Fishing and Huntina ) News of the Morrow County Hunters and Anglers By BETTY BROWN A GROUP of enthusiastic sports men and women once again have banded together to promote conservation of one of Morrow county s most valuable assets, the "great outdoors." It is the aim of this organi zation to plan some extra ac tivities for the youth of the county, as well as supervision and training in the art of being a good sportsman. Clint Agee, and Willard OHarra, with the help of game biologist Glen Ward, will meet with the young people, answer their questions and give them some help and training in gun safety and land owner courtesies. WAR ON CROWS, raven and magpies? Some residents will ask "Why?" No one has even a good word for the lowly mag pie, the crows and ravens are enemies of the sheep men and are predators which endanger the game and song bird pop ulation. At any rate the crow, magpie and raven contest will furnish a legitimate excuse for many youngsters to join in the fun of trying to extinguish the wary birds. It isn't easy, all you have to do is try shimmying up a tree or stump, and try to re trieve eggs from precariously placed nests. Getting back to the ground with eggs in tact is the real problem. IT IS HOPED that the weather man will cooperate on the first day of fishing season, because we have a BIG FISH contest planned for youngsters, up to and including 15 years of age. The girls will get a chance to share in this sport also. A prize will be given for the biggest fish for both the boys and girls. The only requirement is that the lucky ones be residents of Mor row county. OUR THANKS go to Terry Thompson and Dick Wilkin son who have allowed us to use their land as a designated "FISHIN' for KIDS," only. Boun daries of this reserved area from city limits up Willow Creek to and adjacent to Wilkinson's red barn, a landmark we are all familiar with. The Game Com mission has promised heavy fish planting in this 2 mile stretch, so fishing should be good. Adults are urged, on their honor, not to infringe on this territory, ex cept of course Mom and Dad might have to accompany those tots not yet able to fish alone. SPEAKING of planting of fish, Glen Ward informs us we are due for 2,000 trout for Rhea, Wil low, and Rock Creek; 2,000 are also suggested for Cutsforth park, and all of these will be legal size or over. A total of 40,000 fingerlings are due for Bull Prairie, one-half of that amount to be Eastern Brook and the remaining half, Rainbow. That perks up prospects for our immediate area, and Rowe Creek Reservoir will receive 14,000 legal size fish. This should make about every Morrow county ang ler pretty happy, just trying to figure his proportionate share for his creel. OUR NEXT MEETING will be an interesting one, a state repre sentative of the Izaak Walton League will present the league's activities and the Morrow County Hunters and Anglers may de cide to affiliate with this worthy organization. April 24 is the date, 8 p.m., courthouse in Hepp- ner, well be looking for you. I DON'T especially envy those generous men who volunteerea to count crow, raven, and mag pie, eggs and (mature and im mature) legs (in pairs, no less). Irvin Anderson, Haskell bhar- rard, Gene Orwick, and Jim Bar nett are to be congratulated. On baturday, April 20, some merch ant is going to have a crowd of fishy contestants displaying wet grass, worms, and big fish at his counter all trying to stretch that big fish an inch or two!

Mac High Nine Thumps Mustangs Mac Hi of Milton-Freewater thumped the Heppner High school baseball team, 6 to 1, Tuesday afternoon in a game on the Mustangs diamond. For the Heppner nine, the damage was done in the first three innings, the visitors scor ing two each in the first two frames and one in the third. The Mustangs tallied their lone run in the fourth, and Mac Hi completed the scoring with a single counter in the top of the seventh. Heppner found Pitcher Bill Whipple's offerings for only three hits, two by Stuart Dick, including a double in the fourth inning. The only other blow was by LeRoy Gardner, a single in the seventh. The Mustangs had the bases loaded in the sixth but failed to score. Ken Smith went the route for Heppner and after a bad start settled down to pitch a good ball game. He gave up four safe blows in the first inning but allowed only six more through the remaining six innings. Big sticker for Mac Hi was Temple who connected on two hits in four trips. Brenn of the visitors gave a double for their only extra base blow. Whipple, in going the distance for Mac Hi, struck out 11 Mus tangs and walked two. Smith, for Heppner, struck out four and walked two. The Mustangs played without the services of their regular shortstop, Shan Applegate, who was on the injured list. Mac Hi came to Heppner after splitting a pair with Hormiston the night before. The Mustangs travel to Milton-Freewater for a return game next Tuesday.
