Page 12, Terrace Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, August 10, 1983 Big Gus - Pukaskwa National Park The early trappers of Pukaskwa National Park were all dedicated peo- ple and full of character. For instance Dan Good- child liked the wilder- - ness so much that he left a job at the mill paying _ $150.00 a month to pick berries for $2.00 a day; and Gordan Primeau was such a book fanatic he'd finish the chapter he was reading before rising to greet his rare guests. The most inter- Moose hunt selection... continued from page 11 vest Program absolutely fair to all moose hunters in Ontario, we will make the necessary correct- ions to. the computer program and all 87,000: applications through again for the 42 WMU's."' The Minister said the same quotas used in the first draw will be used for the second. Those who have already re- ceived tags will be al- lowed to use them. If their names are drawn a second time, they will not be issued a second tag. No new applications for the second draw will be accepted. Mr. Pope said that while more tags will be issued for the 1983 hunt than originally intended, due to the program er- ror, this should not pre- sent a serious setback to the success, of the Se- lective Moose Harvest Program. "Our best es- timates tell us we may be issuing tags for an additional 750 moose," he said. The original goal of the Selective Moose Harvest Program was to reduce the num- ber of moose harvest- ed, Mr. Pope said. "Even with this sec- | ond draw, we have still cut down the number of hunters licensed to hunt bull and cow moose in Ontario -- from 86,000 in the 1982 season to approximately 50,000 in 1983. This still repre: sents a dramatic reduct- ion and enables us to meet our original goals of conservation and moose management."' The new computer program designed by the private firm was pre- tested on 6,000 names before the actual draw. The second draw is ex- pected to be completed by the end of this week, Mr. Pope said. Hunters will be notified next - week. Under the Ministry's new Selective Moose Harvest Program, only hunters with specific tags can harvest a bull or cow moose. All other resident hunters with a valid moose licence can harvest a young-of-the- year calf moose only. One Soyburger, Hold the Mayo Consumers all over the world can expect to see more food pro- ducts and food ingredients made from such exotic sources as cot- tonseed, soybeans and sunflow- ers. Texas A&M food scientists have developed dozens of new foods from cottonseed including a cottonseed burger.

He stayed in an old logger's cabin in Otter Cove. He trapped in the winter; and in the Bay, where, true to character, he usually went on a bit of a ram- page.
