill a passion for a lifelong wholesome activity in a young person. Many parents would like to teach their kids how to fish, but don't know how to fish themselves. The Angler's Legacy program, one of several programs under the Aquatic Education Branch of the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources, provides an avenue for adults to learn to fish. "This program is for adults," said Easton Copley, aquatic education coordinator for Kentucky Fish and Wildlife. "We want adults who've never fished before or haven't fished in a long time to become successful, long-term anglers." This program teaches the basics of fishing such as the difference between spinning and baitcasting oufits, how to determine the proper hook size for the species sought, choosing the right lures or how to take a fish off a hook. Things that experienced anglers take for granted can be dizzying for a beginner.

Carol Perkins: How pant suits have changed lives of women Carol recalls important dates - 1993 for one - when institutions even allowed women to wear pantsuits, the women who dared be the first - like fashion icon Ruth Bartley as a teacher in Metcalfe County, who dared to be the first to wear pant suits in the classroom. 'Many in our society frown on women wearing pants (especially in church) and that is their right, but I'm just thankful that I never have to wear a dress again . . . ' she says. The next earlier column: Carol Perkins: Swearing off the Happiest Place on Earth By Carol Perkins Pantsuits became popular in this part of the country around 1970. As a matter of fact, I found a full-page feature story (70s) in our local paper about women wearing pantsuits! Things that we once thought were so shocking or newsworthy are nothing more than a passing thought today-in most situations. However, at the time a woman wearing a pantsuit in the work place was daring. It was not until 1993 that ladies could wear pantsuits (or slacks of any kind) on the Senate floor.
