MANY VISITORS TO
THE NATIONAL FORESTS.

The extent to which the national
forests are being used for recrea-
tional purposes is shown by the fact
that well over 100000 persons
visited the forests during 1922,
says Col. w. B. Greeley, chief of
the forest service United States de-
partment Of agriculture, in his an
nual report. In 1917, the first
year records of the number of per-
sons visiting the national forests
were compiled, slightly more than
100000 visitors were recorded.
In 1922 this figure stood at over
100000, thus showing doubling
in the number of visitors to the for
ests in six years. All indications
point to a continued increase for
the future. the report states.
''The use of the national forests
for recreation is in all respects de-
serving of encouragement" the re-
port says. 1t means for no small
part of the country's population a
valuable opportunity and privilege.
Properly provided for recreatlonal
use will add valuable elements to
our national life without seriously
impairing the capacity Of the for
ests to create wealth or render other
public services"
One of the important duties of
officers of the forest service, the re-
port continues, is the protection of
game animals and fish, two resources
of the forest which are closely re-
lated to the use of forested areas as
recreation grounds.
"The wild life resources of the
national forests" it continues, must
be administered, fostered and util-
lied much as are the timber and
forage resources. The cost of this
activity in common with providing
facilities for recreation and conserv-
ing the sources of water, will never
be recovered in the form of COM
mercial receipts, but is justified by
the valuable public service which the
national forests can thus contribute.
"More game refugees and fish
breeding streams and bonds should
be set aside to provide for protected
breeding to meet the rapidly in
creasing use of the forests for rec
reational purposes, careful consid-
Grafton must be given to available
food supplies for the desirable ami
mails and a system Of regulated use
devised that will prevent depletion

In slower and less interesting
contest Ely triumphed over Aurora
for the second time this season Fri
day 1913.
Aurora. entirely lacking in an
offense was able to find the hoop for
only two field goals, one in each
half. All of their other advances
were stopped. Although Ely found
the loop a little oftener they did not
do much shooting. The little shoot
ing on part of both teams made the
game more uninteresting than it
should have been. 1t was hard
fought and at times rough; tripping
being in vogue.
Smolich of the visitors failed to
play the high calibne of ball expect
ed of him. With a.l-state men as
teammates last year he showed up
favorably, but now with poorer play
ers he showed only average form.
A field goal by Anderson and two
free throws constituted Ely's scor-
ing for the first quarter, while
Aurora through Olson made short
shot. Mccarthy and Grahek made
two from the field for Ely and
Hodnich sunk in a free throw for
Aurora in the second quarter which
ended 8-3.
Aurora outclassed Ely Az in the
third period with field goal by
Dunculovich and free throws by
Smolich and Hodnick. Ely then held
Aurora to free throw for the re-
mainder of the game and added FIVE
more points to her own total.

our opinion that the bringing to Ely

ATHLETICS
Aurora, and chisholm Fall Before

(By Sulo Roterus).

Aurora and Chisholm Fall Before
Local High.
Ely won its third and fourth
games of the season when they adj
ministered lickings to Aurora and
Chisholm on Friday and Monday
nights before capacity crowds.
Aurora was defeated 1873 on Friday
and Chisholm was trounced 1910
on Monday.
The Chisholm game brought out
the best basketball seen here be-
tween high school teams so far this
season. The game was fast and
bitterly fought. Not until the fourth
quarter was under way were the
doubts, that Ely w~uld win, re-
moved. Chisholm has a light, fast
pivoting team well versed in basket
ball. Ely had more accurate shoot
ing eye and this proved to be the
deciding factor.

Gerzin. The first patrol of the
scout troop defeated the third patrol
8-4 in basketball.
On Monday night the Junior girls
team overwhelmed the Sophomores
by a 15-7 count. The Sophomores
jumped into the lead at the begin
ming and for time looked like win
ners until the Juniors opened up.
During the halves of the boys game
the scouts furnished many laughs
when they came on the floor and
played in woman's apparel. A time
out was called and numerous vanity
cases were produced from under
meath striped stockings to recomplex
the "girls".
