Carruth is not the only . poet, or simple nature lover for that matter, to be carried away by the beauty and mystery of wild geese in flight. However biologists of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service have gone beyond wonder and awe and have plotted wildfow1 migrations. Through years of observation they have learned where these birds spend the winter and where they nest andhatch their young. Using this knowledge, they have set up a network of refuges along the traditional flyways and are protecting, through outright purchase in many cases, thousands of acres of nesting grounds in Canada. W ithout this protection wild ducks and geese might long since have vanished fromthe American scene. Strangely enough, it is the hunters of ducks and geese who, through their purchase of duck stamps, have financed this work, an idea of the late cartoonist and conservationist, "Ding" Darling. Those who shoot the wildfowl have made it possible for others of us who now hunt only with a camera to thrill to the sound of distant honking and the sight of winged Vs against the sky. Some of those new to Our part of the state are not aware that, within easy driving distance, there are governinent game refuges and other seasonally inundated areas where wildfowl by the thousands are present during the migratory seasons. Sacramento Wildlife Refuge, on U.S. 99W ‘between Williams and Willows, has many ponds accessible by gravel road, with places to stop and watch the coming and going of ducks and geese. There is a state game refuge along Highway 20 just east of Williams, and another a few miles north of Sutter Buttes. One of our favorite areas for watching wildfow] isnearer home. Although unprotected, it has yielded the most thrilling sights and sounds of the great migration that we have ever witnessed. It is a shallow but extensive body of water created primarily by the discharge of floodwaters from the Sacramento River into

They went big for Joe Shell. They appear to be going big for Goldwater. I don't think the American people want the ultra-conservatism of the handsome Senator from Arizona, And I don't think he's going to get the nod for the nomination, He'll wind up happy to settle for the VP second spot. My choice would be governor Scranton of Pennsylvania. He has done well with his state and could come into the race lacking the blemishes of Goldwater, Nixon or Rockefeller. In Mr. Johnson the Democrats have the shrewdest politician of all time. He is making Roosevelt look like a Boy Scout. I think the Democratic VP nominee is going to be a member of the Kennedy clan. Either Sargent Shriver or Bobbie Kennedy. Johnson can hardly ignore the current emotional sympathy for the Kennedys, Johnson well knows that without the Kennedys he wouldn't be where he is, and Kennedy would never have been President without Johnson. The Saturday Ev ening Post believes that there is only one man that can defeat Johnson in this election, That is Johnson himself, In the local race for State Senator I cannot see the knowledgeable voters of either. party not voting for Senator Paul Lunardi. Lunardi has been tested in Sacramento and has proven himself to be a real friend of all Nevada County, When the $65 million NID bond project almost stumbled, it Was he, Paul Lunardi, with hours and hours of hard work and political knowhow that caused enabling legislation to be passed and this tremendous project to become a job providing Nevada County reality. Also due to Lunardi there will be recreational advantages near the lakes constructed for the benefit of all. It was Paul Lunardi who stayed patiently with the Malakoff State Park Project. It is now part of California's State Park master plan. When this great Park becomes an actuality, it will mean a minimum of 400,000 tourists a year through Nevada City and Grass Valley. As I said politics is the most fascinating game in the world, In 1964 1 am a political loner. ° NU NEWS John Fraczek New President (Continued from Page 15) president, and Jill Thompsen as. secretary.
