Game Commission Sets ' Pheasant Dates for Wednesday, Saturday The state game commission Mon day stuck, to its former decision to charge Washington residents $10 for hunting and f 5 for angling in Ore gon. This puts the matter up square ly to the Washington officials to abide by the reciprocity clause on its non resident game fee statute, the com missioners believe. The Washington act sets the non-resident charge at the amount of the fee charged its own residents in' other states. If successful the Oregon charge will re duce the Washington non-resident fee about $10 so far as Oregon residents are concerned. For Idaho residents the commission will charge $50 for combination hunt ing license including large game, $5 for hunting of birds and $5 for angl ing, the fees charged Oregon people in that state. Linton and' Benson lakes in the Sf c . Kenzie pass district and Thomas, Blyue and Crabtree creeks were open ed to fishing. Their tributaries re main closed. Days for the twice-a-week Chinese Dheasant hunting schedule' for East ern Oregon, prescribed by the last legislature, were set for bawraay and Sunday, the opening days, and Sundays and Wednesdays thereafter during October.
