Rain Improves SUNRISE FRIDAY 3MWJEK0N Bucks Plentiful In Hills, Is Report Blacktail Bag Limit Is Cut to One Oregon's 1940 deer-hunting season opens at the crack of dawn Friday and will continue through October 25, and because of the rains of the past few days local nimrods are expecting one of the most successful inaugur als in years and years. "Perfect" was the word state police used in describing condi tions for stalking the elusive buck in the hills and dales, with the recent wet weather insuring sportsmen a big "break" as they hike out in search of fresh veni son. Already, according to local hunting headquarters, hundreds of persons are camped near the choice hunting grounds in Klam ath county, where they hope to bag big mule deer. The general exodus from Medford, for those in search of Columbian blacktail in this vicinity, will start later today and early tomorrow morn ing. Reports Indicate that there are an unusually large number of deer in the mountains around Medford, perhaps more than in any recent year. The Butte Falls, Applegate and Evans Creek dis tricts are said to be plentiful with blacktail, and reports from the coastal region are to the effect that more deer than ever before are awaiting the hunter's bullet. Action Legal The bag limit this year, on both the eastern Oregon mule deer and the Columbian black- tail, is one buck. Hunters for merly were allowed two black tail bucks, but the state game commission curtailed the limit. Legality of the hotly-contested action in cutting the blacktail limit was upheld by the attorney general, according to an Associ ated Press dispatch. The game commission declined to authorize another open season on antlerless deer or does, either in Grant, Klamath and Lake counties, but most of the re serves have been thrown open to hunting. These include Canyon Creek, Mule Deer, Myrtle Creek, Mount Emily, Ochoco, Steen's Mountain and Warner (outside of limits of federal reserve) re serves. Canyon Creek will be reserved for ' bow and arrow hunters for the first two weeks of the hunting season. General resident hunting licenses are S3 and non-resident hunting licenses are $15. 74 EMBRYO LAWYERS TAKE OATH TOMORROW Salem, Sept. !9.
