WEATHER By United Press Northern California Fair to day .tonight and Saturday. Local frost. Northwesterly wind 15-25 mph off coast except variable early this morning from Cape Mendocino north. ' (3333 fifi CAMPING NCNICING saSMBm) HUBBARD MAIN t RIVERSIDE signed by Josephine county sportsmen have been sent to the commission offices in Portland and to Gov. Douglas McKay at Salem charging that the state agency s new punch-card tag sys tem and the 10 fish limit will "ruin fishing in southern Ore gon. State fishing laws for 1990 specify that anglers take no more than ten zu-inch steelhead or salmon before August 18, Fishermen here contend this rule eliminates the angler who catches his limit in January from the spring run and from fishing in his home state streams for sal mon or steelhead until six and a half months after the Initial catch, Many of the amateur rod and reel enthusiasts are critical of the new tag system which re quires them to punch a score card ammediately after landing a fish, subject to a warning or fine if. the angler neglects to do so and is apprehended by a law enforcement officer. If the angler forgets to carry his punch card with his license; if he loses the special tags pro vided by the commission for marking freshly caught fish: or if he neglects to tag his catch properly, he is, local fishermen say, subject to arrest and may be reprimanded or fined by the fish and game warden south-central Alaska where every old sourdough was his friend. Was Boom Town Denali was a boom town when Campbell arrived there in the earlv 1920s. At the time, he was a husky prospector search ing for an Eldorado in this rip- roaring mining country, As the mines closed, the town declined until Campbell was the only white resident left, For more than 10 years, the post office served the area, but unally even uncle bam got wise and wiped Denali off the map. Campbell, in love with the re mote region, remained there searching for his eldorado win ter and summer. He had been in ailing health in recent years, but all attempts to convince him he should leave the crumbling cabins of Denali were in vain. Bush-Pilot Bert Rich, carry Ing supplies for the old prospec tor, located him in a cabin on Valdez creek. When Rich enter ed the cabin, he found Campbell lying dead on the floor, wearing heavy fur clothing, and his boots. His dog team lay dead outside starved to death. The only living creature in the cabin was a black sled dog which had been living on food it broke Into after its master died. A United States commissioner today was en route to Denali to hold an inquest and bring tne body back. Minister Who Married Windsors Succumbs Bedford, Eng., Mar. 10 (U.R) The Rev.

S. department of agriculture reported today. A March 7 blizzard was hard on livestock in North and South Dakota and Nebraska, the de partment said, but otherwise cat tle and sheep and western range lambs were in better shape than usual for this time of the year. Feed Situation Good The feed situation was good to very good in a large area stretch ing from northern Nebraska and central Wyoming to the border of Mexico, although some dry spots were reported in eastern Colorado, southwestern Kansas, northwestern Oklahoma and northwestern and West Texas, and in New Mexico. Range conditions were report ed fairly good in Wyoming, Utah and Nevada, and poor to fair in Montana, the Dakotas, Oregon, Washington and Idaho. Cattle in most of the great plains states were reported in good condition for winter months, but in Montana, North Dakota and Oregon they were only poor to fair. Texas renorted the condition of sheep In that state as of March l was me oesi in iv years, the sheep outlook generally was good except in Montana, Wash ington, Idaho, and Oregon, British Labor Draft Ends This Week-End London, Mar. 10 U.P.) Min ister of Labor George Isaacs announced in commons last night that Britain's labor draft would end this week-end, thus permit ting workers to take jobs of their choice. Isaacs said the draft would be ended because Britain's essen tial industries have had ample manpower for the past six months without use of the gov ernment's draft powers. The draft, known officially as the "control of engagement or der," originally was Installed during wartime. It permitted the government to shift workers from one Job to another. In August, 1947, the draft was relmposed to keep Britain's ex port industries fully manned, but it has seldom been used since then because of its unpopularity.
