NJ. S. U. Bond Inst1ucts on Catching
Eagles. Hopes MdnY Will Pluck
Feathers for Uniform Hedddresses

To catch an eagle, dig a hole
in the ground, climb in and
put a stick across the top with
a rabbit tied to it, and when
the eagle swoops down to grab
the rabbit, you grab the eagle
by the legs.
This bit of reputed Indian
lore was passed on today by
the Montana State University
band which is seeking genuine
eagle feathers for headdresses
for its authentic Indian buck
skin costumes now being made
by Montana Indian craftsmen.
To complete the process after
you have caught the eagle, the
band members ask that you
pluck it's tail feathers and
send them to the Montana U
band at Missoula. This can be
accomplished, they said, with
out major damage to the eagle
or rabbit and then you are
ready for the next eagle.

In an extensive series OF
field and laboratory tests made
last year in South Dakota,

compared with a number OF
other new insect toxicants. The
report says:
1.-The most promising mater

hydrocarbon known as Chlor-
dane. In sixteen tests in
which Chlordane was applied
at the rate of one pound per
acre the average "a hour NOR

, The band reported that each
eagle will produce about four
or five good feathers, and
since abut 80 are needed for
each headdress and since the
first IS costumes are almost
ready, the need Is urgent. The
bandsmen brought all this up
in a plea to anyone willing to
contribute real eagle feathers
to the band.
Last fall Montana hunters
contributed many score of deer
hides, enabling work to go
ahead on enough costumes to
outfit a considerable portion
of the band, some hides coming
as far as New York state when
word of the project got around.
