cept lake trout) plus one addition
al fish. This is now in line with the
policy which has been in force for
many years in the Province of AL
berta.
A change which should appeal
to the increasing number of tour
lists visiting the Mountain Parks
before the month of July is the
earlier opening of most rainbow
and cutthroat trout waters this
year. The opening of the season
for these two species in most lakes
of the Mountain Parks was adj
vanced from July / to June Is.
The policy of opening angling
season by water instead of by spe-
cies is this year being inaugurated
in Waterton Lakes National Park.
Consequently some of the waters
are being opened earlier than in
the past giving those anglers who
visit the Parks in May and June a
greater opportunity to indulge in
their favorite pastime. This system
has been in effect in Banff and
Jasper National Parks for some
time.
Nearly 10000 fish were caught
in Canada's mountain national
parks by anglers turning in creel
census reports in 1854.
They reported covering 8,140
/ angling efforts in Waterton Lakes

included rainbow trout, Eastern

TIME MON" and dad" to hundreds
Il of the most gorgeous girls who
ever filled out bathing suit here will
have their usual big unhappy moment
tomorrow.
Says Norman Reed: After the nine
judges reach a decision, I'll announce
the winner But there1l be a lump in
my throat as big as a golfball!"
Says his wife Vivien: "I'll be stand
ing in the wings, probably crying with
mixed emotions-happy for the girl
who wins, but even sorrier for those
who lose"
The otherwise happy occasion is the
selection of Miss Washington of 1855
among nine finalistS. Judging will
begin at 7:3O pm. tomorrow in the
Capitol Theater.
There's a letdown during the three
elimination rounds - especially the
finals" Mr.. Reed explains, 1--WE try
to mold every girl into a potential
winner-and, of course, only one can
be the queen"
Mr.. Reed, program director of
WWDC. has been producer of the
Miss Washington contest since the
radio station took it over in 1912. In
charge Of rehearsals, he guides, ad-
vises, encourages and consoles every
girl who enters. His wife, executive
secretary of the Advertising Club of
Washington, helps out "just for the
fun of it."
Mrs Reed chaperones the contest
ants, helps them dress and select their
wardrobes, measures their curves for
the records and, as she puts it, does
everything from throwing the wolves
