' The conference managers are going
to make an effort to straighten out

DISPUTED GAME
LAW SUMMED UP
BY THE WARDEN
Feeding Ducks and Shorten
ing Deer Season Affects
All Sportsmen,
Speaking of two of the very Import
ant subjects under discussion at the
cportsmen's association meeting, which
affect all parts of the state, Carl D.
Shoemaker, state game warden, sums
up the duck feeding and the deer
shortening proposition as follows:
"The question of legislating against
the feeding of ducks la a mooted one.
Aa tha law now atanda, there Is noth
ing to prevent sportsmen from feeding
ducks. Aa a matter of fact the aver
age sportsman does not get much duck
shooting; duck shooting is limited
practically to members of duck shoot
ing clubs. All along the Columbia
river. In tha sloughs and lakes tnd on
the Islands, and In many piaoe
throughout th valley, property has
teen. leased by duck clubs and no one
except members, or invited guests.
has been permitted to shoot.
"There is nothing in the law to pre
vent this form of organization and no
legislation could be passed which
would affect the right of a number of
sportsmen to band themselves together
and form a club of this kind. Natural-
y, all of the best grounds are taken up
by these clubs and they obtain prac-
ically all the shooting. A great many
of these clubs have been formed along
ho Columbia, and the members have
employed caretakers who throw feed
along tha water to attract the ducks.
This ha been done for a great many
years and there has been pretty good
hooting. j
Shooting Tall Off In Valley.
"Shooting fell off In the valley and
the sportsmen there became aroused
over tha claim that the feeding of
ducks kept them along the Columbia
until the season was over and then tha
ducks migrated Into California without
stopping or resting in the valley. In
crder to- obtain some shooting In the
valley, It was then proposed In tha
legislature a number of years ago,
tJiat the feeding of ducks anywhere in
the state be prohibited by law. The
vote has been very close In the past,
rut the bill has never carried. A com
promise, however, was effected by clos
ing the season six weeks earlier In
Multnomah. Clatsop, Columbia, Tilla
mook and Coos counties than in other
counties of the state. Duck feeding
then would stop on December 31 in tha
counties first named; the birds would
no longer find food and would Immedi
ately take up their flight to the south
lands, migrating by easy stages
through tha valley and resting in the
waters of the Willamette and its tribu
taries and tha lakes of southern Ore
gon. "The federal law stepped In. how-
aver, and closed the season on duck
shooting on January IS of each year.
This cut off a whole month of shoot
ing for the valley sportsmen and now
tha old question Is raised again. What
action tha league will take in the
matter is problematical and whether
or not the legislature would follow
the recommendations of the league is
also problematical. In any event, a
merry argument is assured On this
question.
Seer Season Demand Attention.
"The question of closing the deer
season 15 days earlier or opening it
15 days later is another one which
will demand serious attention from
the delegates at the meeting. Two
years ago the fight was made for a
60 days' deer season, beginning Sep
tember ). The arguments advanced
were, flrat, the preservation of the
deer, and secondly, less flr hazard in
the National roresi; it Deing contended
that if tha season opened on September
1 there would be less danger of hunt
ers setting fire to the timber through
caraleaaness, as tha damp season would
be coming on.
"However, a potent argument was
advanced stating that thousands of
people throughout the state took their
vacations during the period from June
1 to September 1 and that a great
many sportsmen arranged to take their
vacations sometime during the month
of August in order to get In a deer
hunt This Is true of employes In
the railroad officers, banks, mercan
tile establishments and all big busi
nesses, and. the argument was a good
one as the legislature listened to It
with respectful attention and finally
compromised by opening the seavon on
August 15 Instead of September 1, thus
giving two weeks open deer season
during that month.
"But the advocates of game
preservation sun maintain that a 60
days' deer season la sufficient, and
taking Into consideration the reasons
advanced by many sportsmen who can
only take their hunting trips In Au
gust, it Is now advocated that the 15
days be cut off the tall end of.t.ie
season; in other words, close the 'sea
son on October 15 Instead of October
tl. There doe not seem to be a
great deal of opposition to tha so days
deer season and It will probably re
ceive the endorsement of the league.
although there are some advocates
against It and sufficient strength
might be obtained to divert . such a
recommendation."

TENNIS PLAYERS

TURNED ON THEM
National Association to Pre-
vent Some From Play- .
ing in Tourneys,
New York, Pec. 4. (U. P.) The
amateur standing of tennis players Is
going to be placed on a pedestal, hand
ed a few uppercuts, a right crows or
so and a few swings when the United
States National Lawn Tennis associ
ation meets in February. This was
made plain in a statement issued by
George T. Adee, president of the as
sociation, in which he declared an
amateur in the tennis association 19
Just the same sort of Individual that
bows to tha edicts of the A. A. U.
McTjOUffhlla May Be Barred.
Tha executive committee of tha na
tional association is scheduled for a
meeting next Friday and a number of
suggestions already made will be put
lntd final form for the meeting in
February. Included in this bunch of
recommendations will be one that ten
nis players engaged in the business of
selling tennis goods shall not be con
sidered amateur players for tourna
ment purposes, although tha sugges
tion is not worded to mean that tha
players so engaged shall be declared
professionals.
This seems rather a direct thrust.
and misses Maurice E. McLoughlln
not at all. The California comet sells
tennis goods or any kind of goods the
sporting publib may desire.
Miss Caasel's Case Is Closed.
The case of Miss Clare Cassel, who
was barred from a tournament sev
eral months ago on the ground that
she had become a professional by giv
ing skating lessons for pay, la touched
upon In President Adee's statement.
He declares there is nothing further
to say regarding this case.
"In th public discussions of this
case," said Adee, "there has been no
disposition to question the fact that
Miss Cassel gave skating lessons for
money. The question arose as to
whether in such, circumstances she
could be considered an amateur in ten
nis competition. All this is covered
by the present rules and has nothing
to do with suggested changes.
Section of Bylaws.
"Section four of article two of the
bylaws reads as follows:
" 'An amateur is one who has not
played. Instructed. pursued or as
sisted in the pursuit -of tennis or
other athletic exercise as & means of
livelihood or for any gain or emolu
ment.' "
Another suggested change forbids
tennis players from receiving pay for
taking part in any tennis tournament,
except that expenses may be supplied
by the club or association repre
sented. Whitman Turns Its

EXPECT RIOKARD
TO MAKE THINGS
HUM AT GARDEN
Tex May Wait Until Famous
Structure Undergoes Fore
closure Friday.
By H. C. Hamilton.
New York. Dec. 4 (U. T.) Despite
the fact that Harry Pollock. John
White, Jimmy Johnston and possibly
several others who have not stepped
out In public are after a license to
conduct boxing bouts in Madison
Square Garden, "Tex" Rlckard, widely
known promoter, etill is confident the
historic enclosure will fall to his lot.
Before the first of the year he expects
to announce some high class bouts.
As wag announced some time ago by
the United Press, Rickard has made a
bid for the garden and at one time
had progressed so far that he expected
to sign the lease. Hitches arose which
prevented and he now is waiting until
after the sale of the building at auc
tion, which will be done In a fore
closure proceeding Friday of this week,
according to statements credited to the
garden's receiver, Edward McOall.
For th present, the popularity of
boxing and the life of the game In the
nations greatest city depends largely
upon what Is done with the garden.
It is the largest inclosure In tne city
wherein bouts may be held In winter
and Its reputation Is so great that It
would be hard to get along without.
Kicjcara s announcement that his at
still is in the ring Is excellent tidings
not only for New York fang but for
those all over the country. There Is
no promoter with the standing of the
man who made It possible for Jack
Johnson to hold the heavyweight cham
pionship. He is the only real take-a-
chance promoter now trying to do
business and that he will take some
real bouts if he gets Madison Square
Garden la a foregone conclusion.
Already Rlckard Is eald to have the
signature of Jess Wlllard calling for
a bout soon. He made a trip to
Chicago a few days ago to talk thing
over with the big champion.
Clayton Sharp's aggregation of bai-ketball-tossers
won the opening game
of the championship series from Ed
wards' five Sanday on the club floor bv
the score of 16 to 15. The feature of
the game was the shooting of five bas
