Th e league seaso n run s from September through April , with from 50 to 60 separate leagues participating every year. Open bowling is also ·available.

IRS offers · withholding tips Working couples, especially tho se with few or no dependent s, more often than not will owe tax when they file their annual tax return , unle ss th ey have paid additional taxe s during the year, the Internal Revenue Service said. The reaso n for owing additional tax is the withholding rates . They are ba sed solely on each indi vidual 's wages, and ,do not take a sp o u se's wages into account. The withholdin g rate is lower for married per-sons than for anyone else. For example, the highest tax rate ap-plicab le to a couple filing a joint return with only one wage earner making $26,000 is up to 32 percent. The withholding would be adequat e. But a working couple- one spouse witb tot al' wages of $ 10,000 and the other with total wages of $16,000- might have in-sufficient withholding to cover the tax rat e on their combined tota l wages of $26,000. There are several alternatives for a wor k-ing cou ple to. combat a large tax bill at filing time. Gene rally , filing sepera te ret llrn s is not the answer, becau se those rat es are higher still , according to the IRS. Yet it is good tax plannin g to consider the po ssibility . Filing separate ly might be a tax adva ntage , but if it is not, there are two other choice s. One way to confront under-withholdin g is to pay the additional tax by mean s of estim ated taxes. This means that the amo un t is paid in quarterly installm ent s dir ectly to the IR S using vouchers that come with Form 1040-ES, "Declaratio n of Estimat ed Tax for Individuals ." Anoth er choice is to file a revised Form W:.4, "Employee' s Withholdin g Allowance Certificate," with the employer claiming fewer or no allowanc es or requ esting addi-tional withholding . Al so, married taxpayer s may choose to have· taxes withheld as if they were single. Both Form s 1040-ES and W-4 t are available from local IRS offices. Mo st employer s have supplie s of Form W-4. While mo st employers are willing to honor the wishes of employee s by withholding additional income tax, they are under no obligation to do so. If an employer refuses to withhold additional tax, the best choice then may be to pay estimated tax. Additional information may be found in the IRS Publication 505, "Tax Withholding and Declara tion of Estimated Tax," available free at loca l IRS office s.

I The Burnavllle CURRENT, September 5, 1979 , ' i ~ , I Spotts Braves de·teat Lincoln 10-0 in football opener . . by Jeff Burrill A strong ground game and a tight defense were the key ingredients in Burn s-ville High School.'s 10-0 season opening football victory at . Bloomington Lincoln Friday night. Fullback Dave Graves led the way for Burnsville with 135 yards rushing on 24 car-ries, including a three yard touchdown run. Halfback Jim Rassmussen pick ed up 80 yards on JO carri es, while his backfield counterpart, Bill O'Brien, added 60 yards on 12 carries. In the passing department, quarterback Bill Oaster was one-for-two, an eight yard compl etion to O'Brien . Burnsville scored all its points in the sec-ond period, with junior Tom Beli_sle kicking an extra point and a 12 yard field goal. "Th e final score was deceptive," Burns -ville Coach Dick Hanson said. "We domi-nated the game more than the score in-dicate s. I feel we played too conservat ively in the second half, but we' ll work on that. Ther e are easier ways to move the ball than we showed." What the Braves showed was an im-pre ssive ground game which maintained pos session of the ball for 42 plays in the first half, compared to the nine for Lin coln . "By the end of the third quarter, they on-ly had 26 total yards," Hanson said, "which is indicative of how well our CAA still accepting fall sports registration CAA is still accepting registration for girls third and fourth grade basketball. Any girl interested in playing basketball this season may contact Bonnie Lammers at 894-4644, or Jan Wallace at 452-1349. Registration also remains open for boys flag football.

The Burn sville defen sive unit held the Bears to 108 total yards, with 77 of tho se coming on two fourth quarter plays. At one point in the final period, Lincoln advanced to Burnsville's eight yard line, only to be pushed back to the 16 and stopped there . "We had a lot of outstanding perfor-mances on defen se," Hanson said. "Tackle John Nelson had a fine night, including a fumble recovery caused by Kevin Cook. Our defen sive end s, Brent Halliday and John Ritter, also played well, as did no se guard Brian Krueger and 'linebacker Jon Saatzcr. And safety Tom Branson had an excellent night." Burnsville's next game is at 7:30 p.m., Friday a t Pat es's Stadium against Min-netonka . The Skippers op ened their seaso n with a narrow 21-13 loss to defending Cla ss "AA" sta te champions Edina West. "We thought Minnetonka might be down a little thi s year ," Han so n said. , "They graduated a lot of kids. But they played West tough. They dropped a touchdown pass when they were tr ailing 14-13, and a completion there might have made it a different ball game. Minnetonka is big and our scouts were impressed with them."

WINTER KILL & THE DEER HERDS Winter kills only end during winter. It really begins in spring, when a marsh is drained ; in summer, when a hedgerow is bulldozed; in autumn, when a soil bank claim is plo wed under; or any morning, when a farmer decides to clean up a bru shy fence corner or an old _ orchard. Most winter kills don't stan in the outdoor s . They begin in -government bureaus that are plotting new drainage proirams or in legislative chambers where archaic buck laws are perpetuated. ·winter is the enforcer. Man and his works condemn wildlife-e specially the uninformed man who thinks he know s more than the research experts. THE WOLF KILL IS NATURA~ TOO Every second or third year is a 'natural' kill . .. (taking one year out of three or four years that starvation would normally occur). Th e wolf is a needed predator, for he remove s some animals and he lps to alleviate t?rowsing pre ssure s on an already overcrowded range due to several factor s. During the subsequent three years, wolve s can remove deer from ·areas accessib le to hun ters , which could be harve sted by t he hun ters. In inacce ssible areas, deer remo ved by wolves are not available to hunt ers. In the se area s the wolves do NOT com pete with hunter s. In all insta nces, it is a de finite benefit to deer to have wolves maint ain a steady heal t hy herd. ATTENTION Did you see t he pr ize list at th e Slobobi an Picnic?
