First of all in this issue, I’d
like to commend and praise our
varsity ami JV rally girls at SUHS.
They have the neatest yells and
dances, and are the cutest in the
lea ue. Of course, maybe that’s
just because they're our girls!
SUHS recently purchased a new
printing press which prints 2,000
items an hour.
“Our Town” is the title of the
play which will be presented by
the Senior class this year. The
play is a very dramatic production.
This is the reason why many
students feel that we can’t do it.
But we seniors will show ’em!
College Entrance Examination
Board tests will be given to all
junior and senior students who
wish to take them, on Saturday,
March 7 and May 2, at Madison,
Lincoln, Wilson, and Jefferson
High Schools in Portland.
Seniors ordered announcements
and name cards last Wednesday.
Just think . . . only three more
months till graduation! Neat-uh!
The majorettes, dressed
in
bright red tops, leotards and short
black skirts, performed during

meeting, February 24.
An ^sriembly was held Tuesday
in the Boy’s gym. Stan Fields
and his table tennis champs put
m a comedy exhibition which stu-
lents enjoyed immensely.
Congratulations to Bill Schilling,
who placed first, and Jerry Nag­
ae, who landed second place in the
district wrestling matches. Even
though there were only three or
four students pulling for them,
the boys did a wonderful job.
Six finalists were announced
during the 3:00 pep assembly in the
boy’s gym for the wrestling and
basketball court. Carol Meir, Hil­
de Olds, Carol Weisen, and Gail
Maroney had high hopes but Cathy
Vallierg captured all hearts for
Basketball Queen, and Cheryl
Hames was honored as Wrestling
Queen.

Sorry I didn’t make it last week,
but I’ve got lots ot news this time
to make up for it.
We Pioneer Press staffers had a
tough decision to make last Thurs­

we couldn’t decide whether or not
to have an ed torial on the conduct

our minds to go ahead and have
it.
Mr. James Alles is sponsor

Fashionable Big Game Wear Neckties
by Milt Guymon
It hasn’t
quite
come to
striped pants and tails as yet,
but the well-dressed deer or elk
in Oregon’s wilds are sporting
highly-colored neckties
to be
among the elite in their society.
To elevate individuals to even
higher levels, some are wearing
flaming ribbons, tinkling bells, or
even a combination of all three.
And from then on an animal so
adorned is the most outstanding
critter in the band.
“Color them yellow’’ might well
be the motif in this respect as
game biologist on several big game
winter ranges lure the animals into
man-made traps and enclosures
where those selected wind up ad­
orned with brilliant, irridescent
neckbands, bells or fluttering str­
eamers.
It is not known whether the deer
and elk like the idea or not, but
luring animals into traps and en­
closures is a well-planned pro­
gram of the game commission to
study migration and distribution of
animals on a number of winter
and summer ranges. The pro­
gram is designed and aimed toward
more efficient managment of the
big game resources.
Dolling up deer with flaming
neckties is underway on five winter
ranges--Fort Rock Interstate,
Steens, White River, and the John
Day Northside--while tagging elk
is being done on the Troy big
game range in northeastern Oregon
and the Millicoma area along the
south coast.
To transform deer or elk into
creatures of distinction the traps
are baited with choice food items
such as mahogany and bitter brush.
Hay is used in some areas as well
as pellet concentrates. There is
no question that discriminating
animals will enter the trap to in­
vestigate the sight and smell of
such dainty dishes.
Most of the traps are self-op­
erating, in that the animal itself
trips the gate as it munches on the
bait. These are small trapping
devices and used on deer for the
capture and tagging of single an­
imals.
Elk traps are usually much larg­
er enclosures designed to capture
several animals at a time. This
type of trap must be watched by
an observer when elk are in the
vicinity. Normally, the gate is
sprung by remote control after
the elk have entered the trap.
One other method of capture is
used--dart guns which fire a
hypodermic syringe charged with
a knockout concoction. These guns
are efficient at short ranges only
and are being used in the Milli­
coma area for elk. When a dart
hits its target, it releases the
tranquilizer and the animal merely
lies down for a short sleep. As
the concoction wears off. the an­
imal trots away wearing its new
adornment of highly-colored head
gear or tie piece none the worse
for its humility.
Captured animals are marked
with neckbands, streamer tags,
bells, or a combination of all
three. To accurately pinpoint the
capture site and ultimate distrib­
ution sightings, various colors are
used, including yellow, white,
green, blue and red.
In this
fashion an individual animal not
only tells exactly where it spends
the winter but where it travels
during the summer months as
well.
Deer traps are inspected every
day by game biologists during
the trapping period. A number
of traps may be located at var­
ious points on the winter range
and the travel route and inspect­
ion is the same each day. This
eliminates any chance of atrapped

haps part of the following day.
winter range where trapping and
tagging studies have been under
way two seasons.
Almost 175
elk have been marked here to
date, 84 so far this winter.
Of the previous animals tagged,
hunters have taken 9 elk and 34
additional sightings have been re­
corded. Most of the sightings have
come from the general area in
a giant wheel-like pattern, but
migrations have been recorded
55 and 60
miles away. One
tagged cow was reported near La
Grande, while a second was re­
ported near Meacham. One five-
point bull was killed near Elgin,
and a cow was shot by a Wash­
ington hunter near Antone about
18 miles from the trap site.
And what does all this trapping
and tagging mean? Many factors
are actually involved, but most
important is that big game numbers
are keyed to what the winter
range will support. Since we att­
