DOLLY VARDEN TROUT
TRAP EXPERIMENT
BE ATTEMPTED
A three week cruise to
determine whether fish
traps can be successfully
built in Southeastern Alas
ka to catch that pest of the
piscatorial world, the dolly
varden trout, was under
taken recently by the Ran
ger IX, U. S. Forest Service
vessel, says a recent issue
of the Alaska Daily Press
of Juneau.
Carrying Ranger W. A.
Chipperfield and Capt. Geo
Sarvela, the vessel will p;'o
ceed to Sitka and then sail
to Chichagof and Baranof
Islands with Gerald Banta,
who will be foreman in cha
rge of the experiment.
Two streams will be in
vestigated in the vicinity of
Sitkoh bay, one of them
leading from Sitkoh lake,
both these streams are
known to be trout streams,
but it has not been determ
ined whether black spotted
trout are prevalent in their
waters as well as the dolly
varden.
If these or other streams
are found to be almost ex
clusively inhabited by the
dolly varden, the traps may
be put into active use and
if successful, will be extend
ed to other tested streams.
This project, it was an
nounced, has the sanction
of the U. S. Bureau of Fish
cries, which is anxious to
rid Alaska streams of the
dolly varden, and has plac
ed bounties on the fish in
the northern parts of the
Territory.
The dolly varden is a sal
monoid fish (salvelinus mal
ma) frequenting .the Rocky
Mountain slope, resembl
ing the brook trout of East
ern America. It has red
spots on the back and sides,
and preys on salmon eggs.
It is one of the salmon fish
erman’s worst enemies.

roam, be it ever so humble
there’s no place like Reno”.
The day of the big stick
is approaching, not the art
icle that raises constitution
al and political questions,
but the club that swings
over the home plate, some
times cutting a slice from
the afternoon air, again
finding its mark with a re
sounding whack. Pitchers
are the scientists of base
bul1, and is such gat the
diseri mi na ting p: :i ;e that
goes to those1 of scientific at
tainments, but nothing
brings the grandstands
shouting to their feels quite
so effectively as the specta
cular knocking of a homer.
It may not be out of order,
therefore, to recall that mo
mentous summer of 11127,
when Babe Ruth made 60
non stop trips around the
bases. The coming season
will hold its attractions,
but there is no batter in
sight to equal Ruth’s stand
ing as a terror to hurlers,
and to give spectators the
assured pleasure that goes
with a battering sv.ad and a
long uninterrupted sprint.
A plot to kidnap the Dio
nne quintuplets has been
discovered and quashed On
the basis of the unfortunate
Lindbergh deal, the scheme
should have yielded a quar
ter of a million dollars. It
is likely to cost a good deal
of money to keep a family
intact nowadays.
Howard Thurston, the
magician is dead. For for

wonders that left even the
members of his own profes

grooves that are determin
ed by rules beyond our con
trol and we travel in those
grooves until we are weary
of them. There is more
than entertainment in the
efforts of the sleight of
hand man. He prompts us
to that struggle for the im
possible without which ■
there can be no advances, i

Constitutional liberty is
safe so long as the citizen
can look the ruler squarely
in the eye and exercise the
ancient prerogative of
throwing things down
where he pleases and when
he is through with them.
One thing about elections
such as the one held recept

people found it necessary
to pay election bets.
In the far-off but coming
golden age, compromises &
