If a decision is reached to Initi

men of the eastern part of Hie
state may be effected.
"May would afford a much bet

February." one member of the
club stated this morning. "Another
thing to be renu mbered is thai we
people in I'malilla county are not
interested particularly in attract

and anglers to come here for their

ever, in attracting prospective set
