iGOVERNOR CHANGES iPAUPER'S BURIAL
11. SHORTENS
With Ciovernor Witliyeonibe in re
lation to the recent requests for the
elo-ing of the deer bunting season be
cause il' the danger of forest fires it
lias been a ease of "un ag'in, off
ag'in, Kinnegan,' for several days
int, but today he announced that he
would order the season closed from
August 21 to September 1 unless rain
fell in the meantime. Yesterday be
gave out the announcement that he
would not interfere in nnv way with
the regular season, which opens to
morrow mill continues until October
lfith.
The governor's latest edict now
brings about a rather mixed up state
of affairs for the hunters, sportsmen
and game wardens, niul means that
unless rain comes to their relief the
hunting season may only lust ten
days.
However, many hunters have al
ready gone out into the hills, to be
gone for the length of the deer hunt
ing season, and there is no way of
reaching them with the information
that the season may be closed from
August 21 to Sept. 1. And be
tween now'and August 21 many other
hunters will be out in inaccessible
places and will have no means of
knowing whether after August 21 Hie
season is open or closed.
The net result of this mixup will
nrobablv be that the hunters who are
in the hills won't give a hong whether
or not the season is closed and will
go on banging their guns and gath
ering in deer to the legal limit. And
now no end of trouble seems to be in
sight for the game wardens and
their deputies. In fact, it is doubt
ful if all the deputy game wardens
can be notified in time lo enforce the
governor's edict, if he issues one.
SALEM, Aug. 14. Governor
Withycombe announced today Jie
would close the Oregon deer hunting
senson from August 21 to September
1, unless rain falls before August 21,
to lessen danger of forest fires.
The season ordinarily runs from
August 15 to October 1").

i
Atho he was not a pauper, John
Peterson, who was killed while fight
ing a big forest fire in the Elk Creek
district last week when a big burning
tree fell on him, was buried this
morning at the expense of the county.
In the Medford cemetery without
ceremony of any kind at the expense
of the county.
All efforts of Acting Coroner Earl
Conkllng to locate relatives of Peter
son were without avail and but little
could be learned about him beyond
the fact that be had been engaged by
Forest Supervisor Erlckson's depart
ment to fight forest fires Just a few
days before his death, and had been
sent to work at the Elk Creek fire.
He had remarked to fellow workmen
that he once lived In Grants Pass.
Some money was found on Peter
son's body after bis. death and to
gether with money that was coming
to him from other work he had re
cently done and his several days' pay
due for fire-fighting, he left an estate
of about $50 cash. Yet this money is
being held for heirs that may be
found, instead of paying buriaj ex
penses. Peterson was about 50 years
old. -
