“Cap” Is a navigation authority
but is that familiar with the
Great Lakes he could go around
them by ear.
In 1942 the salty captain acted |
as navigator aboard Charley Sor

she not only won the Chicago-
Mackinac race but "Cap'' picked
a course that resulted in the fast- j
est time made in the event in 30-
»ome years.
"Toot" Gmriner, skipper of the
champion Apache, describes
Spookie' “She is somewhat like
a N. Y. 32. hut faster ’’

Dodger Fans
Cooling Off
Bleacherites and grand stand
managers at Brooklyn's Ebbcts
Field haven't offered much ad
vice to pilot Loo Durochcr since
his alleged assault on a critical
fan. who mysteriously suffered a
broken jaw.
The bravest wag to be heard
since the "beating up" incident
was one who chanted in a clear
voice "bust his jaw, Leo—bust his
jaw. ' when fiery Leo rushed out
Wednesday night to see if pitcher
Hal Gregg needed relief.

The 1945 Goodfellows city high

be held Saturday, Nov. 24, at

The date was the only one left
for the prep classic, since the

and charity game officials were
reluctant to select a December
date.
The 1945 game will be the

Dam Building Program
Perils State Fishing
Sportsmen’s organizations are wondering today if the state con
servation commission acted in the best interest of the public in
ordering the transfer of 500 acres of state-owned land near Rogers
City to the Presque lie County Electric Co-operative Association
for the purpose of building a new dam on the Black River.
The building of dams on
streams, whether it he on Michi
gan waters or any other rivers
in the country, has long been a
sour note with real conserva
tionists.
Sportsmen are well acquainted
with the lures held before the
public of a large and presumably
beautiful lake full of fish for the
fishermen and providing facilities
for bathing, boating, picknicking
and other outdoor recreation. But
is this true?
How about the silt deposited
annually on the bottom of the
newly created artificial lakes
which smothers out all acquatic
vegetation? Sportsmen know too
well that as vegetation finally
disappears, fish populations fall
off rapidly and at last disappears.
KILLS FISH LIFE
When both vegetation and fish
life have gone, the natural foods
sought by migratory waterfowl
ino longer invite their presence,
i Other forms of recreation such
as bathing and boating are ren
dered uninviting by a lake, the
shore and bottom of which are
lined with thick slippery coating
of mud.
Fish experts claim that no
amount of local restocking will
maintain a fish population in
waters thus devoid of essential
food and environmental conditions.
Many conservationists know
that the lowering of the lake
levels draws the waters away
(from the normal shoreline, leav
ing a broad expanse of mud-cov
ered beach between the dry land
and the lake waters. Any one
who has ever tried to land a
picnic party on such a shore can
testify to its lack of recreational
qualifications.
Every one agrees that the sec
ond largest industry In Michigan
is the resort and tourist business.
That is because Michigan is the
greatest outdoor state in the coun

ran the mile and a sixteenth in
146.
Detroit’s thirteenth season since
the sport was legalized here got
away to an exciting start when
Cloudy Weather and Quarto ran
a dead heat in the first. This re
sulted in a double payoff in the
Daily Double. The 2,392 fans who
coupled Quarto with Rusty Gold
collected $6.00 while the 1.542
who had picked Cloudy Weather
picked up $9.30 each.
Brooks and Claggett each had
two winners to divide riding hon
ors for the day.
The crowd, which was 4 265
under that of opening day last
year, bet $575,115. This was a de
cline of $28,277 compared to last
year. The state's share for the
day was $30,009.20.

try. It has an abundance of
streams and lakes.
How long will Michigan con
tinue to lead the parade if this
dam and a series of others now
being planned are permitted?
In the case of the Black River
we believe that the conservation
commission were justified in
transferring the land to the power
company because this particular
section of the river has not and
never has been a good fishing
stream. Such streams are few
and far between in this state and
future decisions on power dams
should be carefully studied.
The commission has demanded
that the power company maintain
a certain flow of water over the
dam: that the public will be
assured of access to the stream
above and below the dam for
several miles and other reserva
tions.
The Presque lie Sportsmen's
Club in whose bailiwick the dam
is to be constructed has also
voted approval of the transfer.
WILL HELP FARMER
In favor of the dam is the fact
that it will provide electric serv
ice to 15,000 people in that com
munity, adding much to their
enjoyment and living conditions.
It is certain that much unrest
in the Black River case could
have been avoided had the public
been acquainted with the facts.
As a matter of fact that was
the purpose of a report adopted
by the Michigan Outdpor Writers
at its annual meeting only a few
weeks ago asking the conserva
tion commission for a 60-day
waiting period plus a public hear
ing when the state is involved in
the transfer of land for the build
ing of a dam.
The Michigan United Conserva
tion Clubs adopted a similar reso
lution at its convention in Lansing
only last week.

Eddie Kozole, who was the best of the amateur lightweights

the Pacific. He was a technician, fifth grade. Eddie injured his
thumb boxing in the army and will be unable to resume his ring
career until it heals. His brother, Rudy, leaves shortly for the
