Mudholes Made To Ease Insect-Pestered Game MINNEAPOLIS, July 14. 7D A bombing mission to make mud holes was completed yesterday by a dozen Navy planes.. The planes, from the naval air station here, dropped 1,000 and 500-pound bombs on a portion of Thered Lake game refuge In Northern Minnesota. It is 'hoped by the State Con servation Department, which suggested the mission, that the bomb craters will become mud holes a refuge for deer and moose pestered by Insects. Nine craters, some about 100 feet across, were made by the bombs. Sports anglers are not cooper ating as they should in reporting tagged fish caught from streams of the Umpqua watershed, says koss wewcomD, game depart' ment biologist. Newcomb, who Is in charge of the Umpqua river study, told members of the Roseburg Rod and Gun club Tuesday night that many tagged fish are being caught by anglers who neglect to make .reports. Other anglers fail In making reports to tell where the marked Iish were taken. Hundreds of tagged fish have been released in all parts of the Umpqua system, he said, the purpose being to study migration habits and other factors. From meager reports received, for in stance, it has been learned that fish planted during the month of March snowea a tendency to move over a considerable area from the spot 'where they were planted, but that fish put in the river during May and June ap pear to be staying close to the place where tney were planted. A few fish from the March planting have been taken at a distance of several miles from the site where they were intro duced into the river. . Further plantings now are in progress, Newcomb said. James Bond, superintendent of the Rock Creek trout hatchery, reported that approximately 25, 000 rainbow trout are to be dis tributed this month and that the fish, now a year old, are averag ing nearly one-half pound each in weight. Minnows Rescued Newcomb also reported that because of the late winter steel head spawning season, the newly hatched fish are of much smaller size than normal for this time of year, which will make salvage operations more difficult. S a 1 vage has been successfully carri ed out each year in small streams which begin to run dry in early summer. Steelhead and salmon minnows are seined from pot holes and transported to the river. Many thousands of fish heve been saved annually. This year, however, because the fish are so small, it is feared many will be lost. Newcomb also believes that the late spawning teason may have some bearing on the fact that the summer run of steelheads to date is only about one-half the normal migration. He is hoping that the rate of movement will gain speed during the next few weeks. The Rod and Gun club gave a vote of thanks to Boy Scouts Jin Lowe, troop 7, and Don Nichols and Jackie Palm, troop 133, for volunteer work in con nection with improvement of the picnic grounds. Paul Caskey, chairman of the grounds com mittee, was given blanket author ity to proceed with further devel opment of the picnic area at the Winchester grounds. ' Cecil Graves, chairman of the trapshoot committee, announced that the traps will be open for use each Sundav after 1 p. m. as long as shooters continue to show interest. Bruce Yeager, newly elected president of the Oregon Wildlife federation, reported he has re ceived several requests for infor mation concerning Douglas coun ty's land acquisition program, sponsored by the Jmpqua Basin Conservation council, and which resulted in $10,000 being included in the county budget to start a program of land acquirement for recreational purposes. Yeager said he has been informed the State Game Commission plans to include a report on the Douglas county program In a future bulletin as a means of inspiring other counties to adopt a like program. He also reported tentative plans for a joint picnic at Rose burg Aug. 14 between clubs of the Umpqua Basin Conservation council and the Southwest Oregon Sportsmen's association.
