Hells Canyon Dams Described as Inexcusable Disaster
Idaho Fish and Game official calls two proposed Mountain Sheep and Pleasant Valley Dams in Hells Canyon an inexcusable disaster that would flood 55 to 75 miles of the Snake River, wipe out fish runs and harm winter deer and elk ranges while offering limited energy benefits. Northwest power interests push for federal approval despite environmental and regional impacts.

Fish Planting Starts Soon in Idaho Streams and Lakes
Idaho Department of Fish and Game will begin planting lakes and streams statewide ahead of the general fishing season opening May 24 in most areas. Hatcheries supervisor Walt Bethke says this year’s plantings will return to 1972-73 levels after a 45 percent cut last year due to higher fish feed costs. Regional managers recommend releases by area and planting will begin as weather and water conditions permit.

Cleaver Seeks Return to United States from Paris
Eldridge Cleaver now living in Paris with gray hair says he would return to face trial in California if jailed after trial is unlikely. He fled the U S in 1968, lived in Cuba and Algiers, and holds royal income from Soul on Ice but cannot move money out of the United States. He remains pro Palestinian though less harsh on Israel, and his terms for returning appear unlikely.
