Of Tiny Seal In Umpqua Offers Mystery How a seal got to central Doug las County 100 miles from the ocean remained a mystery today, but William Pitney, fish biologist for the State Game Commission, advanced the belief It was brought here by some individual and re leased. Pitney said It was hardly con ceivable a seal a tiny one at thatcould battle Its way this far up the Umpqua River, nor that It would, even if it could. The seal was found by a couple of surprised boys, members of a party from the Green Community Church swimming in the river about three miles south of Rose burg. The boys,Wayne Medford and Carl Jacobs, sighted the sea animal as it came ashore. They notified State Police, who in turn notified the Game Commission. The' sea. a non-fur bearing specie, commonly called harbor , seals, weighed only about 18 1 pounds, an appeared to be not more than one-fourth grown, said Pitney. It is probable a seal of that age would still be with its mother, he said. it most certainly, he surmised, would not be fighting its way up the awlft Umpqua River that far from home. This specie, he said, needs salt water in which to survive. The little animal was pretty sick and had to be put away, he added. "I'm pretty much burned up ov er the affair," he said. "It is against the law to capture a seal, and few folks have the facilities for keeping them." ' The creature was doomed to die. whether left in the river or kept in captivity, he said. Bull seals sometimes go on a marauding trip, and they have been found in the Willamette riv er as far inland as Orejon City, according to Pitney, but the Col umbia and upper Willamette, while not salt water, are affected by tne tides. A small seal probably would not have the physical endurance to duplicate even that feat, he said. Sutherlin Man Fined For Drunken Driving Everette Ray Stokes of Suther lin pleaded guilty to a charge of drunk driving today and Judge Ira B. Riddle ordered him to pay a fine of $150, gave him a 38-day suspended sentence and revoked bis driver's license for 90 days, according to Municipal Court rec ords. - at a Ptrcolofori No Moving for In mm frotitng 5yim mm nofnin woof stop porMnOAttytitoAtl OS a light Bulbf And Nnoooonrfr $llon.
