emergency hunt lists begin
ning July 1. A separate list will
be made fur each county in the
state
New emergency hunt lists
are set up each year. They
consist of the names of
volunteers who have indicated
an interest in participation in
a special hunt, usually on
short notice, that may be
called to solve a specific
problem such as severe game
damage to agricultural crops.
Hunts are held infrequently,
and there is never any
guarantee one will be called
and no way of predicting
where one might take place.
Hunts are called only on an
emergency basis as the name
implies.
Oregon residents 18 vpars of
age or older may be included
on a list for on&founty only by

Razor clam diggers
must be careful
By using care and following
the rules, razor clam diggers
- can do a lot to help insure an
abundance of clams on ocean
benches next year. Shellfish
Biologist Terry Link of the
Department of Fish and
Wildlife says there are large
numbers of young razor clams
present on Clatsop County
beaches, and their survival
depends largely upon cooper
ation from clam diggers.
Even though it is against the
law. Link says, some diggers
are returning the small clams
to the beach instead of keeping
them. But most, he says , do
not realize that about 80
percent of these clams have
been injured in digging and
will die. Juvenile clams are
vulnerable to damage from
handling, pressures caused in
digging.or being washed out
Regulations say the digger
must keep the first 24 razor
clams dug. regardless of size

or condition. The regulation is
designed to prevent the wast
age of smaller clams that die
anyway if they are returned to
the sand. Those smaller clams
are the ones that will average
four inches next year and will
constitute the bulk of next
year's catch.
Each year on the average.
Link says. 165,000 clams are
washed away, eaten by sea
gulls or left injured to die in
the sand by careless diggers.
This year, because of the
larger than usual number of
small clams there is a
potential for a greater than
average wastage. And each
one wasted is one that won't lie
there to harvest next year.
It is not usually difficult to
avoid digging the small clams.
Link says. The size of the
"show" or dimple in the sand
is usually an indication of the
size of the clam nnd it takes
only a little bit of concentra
tion and practice to learn what
to look for. When a digger
makes a mistake and comes
up with an undersized clam he
should he a sport and keep it
as part of his bag limit. He
should not discard it and take
another thus killing two
clams.
Each female clam has six to
ten million eggs, Link says,
but only a few survive the five
to 16 week free-swimming
stage to settle to the txittom
and become established in the
beach Razor clams have no
ability to move horizontally in
the sand, so the location at the
time of "set" determines
where thai particular clam
will remain until it dies, is dug
or is washed out
