CHAMP BEAR HILLER
Prom what the Fairbanks News
Miner reports on a recent bear
killing story a new Alaska cham
pion makes her bow.
Says the News Miner:
Anyone wanting expert in
struction in bear hunting should
see Mrs. George Blondeau, who
is spending the summer at Cen
tral roadhouse in the Circle dis
trict. She became the premier
bear hunter of the Interior last
Saturday when she killed three
bears out of a band of five that
were raiding a meat cache and
knocked over the fourth with a
rifle builet.
When she saw the bears at
tempting to get at the meat Mrs.
Blondeau opened fire, getting
two cubs and a grown animal
with the first salvo. Three of the
bears were blacks and two were
brown. One of the big browns
was sent to the ground but escap
ed after the camp pet, a tooth
less old dog^ had attacked him.

SEA LIONS WRONGFULLY I
ACCUSED SAYS REPORT !
Commercial fishing interests
have for a long time denounced
the colonies of sea lions which exist
on the coast of Southern California
claiming that they are very des
tructive to fish and are injuring
fisheries interests. An investigation
!of this claim has been made by au
thority of the California division of
fish and game and it has been
found that the charges against the
|sea lions the greatly exaggerated.
Two extensive counts were made
of the sea lions on the California
j coast, as well as a survey of their
habits and food requirements. It
was found that there are about
j 6,000 sea lions of two species on the
I entire coast of California between
; Oregon and Mexico.
While fishermen claim that sea
lions consume about 50 pounds of
fish each day, records of feeding
these animals in captivity indicate
that they eat from eight to 16
pounds a day. It is also found that
most of the fish they consume are
not of the more desirable species
but consist chiefly of so-called
rough fish of little commercial
value.
They also feed upon other organ
isms that are of no value and some
!of which are injurious to fish, and
it appears from the investigation
that the sea lions may be of more
benefit to the fisheries interests
than otherwise.
Reports and records compiled for
a period of years indicate that the
colonies of sea lions are growing
smaller in numbers annually.
From observations made thru
out the Hot Springs district the
gold ouput will be at least
| double that of last season. There
has been no lack of water this
I year. The American creek dredge
jis running steadily now.
