DUCK SEASON OPENS
WITH MOST HUNTERS
BAGGING SOMETHING
The duck season opened yesterday
noon with 136 bangs in the first
five minutes in their area’s favor
ite hunting area.
Urban (Petel Nelson, Federal
Aid biologist working with the Fish
and Wildlife Service, was out for
birds himself, and counted the
shots in the Duck Creek-Salmon
Creek-Mendenhall Flats area.
He and others observed that al
most everyone had at least one
duck, most hunters bagging one or
two more than that.
‘‘We're getting a lot of pintails
and widgeon, besides local mal
lards,” Nelson said.
‘‘This indicates a good flight from
the north.
“It looks like a successful hatch
this year, as there are no old birds.
This applies to both migratory wat- I
erfowl and grouse and ptarmigan.”
The good hatch probably is because
we had a dry year with no floods.”
One opening-day violation was!
prosecuted through the U. S. Com
misioner’s court this morning. On
a FWS charge of hunting ducks
without a duck stamp, Richard
Schultz was fined $25 by Commis
sioner Gordon Gray.
Duck stamps are available at the
postoffice.

Additional Blessings
on the People's Ticket
We believe everyone knows that the people ol Juneau have received a dollar's worth
of service for each dollar paid to the city.
And with other revenue now taking care of the bonded indebtedness of the city it ap
pears that even with the increased operating cost of city departments and support of
schools it should now be possible to reduce the millage rate on personal and real proper
ties and still maintain the present efficient operation of the city departments.
We have been planning negotiations for the purchase of the Juneau Water Company's
holdings in Juneau, which if consummated will in time be of great value.
We have puchased for the City Dock (payable from City Dock's earnings) the Juneau
Lumber Mills' large warehouse and very valuable dock frontage so that the city now owns
enough waterfront to give Juneau an open port, open to any ship, any size - the future
value of which cannot be estimated.
We pledge ourselves to an impartial, efficient and business like administration.
