A plant of 5,350 seven-inch yearlings has just been made in the lake, following up a similar planting of 9,103 last November. These trout were raised at Crystal Lake Hatchery, Cassel. They were reared from eggs taken from trout in Pine Creek, their. lone spawning tributary. _ Last year the Wildlifé Conservation Board allocated $26,000 for a weir and egg collecting station which was built at the mouth of Pine Creek.

The purpose of the 10-weex. tour. of the Far East was two-fold — entertain servicemen and further President Eisenhower's person-to-person program. The audiences and sponsors rated the. show as a tremendous success_on both counts. “The show did not preach Americanism or American power,” Bartlett observed. “Instead, it showed American progress to Asians in terms that were easy for them to digest. “The members of the troupe are all outstanding athletes and fine American youths. The show was a demonstration of American leadership in a peacetime recreational field — not only in athletics, but. in the mechanical. and engineering leadership of American boats and: motors.” The ‘skiers gave shows at most of the service bases in the Far East. Between performances, the troupe taught more ‘than a thousand servicemen to ski with 22 horsepower Mereurys and helped organize. waterski . clubs. The Gis really appreciated a show from home, Bartlett said. and were eager to try .water. skiing. At each site the troupe built a regulation waterski jump, which they left behind for the servicemen to use, comebatk trail by the Department’. “If this country reaches the . a truck ride of 2 “+ Plot} bit they. won't 4 ocean JUDI UNRUH dons her crash diving under the hoor of her MG racer for a few last-minute adjustments before the Stockton Lions Club Sports Car;Races at Stockton Field, April 18-19, The MG Marque has taken checkered flag at numerous races for many t Started April 14 An eight-year program designed to shed somé light on what happens to king salmon fry after they hatch from their eggs began last Tuesday at Coleman in og ak OPAL ate se On that day a truck loaded with approximately 40,000 marked ‘fingerlings moved: down Highway 99 toa site near Rio Vista on the Sacramento River, about 250 miles .away.

Next year they hope to release twice that number. During the course of thé project, technicians will try to devise a means of catching the fry before they swim out the Golden Gate.
