Friday, V&OREGONSSjft GHZ r 101 MAN OF THE MOUNTAINS When famous wilderness nun, Jim Bond comet to Salem, at the Senior High School Auditorium, Monday and Tuesday, January U and 19, he will bring with him more experience than any other adventurer in the country. For many yean Bond has hiked around the mountains of Alaska, the Yukon, Alberta and British Columbia. Each summer Bond foes north from his home in Portland to stay three, lour and sometimes five months. Bond generally takes a plane to tome little northern outpost town and, after spending three or lour diyi getting ootnt- - , . ted. be is oH to the mountain. Ry.i , -$7- , 3 The Director of Game.

When I fin- iahed that trip I said I would . aever ge again. On that trip we ran oat el food and we al- most got caught by freexe-aa. "This past summer I had an- ether one of those-rough trips in the far north in a country, the Hart River, where you never, nev- r Ihinlr n ainff invnnfe W had 17 or 18 days of rain and got . M 01D , badly mixed up in our directions. We didn't know when or where we were going to come out of the mountains. Cold winds were blowing off the Arctic Ocean, only 300 miles from us, and a 30 or 40 mile wind can change that country from summer to winter almost over night. The heavy frosts had dried out the grass snd our horses were getting poorer by the day. I can tell you when we got out 1 was mighty relieved." VOWS AGAIN BUT LAYS PLANS "And when I finished this last trip 1 said I would never go again. But time has a way of doing things snd right now I'm making my plans for next summer and fall." In speaking of the Hart River country of the northern Yukon, Bond said, "You cannot imagine how big that country is. Why it it half as large aa Oregon, and not a aoul in the whole country But it it a great game country and tome of those giant moose are the largest I've seen right there in the shadows of the Arctic Circle where it gets 80 below in the winter. And we saw many handsome caribou, many "Tundra" grizzly bear, and white mountain abeep. "You know I was tent into that country by the Yukon Game Department to make a game aurvey. The Hart River country was . to large we didn't get half through it I'll have to go again next summer." Jim Bond, known from coast-to-coast for hit fine all-color wild life motion pictures of life at it goet on in the wilderness, will present three of hit best picturei in the Salem High School Audi torium, Monday and Tuetday evenings, January 18 and IB, under the sponsorship of the Iiaak Walton League of America, Salem Chapter. The three pictures, "Those Kodiak Bears," "Alaska's Leaping Rainbows," and "The Happy Hunting Ground," make up a two-hour program that is of interest to the'entire family. Admis sion ia $1.10 for adults and .50 for children, taxes included. Tickets are available at all Salem sporting goods stores. MAY 1 OPENING CONTROVERSIAL The most controversial item from the tentative angling regula tions seems to us to be the statewide opening of trout season on May 1 Those in favor say the uniform opening will prevent anglers from concentrating on any one area but of course, there is no fishing to be had until late in May in central and eastern Oregon, at the earliest, so the fishing pressure will be exclusively on the western tide of the Catcsdes as always. Coast anglers are unhappy about the May 1 opening, claiming that most of the cutthroat will hv that time be gone back to the ocean. Closing "stream, between March 1 and April 30 is a regula tion that goea hand in hand with the opening day regulation. Pur pose of this regulation, and a valid one. is to prevent the taking of over-ripe steelies. The game commish meets again at 10 s.m. Jan 22 to set the permanent regulations, snd very likely there will be some argument regarding the opening date. Speaking of game commission one of their representatives will appear in Salem next Wednesday evening to take pert in a "what happened to the ducks" ioium at the Uaak Walton meeting . , .
