Calendar In the present issue Of
Sports Illustrated. It is to the eff
feet that the scarcity Of insects
and resulting high trout mortal
Iity in Montana's Yellowstone
River is now conclusively linked
to spraying of forests. Spraying
will be continued next summer
lin other Montana watersheds
and sportsmen are alarmed as
to the effect on trout waters.
Unfortunately when spraying
has to be resoited to in order to
clean out pests harming valuable
timber, all insect life suffers.
Natures balance is upset and
the suffering is spread down the
line. Birds which escape the
effects of the poison can fly
elsewhere for their food, but the
trout must stay put and starve.

One Of the most popular dis
plays was that of the New York

had set up a row Of targets in
an enclosure and for fee of rs
cents gave embryo archers a try
out. Long lines were waiting
their turn. and instructors were
busy. We saw some weird
archery displayed. but everyone
seemed to be having a wonderful

who must have shaded us by a
