rn nrrwra GAZETTE-TIMES 8 Thura., October 2. 1969 Game Director Urges Caution With Firearms "There isn't a cluck or pheas ant that flies, or the bigfiest trophy head in exlstenee. that is worth endangering the life of a huntitiK companion." John MeKeiin, mate game dir. ector, made this statement as he urned hunters to he careful with firearms during the big game, upland tame bird and water fowl seasons Rettinj; underway. MiKean voiced his concern over 11 nonfatal firearms hunt inn accidents which have al ready occurred this year, 8 of which involved Juveniles. All of the accidents except one have been the direct result of careless handling of firearms. The lone exception Involved the wounding of an individual in line of fire with neither the vic tim nor the shooter knowing of the other's presence. McKean aimed some of his re marks at parents who allow youngsters to hunt without su pervision or without adequate training in the safe handling of firearms. One Juvenile shot himself '."hile illegally hunting nuail or, his parents' property. Another Accident inV0.!N:fd youngsters hunting rabbits W.fh the parents' permission but without adult supervision. Low Requires Hunter Certificate Oregon law requires mai juve niles less than 18 years of age must possess a hunter saieiy certificate to hunt on lands oth or than their own or those of a parent or guardian. Juveniles under 14 years of age must be accompanied by adults, and youngsters under 12 may not hunt big game. Official reports of Investigat ing officers indicate accidents occurred because of some infrac tion of the basic rules of fire arms safety. One accident hap pened because the victim thought the weapon was unload ed. One youngster almost lost a hand while he was dragging his loaded firearm through the brush by the muzzle. Several ac cidents occurred while firearms were being loaded or unloaded. Four accidents involved pistols, six Involved .22 caliber rifles, and one involved a shotgun. Eight of the hunters shot them selves, and three shot other per sons. The game director urges all hunters to be careful and to fol low explicitly the ten command ments of firearms safety. A long hunting season is ahead. SEVENTH-DAY ADVENTIST Elder H. E. Preston Ph. 676-91152 Sabbath School, 9:30 a.m. Sut urday Worship Service, 11:00 a.m. FIRST CHRISTIAN CHURCH Don W.
