The state DNR responded to calls from anglers and collected about 50 of the dead birds east of Grand Marais, but has heard other reports and may never know how many birds were affected.<\/p>\n<p><b><i>This story, as well as a story in the Sept. 13, 1955, News-Tribune, &#8220;Movie Stars to Shine at Fall Festival Event&#8221; (Page 1) originally contained a misspelling of Ricardo Montalban&#8217;s first name. This story was updated at 9:40 a.m. Sept. 14, with the proper spelling.
