GRAND ISLE John “Dick” Adams of Grand Isle puts finishing touches on his carving of two chickadees.

Grand Isle Man Portrays

Wildlife Through CarvingsThe atmosphere is informal in Dick Adams's

Grand Isle workshop. A baby lamb totters against the wood stove where it is quickly snatched up by a child dashing through. Dogs, kittens and rabbits stay into the work area or are carried in by children stopping to watch their father at work. Located just behind the kitchen, the workshop is a place where conversation flows and visitors are welcome.

It is also the place where the blocks of wood stacked in the corner are transformed into breath-taking wildlife studies by Adams. Each carving that he does is more than just a representation of a bird or an animal—it is an actual life scene astonishing in its detail and precision.

A bog lemming bares two tiny ivory teeth as it glances over its shoulder at an owl hovering over it with claws poised ready to snatch. A mother canvasback duck shelters four babies under its wings as a fifth flees from the outstretched jaws of an approaching turtle. And just completed on the workbench are two tiny chickadees clinging in lifelike splendor to aknarled branch.

To the Editor:Students of CCV and others are wondering what's

going to happen next. CCV is carrying on educational business as usual in the county through this Spring ’79 term. Relative to the following year,Fve received some clarification:

1. The regional staff [Grand Isle, Franklin and Lamoille Counties], has been cut back from 12 members to eight. Most of these are part time; I, for instance, am and have been, half-time.

On the last Saturday in April, the 28th this year, fisherman can try for any Vermont fish except bass and sturgeon. Bass season doesn t open until the second Saturday in June, the 9th, and sturgeon are protected year around.

Lake Champlain northern pike have no closed season, a daily limit of 10 and no minimum length. And for those who don't realize it, every spring from March 25 through May 25, it is legal to shoot them in Champlain with firearms, deer rifles and shotguns included. There are relatively few participants and this practice is not good for the species. But the rest of you sportfishermen are content to go along with it, so the archaic law stays on the books. Fish and Game tried to eliminate it a few years ago, and did briefly, but almost immediately, the department took a sound trouncing

the matter. The old law was reinstated by the Legislature and even expanded. In this day and age when sportsfishing is paramount it doesn,t even make sense. But it is legal , and evidently not enough people care about wasting our pike and pickerel to change the law.

Getting back to happier things, big northern pike provide a lot of sport on light tackle—and good eating too. I often refer to them as the “poor man’s musky.” We have a pretty good supply of northern pike in spite of things above. Pickerel too are real scrappers in large size, especially on a fly rod or light spinning rod. If you don't know how to dress out the Y-bone, write to Fish and Game in Montpelier asking for the ‘ ‘pickerel sheet’ ’ which gives step by step procedure for great, completely bone-free fillets.

Both pickerel and northerens are through spawning now, but they are still pretty much in the same general areas where spawning took place. If water levels are down, they'll move out to somewhat deeper water along edges of weedy margins, brush lined banks or flooded woodland. That’s where you should try for them first. Chances are their stomachs still will be pretty much empty, but any day now, they'll become re venous and savage, trying to make up for lost time.

Newcomers to fishing for the “Esox” family should be forewarned about their many sharp teeth. Northerns and muskies are somtimes referred to as freshwater barracudas. Take along a big net or use a billy club to quiet them so you can get them up the shore or into a boat.

There is little interference from weeds now, but weedless lures help when they have to go through root and brush tangles. Any lure causing a lot of fuss on the surface or action below will take northerns or pickerel. Catching them isn’t automatic by any means. They can be a sulky, stubborn lot of times. And when you strike, strike hard. These fish are hard mouthed. Often, it seems, they just clamp onto a lure and later open that big mouth and toss it just when you're sure the battle is going your way.

The state record (since 1969) for pickerel is 6 lbs. 4 oz., but two to four pounders are pretty common. The northern pike record is 30 lbs. 8 oz. Eight to ten pounders are taken fairly often early and late in the season.

Short tip. This year try fishing different areas in the state. Plan a trip using the free “Fishing Guide and Map” published by Fish and Game. Request one from your local tackle shop, a warden or biologist, or from Vt. Fish and Game Department, I & E Section, Montpelier,Vt. 05602.

“I learn alot by examing them;" the Grand Isle carver pointed out, “things I would never guess from a picture." He goes on to say that he has just discovered that the inner eyelid of a seagull is a bright orange in color; a color that is also found at the rear of its throat. “That’s something I needed to know as the seagull I am carving next will have its beak open."

Adams's attention to detail is evident in all of his carvings and has undoubtedly played a large part in the woodcarving awards that he has won at the local, national and international level. During this past year, two of his carvings took fourth place at the Canadian Nationals: one in the Professional Waterfowl division and one in the Professional Predator division. He also placed fourth in the Decorative Waterfowl division of the World

started. I keep putting it off; but once the birds start taking shape and looking how I want them to, the more enthused I get, and the longer and the harder I work," he explains.

According to Dick, the initial stages of the work are the most difficult for him. He begins a carving by making a series of scale drawings from a number of different angles. The drawings take about a week to complete, but Dick usually delays the actual carving for another month so that he can study the drawings and make any necessary changes. 4 ‘This is the hardest part for me, says Adams, “because I’m not an artist.’’

Next he chooses the wood. Basswood is his favorite medium as it is durable and fine-grained, yet it can be bended and twisted. He uses cedar occasionally for inlaid feathers and working decoys, and white pine 4 ‘because I have it around and want to use it up."

He cuts the basic pattern on a bandsaw and inserts blocks for the head, tail section, and any extended wing or portion where the grain of the wood needs to run in a different direction.

The carving is then roughed out with chisels, rasps, and goudges and finished with knives and sandpaper. Although Adams has an extensive selection of carving tools in his shop, he admits that he only uses four or five favorites—ones 4 ‘that really seem to fit my hand.’ ’

4 ‘The carving itself is the easiest part for me, ’ ’ hecomments. He depends exclusively on his sense of touch to determine symmetry and balance. Once he is satisfied with the bird's shape, he bums in each individual feather and detail and then paints the bird.

From start to finish, he estimates that the process takes about a month working evenings and weekends after his job at I.B.M. in Essex Junction is completed. But he cheerfully admits that in summer and during duck hunting season, little gets done unless the weather is terrible. Thus in the course of a year, he finishes from five to seven wildlife studies.

Recently, he has begun to work on more than one at a time to keep up with the demand and he always has a few in the planning stages. At present he is working on drawings for a pair of hummingbirds and a seagull.

Dick first began carving at the age of 12 when he worked on a merit badge for boy scouts. In the years that followed he worked at the craft sporadically. He has never taken any lessons in carving, preferring to experiment and to practice on his own. But he points out that he has gained valuable tips from various woodcarving books and from other carvers.

It was not until 1973 that he began to carve seriously. At that time, a friend, carver Dave Harrington, urged him to try his hand at minature _ decoys but Adams found himself dissatisfied with _ his efforts in this field. “I didn't want to copy 3? anyone else,'' he remembers. So he began workingon life-size birds and animals. . ,

Now however, he specializes exclusively m birds.“I have done dogs, horse and gunstocks, but I shy away from these things now I P*e*e* 50especially hawks, ducks, and owls, but I do do any |_J_

Snelling to Plant White Pine

As Part of Green-Up DayARLINGTON In special ceremonies on Green Up Day, May 5, Governor Richard Snelling of Vermont will visit Arlington to plant a descendant of the fallen white pine tree which inspired the creator of the Great Seal of Vermont 200 years ago. This giant State Seal Pine, 175 feet tall, was located in a hillside park on Route 313, owned and maintained by the Arlington Garden Club. It was toppled by high winds in March of 1978.

Vermont historians, including the late John Clement, believed that the seal was designed by Ira Allen, who observed the huge pine from a window of the home of Thomas Chittenden, Vermont's first governor, who lived in Arlington during the Revolutionary period. A dominant feature of the Great Seal is a pine tree with no leading branches, a a TTATT?T distinction shared with the Arlington pine, which | XlLF A-I-tAj also had no leading branches. Historians speculate | rTAT T A NTHthat the 14 branches on the State Seal Tree * mJanticipates Vermont’s entry into the Union in 1791 as f Special Lunches Monday-Frfday |the 14th State. # . | _ _ , . . 4 ^ ^ _ J

CHAMBER OF COMMERCEThe next meeting of the Rouses Point-Champlain Chamber of Commerce has

been scheduled for Thursday, April 26th. At the group’s previous meeting, a letter was read from an interested party in Detroit, Michigan, asking for Chamber brochures regarding this area.

Discussions were held on the recent raising of tolls on the Rouses Point-Alburg bridge as Canadians who stay in this area during the summer and do a lot of commuting via the bridge to and from Vermont, have been complaining about the added cost of travelling over the bridge and the inability to get books of bridge tickets. The Canadians feel they are being discriminated against because of this sales policy, and President Peter Nietupski agreed to write Leo Kelly, Chairman of the Bridge Commission regarding the matter.

Mark Barie reported on the proposed Map Directory being considered by the Chamber.

It was also reported that various organizations will be contacted to help with the Clean-Up in the two villages in conjunction with the Pride Committee, headed by Hazel Taft.

Renny Chapman gave a report from the Events Committee, concerning previously held events and possible fund raisers, such as a Costume Halloween Party.

F*utting up flags in the two villages during the holidays was discussed also,and it was suggested that Pete Nieutupski and Darrell Lintner contact businessmen in the area to find out how many would be interested in participating in this project.

The Fishing Contest scheduled for May 26th-June 3rd was brought up and it was noted that Sherb House would handle the entries with an assist from the Tackle Shop and McDonough’s Sporting Goods Store. A $2.00 registration fee will be charged and the Chamber agreed to sponsor the contest.

The holding of sailboat races on Lake Champlain was brought up and it was reported that three marina owners seemed favorable to the idea, while another marina was to be contacted and the Power Squadron would be asked to assist with the races. It was suggested that August would be a good time to hold the event if it is approved by everyone.

Ernest Genereaux recently returned to his home in Champlain after being a patient at the C.V.P.H. Medical Center.

SAVE CAMPBELL PRODUCT LABELS!You are asked to save your labels from Campbell's Soups, Chunky Soups,

Soup for One, Campbell's Baked Beans, all Franco-American Products, Campbell's Tomato Juice and V-8 Juice. These labels, when turned in to the schools, can be used toward the purchase of books for the library, or needed educational equipment purchases. Previously, such items as audio-visual equipment pieces were obtained free of charge through the program.

Mrs. Dolores Dupras, Elementary Librarian at both the Champlain and Rouses Point schools says that “Soup Cans" have been set up in the school libraries for the collection of the labels. The same program is being participated in by the Northern Adirondack Central School, with much success.

It only takes a minute to slit the labels, and when you have a number of them saved up, turn them over to the schools, so that they can be put to good use in the securing of educational aids.
