The minnow is a carrier and spawne* of parasites that kill game fish. Minnows have been known to wipeout game fish in entire waterway | systems. They get into '"'ciean" lakes many ways, but mostly through fisher- men using them as bait, A couple of live minnows es- / caping into a lake from a fish- erman's bait pail is all that's needed to start the process of mass infestation, says Dr, Pre- vost. An authority on fish preserva-) {work as a government biologist dealing with the minnow prob- lem, LONG EXPERIENCE Dr. Prevost was director of the Quebec biological board for many years, and formerly di- rector of biology for the Uni- versity of Montreal. Although no longer directly concerned with the problem, he says he has retained the in- terest "of ar ordinary citizen" in the minnow menace and plans to continue his campaign "to educate fishermer. about this real threat." He campaigns for a "sanitary| cordon"' of entire water systems) that are already affected, en-| circling minnow-infested waters to limit the damage and restrict {movement of disease carriers. "Are the inhabitants of a protected by ne the free- dom of the sick In lakes around Montreal min- nows have so many parasites 'they cannot be given as fish food to muskies the government) raises at laboratories in. subur- ban Lachine. They would kill the muskies. SEEKS TOTAL BAN Dr. Prevost has seen Quebec impose a ban on sale of min- nows without a special permit, but he wants a total ban with no strings attached -- a ban such as those imposed in' Man- itoba, Saskatchewan and Al- berta.

BY ORDER OF THE BOARD LINDSAY, ONTARIO. February 6, 1963. H.H. MeFADDEN, Secretary, May Get Boost Eastern Canada KITCHENER (CP) -- Speed- skating, a fading sport in East- ern Canada in recent years, may. get a modest boost when the Canadian speedskating championships are held here Saturday and Sunday. The Kitchener Sertoma Club is sponsoring the championships on a hastily-constructed track. It will mark the first time the championships have been de- cided in Ontario since they were held at Sudbury in 1047. Most of the top Canadian gpeedskaters in the last few years have been westerners, in- cluding defending champions Bob Hodges of Saskatoon and Doreen Ryan of Edmonton. Hodges won't compet: at Kit- chener. Among those given a good chance to win the over-all crown are Steve Kovacs, last year's Ontario champion, and Johnny Roosendahi of St. Cath- arines. ve Suggests All CFL Offices Be In Toronto VANCOUVER (CP) -- Van. couver Lions are coming up with a suggestion that may shake the hierarchy of the Ca. nadian Football League. Lions' general manager Herb Capozzi said Tuesday the club will propose at the annual CFL meeting in Hamilton this week- end that all CEL offices be cen- tralized in Toronto. At present CFL commissioner Sydney Halter lives in Winni- peg, secretary Bob Gillies in Regina and statisticians Bill Hawryluk and Gordon Walker in Regina and Toronto respec- tively Said Capozzi: 'Toronto, for all intents and purposes is the cen- tre of Canada. It is the trans- portation centre and the com. munications centre. It is more accessible thant Winnipeg for visiting delegates and it is close to football and communications areas that we deal with in the United States." He said that with a central- ized office there, league busi- ness could be conducted at all te with a single telephone call.
