" I just plain forgot to send mine in last spring The last thing on my mind in April was elk hunting I ought to have my butt k ic k e d ." Rumors o f a potentially inconvenient hunting or fishing regulation run faster through the sporting community than infidelity hearsay through a corporate-office lunchroom Now. in the midst o f elk season, the bu/z is that all game management units o f eastern Oregon w ill be restricted to limited entry elk hunting next year “ I know damn well it is ." one hunter told this outdoor reporter 'I read it right in the regulations " "W ro n g ." says Greg Hattan. O D FW D istrict W ild life Biologist from John Day "W e did mention in the regulations that there are three units that may go in (for limited entry status), but not all o f them And I would question whether those three units arc going to go in " Hattan said the Desolation. I ’kiah and Heppner units arc being considered for limited entry designation to bolster dangerously low bull to-cow elk ratios Not only does fewer mature bulls mean decreased opportunity for hunters, it jeopardizes future herd recruitment "T h e Ukiah and Heppner units have been logged so heavy, and there is so little cover and so many roads that there's just no hull s u rviva l," Hattan said " I f those two go. Desolation is almost surrounded by limited entry, and that would put more pressure on it than it could stand and bull ratios would go to heck there, too " Hattan said the department is hoping to work with the Forest Service to correct the problem, stating that if an aggressive road-closure program ian be effected, limited entry status tor the three units may not be necessary " I f I had to guevs right now. I'd say no more units w ill go in next year, and certainly not more than those th re e ." he offered in order for any unit to he changed to limned entry, the subject must first he proposed to and approved by the Oregon Fish and W ild life Com mission Hattan expressed strong doubts that the runs'red concept o f restric ting all hunt units to lim ited entry would he well received by the commission "They arc very reluctant to m l allow an opportunity to hunt somewhere, and that's understandable." Hattan said, "s o it's going to have to be real critical conditions before we go to total limited entry And w e 'll try every avenue we can to keep from doing that before taking that last step That's not to say it w on’t happen somewhere down the line, but it's not going to happen next year “ ooooooooooooooooooooooooool - w 989-8221 ■ im « iamm » imos « .« m rs - x x x m T O w m w L t m w M M !« •.,, ^ ^ t- 2* ■ r W H° ✓ I he Justice Court o lin e at the courthouse in Hcppncr reports handling tin- following business dm mg the past week M arvin Robert Padhcrg. 4 ' lone I vi exiling the Maximum Speed 7 t ntph in a 'S mph /one 5 9) line.
