Purpose of survey, OPS said, is to find where there is sufficient stability in prices of number of standard grocery items to make "community pricing" program possible. Safeway stores, large grocery chain, has filed a protest with OPS against the general ceiling price freeze promulgated last January, declaring it has lost hundreds of thousands of dollars through compliance with the price freeze. country-wid- RETAIL SALES DECLINE IN NATION Retail sales in June showed 1 per cent defrom May, but were 3 per cent above a year ago with total for month of $12,300,000,000.

She previously served as attorney for regional offices of the national labor relations board. three-memb- d, much flattened profiles so typical of the panfish. Both are ipnnkled with black on a silver background. There Is a difference n color patterns, however. The vhite crappie has its black spots arelesslv spaced in loose, vertical bars, while the black crappie Is as liberally and aimlessly sprinkled as piece of Grandma s calico; whence it gets one of its common names calico bass. As one might expect, color is the weakest of characters, for the young black crappie are barred as are white crappie. Positive Identification requires closer observation. Fishermen commonly separate the two fish by counting the spines of the dorsal fin. Usually the black crappie has seven or, perhaps, eight spines; whereas, the white crappie commonly has six. A com bination of color pattern and spine count almost always establishes the identity of one's fish. Crappies normally spawn in May in most midwest waters. Neither species is a colonial nest builder as are many sunfish. Fifteen or twenty feet usually separate in dividual nests. Root wads and weed clumps are preferred sites, although depth of water is apparently immaterial. Nesting areas may be found in ten inches or ten feet of water. Throughout the range of these fishes, the black is found in cooler, clearer waters and seems to prefer a hard bottom; the white is well pleased in warmer, more turbid waters and is not averse to mud bottoms. The same preferences are exhibited in choosing nesting sites. Count of eggs taken from ripe females show one-hapound fish producing twenty thousand to sixty thousand eggs. Fish weighing one and one-hapounds may produce as many as one hundred and forty thousand eggs. Such a reproductive capacity is a veritable dynamo of productivity. White crappie build up popula tions faster than do black crappie. Since both species readily become overpopulated in small bodies of water, the black crappie is logical ly the more desirable fish for lake stocking. Neither is suitable in re stricted pond waters. There are occasional reports of two- - and three-poun- d crappies, and larger fish have been caught. None the less, the average good crappie weighs about ten ounces. Although crappie have been kept in aquaria for ten years, a seven' veteran is an old or eight-yea- r warrior. Crappie are school fish and are well traveled. A quarter-mil- e jour ney is not unusual during the daily Both for food. reconnaissance fish and it species are weed-lovin- g is not surprising that they take a large variety of aquatic Insects Although a bucket of small min nows is standard equipment for crappie fishermen, food studies re veal that these fish take about ten times as much other food as they do minnows but nevertheless a proper ly placed minnow approaches the irresistible where crappie are con cerned. Fly and bait casting equipment take a respectable nurr.per of fish. Small plugs, spoons, or fly and spinner combinations are quite sue cessful when properly used. To insure a full stringer, crap pie fishermen should first select a promising location. A submerged brush pile, a fallen tree, a weed bed these are the reserved sections in the tournament of the spotted sun lf lf fish. Once a school has been located, strikes are numerous. But the ang ler must take advantage of his good fortune: these foraging feeders come and go as quietly as a sum mer breeze. X t 3 ....
