Newspaper Page TextSUNDAY, AUGUST 21, lass PAGE FOUR HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON Migratory Bird Rights Told Migratory birds make some long and ttrange flights between their summer and winter homes, accord ing to Chet Kebbe, cruel of fur bearers and waterfowl, Oregon Game Commission. Band returns have shown that in some instances these flights have entailed dis tances of 6,000 miles or more. Of special interest to Oregon hunters are the several thousand waterfowl banded each year at the management areas of the Oregon Game Commission. 1 Of the many band returns by hunters, several of these birds were long range travelers who preferred the Mexican climate in which to spend the winters. A male pintail banded at Sum mer Lake in August of 1053 was taken by a hunter in February 195S at Maramoros, Mexico located on the Oulf of Mexico, a distance of some 2.000 miles from the point of banding. Another long range tourist was a cinnamon leal also banded at Summer Lake in August of 1953 who preferred lower California for Its wintering home. The Bird was shot In February of 1055 at Hardy River, Mexican, Baja California, about 1,200 miles from Bummer Lake. The long range flyer, however, was coot. Banded at Summer Lake In August of 1054, the bird was shot near Amcca, Jalisco, Mexico, which is south of Mexico City, a flight of close to 2,500. Of special Interest was the flight of an eastern species of waterfowl, rarely found west of the Rocky Mountains. A black duck, common from the eastern seaboard to the Mississippi River, decided to take a cross-country flight of some 1,700 miles ' and wound up in Oregon. Banded as a Juvenile female at Orland Park, Illinois In August 1944, this black duck was trapped and released by game commission personnel at Umatilla meadows, Hermlston, Oregon in February of 1955. Maybe this 11-year-old bird de cided to see the world before she retired from the active duty list. L -i a ,P T EI r Ml i 7 I THIS HUGE STEER was recently purchased from Basil Hall, Bly, by R. E. Rhodes, auctioneer at the Klemath Livestock Commission Company. The four year old steer weighs 1,960 pounds and dwarfs the two year old cow standing beside it. The cow tips the scales at 740 pounds. The steer is consuming about 20 pounds of grain a day and all the hay he wants. Rhodes said that plans for the steer are indefinite at present. Umpqua Falls Fishway Built teelhead and salmon will find the South Umpqua Falls mighty eaay this, fall and winter if all stoes well on the fishway now un der construction, According to Oeorge Kernan, chief engineer, Oregon Oame Com mission, low water Hows have fav - ored construction and the Telle Construction Company of Portland, contractors on the Job, rmve been progressing well ahead of schedule. All excavation and forms for the concrete fish ladder have been completed wltli the reinforcement steel now being Installed. The first concrete will be poured within the week. Construction of the ladder will be completed before high wa ter this fall. South Umpqua Falls has long been a stumbling block for mi grating fish. Only at certain stages of water flow were steelhead, sal mon, and other fish able to pass. During extreme low flows all fish were forced to remain below the falls, seriously reducing the num ber which were able to spawn suc cessfully. The new ladder will al low passage at all stages of water flow, enabling fish to reach the vast pawning reaches to the headwaters.

Aerinf Fish Plant Slated Approximately 350 high lakes of the Cascade mountains will be planted by aerial lilt this year in game commission operations, ac cording to Bob Borovicka, fishery biologist, Oregon Game Commis sion. Aerial lifts are now under way from the Fail River Hatchery wnere approximately 500,000 east crn brook and rainbow trout are scheduled for planting in the lake basin groups of the central Cas cade area. Later this week fish will be plant ed in the south Cascade lakes from the Klamath hatchery. Flying oper ations will be based at the air field near Klamath Agency. Mount Hood forest lakes will receive their allocations later in the month from the Hood River Hatchery near Dee. Operations will stem from the Hood River airstrip. A Piper Super Cub will be used for all flying operations. The Cub is fitted with three 15-gallon belly compartments which hold the fish and water. Flying over a lake at 200 to 250 feet, the compartments are opened allowing the fish and water to float down like "rain drops." The 200 to 250-foot drop has no detrimental effect upon the small fingerling trout. One-fourth to one-half pound of fish are carried per gallon of wa ter, depending on the size of the fish. If fry are being planted, one pound of fish per gallon of water Is usually carried. The amount, size, and kind of fish to be planted in each lake is determined by data collected each year by survey crews working the high lake basins. Such data as ftsh populations, size, growth rates, de-Kt-oe of maturity, spawning facili ties, and food conditions are col lected by the survey crews to be used as a basis for future alloca tions. Aerial .stocking of the high lakes by the game commission has in creased each year since its inno vation in 1947 when 35 lakes were planted by the aerial lift method. Todny, stocking by plane has re placed the slow pack string oper ations of yesteryears except where it is impossible or too dangerous to fly. Approximately three-quarter mil lion trout will be planted in 1955 by the aerial operations. seeing tour by bus last night from one end of Los Angeles to the othe;-. At 8 a.m. they were underway on the last leg of their inspection tour, to the hune nearby dairy farm ot County Supervisor Roger Jcs;;up. Ihe siurdy visitors tried to dodge the prcs last niyht after a late dinner, explaining they were dog tired. Then they sneaked into their Air-conditioned bus and "did the town." They drove out Wilshire Blvd.. to Santa Monica, 18 miles of neon lighted store fronts and business establishments. The distance caused one of the farm lceders to comment, "When does this street end?" When they trudtied through the sands of the Santa Monica beach for a close up of the booming Pacific surf, Andrei Stepanovich, a 44-year-old legal adviser to the Soviet Ministry of Agriculture, proved himself the opportunist of the group, He wore his swimming trunks under his trousers and when the group stopped on the ocean shore, he doffed his pants and went for a swim in the breakers. The bus brought them back downtown via Sunset Blvd., the "niteclub strip." and they stopped off at famed Grauman's Chinese Theater in the heart of Hollywood for an lnsp2ctlon of the footprints and handprints of the stars imbed ded In the concrete walk. "Too big to take in in one night. was the general comment about sprawling Los Angeles. La Grande Plane Crash Kills Pilot LA GRANDE, Ore.

EVERETT ifi To the public, the names of inmates who parti cipate in a prison riot or rebellion may seem like a cold statistical report from behind the grim walls. To families of those involved, it can be as closely personal as a brother, a father, or a son. The listing of Richard Hein. 21, as one of the eight participants in last Sunday's short-lived seizure of hostages brought anguish to a Sno homish County home and shocked surprise to many who had given support to a defense committee for the boy who was convicted of hav ing committed a murder at. the aue of 14. "I thought I was shockproof un til .fete horaunul ' caiH Mr. .lnhn ' Hein, the mother. "Now I don't know what to think. I cry to my self from the time I'm off the job unlil I return to work the next morning." Two attorneys have served In succession in the Hein case, with out charge, in the belief that the boy was innocent of the knife and club slaying of a 69-year-old man In his home at Hartford In 1947. Some residents of the area con tributed to the Richard Hein De fense Committee to pay the other costs of the defense and court ap peals. Mrs. Hein sa'd a letter this week from her son included a complaint about "taking the beef eight years ago for something I didn't do." "I'm afraid his faith ran out and he Just lost control," the dis traught mother commented. The prison uprising came while Hein's attorney, Paul Stocker of Everett, was preparing the case for possible review by the State Board of Prison Terms and Pa roles. He said he had held hope for setting vounv Hein out of prison next year. Stocker took over the j case after Hein's original attorney died. Hein was a high school freshman at the time he was charged with first degree murder and convicted largely on circumstantial evidence. The main evidence against the schoolboy defendant was a pen ciled "confession" In his wallet. The boy insisted It was only the product of his imagination, written after the elderly man's body was found. The boy had been arrested after schoolmates reported that he had boasted of knowledge about the killing.
