Use of Planes for
 Polar Bear Hunts Posing Problem

WASHINGTON, R-Asst. Sec retary of the Interior Ross Leffler said today the use of airplanes in hunting polar bear at consider able distances from Alaskan shores is posing problems.
 ''The department is seeking ways to provide additional pro- lection if such action is found necessary" Leffler said. He said an act of Congress might be need ed to provide authority for any additional protection,
 The assistant secretary said that during recent months hunters using planes have located polar bears on ice floes in the Arctic Ocean as far as 60 miles from the Alaska shore, and have then land ed on the floes to make kills.
 Since the hunting is far beyond the territorial limits, there is a jurisdictional problem which is complicated by lack of specific legislation and by the practical difficulties of enforcement, Jeff Ter said.
 Meanwhile, the Alaska staff of the Fish and Wildlife service is seeking more information on the distribution and abundance of the polar bear, it's habits and other factors which might be important in the management of the species.

 He shaped a course far south of the Pilgrims track to pick up the trade winds, followed them to the West Indies and dropped Mayflower II into the northerly flowing Gulf Stream. It all paid off handsomely.
 Thousands of eager spectators lined the strand and sand dunes as Mayflower II rounded the tip of Cape Cod, on a fish-hook- shape approach to the harbor.
