Silent auction for rescue car in Nevada City The Nevada City Fire Department is asking public cooperation in making donations of furniture, antiques or other interesting items for its "Silent Auction" slated for Dec. 10 in The Armory. Proceeds from the sale will go toward a fund to complete the purchase of a new emergency rescue car. _ "All donations will be gratefully received,"’ say the firemen. Members of the rescue squad will pick them up if the donor will phone the fire department at 265-2351; or items may be brought to the fire sta~tion in the city hall. Income tax exemption receipts will be given. The department asks that furnishings be in good repair. Sheriff Wayne Brown, Undersheriff Frank Gallino and Parsons: will supervise the silent bidding. Gallino and Parsons will share time keeping duties, A loud bong of a gong at 4 p.m. will signal the end of the sale. The firemen invite buyers to come to a ''very spirited competition" and to race the clock and competitive bidders for choice items. Sheriff Brown is contributing a pair of handcuffs (old timers) to the cause. He claims they may be put to use if the excitement of bidding gets the bidders out of hand. 5 Parsons described a silent auction as one in which competitors must keep their eyes alert and roving as they write bids ona sheet provided for the purpose. The top price takes the item at the sound of the gong. "So help the Nevada City Fire Department Rescue Squad which will always be on call to help you. Snow, rain, sleet, fire or flood — they will come to your aid as they have since 1946," is the plea of the firemen in asking for donations of artifacts, antiques, nice pieces of furniture and other useful items, Baldwin low The Nevada County Nugget Wednesday, Sept 27, 1972 3, : Sportsmen proud of many contributions With the second annual observance of Hunting and Fishing Day Saturday (September 23), we sportsmen —3 million of us in California — can reflect proudly on our contributions to fish and wildlife protection, preservation and enhancement. But, more than that, we can take pride ~in our role in making life better for everyone else the other 17 million or so Californians who share in the benefits we fought so long and so hard to achieve. Our license fees, together with money from special taxes on sporting arms and ammunition and fishing tackle, finance a wide variety of conservation efforts on living things from Pismo clams to golden trout. They enable us to patrol 4,200 lakes, 30,000 miles of streams and rivers and 1,100 miles of coastline. They pay the bills for management of more than a million deer, 6 to 10 million quail, 1.5 million pheasants, 18 million doves and about 6 to 9 million waterfowl in season. These. funds help pay for the introduction of new game species such as the woodcock, pick up the tab for fisheries improvement projects such as that at Lake Tahoe, finance the reintroduction of species like the California bighorn sheep. and underwrite the rescue of animals like the tule elk and the sea otter. And we sportsmen — largely in the interest of environmental enhancement rather than in providing more recreational opportunity — pony up our dollars for programs to protect and preserve nongame species such as the desert tortoise, San Francisco garter snake and the California brown pelican. Efforts like the population studies of the mountain lion and the black bear, which provide us with no direct benefit as sportsmen, are possible only because of sportsmen's financial help. Where necessary, we sportsmen have been more than willing to forego what were long considered hunting rights again in the interest of the total environment. We have been willing to live with, for example, the new night hunting law and with it the restrictions on taking what were formerly nonprotected animals, Our contribution to the economy of the state is staggering. Our 2.3 million sport fishermen spend $10 million each year Vietnam era servicemen face some deadlines men's Group Life Insurance Vietnam Era servicemen reon fishing licenses alone and another $435,000,000 through. the direct purchase of gear, bait and the amenities of travel, food and lodging. Sport fishing in California generates an estimated $40 million a year in salaries and wages. The more than three-quarters of a million California hunters last year bought $4,136,000 worth of licenses and tags, then spent $65 million more to outfit themselves and take part in wildlife activities. _ Then there are the recreational opportunities and the resulting business revenues our facilities and the facilities we operate for federal agencies provide for the public generally. These areas — purchased and operated with sportsmen's dollars — provide room for activities such as bird watching, nature study, hiking, and photography, none of which is related to hunting or fishing. More important than any of these, sportsmen's dollars provide, through fish and wildlife preservation and enhancement, the barometer by whick man can monitor the total environment. Through the distress of fish and wildlife populations, we can identify danger signals for man himself. ‘ The movement to clean up Los Angeles harbor, for example, did not come as a result of man's outrage with the discoloration of the water or the floating sewage or the odor the polluted water produced. The movement came about because we saw what was happening to the fish and blew the whistle on the responsible authorities. In recognition of the principle that the condition of fish and wildlife is truly an environmental barometer, biologists and wildlife managers are being involved increasingly in planning that might otherwise produce detrimental effects on the environment. The programs our dollars support, therefore, are producing an impact on matters touching the lives of all Californians — subdivision development, highway construction, harbor improvement, sewage disposal, forest practices, agriculture and recreation, to name a few. Together we demanded and obtained professional fish and wildlife management. Let us now rededicate ourselves to the principles that not only saved fish and wildlife but helped make life a bit more liveable for all of us.
