BIRD TRAPS
 CATCH RATS
 IN JUN EAU

When 1t lappen5 once, you might call it an accident-but three times, rever! That's what Ralph B. Will jams, who resides at HIT A Street, says about the rats he caught in the bird traps he has set on his lawn.
 One of MT Williams hobbies is the trapping and banding of birds, in cooperation with the Fish and Wild life Service, to determine their mi gratory habits. The traps are so constructed that trapped birds will not be injured and after banding, they are released.
 The bait used consists of bread and canary bird seed, but accord ing to Williams, the rats seem to like it better than the birds. Will jams further stated that he has used hird traps in Utah, Wyoming and Colorado, but that this is the first time he has ever caught rats in them.
 Williams home is in one Of the better residential sections of Juneau and bis experience again indicates that rats are not restricted to the business and waterfront areas.
