Noisy Affair

CHAMPAIGN, Ill. IA radio
station and residents of two Illi-
nois cities have ended novel
campaign to get rid of starlings
and are hoping the experiment in
bird pest control was successful.
For four days this week, in 15-
minute programs, the radio station
broadcast the distress call of the
startling. Preceding the recording
were a few minutes of recorded
selected noises, gun shots, bomb
explosions and miscellaneous pops
and bangs. They were described as
the "awfu.lest sound you ever
heard"
Radios throughout the twin cities
of Champaign -Urbana, home of the
University of Illinois, were turned
on full blast during the broadcasts.
Many persons placed portable ra-
dos in yards or open windows.
Motorists, joining in the commu-
nifty project to rid the cities of the
birds, parked under trees in which
hundreds of the starlings roasted,
and turned on car radio sets. Some
political candidates volunteered
loud-speaker trucks.
The recorded starting distress
call, described as sounding like
'eeeeek, eeeeek, eeeeeel," was OBJ
tanned in cooperation with police
and the University of Illinois.
The police captured a Starring
which was no problem because of
the thousands in the cities. The
university's Electrical Engineering
School strung the bird up by the
heels, then cut a tape of its dis
tress call.
Larry Stewart, manager of radio
station WDWS. which made the
broadcasts, said residents reported
good results. But, he added, he
didn't know where the departing
birds went.
We're keeping the distress cal
on file in case they come back"
he said.
