Action Spurred by
Hovey Lake Incident
Purdue, IU Staffs Asked for Data On the Effect of DDT on Fish, Game
By MARC G. WAGGENER What can Hoosier anglers and
ana's limited supply of fish, other war-born insecticides? Alarmed
Hudson lake after a plane had been employed to spray a , conservationists squared away for
to get rid of when first reports indicated that chemical sprayed on cornfields in the vicinity of Hovey lake might have been’ responsible for the death of scores of fish there. Investigation of the Hovey lake episode is still under way in an effort to determine positively whether a sufficient amount of the oil-based chemical used to
prevent insect damage to the: corn could have been washed into] | the lake by subsequent rains to
kill the fish.
Pollution Board Acts
Following its investigation of} |
the fish killing at H the state Stream Pollu
on Lake, on Con-
trol Board adopted a resolution| | calling attention to the need for| |
adequate control of use of DDT solutions. The resolution also proposed, “that the use of sprays and dusts for mosquito and other insect control and for weed control which might pessibly cause pollution of the state’s waters should be done only after approval by the Stream Pollution Control Board through its Technical Secretary.” The Board further resolved, “that any firm, person or corpofation wanting to do spraying or dusting that might cause pollution of state waters, should first contact the Stream Pollution Control Board and get the necessary data and benefit by the experience of the Board.”
Scientists to Aid
Scientists of Indiana and Purdue Universities, engaged in cooperative research projects with the fish and game division, have been asked to assemble data on the effect of DDT and similar sprays and dusts on fish and wildlife, Indiana University staff members making studies of fish and fishing will compile the .data as regards the effect of such sprays and dusts on fish while Purdue workers will investigate the possible effects on birds and wildlife. This data and other information will form the basis of a control law to be submitted for entment by the General Assembly January.
Stream Conditions
Hoosier anglers might as well attend that family reunion this week-end instead of heading out for their fishing place. Reports of Conservation officers from over the state indicate that game fish
are not hitting and that catches|
during the week have been extremely light. One Gibson County party of six spent 24 hours on the creek and came home with two small catfish. Some the northern lakes report only fair fishing and some silver bass and channel cats have been taken this week at Lake Freeman and Shafer. Local, streams are milky to clear but fishing during the week has been poor. Geist Lake has produced a few small catches of crappies and bluegills with anglers using minnows, flies and plugs. Some bass have been taken from
several weeks ago when a quantity of fish died in

Attendance will be limited to members of the State Conservation Advigory Committee, the county conservation representative or alternate and one invited guest. Chief interest will center around the session on the opening night when reports on conservation activities will be heard and the advisory committee will hold its quarterly meeting. Prospective legislation will come in for a share of attention. Flying Fire Fighters Hoosier pilots and airport managers are again being enrolled as volunteer forest fire detectors by forestry officials as they tighten up their efforts to prevent and minimize damage to timber from fall fires. Pilots spotting fires are to report to the nearest airport which in turn will contact the for-

When Joe hung up his glove, he left behind him a major league hitting mark of 356 for 1330 games and a stolen base figure of 202, with 41 in 1911. He was called “Shoeless Joe” because he once played the outfield without shoes in the minors because of a sore heel. After the 1919 scandal broke, a traditional story had a youngster tugging at his sleeve, begging Jackson to “say it ain't so, Joe.” And Joe, to this day, denies he did anything wrong in the series with Cincinnati. “The Supreme Being is to be my judge and no man on carth can truthfully say I did not play tly and fairly and
