Fish Spearing
Taboo

The Department of Conservation
this week continued its order pro-
hibiting the spearing Of Great
Northern pike and pickerel in a
move to preserve the fish-life bal
ance of Minnesota waters.
Acting on the recommendation of
fisheries technicians, Commissioners
w. L. Strunk extended the ban
originally decreed last April A for
an indefinite period. 1t will have
the effect Of prohibiting all winter
ice spearing of this species.
The order pointed to investiga-
lions which disclosed an alarming
decrease in the number of large
pickerel in Minnesota lakes.
1T is known that there is danger
of undue depletion Of pickerel, and
that the proper balance Of fish
life in lakes is still endangered by
virtue of spearing," the order read.
Fish technicians were quick to
approve the order. DR.. T. Surber,
veteran Minnesota fisheries author
ity, said spearing of large pickerel
which are only infrequently TAX
en- on hook and line-in numbers
tends to unbalance lake.
"Spearing permits the removal of
large fish from a lake to the detri-
ment of the balance of fish life in
the lake." he said. when these
large species cease to prey upon
smaller ones, the latter multiply out
of bounds and are dwarfed; hence,
for instance, your small perch and
sunfish."

that of the entire squad only six

freshmen aplenty in the Junior

But this thing Is deeper than
mere holding to titular standings.
It's an out and out grudge fight
with Sig's boys forming the i'm
petus because in the first meeting
RVS handed them a three game
licking.
It would not take much for Irv's
to move up into that top spot, those
boys say. Two games out Of the

Conference play gives more sys-

achieved before. For example Sank
Centre and the West Central Con-
ference bob up this fall with a
football setup planned for three
years in advance. It leaves
Sank Centre with five conference

but the fact that Bill Daley
spanked the Minnesota come
back against Wisconsin is no
myth. No less an expert
than Bernie Bierman himself so
admitted publicly.
There was a clear cut reversal
of attitude when Daley went into
that Wisconsin game. Immediately
the Gophers swarmed down the
field on a 75-yard drive. And Daley
carried the ball on more than 40
yards of that push, subsequently
carried the touchdown apple. +.
Not many plays later he intercepted
a Wisconsin pass, put the ball in
