r r 1 1 Hunting Regulations Adopted: The North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission has approved the 1970-71 hunting and trapping regulations. ' The statewide rabbit season was shortened by two weeks as a result of widespread suggestions at the public hearings held in May. At the hearings, many hunters requested that the rabbit season be cut short because pregnant rabbits wet oc casionally being taken late in the season. The new season for rabbits will be November 14 to February 13. "This is a good example of how hunters can help the Wildlife Commission and also get regulations passed that they feel are warranted," said Frank Barick, Chief of the Division of Game. "The widespread reports from the hunters that rabbits with young were occasionally being killed aids bur biologists in recommending season dates. As a result of the hunters' concern, we have changed the season V dates." Comments from hunters at the public hearings favoring a' shorter rabbit season ran roughly 7-1 in suoDort of a 'shorter season. Regulations concerning bear also generated much heat at the public hearings, with hunters expressing both opinions for longer and shorter seasons. The bear is in danger in much of the state, and the Commission voted for the split shorter seasons of October 12 to November 21 and December 25 to January 2 with some counties being closed entirely. In the east, Dare County was added to six other counties closed to bear hunting because of reduced populations. They are Chowan, Gates, Hertford, . Pasquotank, Perquimans and Tyrrell. In other action, the Com mission approved the proposal to allow hunting when snow covers the ground for all species except' the wild turkey. The program for' spring gobbler hunts - in effect for the second year - was also upheld, and even expanded slightly as three counties, Vance, tranklin and Warren, were ILmm'!. HtlnftAM .ansnM m UC1CKU it win uic iruim OVOOUII 111 the Piedmont counties (December 19 to February 13) and added to the spring season (April 12 to May 1) in the eastern counties. There is no wild turkey season in the west. . The i Commission declined a proposal to shorten the quail season by a week in order to have several small game seasons opening on the same Saturday before Thanksgiving. Therefore, the quail season will be from November 14 to February 27. Likewise, the squirrel season will remain the same as last season, opening October 12 and dosing January 2, with local exceptions. The : raccoon and grouse seasons will open October 12 and last until February 27 with local sxceptions. 'iThe delayed starting time noon) on the first two days of the either sex deer seasons was dropped because the regulations jentrapped hunters who did not 'intend to violate. r "Basically, : the delayed 'starting time was designed to 'prevent killing too many does, and also to promote safety," said 'Barick, "but it was unpopular, so we dropped it." I On game lands and management areas, the 'proposals to drop Irritating or jineffective regulations were' upheld, except that the regulations- regarding . the handling and discharge of 3rearms were retained because hunters at the public hearings 'asked that these restrictions remain in effect. I The new regulations will be 'published in detail in the familiar aoklet form on July 15th, and iese regulations will be ivallable where you buy your license.

Fish and Wildlife Service know that it would like an increase this season in the limit on geese from one to two per day. Also, Turner Battle, Executive Director of the N. C. Wildlife Federation, appeared before the Commission and told of the spread of Eurasian water milfoil from Currituck Sound into Albemarle Sound, East Lake, and the Alligator River. The Commission will hear a report on milfoil from the Division of Inland Fisheries at the next monthly meeting. Harry Cornell, Chief of the Division of Inland Fisheries, indicated that treatment to rid the area of milfoil was difficult, very ex pensive, and also ineffective for more than two to three years Commissioner Orville Woodhouse questioned the wisdom of even attempting to fight milfoil, particularly in Currituck Sound. "We've had more ducks and better fishing since the weed took over," said Woodhouse. Ict'A&O BY BOB BREWSTER OmUr Mftor, THINK BIG Why not start the new fish ing season by deciding that , this is the year to catch a fish big enough to make the record books? Almost all state conservation departments record large fish taken from a state's waters. Eligible species include almost every fish in the United States, and how you catch the fish isn't important as long as it was by a legal sport fishing method. How do you go about find ing and catching a trophy fish? Well, the angling authorities at Mercury outboards suggest that there are proven techni ques for locating big fish, methods followed by expert anglers. An important first step Is to decide which record you want to break. Study information about your state's present record catches, and decide which fish you i n t e n d to pursue. Then concentrate all your efforts toward catching that, kind of nsh. Read all avail able material about your quar ry. Visit state fishery biologists and learn what they know about your fish, and where the best angling might be found. Next, narrow the number of places you intend to fish to several promising bodies of water. Limit all fishing to those places which are the most likely spots for big fish. Study each lake or stream keeping in mind the things you've learned from prior reading and discussion. As tor fishing methods, try everything! Record - breaking fish from one mid-west state last year were taken by a number of techniques includ ing lures, live bait, fly rods and bait casting equipment. Of course, be familiar with your state's requirements for having a fish checked for pos sible entry In the record book. One precaution from the boys at mercury: dont clean the fish until Its weight has been verified. The rewards for catching a record-size fish aren't much beyond personal satisfaction, admiration from othefanglers, and expertise gained as a re sult of your effort. . The big reward is the fun you had going fishing. PESTICIDKS A FOOD Agriculture Committee chair man W. R. Poage, (D-Tex) has sponsored a bill to ban the im portation of foods treated with pesticides res triced in the United States. It would protect consumers from possible health dangers and eliminate unfair competition from abroad.

In introducing the "Speedy Trial Act of 1970," I recognize that preventive detention, which I abhor, is a reaction to the steadily worsening ability of our criminal justice system to cope with the demands placed upon it in the modern era. Greater numbers of defendants, greater rates of crime, longer delays in trial and appeal, assemblyline justice, inadequate staffing of courts and supporting personnel, and a tragic and disgraceful corrections systems- these are among the serious difficulties which beset our. criminal justice system. In my judgment, however, preventive detention will not cure the ms besetting our judicial system. What it will do is paper over the decay of the courts, and hide ills which must be remedied. It will enable us to operate much as we have in the past, because the fruits of this crisis will be hidden from our eyes. Defendants will languish unseen in jails awaiting trials that will be ever longer in coming if we continue our failure to face the true problems and to propose serious means to solve them. If we adopt preventive detention as the panacea, I fear we will have yet another excuse to ignore the hard work that must be done to reform our courts. All the manifestations of our failures - delayed trials, the pretrial crime those delays fost er, injustice to citizens, and disresnect of the law - will be hidden from vlew What we must face is the fact that our criminal justice system is breaking down. In my judgment, this breakdown will get worse if we institute new repressive devices which do violence to constitutional principles and which will eventually burden the system even more. Instead, we should do what is constitutionally required. We must implement the Sixth Amendment right to a speedy TV ON JULY 6th, 7th and 8th the First National Conference on "Film and Television for Children" will be held in New York at the Commodo Hotel. "Captain Kangaroo" (Bob Keeshan), Fred Rogers of "Mr. Rogers Neighborhood" and Joan Cooney of "Sesame Street" will be there. ON JULY the 5th The U.S. Women's Golf Championship will be telecast from Muskogee, Oklahoma by ABC. THE SOUTH CAROLINA ETV station has won numerous awards for its work in this field. The latest is the regional in Emmy competition for its "Job Man Caravan." This pro gram la aimed mainly at the black listeners and besides featuring music It lists avail able Jobs around the state. The result has been new joba for many of the unemployed. A Get yourself a RUST-BUSTER! Mors affordable than rust because it won't need paint ing.

Hiona 426-7541 trial - a right thus far denied to society and the defendant - and make that Amendment's guarantee a reality after all these years. My bill would require each Federal district court to set trials within 60 days of the date of an indictment or information. Delays In trial would be per mitted only when required by other proceedings involving the defendant or those absolutely necessary for the holding of a fair trial. It would bar delays caused by inadequate judicial resources, and it would strongly discourage procrastination by counsel. My bill also requires each district court to establish plans for the implementation of the speedy trial requirements of the legislation and the Sixth Amendment, and to report to Congress concerning the funds and personnel needed to im plement the speedy trial requirements. Thus, if my bill is adopted, it will require for the first time that the executive and judicial branches make a comprehensive assessment of their resources and their requirements for an efficiently functioning criminal justice system. Congress can then determine the resources necessary to achieve a well-run, modern judicial system - one which can effectively perform its function of punishing and re habilitating law breakers and de terring crime. breakers and deterring crime. I have urged the Justice Department and witnesses testifying before the Senate Subcommittee on Constitutional Rights, which is conducting hearings on preventive deten tion, to study my reform measure in the hope that it will lead to acceptable solutions for the immense problems which face us in the administration of criminal justice.
