Show Orem-Geneva Times- -Wednesday - June29, 1988 .Page 6 Orem Track Club runs away with Summer Games honors By Cathe Owens The Orem Track Club raced away with 38 gold medals at state track and field competition last weekend held in conjunction with the Utah Summer Games in Cedar City. Becky Perry burned up the track with four gold medals, breaking three state records. She won top honors in the pentathlon with 2,382 points topping the previous state record of 1,814. Perry also set the new record of 30.08 in the 200 meter hurdles edging the old record of 30.20, and bettered the previous state record of 16.39 in the 100 meter hurdles with a 15.02 second place run. Brian Crow in the Youth division also bettered three state records claiming claim-ing the gold in the high jump with a 5-10 12 jump, four and a half inches above the previous record. He trimmed half a second off his old state record for a new 13.99 record in the 100 meter hurdles, and beat the old pentathlon record by nearly 500 points, scoring 2,918 in that event. Danny Gansauge claimed three golds topping the state record, youth boys division, in the discus with a throw of 139-9. The previous record was 130-1. Eric Crow and Heather Frushour were also state record winners. Eric Crow set the state midget division high jump record at 54. He also claimed first-place finished in the shot put and 80 meter hurdles, and second place in the pentathlon.

Wildlife career in law enforcement By Heather Welker and Rudy Musclow Southeastern Region . The law enforcement section of the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources protects the state's wildlife populations through the enforcement of state laws, rules and wildlife proclamations. pro-clamations. Rules and proclamations are established by the Utah State Legislature, the Utah Wildlife Board, and the Board of Big Game Control. Conservation officers, or game wardens, have many functions. Their primary responsibility is to enforce wildlife laws. The basis for successful wildlife law enforcement is through field contact with hunters, anglers and other outdoor enthusiasts. - ' General patrol is one activity used us-ed by officers to prevent wildlife violations. Officers spend long hours patrolling their districts by foot, vehicle, vehi-cle, boat and airplane. Patrolling covers all areas within the officer's district and is not limited to just roads, boat landings or daylight hours. Patrols are made on a regular basis by checking anglers for fishing licenses, hunters for hunting licenses, enforcing the bag limits, searching for illegal traps and apprehending poachers. . Field contacts can be simple or complex depending on the situation and attitude of the person involved. A percentage of individuals contacted during patrol are in violation of. wildlife laws. For example, eight percent per-cent of the anglers fishing on a given day are doing so without a valid license. A violation such as fishing without a license is a minor offense, but it's against the law. Investigations, such as the illegal taking of wildlife, can be complex when an officer only has tire tracks, a blood spot, or a rifle cartridge as clues. Wildlife officers are trained in the most modern forensic techniques. FVMonre is carefully collected and In the midget girls Heather Frushour bested the state long jump record with a 14-11 jump. She also claimed golds in the 80 meter hurdles and the pentathlon. Heather also ran with the second place 4x100 meter relay team. The final state record setter was Kate Brown in the young women's division divi-sion with a 28-6 performance in the triple tri-ple jump.

CheerDance Drill Camp for girls This summer girls ages 12-18 are invited to fun at FancyFooteWorks Pep Arts Day Camp! The camp features three top instructors teaching all aspects of trying out, fun routines, stunts, leadership and performance per-formance skills. The specialists are: Kandi Kane-Foote, Kane-Foote, co-director of FFW and DrillDance Specialist for over 10 years; Julie Renstrom, an experienced experienc-ed songleader, choreographer and performer holding several honors, awards and titles; and Syd Scharr, a former BYU cheerleader arid the camp's cheerstuntgymnastics Specialist. The camp is July 14-16 and is held at the SCERA Park on State Street in Orem. The cost is $55 (includes meals) and registration is encouraged encourag-ed before July 1. Late registrations will be accepted until July 7. For registration information call Kandi at 224-1857. documented in an effort to unravel complex cases and apprehend wildlife violators. Roadblocks also provide an opportunity op-portunity for public contact. Although they can be set up anywhere and at any time, roadblocks are an effective way of apprehending a large number of violators. For example, 27 percent of the vehicles stopped on the Wyoming-Utah border during last year's hunting season were in violation viola-tion of Utah wildlife laws. Consequently, as a Certified State Peace Officer, wildlife officers may become involved in cases dealing with such issues as littering, driving violations, viola-tions, narcotics and stolen property. Also adding to the diversity of their job, these officers often work jointly with other states and federal agencies. Although conservation officers do their best to stop wildlife violations, a significant portion of such violations remain undetected. The Help Stop Poaching Hotline (1-800-662-DEER) provides the public with the means by which they too can help fight fish and wildlife crimes. The Stop Poaching Program will also provide rewards of up to $1,000 for information which leads to the arrest and conviction of poachers.

Uinta Nat'l Forest 'Forest Service personnel have been working hard to prepare for the many people who will visit the Forest this year," stated Loyal Clark, spokeswoman for the Uinta National Forest. "We are looking forward to serving the many visitors that will spend their vacations on the beautiful Uinta National Forest." All campgrounds are open on the Pleasant Grove Ranger District. The Alpine Scenic Loop is open and completely com-pletely accessible. Dispersed areas are still muddy so campers are being asked to exercise caution in parking their vehicles and trailers. Campgrounds on the Spanish Fork Ranger District are open. Gates leading to Payson Canyon, Salt Creek Canyon, and Santaquin Canyon are open. At the end of May there was still a lot of snow preventing complete throughway over the Nebo Scenic Loop. Trailers are not advised to travel the roads between Blackhawk Campground and Salt Creek due to lack of turn around spots. Those visitors traveling the Loop should be aware of road damage and exercise appropriate precautions. Campgrounds on the Heber Ranger District are open. The Strawberry Visitor's Center, on the Heber Ranger District, is open, the Visitors's Center will provide the public with information concerning the vast opportunities in Strawberry and surrounding valleys. Garbage bags are available from all campground attendants. The Uinta Uin-ta National Forest's Pack-it-In, Pack-it-Out policy asks all visitors to carry out all garbage they accumulate during dur-ing their stay.

Wrapping up?! Whatever happened to baseball being our national na-tional pastime? You know the old line . . . "baseball, hot dogs, and apple pie." Somehow we've lost the romance of it all. Ballparks used to have a certain flavor, a certain smell associated with them. It was a place where a boy was happy to spend his entire summer, sum-mer, there with a touch of chalky dust mixed in with the pungent aroma of sun-warmed grass clippings weighing down the air. Well-worked, slighly sweaty leather gloves snapped with each catch, as the teams, decked out in flannel hats, button-front jerseys, and baggy pants warmed up for the big game. Hot dogs and soda pop filled fill-ed out the bill for a luxurious life at the park. Now that's American! Maybe it was the invention of polyester that did it, but the boys who go into full-scale training in their tight stretch pants and knit shirts, rushing, to get the season done in time for family vacation just don't offer the same mystique of the old days. Baseball season is wrapping up, and each year and we appreciate the courtesy people show by taking the time to clean up around them. This allows our people to devote their time to care of the campgrounds, trails and other Forest priorities," said Clark. FEES-CAMP STAMPS Campers will need to observe the fee information posted at each campground cam-pground entrance and all regulations regarding the use of the campground. Campers will notice a fee increase in most campgrounds on the Uinta. "The increases will allow the Forest to more fully recover the operating, maintenance, and replacement costs for each campground. This adjustment adjust-ment in fees will remain in effect for a minimum of three years," said Clark. Legislation was passed in December that provides for returning most of the recreation user fees to the Forest where the fees were collected. Out of each dollar collected, 25 cents will be returned to the county, 10 cents will go for road maintenance, and 65 cents will come back for operating and maintaining the facilities. "Most campers don't mind paying the in- creased fees if they know most of the money will be used to take care of the.:. 51 pound trout - How old is it? By Ron Stewart Information Manager ; Northeastern Region When trophy-size lake trout are , brought into the dock, the questions bystanders usually ask are: "How large is it?" and "Who caught it?" The question likely to follow and one that can be difficult to answer is: "How old is it?" Just how old a trophy trout might be is a good question and as stated it can be difficult to answer. Many fish can be aged the same way trees are- 1 by counting their growth rings. Like ' a tree, fish grow faster during seasons when food is abundant; this growth spurt is reflected in rings on the scales and other hard parts of a fish's 'body. However, when a fish, like the 51-pound, eight-ounce lake trout caught recently by Curt Bilbey at Flaming Gorge, is able to feed year round, the growth rings can become blurred and biologists have to rely on other methods to determine age and growth rates. One common method used by the Division of Wildlife Resources is tagging fish. Tagging has its drawbacks because biologists must rely on anglers to return the Applications for big game Applications for deer, elk and antelope permits are being accepted by mail-in application only through July 8. Big game proclamations and applications are available at all Division Divi-sion of wildlife Resources offices and most sporting goods stores. Individuals applying for the permits per-mits must have a big game or combination com-bination license before applying for 'any hunt. Applications must be received by the Division no later than 15 p.m. on July 8. Mail application to: Big Game Application, P.O. Box 116500, Salt Lake Gty, Utah 84116.

Kids don't appreciate the same things anymore. How many kids do you know who relish the 'nought of a good plump hot dog? open for camping sites where the fees are collected," stated Clark. Campers can save 25 percent on camping fees by purchasing National Forest Camp Stamps, which are available at all National Forest Offices, Of-fices, Timpanogos Cave National Monument, and Phillip's Marina at Strawberry. GUIDELINES FOR ROUGHING IT Those campers choosing to camp in undeveloped areas rather than Forest campgrounds are asked to carry plenty of litter bags with them. Although the natural setting is attractive attrac-tive to some visitors, it requires special care to maintain its natural appearance and desirable condition. The Uinta National Forest offers many areas for dispersed or undeveloped campsites. There are some guidelines campers are asked to follow to make their stay a pleasant one. Camping in an undeveloped site is limited to 16 days. Motorists are permitted to camp within 150 feet of a Forest designated travel route. Motorists can help protect stream ares by placing their camps at least 100 feet away from streams. When planning an outing, campers should consider waste tags from the fish they catch. "Age and growth studies from Flaming Gorge show that lake trout grow slowly their first five to seven years of life," said Roger Schneider-vin, Schneider-vin, DWR's fisheries biologist at Flaming Gorge. "During this period they feed on zooplankton, crayfish and aquatic insects. in-sects. Upon inching 24-28 inches they switch to an almost exclusively fish diet and their growth rate increases dramatically. Even so, a 20-pound lake trout is probably 10-12 years old." Zooplankton, crayfish and insects are primarily abundant during the late spring, summer and early fall months. During the winter, young lake trout don't grow very much because the food supply has been greatly reduced. Under these circumstances cir-cumstances the growth rings form a ridge or annulus which can be counted to determine the age of a fish. When the lake trout switch to a fish diet, the growth rings are more difficult dif-ficult to count because the food supply supp-ly of fish is available year round and the growth rate doesn't change very much. The Utah Division of Wildlife Resources and the Wyoming Game and Fish Department began a major tagging effort in 1982 to help deter USE WHO THE PROFESSIONALS USE: We're endorsed by: AAA, AMOCO Motor Club and most of the larger automotive businesses m the area!

Large groups (25 or more people) must contact the Ranger Districts to acquire a free use permit. The permit helps acquaint the gr6up with Forest information and selection of a camp area. Where possible, the Forest has provided a place for personal messages and information on canyon bulletin boards. Placing personal signs on trees or Forest signs is not permitted. Such signing detracts from the Forest beauty and soon becomes litter. To get messages to friends, coordinate plans before leaving leav-ing home and use the message portion of the Forest bulletin boards.

IT'S A PUZZLE "Approximately 400 lake trout have been tagged each spring since 1985 with a $5 reward for a returned tag," said Schneidervin. "But, even with the $5 reward, many anglers fail to return the tags." One Flaming Gorge guide said he just can't understand some anglers. He commonly hears fishermen talk about lake trout management and how, too often, these experts have incomplete in-complete and sometimes conflicting information. Then he hears about the tags they have sitting on their dressers at home. "They complain, but they are actually withholding pieces of the puzzle. It's almost like -these anglers don't want the biologists to know what's going on." he said. 5 REWARD Wildlife biologists urge those anglers who have a tagged fish to return the tag to the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources or the Wyoming Game and Fish Department. By doing do-ing so, they will receive a copy of the fish's history and a $5 reward. Whenever an angler releases a 'fish with a tag, biologists ask that information infor-mation on the tag be noted along with the date and place of capture and sent to either agency. |
