Northern Pike Are
Released In Lake

A four-tank fish truck was sched-
uled to arrive at Deep Greek early
this week with a load of 1000
pounds of. northern pike brood
fish from st. Claire, Canada
The State Game and Inland Fish
Commission has purchased the fish
for stocking in impeachment in its
effort to provide better fishing con-
ditions and also in an effort to
cut down on the number of yellow
perch. The northern pike is known
as great fish and if the expert
ment works out on the lake, will
become one of the finest fishing
areas in the east, according to a
number of anglers.
Fish Were Released
William E. Hartman, regional fish
culturist, said that four hundred
adult fish we're released in the lake
April 4 and ), and ranged in size
from 16 to 80 inches, averaging
about 20 inches.
He said the additional stocking
of Northern Pike was a continu-
alton of the program developed
for the lake after the Hooppole
cove study several years ago TO
introduce cool-water prcdator spe-
cics in an effort to control the
ovcr-abundant yellow perch popu-
lationS.
He said plans also we're under
way to stock Wallcyc, as was done
in previous years. He pointed out
that it was not to be expected that
these comparatively small plant
ings would do the job alone, but
we're the seed from which natural
populations would develop. He
termed Wallcye and Northern
Pike as "voracious prcdators,'
would give the angler plenty Of
sport and we're fine for eating.
He also indicated that both spe-
cics spawned carly in the spring
the same time as do yellow perch
and that might be an important
factor in controlling. the yellow
perch more effectively than bass
apparently have been able TO do
Bass spawn much later and require
water temperatures of IS TO 20 de-
grces.
Mr.. Hartman sad that in deter
mining the success of these plant
ingS the fishermen could be of
valuable assistance to the game
commission. The commission is in
tcrested in knowing the survival
of planted fish as we'll as repro
ductivc or spawning success.
Fishermen will be encouraged to
report their catches, small as well
as large, the area in which the
fish were taken, and other peril
nent information. District Game
WardcnS Brown, Friend and Rugc,
or Mr. Hartman at the Bear Greek
Hatchery, or Cecil Edwards, as
sistant fish culturist, at McHcnry,
will accept the reports gladly, Mi.
Hartman said.

Plan Additional
Construction OF
School Facilities
Only Drawback Is Sutisfuc-
tory Financing Problems

Additional school building con-
struction in the county within the
next few years received favorable
consideration at a meeting of the
Board of Education on Tuesday,
which was attended by all mem
bers.
One construction project is al
ready definite, the new band room
for Southern High school, which
the Board hopes to have completed
for use by the time school opens
in September. Other improvements
are in the proposal stage.
The board approved architects
plans for the new band room and
it was hoped the plans would be
offered for bids in approximately
three weeks. This project also
calls for an enclosed corridor cx-
tending from the main building to
the present shop buildings.
Other proposed building i'm.
provements for 1858 SO include:
A general education room with
stage, toilets, storage room and
floor area of SO by so for the
Center Street school.
A library room for KitzmilleI
school,
Additional classroom. library
small general education room,
storage and toilet facilities for the
Loeb Lynn School.
Willard L. Hawkins, county
superintendent of schools, said
the estimated cost of the three
projects would be in the neighbour
hood of 100000. Mr.. Hawkins told
The Board that over 100000 re-
manned in the school construction
fund for use in the county which
could be borrowed and paid back
at a low rate of interest over a
period of fifteen years. He also re-
ported that payment on present
school bonds was being made at
the rate of about Sl60O0O annual
ly.
Tho board also considered the
need for an additional room at the
Yoder school due 10 increased en-
rollment there.
He said the Board considered ia
vOrably all of these projects. as
soon as suitable financing can be
arranged,
The Swan Meadow building COM
mittee group was making salts
factory progress in its plan to
build for that community a new
tWo-roOm school building. Con-
struction is being done by a group
of people of the community.
Following adjournment the
Board members inspected the work
being done on the Annex building
and made a trip to Crcllin to in
spect the condition of the Crcllin
school.
Reports on Teacher Needs
Mr.. Hawkins reported that two
designations due to retirement and
one for other causes were the only
ones received to date and said he
felt the number of vacancies
would not be large He said no one
would be employed in the school
system in the future who did not
hold college degree, unless on a
temporary or emergency basis. He
said he felt all vacancies could be
filled with teachers with full ccrti-
fication.
The Board approved the low
bid for a new car for the Board,
submitted by Sharps Motor com
pany, in amount of 81 ,48S
Cecil Snyder was approved as a
substitute bus driver for Harold

that time overwhelmingly concurr-
ed with the bishops in a separate
resolution urging Episcopalians to
"face seriously their obligation to
conform to Federal and Supreme
Court orders in regard to giving
to all students equal access to our
public schools"
The pastoral letter urged all
Christians to "meet and know anG
listen to your brethren Of other
races and groups" In this con-
nection it deplored what it de-
scribed as the breakdown of COM
munication between persons with
differing views on race and "some-
times even between clergy and
people"
1t warned against permitting
motion to overrun reason. The let
ter said:
Indeed, in some communities
unity is an impossibility because
people have in their emotional
blocs lost the ability to communi-
cate one with, another. If we build
on emotion, the end is conflict.
There is only way for free
men to overcome conflict, and that
is by talking together in reason
able self-control and thus finding
a third way which will lead to
peace.
"We ask everyone to recognize
that reason and not emotion will
unite our torn communities, that
discussion must be carried on by
all without any note of superior
! ity or servility, and that when we
confront one another, we are to do
so in a brotherly fashion"
! The pastoral letter was drawn
up by a committee headed by
the Right Rev. Angus Dun, Bish-
op of Washington, D. C. Commit
tee members were Bishop Emerich

bly, to make its policies conform.
In previous years the United
States has abstained from vot-
ing on similar resolutions. This
years motion, it was authorita-
lively reported, was watered down
to get United States approval.
An early draft contained direct
appeal to South Africa to "take
appropriate measures to assure
equality to all racial groups" This
was later deleted.
Mr.. Harrison, apparently al
luding to this, said the problem
should be approached "in a spirit
of cooperation rather than through
condemnation.
Diplomats close to the issue cred
tied Mr.. Harrison personally with
having brought about the changes
in language that permitted the
United States to endorse the reso-
luton.
Meanwhile delegates to the AS
sembly's Trusteeship Committee
continued to attack South Africa
on another matter--its claim to
jurisdiction over neighboring
South-West Africa.
Southwest Africa, a former
German colony, has been admin
istered by South Africa under
League of Nations mandate. The
Government has spurned requests
that it relinquish the territory to
United Nations trusteeship.
A three-nation good offices COM
mittee has suggested partitioning
South-West Africa, giving the SOU
thern region to South Africa and
placing the northern area under
trusteeship. This proposal has
been almost unanimously opposed
by speakers in t he Trusteeship
Committee.

Mr.. Harrison conceded that the
United States was suffering its
own racial difficulties.
"We are actively engaged in the
complex process of eliminating
racial segregation and we are
learning that the adjustments are
difficult" he said. "They some.
