Boy Scouts Found
Safe After Boat Trip
Augurn. Cel., June 0 tU.R)
Four Sacramento Boy Scouts,
missing for more than 20 hours
on a life-raft ride down the
American river, were found safe
today six miles south of here.
They were discovered by a
search posse led by Placer county
Sheriff E. J. Kenlson, who said
the boys had abandoned their
raft and were walking along the j
river. They had traveled about 25 I
miles from Weimar, Cel., where :
they took to the river yesterday,
Kenlson said.
The youths, all members of '
Sacramento explorer Scout
Troop 2024. were David Som
mers, 17, Clarence D. Gallagher, I
Jr., Walter Lester Cox Jr., and
William Rlter Jr.. ID. of Tort-1
land, Ore., a house guest of Gallagher.
all hands agreed. The question
was: How much of the area
could be reclaimed for agricul
ture without disturbing the
geese and the ducks?
Sportsmen Agree
Well, 8,000 aores Just north
of Crump lake can be reclaimed,
and the sportsmen agreed it
would not hinder, but might even
help the lush nesting areas to
the north just before you get
to Hart lake.
The land board members
Gov, Douglas McKay, Secretary
of State Earl T. Newbry, and
State Treasurer Walter J. Pear
sonwent Into the area Wednes
day with a caravan of sportsmen
and of ranchers who farm nearby
areas and who are interested in
what will happen to their water
rights if the proposed reclama
tion project comes off.
X. T. Pierce, clerk of the land
board, explained that the dike,
which would drain the 8,000
acres for which a lease already
is eontemplated, would extend
from the north shore of Crump
lake in southeasterly direction
for some elfiht miles, acutally,
the straight-line distance of the
dike would be about 2V miles,
but it would be built roughly in
the form of a crescent, which
would make the greater length
necessary.
Would Plant Grain
The man who has the lease
under consideration would plant
grain for the first three or four
years probably oats or barley
then convert the entire 8,000
acres to meadow. Grass in the
valley grows prollfically, hay
crops are phenomenal. The drat
years or me grain crops are
what caused consternation and
misgivings among sportsmen and
some farmers, at the start. They
said the steady wind that whips
through the valley, would lift
the crop right oft the ground
and take a lot of valuable top
soil along with it. That' what
some ranchers said. Sportsmen
feared the ducks and geese
oblivious to the fact they might
be trespassing on some man's
crop would get Into the grain
fields, and devour so much of
the crop that the operators would
seek state permission to destroy
the birds.
But the men Interested in the
development of the 8,000 acres
said they were convinced the
crop would not blow away. They
pointed to the fact that frost
settles in the area involved
and that means dead air. No
wind. Where the winds blow,
the frost doesn't linger. They
also felt that damage to grain
would be minimum, until grass
could be planted in the area,
then there'd be no worrk as fal
se the birds were concerned.
No Bad Effect
After a visit to the scent,
where the men left their cars
and footed It over rocks in
rattlesnake hillsides, sportsmen
and farmers agreed that the
8,000 acres probably would be
reclaimed without bad effect for
anybody. And why the reclama
tion? Well, the money from the
state's share of the crops one
fourth of the net will go into
the state school fund. Several

of the valley already In meadow,
and It would be the aim eventu
ally to put cattle on the 8,000
acres of planned meadow.
No, the 8.000 acres is okay.
That's ironed out. But the land
board, or some of the men tn it.
feel that more acres eould be
reclaimed, particularly the area
of the Petrie swamp.
Sportsmen objected to that on
the field trip Wednesday. They
feared any such development
might persuade the birds to go
elsewhere for their nesting. Men
who argued for further reclama
tion in the area, said the birds
could go across the narrows and
nest on the other side. Men who
argued against further raelama
tlon said you might have a hard
time convincing the birds they
should move to the other side.
They've been nesting their since
before the white men first saw
the area. And some sportsmen
said they didn't think the water
fowl would consider it in order
to give up their squatter's rights,
or nesting rights.
All Arguments Heard
At any rate, the land board
members heard the arguments
on all sides, but made no decision
on the spot. Gov, McKay left
soon after the field trip for
Klamath Falls, where he flew to
San Francisco for a meeting of
the intergovernmental relations
committee.
Newbry and Pearson, and
Slate Budget Director Harry
Dorms n who went along with
them, returned to the capital at
Salem. Board members indicated
they would probably hold s joint
meeting with sportsmen In Salem
some time soon for a further
threshing out of the problem
Then later they would meet
themselves to mke the finsl
decisions concerning any devel
opments of the ares.
