Two diamonds are also located at the City Park, but they are for softball play. The high school team has a diamond next to Union High School. Mike Guinn, a Roosevelt City Councilman, said that the goal of the new ball park committee is to raise $7000. "Anyone, who wants to take part is welcome," said Guinn. The local golf course was built with donated labor and money and committee members are hoping to do the same with, the new Little League park. "We want the Roosevelt community to build the park through labor or providing remaining funding," Guinn said. Gaiy Scholes and Butch McGhee are the initial kick off of funds coming from members of the community.- Scholes and McGhee presented checks with McGhee also donating equipment People wishing to donate funds or labor to "New Youth Baseball" can contact officials at the Roosevelt City Building or Pat Wisener, Citizen Chairman. - Upland game coordinator discusses wild turkey management in Utah By Dean Mitchell, DWR Upland Game Coordinator Two' subspecies of the wild turkey, the Merriams and Rio Grande, have been successfully established throughout Utah. There are three mqjor populations of Merriams turkey (La Sal Mountains, Boulder Mountain and Cedar Mountain) and several populations of Rio Grande turkey in the state. Since the early 1950s, the citizens of Utah have enjoyed these magnificent birds. In 1963, Utah sportsmen were given the opportunity to pursue the Merriams subspecies of wild turkev. A fall hunt was provided on these birds until 1985, when the season was dosed. A spring hunt has been offered since' 1967. Due to increased hunter demand on the wild turkey resource, and its popularity, a spring hunt only is currently offered. Since Utahs wildlife 1984, enthusiasts have eryoyed the Rio Grande subspecies of the wild turkey. Limited spring hunting opportunity was offered beginning in 1991 on these birds. Utah biologists have learned a great deal about turkey management since the. first attempted turkey release in 1925. Today, biologists are able to match Utah habitat with the appropriate subspecies of wild turkey.The Division of Wildlife Resources (DWR) has transplanted the Merriams turkey into mountain-typ- e habitat of atiAtMfWUtdffdfW'Rfo Grande turkey into the bottomlands of the state. DWR has developed transplant priority site lists for both the Merriams and Rio Grande subspen cies. sites that provide suitable habitat for wild turkeys have been identified statewide. The mqjor emphasis in managing the wild turkey in the future will be to establish populations at each of these 57 sites.
