A downward trend in the reg

minder from the office of the

Fish Population
Study Showing
Changes In Lake
Predotors Goining In Mum
bers But yellow Perch
Also Show Increase

Results of Wednesdays check of
the fish population of Deep Creek
Lake was showing some changes,
mostly for the better, but the in
crease in the number of Yellow
Perch was causing some questions
to arise, according to a preliminary
report by Harold Elser, fisheries
biologist for the Natural Resources
Institute.
Mr. Elser reported that in the
Hoop Pole area of the lake where
the test was made this year, similar
to the two other previous tests in
1855 and 1859, that there was sure
to be an increase in poundage. All
figures given. however, were only
temporary and are subject to ad
justment.
Total poundage obtained in 1855
was 5,O76 pounds, while in 1859
the pOundage was 5,001 pounds.
This year Mr.. Elser said he was
positive the weight would go above
5000 pounds.
There was a definite increase in
the prcdators, the chain pickerel,
northern pike and walleyes, al
though the other predators, small
mouth and large mouth bass, had
shown a decrease. The biggest wall
eye was gathered in this morning.
Il was 273 inches long end weighed
6 pounds and one ounce.
Mr.. Elser said there wee not
nearly as many volunteer work
ers as previously but that his state
staff was sufficient to do The job,
although he and his workers eX-
pected to remain in the area for
the weekend.
A full report will not be avail
able for possibly one or two months.
The project was carried out
similar to the two previous ones.
Some 60 acres of Hoop Pole cove
in Deep Creek was treated with
powdered derris root at the rate
1875 pounds per acre-foot. Pur-
pose was to determine whether the
management program instituted in
1856 has had any appreciable eff
feet on the population of the fish
and to provide further understand
ing of the geology of the lake.
Assisting Mr.. Elser were Edwin
M. Barry, chief of inland fish man
agement; John Arve, fisheries
biologist, of the state Game and

Boiling Fears
No OR Bill To
Wreck The U.s.

WASHINGTON (UPD- Rep.
Richard Boiling, DINO, fears
that congressional failure to
enact an effective civil rights
bill might lead to race riots
and actually wreck the United
States"
The House Judiciary Commit
tee approved a civil rights bill
last week. It is aimed at end
ing racial discrimination in vot-
ing, education, employment and
unions and in private accom-
modationS such as hotels, res
taurants and amusement
places.
Rep. Jacob K. Javits, R-N.Y.,
said Sunday there was ''every
indication the administration
had abandoned hope of getting
a civil rights bill through the
Senate this year.
Boiling said he believed the
House bills supporters even
tually could get enough votes to
get the measure cleared for
floor action by the House Rules
Committee, of which he is a
member. Committee Chairman
Howard w. Smith, Diva, op.
poses civil rights legislation.
However, Boiling declined to
predict in a local television in
terview when he thought h e
bill would be cleared. He also
conceded there might be some
changes in the measure before
it is passed.
"Ihe failure to pass an ef-
fective civil rights act might
actually wreck the United
States Boiling said. eff there
is not an effective civil rights
act, then the Negro and t h e
other civil rights people in this
country would feel that their
government had let them down.
"They would almost inev.
itably rely on civil disobedi-
ence. Almost inevitably, also,
as they did this, irresponsible
elements, not the responsible
elements in the civil rights
movement, would move in.
