Sports Fishermen
Okay Consolidation
Of Commissions
SALEM (AP) Sports fisher
men gave-their support Thursday
night to a proposal to consolidate
the Fish and Game commissions.
But the commercial fishing indus
try opposed it.
The bill was drafted by the Leg
islative Interim Committee on
Natural Resources, and Gov.
Mark O. Hatfield favors it. The
hearing was before the House
State and Federal Affairs Com
mittee. James W. Cellars, Astoria, of
Ihn Columbia River Salmon and
Tuni Packing Association, suid
the two commissions are not com
paliblc, and that both are doing
a gdod job. The Fish Commission
regulates commercial fishing. The
Game Commission regulates hunt
ing and angling for sport.
Wendell Gray of the Portland
Izaak Wallpn League supported
the bill. But he said it needs
amendments to make sure the
consolidated commission promotes
game development and stays out
of politics.
Other supporters included L. C.
Binford, Portland, a member of
the Interim Committee; Larry
Barton, Horton, of the Oregon
Coast Sportsmen's Council: and
Leslie Simpson, Eugene Sports
men's Protective Association.
Kenneth G. Denman, Mcdtord,
former Game Commission mem
ber, opposed (lie bill, saying it
would be a delusion to think that
merging the two commissions
would bring the salmon back.
He said the commissions were
separated in 1887, merged in 1915,
and separated again in 1921.
"There mav be siignt oupuca

Cellars said the 1)ill is a "leg

Navy Security
Officer Fired
WASHINGTON (AP)-The Na

was abruptly relieved of his post
late Thursday, presumably be
cause he approved publication of
a magazine article calling strong

by the destroyer fleet.
The officer. Cmdr. John
James, confirmed that he had
been replaced, but declined to
discuss the circumstances. A vet
eran of 21 years of service, he
said he will retire soon.
The Navy gave no immediate
explanation for the change. -Informed
sources, however, said
James was blamed for passing
an article that went against Navy
policy and not that he permitted
anv violation of security.
The article, by Lt. Marc A.
Arnheiter, a young officer in the
office of the chief of naval opera
tions, appeared in Data maga

nel as "qualified for command

destroyer forces of the United
States are currently capable of

threat."
Arnheiter told of the frustration
of destroyers which, in war

"hopelessly inadequate" to deal

NEW YORK (AP) The Pol

the gay 90's, is doomed. '
The Board of Estimate Thurs
day approved plans of the New

Titans' games in the American
Football League, to be held.
