There Is a possibility that hunters
may soon be allowed to shoot doea
again, because of the fact thev are
becoming plentiful, whereas it Is
growing more and more difficult to
shcot the bucks. Deputy Game War
den George Tonkin is now engaged
in gathering data for a report to the
state commission on the success ot
hunters In Umatilla county during
the season Just closed. So far he
has learned of but three hunters, Al
bert Gilliam of Pilot Rock, Forest
Ranger Walter Allison and AmoJ
i'ond, a Cabbage Hill Indian who
secured the limit of three during the
season. A number bagged a couple,
a good many secured singles and
i-any others never got any. Mr
Tonkin is also questioning hunters

'hey saw during the season.
