Burning old stumps and tree cuttings is the thing as the blustery winter weather sets in. It is permissible to have outdoor fires until March 15. But the fire must not be more than 10 feet In diameter, closer than 50 feet from any structure, and it must be attended at all times. There can be only one pile burning at a time. The area has to be cleared with a firebreak around it On spite of the weather). There should be no prohibitive matter in the fire such as rubber, plastic or garbage. If offensive smoke creates a nuisance, the fire must be extinguished on request. The Department of Natural Resources is listed in front of the phone book for a helping hand. On the subject of garbage, the nice, clean Bear Creek-Dewatto Road, so recently improved by the Mason County crew, is littered with rubbish as the hunting season progresses. It is a shameful mess. A night in court (Continued from page one.) Going back to tile first case, the judge was asked to dismiss it by tile highway patrolman because tile state's witness hadn't shown up. The defendant flashed a broad grin at her parents. The three of them got up and left tile courtroonl. Calling for the defendant that hadn't shown up earlier, Judge Fuller got no response. Quickly, she issued a bench warrant for his arrest, She then turned her ztltonlion to the two remaining defendants. One was charged with driving 55 ntph in a 45 mph zone. He w:ls fined SI5. Another 'oung ill;111 was chart with driving without a license. He said he had just forgotten it. Hi carelessness cost him $10. After court Judge Fuller said she was pleased with her first night here. Next time, however, she anticipates having more cases, Eventually, if there are enough, a clerk will accompany her to Belfair. "If business is heavy, 1 can't take time to write stuff down," she explained. "1 like to have a raport with the defbndants." ' Judge Fuller will hear traffic violations, game and fisheries violations, and even small claims. The next evening courl will be Wednesday, December 20, then every third Wednesday of tile mouth thereafter. Paae 6 Huckleberry Herald section of itlelton-Mason ;ountv North Mason coach keeps winning in perspective The 1978 I\\;)otball season at North Mason liigh School certainly won't be remembered for its win-loss record Ihe team beat Vasllon for its only Will of the season. Itowever, if Ihc athlcles maintain a positive outlook in personal challenges because of their football experience, Coach Phil Pugh will be satisfied. It's not that Pugh is against winning, on the contrary, "'we strive to win," he said. "'1 guess you'd say we try to keep the importance of winning in " perspective." He also winning said that can't be equated with success. Even losers practice hard and , play good games. Sometimes the athletes play their hearts out, but they were just outmatched. It doesn't happen too often, but it did a couple times this year, he said. In those instances, the coaches could be satisfied with the games, said Pugh, but it is hard for the athletes to accept. "We try to point out how well the team did, but understandably, the kids weren't totally satisfied," which, Pugh said, is probably the way it sllould be. When someone goes into tile world, they shouldn't be satisfied if they don'! quite get a job tlonc, he explained. "We try to stress tile positive atlitude with the kids," he said, "and we try to approach eacli competition with tile idea that it's still a game and on the field they should conduct themselves in a spoltSln;.lnlJkc lnanner." The reason Ibr this emphasis is quite obvious to Pugh. "You realize so|newhere down the road .... in a month or a year -- the score of the game will become unimportant." But what impression the kids derive from tile game is • important. Athletic competition has a big effect on the character of an individual, maintains Pugh, and he is determined to nlake that a good effect. His approach to sports isn't unusual, coaches in other districts share the same basic philosophy. Of course, you "see some teams that obviously don't pay attention to sportsmanship, but most coaches feel these type of things are important," Pugh said. However, he thinks these things are not only important, the players from each team are attitude, it has also made an own and sat but they are the "comer stone" friends, he said. impression while traveling to quietly among of his athlete's training. Pugh has even taken this idea away games, eating, eating, eating Throughout the season the one step Ihrther. This season, for When they are traveling, "we people do.
