"Mayflies are an important symbol of the pollution problems of Lake Erie, and now it's a symbol of the continuing recovery of the lake," he said. With all that said, mayflies are still mildly annoying. Business owners opening up in the morning are greeted by multitudes of mayflies speckled on storefronts, plastered on streets and cars and piled under lights that have attracted them during the night.

"One year I left the sign on and they accumulated in a pile about three feet high," said George Schade, 73, owner of Schade's Offset Printing, Perry Street. Some spent Wednesday morning sweeping them up. Mayflies stain the clothing, and in mass, they begin to have a distinct fish odor. "Damn things," exclaims one woman at a downtown park bench, as her friend pulls a mayfly from her hair. A curious 10-year-old boy presses his face to the window at Wendy's Restaurant, points at the multitude of flies stuck to the outside, exclaiming, "What are these? What are these?" But knowing the reason behind the swarm of insects leaves people tolerant of their short-lived stay.

"The ones that are knowledgeable about the lake are happy to see them," said Charter Captain Mike McCann, of Fisherman's Wharf. "I hope they keep getting worse. It shows that there's a good healthy lake bottom." Donna Swiergosz, a Port Clin- ton police dispatcher and records clerk, remembers a time when the flies were so thick on the streets that cars would slide into each other. The city would turn off the street lights and crews would come by in the morning and sweep the flies into the back of trucks, she said. "When my brother and I were kids, they'd be all over the street, and we'd go sliding through them, like on ice.

That's how slippery they were," Swiergosz said. One of the questions Krieger and his colleagues are striving to answer through their research is whether mayflies will reach the numbers they did in the 1950s. "We will probably go back to the glory days when there were piles of them," said Mark Turner, an aquatic biologist for the Division of Wildlife, Sandusky. Officials scramble for rifle match funding Continued from Al said Mike Gill, legislative aide to uation. There are some unan- waiting for the Senate vote to find ways to fund the marksmanship program, which includes the annual shooting competition held at Camp Perry near Port Clinton.

The matches mean as much as $10 million annually to the area's economy. The matches are assured of funding this summer, but the scramble is on to fund the program in 1996. Some of the ways the matches could become self-sufficient include fee increases, the continued sale of surplus rifles at the matches, and local and state sponsorships. State Rep. Darrell Opfer, D- Oak Harbor, said he already had held discussions with officials at the Ohio Department of Development's Division of Travel and Tourism.

The state agency has helped to fund other large tourism-related events, including Columbus' Ameriflora in 1991. "The state of Ohio has supported other travel and tourism projects and they should be able to assisting some way with this project," Opfer said. From past rifle sales, proponents already have $900,000 saved to start next year's drive, Gillmor. "Whatever they have left over from the matches this year would be their base starting point for 1996. They will not be starting from zero," Gill said.

If the amendment passes through the Senate, the matches will no longer be considered a government function, therefore, businesses or individuals will now be able to sponsor events at the matches, Gill said. "If this gets through the Senate, we need to then reinvestigate those people who have expressed this interest in the past," he said. Don Jakeway, director of the Department of Development, as already expressed to Opfer his willingness to go to larger corporations around the state and solicit sponsorships. "Obviously, if the bill passes the Senate, it's going to be a challenge for local and state folks to come up with funds and the organization necessary to continue to make it a successful program," Opfer said. Milton Long, a Port Clinton resident and long-time supporter of the matches, believes it's possible.

The matches are a longstanding institution locally.

Because it involves guns, there's been a lot of opposition to it. I don't see how anyone can object to it now," Long said. Cherrie Wilson, director of the Port Clinton Chamber of Commerce will meet next week with a representative from Gillmor's office to see what can be done on a local level.
