Bus Operators Meet
The Executive committee of the
Garrett County School Bus oper-
ators association was before the
board seeking an increase in pay
for the bus operators.
The superintendent explained
this request had been presented
before the State Department of
Education and the increase denied
by it, declaring that the Garrett
County bus operators were on top
of the state formula now as far as
finances. Mr. Hawkins said the bus
operators did receive an increase
in the maintenance factor for own
ers of buses four years old and old

HABITS: Is very shy fish; this
enables it to survive where brook
trout, more readily captured, are
quickly removed from the stream;
a delight to the dry fly angler. 1t
is true the brown trout is canni-
balistic but so also is the brook
trout; many fine trout streams
formerly suitable for brook trout,
have grown through deforestation,
too warm and, now will support
only the brown. Browns are partial
to larger streams, and like plenty
of natural cover
MANAGEMENT: Readily propa-
gated in hatcheries, and many
states rear brown trout to legal
size or larger before liberation. I'M
provement of habitat by providing
more cover, which in turn will fur
nish more food, will increase their
numbers; removal of pollution from
suitable streams will increase
stream mileage. While there is 4
tendency to relax or remove many
legal restrictions on catching warm
water species, it is generally con-
ceded the brown and other trout
should be afforded protection by Il
closed season during at least part
of the spawning period.
VALUE: Furnished a lot of sport
aDJ racraatioo and iS an oxco1lent
food; however in Maryland it is
strictly a game fish and may not
be sold for food purposes, if taken
within the State.
