SMALL LAKE is
BUILT BY STATE
Artificial Body of Water
Made in Brown County.

Work OF building an artificial lake
in Brown county in a region where
there is little water in the streams.
due to quick drainage, caused by
the rough topography, is about COM
pleted by the state conservation de-
partment.
The little lake, with an area of
about ten acres under water, was
made possible by throwing 240-
foot concrete dam across a deep ra-
vine, and the result is an entranc-
ing body of water, kept fresh by
numerous springs.
1t is the first project of its kind
attempted by the state department,
and it is very likely, says George
N. Manifold, fish and game division
superintendent, whose division
financed the work, the success of
this will lead to others.
The lake is situated in the 1000
acre game preserve purchased by
the division from earnings, and
maintained as natural propaga-
ton place for small wild life. The
lake will be well stocked with vari-
GUS game fish species and in few
years gives promise of being a
splendid fishing place. Actual work
of making the lake was accom-
plished by the departments epgi-
neering division.

Final Is Thriller
The final in this event, in doubt
until the checkercd flag flashed, was
close enough to force Collins to
break P~armenter's mark. Neck-and-
neck for five laps, Collins surgcd
ahead on the home straightaway
stretch and copied first honors.
Collins and Chandler, because of
their spectacular races in the heats
Of the sweepstakes event, were
chosen by Mrs. Patterson to COM
pete for her special cup. Collins
started in pole position but had not
covered the first lap before Chandler
had taken it away from him. Los
ing the pole put Collins to a disad-
vantage temporarily and he trailed
for most of the second lap. On the
third and final turn, however, he
took greater chances On the turns
and pulled up wen with his opponent
as they reached the home straight
away. With his auto a trifle faster.
Collins surged ahead by threc-quar-
ters of a length. Twenty-Five yards
from the finish. the Canadian
champion cut in front Of Chandler
to prevent Chandler from passing
by any possible chance. Chambers
expert driving probably saved the
two from a crash in front of the
